SPEAKING PART 1

1. Please tell me about your family

I’m so happy when I can talk about my family. There are five people in my family: my
parents, two younger sisters, and me. My parents are farmers. They are so nice and
humorous. My sisters are students who study at secondary school. And I’m a second-
student at National economics university. I love my family very much and like to spend
time with them.

2. Please tell me about yourself

I would like to introduce myself. My full name is Nguyen Hong Ngoc. I'm a senior at
National Economics University. My major is Accounting. I’m very friendly and nice. In
my free time, I like hanging out with my friend. We go out to eat, go to the cinema, go
shopping or go to concert music and so on. In the future, I want to be an auditor because
it helps to build a solid ground about accounting, finance and improve my soft skills.

3. Tell me about your hometown/ the place that you live?/ Tell me about a famous
place in your country?

My hometown is Hanoi, which is the capital city of Vietnam. It is located in the north of
Vietnam. Hanoi is well-known for many tourist attractions such as West Lake or Sword
Lake. It also has so many delicious local cuisines, but the thing that I like the most is
Pho. Hanoi’s people are very friendly and open-minded.

4. Tell me the best way to travel around your country?

I’d say that the best way to travel in Vietnam is to go by motorbikes because it is really
convenient. The buses are a bit cheaper, but I don’t think that is such a comfortable way
to travel. Also, there is usually traffic congestion at rush hours, especially in big cities
like Hanoi or HCM City. Therefore, if you go by bus, you may be stuck on the streets for
hours. So then, motorbikes are really the best option, and of course, they give you the
most freedom when you are traveling.

5. Tell me about your friend(s)/ a member in your family

Most of my friends are about the same age as me because we met at high school.
Therefore, I can freely share my ideas, feelings, and thoughts with them. I have got one
or two friends who are older or younger that I met through work. I tend to meet up with
my friends at weekends and whenever we meet, we enjoy a lot of things together such as
shopping and watching movies at the theater.

6. What is the weather like today?/What is your favorite season?

Today the autumn weather is very wonderful with light wind and warm sunlight. The
temperature is about 22 degrees. I can go hang out with my friend and we can take a
beautiful photograph. I really love this weather, it makes me feel happy and helps me let
my hair down after a hard working-day.

7. Please tell me about one of your good memories

I have some great memories to share but the one I would like to describe is the day when
my parents gifted me a doll. I was just 12 years old when I got this beautiful Barbie
doll. I was so ecstatic because that doll was my dream, it was like a dream come true.
After receiving that sweet gift, I first went to see all of my friends to tell them about it.
Every day I used to wake up with my Barbie doll and dress it up with new clothes.

8. What do you like doing with your friends?/ What do you like doing in your free
time?/ What did you do last night/on the weekend?

In my free time, I would like to spend my time with my friends. We usually go out to
eat, go shopping, watch movies or sometimes go to a music concert. However, I’m very
keen on hanging out with my friends at a local coffee shop. We enjoy some drinks like
coffee or milk tea and share some exciting news with each other.

Last night (on the weekend), I went out with my friends. We went to the chinese
restaurant in the city center to have a meal. After that, we went to the mall together for
shopping and entertainment. My friends are really kind and open-minded. Hanging out
with them makes me happy and lets my hair down after a hard-working day. I love my
friends very much.
9. Please tell me about your first school?

To the best of my recollection, my school was located right in the middle of my

hometown. That’s why it only took me about 10 minutes to walk to school every single
day. Back in the days when I was still studying at primary school, this school had always
been my dream school because it looked incredibly beautiful. All the walls were painted
in multiple bright colors, which really made it stand out from the surrounding buildings.

10. Describe the room you are in?

I am in a quite big room which is about 40 square meters with white walls. This room is
equipped with 50 desks, 4 fans and 2 conditioners. Me and other candidates are taking
our exam on the computers. There are 3 supervisors who will help us in case something
goes wrong. The atmosphere in this room is quite stressful.

11 Describe your journey here today?

I am happy to tell you about my journey here today. I got up at 8am in the morning then
I had a shower and ate breakfast. Next, I took my car and picked up a friend of mine. We
both went to Foreign Trade University to take the aptis test. We have to drive because
we live in a small town which is 100 kilometers far from the city center.

12. Your typical day?

I usually wake up early every morning. I eat breakfast and then I go to school at 7 a.m. I
have classes from 7 a.m to 11 a.m. In the afternoon, I do my homework and play
badminton with my father and sister. In the evening, I sometimes hangout with my
friends, we usually go to the chinese restaurant to have meal

13. What are you wearing today?

Well I’m not really the fashionable type. Today I am wearing casual clothes: a white
shirt and blue jeans. It’s really simple and comfortable. Besides, I wear black glasses and
a pair of beautiful and long earrings. I also wear a headband because I need to keep my
hair from falling into my face.

14. When do you feel tired?

When I have to work hard and don't get enough sleep, I feel exhausted. Especially
during the time when I had to do my graduation thesis and study for the English exam at
the same time, I always felt tired both physically and mentally.

15. Describe a typical Vietnamese meal

Often, on the table of the typical Vietnamese family meal is the common Vietnamese
food such as fluffy rice, pork, egg, and vegetables. Besides, the other favored dishes are
fish soup, vegetable pickles, boiled or stir-fried vegetables, stewed pork, slices of meat
or fried egg, etc. Due to the living conditions and budgets of each family, the quality of
the family meal varies.

PART 2

Tả tranh và trả lời 2 câu hỏi liên quan.

1. Tranh 1 nhóm bạn đang ngồi ăn trong quán

 Describe the picture

In the photo, I can see a group of friends sitting at the same table and eating in a
restaurant. It's a very beautiful place with lots of trees around. There are 2 men and 2
women, they are wearing different colored shirts. They are enjoying their food while
smiling and talking to each other, it looks like they are talking about something very
funny. Looking at the background of the picture, I can tell that this is a fast food
restaurant or a cake restaurant. They all look happy and full of energy.

 Why do people like eating out with friends?

People are keen on eating out because it is one of the great ways to spend the time and it
is fun and enjoyable activity. Besides, people like to share food with family and friends.
Actually, eating out has become one of the most popular ways of recreation. It is a time
to be out, see people and meet people. You can enjoy the delicious food that you usually
do not cook at home while smiling and talking with your friends about some fun stories.
I think that’s why people are into eating out.

 Please talk about the last time you ate with friends?

The last time I ate with my friends was last night. Me and my group of friends went to a
Chinese restaurant in the city center. The purpose we went to eat was to celebrate a
friend of mine who passed his English test that morning. We enjoyed our meal a lot
while smiling and talking about the beautiful memories of our life. The restaurant had a
homely atmosphere and soft music that made me comfortable and helped me let my hair
down after a working day.

2. Đề gia đình trên ô tô

  Describe this picture

As can be seen in this picture, there is a family in a car. There is a mother, a father, their
3 kids and they are all fastening their seat belts. The father in a red shirt is driving.
Sitting next to him is the mother, she is smiling happily. Their children are sitting in the
back seat. I think they are going to take a trip to somewhere far away from their home
during holidays or weekends. By going on road trips, they can spend time together,
which strengthens the family relationships. Everyone look happy and I can tell they’re
having a great family road trip together

 Tell me the last time you traveled in a car?

The last time I traveled by car was yesterday. I drove to HaLong city with my family,
which is a coastal city in the north of Vietnam. It took us about 2 hours to get there and
we had so many opportunities to experience the picturesque scenery along our way. We
even pulled over several times to enjoy the gorgeous scenery and take some beautiful
photos. I think that was one of the best experiences that I have ever had.

 How can people overcome the time of a long journey?

There are so many ways to help people pass the time on a long journey and create more
memorable travel experiences. I think the most common one is that we can listen to our
favorite music or read a book to kill time. If you don’t have the concentration to read
books, then you should watch a film or TV series instead. Playing a fun game is also one
of the best ways to make the time pass faster. In addition, carrying some snacks is also
extremely popular, in case they feel hungry.

3. Màn hình smart TV, điều khiển đang chọn kênh

 Describe this picture

In this picture, I see a right hand holding a black remote facing the TV screen with many
channels on the screen. There are many different channels on the screen such as music,
sports, boxing, animation... I guess he/she is clicking and choosing the show he/she
wants to watch. I can't guess if it's a woman or a man choosing a channel because I can
only see the hand with the TV remote. Maybe he or she is in the living room because
there is a white table and the desk shelf under the TV. It seems to be a smart TV because
there are play, pause,stop, next, previous.

 How often do you watch films or programmes at home? Why?

Well, I’m keen on watching TV because it is one of my favorite activities. I often watch
films or programs at home in my spare time like the evening on the weekend with my
family. We are into watching comedy TV programs or action movies because we want to
enjoy the fun of family weekends. Sometimes I watch a football game with my father on
the weekend. Watching movies not only helps me let my hair down after a hard-working
day but also makes me happy and expands my horizons. I think watching TV is very
interesting.

 Which is better for learning, watching video or reading? Why?

Personally, I prefer watching videos to reading books. The graphics in the videos attract
me and help me understand better. Besides, watching videos is extremely suitable for
introductions to difficult topics, especially something unfamiliar. Furthermore, watching
a video takes me less time than reading a book with the same content. Moreover,
learning through a video can make us feel more comfortable and relaxed than reading. It
not only expands my horizons but also helps me let my hair down after a hard working
day. But if you combine these two methods you can learn the best.

4. Người đàn ông nằm trên sofa xem TV

 Describe this picture

Well, in the picture, I can see a man watching TV. He is lying on the sofa. It must have
been his relaxing time after a hard day. He is wearing his nightwear and I can see the
comfort on his face. Perhaps he is watching his favorite TV programs. I guess it may be
a soccer match, a fashion show, a music concert or something like that. It is so great for
us to have leisure time after long working hours, right? So don’t forget to take your time
to refresh your mind and prepare well for a new day.

 Do you often watch TV?

  Why is free time important?

5. 3 người nằm trên cỏ đọc sách

 Describe:

In this picture, I can see three people. I guess they are members of a family including
father, mom and daughter. They are lying down on grass and reading a book. The girl is
about 6-8 years old. They seem to be very happy to read the book together. Based on the
background, maybe the picture is taken in a park. It seems that they are enjoying their
free time.

 Bạn thường đọc gì?

Some kinds of books that I would prefer to read are romance novels, history books or
science fiction books. During the holiday, science fiction is my favorite choice, such as
exploring time travel, space travel, and future scientific and technological advances. I
can sit and read these books for hours without getting bored, it not only expands my
horizons and improves my mental health but also helps me to let my hair down after a
hard working day.

 Tại sao đọc sách lại quan trọng đối với trẻ em?

I suppose that reading brings many benefits to children, especially for children’s
thinking and perception. Reading allows them to develop a better imagination and get
more life information. When you start reading aloud to your child, you are basically
giving them background information about the world, which helps them make sense of
what they see, hear and read. In addition, I think reading is also good for children’s
health because it helps them limit their exposure to electronic devices.

6. Tranh mẹ cõng con

 Tả tranh mẹ cõng con

Looking at this picture, I see a mother and her child and the mother is carrying her child.
They are looking very cheerful and full of energy. I guess that they are at the zoo or the
park. Looking at the background, I can see a lot of trees and mountains. I see that the
weather is very beautiful and lovely.

 When was the last time you visited a new place?

The last time I explored a new place was about a month ago. I visited a charming little
town in the countryside. The main square was surrounded by quaint cafes and historic
buildings, creating a picturesque setting. I spent the day wandering through cobblestone
streets, discovering local shops, and indulging in regional cuisine. The highlight was
stumbling upon a hidden garden with vibrant flowers and a peaceful atmosphere. It was
a refreshing experience, and I enjoyed the blend of history, culture, and nature in that
new locale. Exploring unfamiliar places always brings a sense of adventure and
discovery.

 Why do people like to go to new places?

People are drawn to new places for various reasons. The desire for adventure and
exploration motivates individuals to discover different cultures, landscapes, and
cuisines. Traveling to unfamiliar destinations provides a break from routine, fostering
personal growth and creating lasting memories. It satisfies the innate curiosity to learn
and experience new things. Whether it's the thrill of discovery, relaxation in a novel
environment, or the chance to broaden one's perspectives, the allure of new places lies in
the diverse and enriching experiences they offer.

7. 2 vợ chồng dọn nhà

 In this photo, I see a man and a woman in an apartment or a living room, where
there are many storage boxes surrounding them. The couple is doing the
housework. The man in white T-shirt and blue jeans is sweeping the floor. He
seems to be happy to do that. The woman is collecting some bottles of beer and
putting them in a plastic bag. She looks so tired and uncomfortable.
In the background of the picture, there’s a gray sofa and a white bookshelf. Their room
looks quite messy and untidy, I guess they had a party at their house the day before and
now they have to clean up the house and rearrange everything.

 The last time I did physical work was about a month ago. It's Tet. Everyone has a
custom of cleaning the house before the Tet festival and so does my family. I had
to sweep and clean 2 floors and besides, my mother and I had to clean and
rearrange the cupboard, bookshelves and 2 wardrobes. The last days of the year
are always the busiest, when everything had to be completed and the house also
needed decorating. Although those are very tiring and heavy tasks, I found that
they helped to strengthen the bonds between family members because we could
create many unforgettable times with each other.

 In my opinion, I don't think that machines can replace humans. Although many
labor-saving devices have proved to be very useful in helping us save time and
effort when doing housework such as washing the dishes, doing the laundry or
vacuuming, I still believe that only humans can do non-standardized tasks. Robots
are good at repetitive tasks but lousy at dealing with varied and unique situations.
Machines make human skills more important. So, rather than undermining
humans, we are much better off thinking hard about how to up skill ourselves and
learn how to work.

8. Nhóm người trong phòng họp

 Describe
Looking at the picture, I can see 4 people, including 2 men and 2 women discussing with
each other in an office. There is a man in a gray vest, standing and pointing at a white
board. The walls are all painted white. On the table, there are many cups of tea and
coffee and some laptops as well. They all seem to be very concentrated, energetic and
enthusiastic about their job. I guess this is a big and important project

 Tell us about the time you give a presentation. How did you feel?

The last time I spoke in public was when I had to make a presentation about the benefits
of nature. It was a project which was held by my club with the aim of raising public
awareness about the environment and the measures to protect our nature. At first I was
extremely nervous and scared. However I made sure that I knew what I wanted to say
and I became more confident. I felt happy that I overcame my fear.

 Why are people scared of public speaking?

There are many reasons why people become afraid when having to speak in public. First
of all, public speaking is an art that requires lots of courage, confidence and will-power.
Most people lack this skill because of its challenging type of nature. Besides, people are
afraid of public speaking because the look of a lot of people may make them feel shy
and unable to express their feelings and their thoughts.

11. Cô gái ngồi trên du thuyền, ngắm cảnh biển

  Describe the picture

This picture feels so dreamy. A girl is chilling on a yacht, soaking in the view of the
open sea. She’s probably feeling the cool breeze in her hair while watching the waves
sparkle under the sun. The vibe is super calm, like she’s just enjoying a peaceful
moment far away from all the noise. Behind her, the ocean stretches endlessly, blending
into the horizon where the sky shows off some gorgeous colors. It’s the kind of scene
that makes you wanna be there too.

 Tell us the last time you went to the sea?

Honestly, I haven’t “gone” to the sea myself since I’m just your AI buddy, but if I could,
I’d totally hit the beach whenever life feels too crazy. I’d imagine standing barefoot in
the sand, feeling the waves tickle my feet, and just zoning out to the sound of the ocean.
It’d be the perfect way to recharge. Maybe someday you can share your beach
adventures with me—sounds like fun!

 Why do some people dislike going to the sea?

Not everyone’s into the sea, and that’s okay. Some people hate dealing with sticky sand
getting everywhere, or they just can’t handle the salty water stinging their skin. Then
there’s the fear factor—deep water and the idea of sharks freak some folks out. And let’s
not forget the sunburns—ouch! For others, the sea might feel too quiet or even boring.
Everyone vibes differently, and while some love the ocean’s

13. 1 người đàn ông mặc vest đứng ở tàu

 Describe the picture.

There’s a guy standing confidently on a ship, rocking a sharp suit that screams elegance
and style. Maybe he’s a businessman, or perhaps he’s just someone who knows how to
enjoy life luxuriously. He’s got this cool, composed vibe, with one hand casually resting
on the railing as he gazes out at the open sea. The sunlight reflects off the water, creating
a crisp and clean backdrop that makes him look even more refined. It’s like a scene
straight out of a movie or a luxury lifestyle ad—total power vibes!

 Tell me about the last time you used public transport

The last time I used public transport was just a few days ago. I took the metro to meet a
friend in the city. It was a pretty smooth ride, actually. The train was fairly crowded, but
it was still faster than driving because I didn’t have to deal with traffic or finding
parking. Plus, it was nice not having to worry about the stress of navigating through the
city, so I just put on some music and relaxed. I actually enjoy using public transport
when it’s easy and convenient!
  How can we increase the number of people using public transport?

To get more people using public transport, we could make it more convenient and
reliable. This means better schedules, faster routes, and more frequent services. Also,
making it cheaper or offering discounts might encourage people who usually drive to
switch. Lastly, improving the overall experience—like cleaner buses, better seats, and
free Wi-Fi—could make a big difference!

14. Rạp chiếu phim

 Describe the picture

Looking at this picture I can see that there are many people. They wear basic clothes and
they know how to combine clothes to create the most beautiful outfits. They were
laughing and talking happily so I guess they were friends. Looking at the background I
can see soft drinks, popcorn and sofas so they are in a movie theater. It reminds me of a
memory with my friend when we were in college. This picture is very beautiful and I
think it was taken by a professional photographer.

 Tell me about a time you laughed a lot.

One time I laughed so much was during a camping trip with some friends. We were
sitting around the campfire, telling stories, and someone started doing impressions of
famous celebrities, but in the most random situations. At one point, they did a dramatic
reading of a cereal box as if it was Shakespeare, and we all lost it. We couldn't stop
laughing for like 20 minutes, even though it was just so silly.

 Do you think people from different countries laugh at different things?

Yeah, I definitely think people from different countries laugh at different things. Humor
is so tied to culture and language. For example, in some cultures, wordplay and puns are
huge, while in others, physical comedy or sarcasm might be more appreciated. Plus, the
way people view social norms and taboos can change what’s considered funny, so a joke
that works in one place might totally miss the mark in another.

  How do people learn to cook in your culture

Most people learn cooking from family—parents or grandparents are the first teachers.
They pass down traditional recipes, and it’s usually a mix of watching, helping out, and
eventually doing it yourself. Some learn by trial and error, experimenting with food at
home. Nowadays, cooking shows, YouTube tutorials, and food blogs are super popular
ways to pick up new skills or explore different cuisines. Schools sometimes offer
cooking classes, too. It’s a blend of tradition, curiosity, and adapting to modern
resources.

 Why is it important for people to learn how to cook for themselves?

Knowing how to cook is such a key life skill. It helps you eat healthier, save money, and
control what goes into your meals. Cooking gives you independence—you don’t have to
rely on takeout or someone else to feed you. Plus, it’s creative and satisfying to make
something with your own hands. It’s also great for connecting with others; cooking for
family or friends can be a way to bond and show love. And let’s be real, being able to

Many people dislike crowded places because they feel overwhelmed by the noise, the

One time I received a really thoughtful gift was for my birthday last year. A close friend
gave me a handmade journal because they knew I loved writing and wanted to

communication. It’s not just about the words but the effort and intention behind them.

atmosphere is lively, with a mix of people enjoying the vibrant energy of the area. The
women seem relaxed, chatting with each other as they stroll, soaking in the urban buzz.

 Tell me the last time you went shopping?

I don't shop myself, but for many people, shopping is an enjoyable and social
experience. Whether it's for clothes, groceries, or just browsing, shopping can be a way
to unwind or treat yourself. Some people go shopping regularly as part of their routine,
while others might go on special trips for a specific occasion. Shopping with friends or

The picture depicts a young couple standing before a shop window, deeply engaged in a

her shoulders, is elegantly dressed in a pink vest while carrying several shopping bags.
It's evident they've just completed a shopping excursion.

 Tell me about the last time you went shopping?

It was yesterday. For me, shopping is a way to find something new, whether it’s clothes,
gadgets, or groceries. It's often a mix of excitement as you discover great deals and the
occasional decision fatigue as you try to choose between options. Whether it's an
exciting shopping spree or just picking up a few essentials, it’s always nice to find what
you're looking for.

Shopping with friends is fun for several reasons! First, it’s a social activity that lets you

experience more enjoyable. Plus, friends help each other make decisions, whether it’s

about enjoying the time spent together.

35. 2 bố con ăn sáng

  Describe the picture

Looking at this picture I see a man and his child.

They are wearing basic clothes and they know how to combine clothes to create the
most beautiful outfits. It looked like they were having breakfast and they looked very
close so I guess they were family. Looking at the background they are sitting in front of
a refrigerator so they could be sitting in the kitchen. It reminds me of a memory with my
dad 3 years ago. This painting is very beautiful and I think it was taken by a
professional.

 What do you usually eat for breakfast?

For breakfast, I usually go for something quick but filling. A typical morning might start
with toast topped with peanut butter and banana, or sometimes a bowl of oatmeal with
some fruit and nuts. If I’m in a hurry, a smoothie with spinach, berries, and protein
powder is my go-to. I try to get a mix of protein, healthy fats, and carbs to keep me
energized.

 Is it important to eat a good breakfast? Why?

As for whether it's important to eat a good breakfast, I’d say absolutely! It’s one of the
best ways to jumpstart your day. Breakfast helps replenish the body’s energy stores after
hours of sleep, and it gives you the fuel you need to focus and be productive, especially
in the morning. It also helps regulate your metabolism and keeps you from feeling super
hungry later, which can lead to overeating or making less healthy choices. A solid
breakfast can really set the tone for the rest of the day.

1. Tranh 1 người nhìn máy bay + 1 người đứng đợi tàu

  Describe 2 pictures

Both of the pictures depict the means of transport.

In the first picture, I can see that there is a man sitting next to his luggage suitcase. He's
wearing a very polite suit, I guess he's a businessman or something like that. To be more
specific, he was standing at the airport and watching the plane go up in the sky.

In the second picture, there is a man wearing a denim jacket and a red backpack. He is
waiting for the train to arrive. I guess he's about to take the train to his hometown to visit
his parents. Looking at the background I can tell that it’s a nice weather

 Why do people prefer to go by plane than by train?

From my perspective, each mean of transport has its own advantages, airplanes are not
an exception. When compared to the train, the plane is considered to be a faster and
more convenient means of travel. Wherever you want to go or need to go suddenly,
especially abroad, the plane is a perfect choice as it will take you to the place you want
in the fastest and simplest way. Besides, flying is one of the safest ways to travel, you
can stay safe in the knowledge that your plane has been checked, double checked, and
checked once more before you even step on board.

 Why does flying make many people feel uncomfortable?

Some people have gradually become uncomfortable flying, such as me. I know some
people think flying is one of the most exciting and magical things, but I personally am
not a fan. FMP, maybe there are 4 main reasons that make many people feel
uncomfortable when they’re flying. These are: remembering a bad flight, hearing scary
stories about flying, taking a flight while feeling nervous, or traveling during a
personally stressful phase in their life. Besides, it's extremely bad if your flight is
delayed, which happens quite often in the airline industry.

father wears a ... shirt and the son wears a .. shirt. The boy seems very happy
because maybe it's the first time he saw a horse. looking at the background of the
photo, I guess this place is the park and they are enjoying their day off to hang
out.

3 Looking in the second picture, I can tell that this is a teacher with her students.
The teacher wears a ...shirt and she is guiding the kids to learn and play with the
snake on the table. The kids look excited and happy.

 Do you like interacting with animals?

I don't interact with animals myself, but I know that many people enjoy spending time
with them! Animals offer companionship, comfort, and can even be therapeutic.
Whether it’s playing with a dog, watching birds, or observing wildlife, interacting with
animals can help reduce stress and create positive emotions. Animals often show
affection and loyalty, which can make people feel valued and loved. I think the bond
between humans and animals is special, and it’s wonderful to see how much joy animals
bring to people’s lives.

 Should children be exposed to animals?

From my perspective, I see eye to eye with the exposure of children to animals from a
young age. Having a pet has various benefits for children. According to a survey,
children who developed the closest attachments or strong bonds to their pets didn't have
the rates of anxiety and depression. Furthermore, caring for their furry friends, such as
taking them for a walk, feeding them and grooming them teaches the children to be
responsible not only towards other animals but also with people.

3. Đề xe đạp + chèo thuyền

 Describe:

Looking at the 2 pictures, there are 2 types of sports including individual sports and
team sports. As I can see, the first picture shows a rowing team. It looks like they are
facing a strong wave from the river because the athletes are pulling as hard as they can.
They are wearing life jackets and the competition seems dangerous. On the other hand,
in the second picture, I can see a male athlete in a bike jersey and helmet. It looks like
he is taking part in a competitive road cycling which is held on paved roads with a lot
of trees around.

 What are the difficulties of these 2 sports?

Each sport has its own challenge. As for racing bikes, the first difficulty is that it has a
risk of injury. Besides, racing bikes is a sport that requires keeping the pace and
understanding how to handle unexpected situations. Regarding the rowing race, I think
the hardest part is the co-operation and the ability to tolerate bad weather conditions.
Therefore, it is not only physically demanding but mentally exhausting as well.

 Why do some people prefer team sports to individual sports?

From my perspective, people who choose to play team sports often receive support from
their team members, so it suits best for people who are outgoing, extroverted and
sociable. They find themselves most enjoyable while interacting and cooperating with
others to achieve the goal. Moreover, team sports teach their players valuable life
lessons that they could not learn from individual sports. For example, team sports teach
people about leadership which is one of the most important skills nowadays.

  Describe: Both of the photos depict two different ways of traveling. In the first
picture, I can see a man wearing …T-shirts, … pants, and a backpack. In front of
him are valleys and wild grasslands. I guess he is traveling alone and his journey
is wild travel. Meanwhile, in the second picture, there is a young couple walking
on the street. The man wears…., while the woman wears….. They are holding
suitcases. I guess they are traveling in a city because I can see an ancient building.
Maybe they are spending time relaxing on their days off.

 What are the benefits of these 2 ways of traveling?

I think people choose these types of traveling according to their hobbies,

demands and situations. Young people who are passionate about exploring

nature and enjoying themselves would prefer to travel alone. Because they will have
more time to focus on their own experience rather than on others. On the

contrary, someone who wants to have the opportunity to have fun and create memories
with family or friends will choose to travel in groups.

 Which one do you like better?

For me, I prefer traveling in groups to going alone for some reasons. First of all, I am
not good at determining directions and reading maps, so I get lost frequently. Therefore,
I need fellow travelers to help me stay on the right track in the journeys. Moreover, I
also love the lively and entertaining atmosphere when there are a lot of people
participating. On holiday, I normally have trips with family or a team of friends. We
spend time enjoying the moments and making memories.

 Describe: Both of the 2 pictures depict the ways of shopping nowadays. In the
first picture, I can see a family buying some food at the supermarket. There is a
father, a mother and their child. They seem to be very happy and comfortable. I
guess they are used to shopping at the supermarket. Meanwhile, in the second
picture, there is a woman who is selling strawberries. She is wearing ... Looking at
the background I can guess that this is a normal market.
  Benefits of markets and supermarkets?

From my perspective, both ways of shopping have their advantages. First of all, when
you buy food at the market, you can save money because the food at the market is
usually cheaper than at the supermarket. Besides, you'll have access to food with fewer,
if not, chemical-free foods. About the supermarket, it can maintain a large variety of all
the goods and thus, help customers in the selection of best goods. Moreover, at the
supermarkets, customers can feel freer, more comfortable because they choose and carry
products themselves.

 Why do many people not like shopping?

I think there are several reasons that some people hate shopping. Firstly, shopping takes
time, some people think it's not worth spending their precious time shopping. Secondly,
the fact that shopping encourages us to buy things that we do not need or use cannot be
denied. This can lead to debts. And finally, people tend to invest more money in
experiences than shopping. That is my opinion about this situation.

6. Tranh du lịch thành phố + du lịch vùng núi

 Describe
The first picture shows a bustling city with modern skyscrapers, busy streets, and people
walking or driving. There are iconic landmarks, perhaps a famous monument, a park, or
a shopping district. The scene feels energetic, with lights, stores, and crowds, capturing
the fast-paced vibe of urban life. The second picture depicts a serene mountain
landscape. There are rolling green hills, rocky peaks, and clear blue skies. A few hikers
can be seen enjoying the tranquility, surrounded by nature’s beauty. The mountains are
vast and peaceful, offering a sharp contrast to the busy city scene. It’s calm, fresh, and
full of natural wonders.

 What do you think of these two ways of travelling?

Both city and mountain travel offer unique experiences. City travel is vibrant and full of
life, perfect for those who love culture, shopping, and exploring new urban
environments. On the other hand, mountain travel offers a peaceful escape, ideal for
nature lovers, hikers, and those seeking solitude and adventure in the great outdoors. It
all depends on whether you want to immerse yourself in a fast-paced, cultural
environment or relax and recharge amidst nature.

 Advantages and disadvantages of these 2 ways of travelling?

City travel offers the convenience of modern amenities, abundant attractions, and the
chance to explore diverse cultures. You can visit museums, dine in famous restaurants,
and enjoy vibrant nightlife. However, it can be crowded, noisy, and expensive,
especially in tourist hotspots. Mountain travel, on the other hand, offers breathtaking
views, fresh air, and peaceful surroundings, perfect for outdoor activities like hiking and
camping. The downside is that it can be remote, with fewer amenities and services, and
physical exertion may be required for some activities. Each has its pros and cons,
depending on what type of experience you’re looking for.

7. Tranh nhiều người trên xe bus + 1 người mở cửa vào ô tô

  In the first picture, I see a lot of people standing around an old white Bus,
underneath there are puddles and a man is standing on top of the bus to take
things off. I guess all of them have just finished a long journey and are waiting to
get their things down to return home.

Compared to the first picture, the second picture depicts a man in a white shirt and blue
jeans. He is opening the door of a red car to get into the car. I think he is about to move
somewhere else, maybe work. Through the two pictures, I think the people in the first
picture have a poorer life than the man in the second picture.

 I think these types of vehicles are suitable for each person's demand and financial
situation.

People who have a limited budget and have to travel frequently will prefer public
transportation such as bus, coach and train. It costs them a cheap fee and is quite
convenient. But sometimes, it is crowded and noisy, which makes people feel
uncomfortable. On the contrary, personal vehicles like cars can provide users with
comfort, privacy and safety. Furthermore, they can have control over their time to travel.

 Many people choose to have their own car because with your own car, you'll
enjoy the convenience of being able to travel anywhere you want, any time you
want. Part of owning your car is enjoying the convenience but also experiencing
your own freedom. And you can also save time in the long run. When you don't
have to spend time waiting for a bus, a train, or ride-share system, you can leave
work or your home whenever you want.

8. Ăn ở nhà + ăn nhà hàng

 Looking at the 2 pictures, there are couples who are about to eat their meal but in
2 different places. In the first picture, there seems to be a couple cooking a meal
with each other. They are holding a tray with freshly baked bread on it.
Meanwhile, the second picture shows another couple making an order in a
restaurant. They are looking carefully at the menu to look for their desired dishes.
The restaurant is very luxurious I think.

 Eating at different places is very appealing. We can enjoy eating many different
scrumptious and mouth-watering foods in different ways of cooking. Moreover,
 we can also enjoy the great services instead of having to cook in the kitchen and
wash the dishes on our own. Furthermore, eating at different places is very
convenient for me and it helps me let my hair down after a hard working day
while enjoying a delicious meal.

9. Tranh 1 người viết thư + 1 cô đánh máy email

 Tả 2 tranh

In the first picture, a person is sitting at a desk, focused on writing a letter by hand. The
desk is likely filled with paper, a pen, and an envelope, creating a calm and traditional
atmosphere. The person appears to be carefully writing, taking their time with each
word. In the second picture, a woman is seated in front of a computer, typing an email.
The screen is likely displaying a draft of her message, and she seems to be typing
quickly, possibly multitasking in a modern, digital environment.

 Do You Prefer Handwriting or Typing?

Personally, I don't have preferences, but many people enjoy handwriting because it feels
more personal and thoughtful. It can be a meaningful gesture, especially for special
occasions like writing a letter to a friend or loved one. On the other hand, typing is faster
and more convenient, especially for everyday communication, allowing people to send
messages instantly. Both methods have their charm depending on the context and the
intent behind the message.

 Which One is More Convenient?

Typing is generally more convenient because it’s faster, especially when sending
messages over email or online. It allows people to quickly revise and send information,
making it ideal for work or daily communication. Handwriting, while more personal and
meaningful, takes more time and effort, especially for longer letters. However, for
moments that require extra care or a personal touch, handwriting might still be the
preferred choice.
10. Tranh gia đình đang cổ vũ bóng đá ở sân vận động + tranh nhóm người xem
hòa nhạc

 Tả 2 tranh

In the first picture, a family is sitting together in a stadium, cheering for their favorite
football team. The atmosphere is full of energy as the crowd around them is also excited,
waving flags and shouting in support. The family members seem to be enjoying the
game, wearing team jerseys and sharing the thrill of the match. In the second picture, a
group of people is attending a concert, likely enjoying live music. The crowd is focused
on the performers, with some people swaying to the rhythm, while others are taking
pictures. The lighting and stage setup create a lively and engaging environment.

 Which Activity Do You Prefer?

Personally, I don't have preferences, but both activities offer unique experiences.
Football games provide excitement, a sense of community, and the thrill of competition,
while concerts offer a more personal connection to music and the energy of live
performances. The choice depends on whether you enjoy the adrenaline of a sports event
or the connection of enjoying music in a crowd.

 Which Activity Attracts Young People More?

Both activities are popular among young people, but concerts might have a slight edge
in recent years, especially with the rise of music festivals and live performances by
famous artists. Young people often enjoy the lively atmosphere, social aspect, and the
chance to connect with others who share the same music interests. However, football
matches also attract a huge young audience, especially in countries where sports are a
major part of the culture. Ultimately, the attraction depends on individual preferences for
sports or music.

11. Tranh vài người leo núi + tranh ở biển 0 người, có vài cây dừa xung quanh
  Describe 2 pictures

In the first picture, a group of people is climbing a mountain, with rugged terrain and
rocky peaks in the background. The climbers are dressed in outdoor gear, focused on
their journey as they make their way up the challenging slope. The surrounding
landscape is breathtaking, with vast views of nature and perhaps some distant valleys or
forests.

In the second picture, there is a serene beach with no people in sight. The beach is calm
and peaceful, with gentle waves lapping the shore. Several palm trees stand tall along
the coastline, swaying in the breeze. The clear blue sky and the sparkling ocean create a
tranquil atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and nature lovers.

 What is the attraction of those 2 places?

The mountain offers adventure, excitement, and a chance to connect with nature in a
more challenging and rugged way. It attracts those who enjoy hiking, rock climbing, and
the satisfaction of reaching a peak while surrounded by breathtaking views. On the other
hand, the beach offers a peaceful retreat with its beautiful scenery, calm waters, and a
relaxing environment, making it perfect for those who want to unwind, swim, or simply
enjoy the natural beauty of the coastline.

 How to protect the natural beauty of those places?

To protect the natural beauty of both mountains and beaches, it’s important to practice
responsible tourism. This includes not littering, avoiding damage to plants and wildlife,
and sticking to marked trails in the mountains to prevent soil erosion. For beaches, it’s
essential to keep the area clean, avoid disturbing marine life, and reduce plastic waste.
Supporting sustainable practices, such as eco-friendly travel options and conservation
efforts, can also help preserve these natural landscapes for future generations.

12. 1 người đàn ông tập gym/ 2 người phụ nữ leo núi

 Tả 2 tranh

In the first picture, a man is working out at a gym, lifting weights. His focus and
determination are visible as he performs strength training, using gym equipment
designed for building muscle. The gym is filled with various machines and weights,
creating an energetic atmosphere.

In the second picture, two women are climbing a mountain. They are wearing outdoor
gear, carefully navigating the rocky terrain. The landscape around them is vast and
natural, with beautiful views of the mountains. The women seem to be enjoying the
physical challenge of the climb, working together as they ascend the peak.

 What Is the Difference Between These Two Types of Exercise?

The main difference between gym workouts and mountain climbing is the type of
physical activity involved. Gym workouts, like weightlifting, focus on building muscle
strength and improving endurance through controlled movements and equipment. It’s
typically done indoors and focuses on specific muscle groups. On the other hand,
mountain climbing is an outdoor, full-body workout that requires cardiovascular
endurance, balance, and strength, with the added challenge of navigating unpredictable
terrain. While gym workouts can be more targeted, mountain climbing offers a more
holistic and adventurous physical experience.

 How Important Is Regular Exercise?

Regular exercise is crucial for maintaining overall health and well-being. It helps
strengthen the heart, muscles, and bones, and improves flexibility and endurance.
Consistent physical activity also boosts mental health by reducing stress and anxiety,
improving mood, and promoting better sleep. Whether it’s through gym workouts or
outdoor activities like hiking or climbing, exercise contributes to a longer, healthier life
by reducing the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.

13. Tranh 2 công nhân đeo đèn trên đầu và tranh đầu bếp cầm đĩa thức ăn vui vẻ
  Describe

 What is your opinion about these 2 jobs?

 Which job do you think is more interesting?

 In the first picture I can see two men cooking in the kitchen. They are wearing
cooking uniforms. Moreover, they are wearing hats. I think they work at the hotel.
The food looks delicious. One man is smiling. They look so happy.

In the second picture I also can see two men. I guess they are workers. They are wearing
helmets with flashlights in front of them. In my opinion, this work is harder than the
work in the first picture

 I think in the first picture it's a comfortable place to work. They have no pressure.
But they need meticulousness. If they work at a five star hotel, they will get a high
salary.

In the second picture, they work so hard. They leave early in the morning and come back
when the sun goes down. They would have to focus very carefully. It might be stressful.
  I think chefs would be more fun to do. I can cook many delicious dishes.
Furthermore, I can not only decorate but also create the dishes. On the weekends
or holidays, I will cook for my family. I feel happy and joyful. Cooking dishes
makes me reduce stress.

14. Tranh thành phố ven biển + ngôi nhà trên núi

 Describe

The first picture shows a vibrant coastal city, where the skyline is filled with tall
buildings and the ocean stretches into the horizon. The beach is nearby, with people
enjoying the sun and water. The city appears to be bustling, with streets full of life and
activity, creating a lively atmosphere. The combination of urban life and the beautiful
ocean view makes the city a popular spot for both relaxation and excitement.

In the second picture, there is a tranquil house nestled on a mountain, surrounded by

lush greenery and rugged terrain. The house looks isolated, offering a peaceful retreat
away from the busy city life. The mountain provides breathtaking views of the valley or
forest below, and the atmosphere is calm, natural, and serene.

 Which place do you prefer?

Personally, I think it depends on the kind of experience you seek. If you enjoy a fast-
paced lifestyle with lots of activities, restaurants, and the beach, the coastal city would
be a great choice. The dynamic environment offers convenience, entertainment, and
access to the sea. However, if you’re looking for tranquility, fresh air, and beautiful
natural landscapes, the house on the mountain would be the ideal choice for a peaceful
escape and a connection to nature.

 Where is suitable for children?

The coastal city is likely more suitable for children, as it provides a variety of activities
such as beach trips, parks, museums, and family-friendly attractions. Children can enjoy
playing in the sand, swimming, or exploring the city. On the other hand, while the
mountain house offers a peaceful environment, it might not have as many child-specific
activities unless the children enjoy outdoor adventures like hiking, which may require
more supervision and preparation.

15. Âm nhạc hiện đại + âm nhạc cổ điển

  describe

The first picture shows a lively concert scene where a crowd of people is gathered to
listen to live music. The stage is brightly lit, with performers playing instruments and
singing, while the audience is fully engaged, enjoying the energetic atmosphere of the
live performance. The sounds of the music fill the air, creating a shared experience of
excitement and connection.

The second picture shows a person playing the piano at home, with a calm, focused
expression. The setting is quiet, perhaps with soft lighting and a cozy atmosphere. The
person is alone, absorbed in the music, playing classical or modern pieces with skill and
passion. This is a more intimate and personal music experience.

 Who Often Takes Part in Those Music Events?

Concerts are typically attended by music lovers who enjoy the thrill of live
performances. People of all ages and backgrounds attend concerts, often to see their
favorite artists or discover new ones. Fans of specific genres like pop, rock, or electronic
music are common in such events. On the other hand, those who play musical
instruments, especially pianists, often engage in playing at home, whether as a hobby or
a practice session. Piano enthusiasts and musicians of various skill levels, from
beginners to professionals, take part in playing music at home.

 Which Do You Prefer: Modern or Classical Music?

The preference between modern and classical music really depends on the mood and
setting. Modern music is energetic, catchy, and often reflects current trends, making it
perfect for a lively, social atmosphere like a concert. It’s diverse and can cover many
genres such as pop, rock, or electronic. Classical music, on the other hand, offers a
timeless elegance and depth, with intricate compositions that evoke different emotions.
It's ideal for relaxing, focusing, or creating a more reflective environment. Both genres
have their unique appeal, depending on the situation and personal taste.
16. Cửa hàng tiện lợi + siêu thị

17. Học online và offline

  describe

In the first scene, a person is studying online at home. They are sitting at a desk, perhaps
in front of a computer or laptop, with headphones on and a focused expression. The
environment is quiet, with some books and personal items around, creating a
comfortable and private space for learning. The convenience of online learning allows
them to attend classes or access resources from the comfort of their own home. In the
second scene, students are in a classroom, engaging in face-to-face learning with a
teacher. The room is filled with desks, a chalkboard or projector, and students interacting
with one another and the instructor. The teacher is explaining a lesson, while the
students listen and participate in discussions or activities. The classroom setting fosters a
more structured and social environment for learning.

 Which Place Is Better?

Whether online learning at home or offline in a classroom is better depends on the

individual’s preferences and learning style. Online learning at home offers flexibility,
allowing students to learn at their own pace and manage their time. It’s ideal for those
who prefer a quiet, self-paced environment. On the other hand, offline learning in a
classroom provides direct interaction with teachers and peers, which can enhance
understanding and motivate students. It is better for those who thrive in structured
settings with social interaction.

 Studying in a Face-to-Face Group vs. Studying Online, Which Is Better?

Studying in a face-to-face group allows for better collaboration, immediate feedback

from the teacher, and direct interaction with classmates, which can lead to a deeper
understanding of the material. Group discussions and the social aspect of learning can be
motivating and engaging. However, studying online offers flexibility, especially for
those with busy schedules or those who prefer to work independently. It allows for self-
paced learning, but may lack the social interaction and support of a physical classroom.
The choice depends on the learner’s needs—whether they value flexibility or prefer a
more interactive, structured learning environment.

18. 2 kiểu nhà ở: apartment + small house

19. Xem phim ở rạp + xem phim ở nhà
Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a group of people is watching a movie at a cinema. The theater is
dark, with a large screen at the front, displaying the movie. The audience is sitting in
rows, focused on the screen, with some popcorn and drinks in hand. The atmosphere is
lively and immersive, with high-quality sound and visuals that enhance the movie-
watching experience.

In the second picture, someone is watching a movie at home, sitting on a cozy couch
with a TV screen in front. The room is comfortably lit, and the person is relaxed,
perhaps with snacks or a drink. The environment is quiet and personal, offering a more
casual and comfortable setting for watching movies.

Where Do You Prefer Watching Movies? Why?

I personally enjoy watching movies at home because of the comfort and flexibility it
offers. At home, I can pause the movie whenever I want, relax in my own space, and
even choose what snacks I want to have. I also don’t have to worry about loud crowds or
sitting in a fixed position. However, I do enjoy the cinema experience when it’s a highly
anticipated movie, as the big screen, surround sound, and immersive environment can
make it more exciting.

Where Is Better to Watch Movies?

Both options have their pros and cons. Watching movies in a cinema is great for those
who enjoy a cinematic experience, with high-quality visuals and sound that can make
the movie feel more impactful. It’s also a fun social activity if you go with friends. On
the other hand, watching movies at home is more convenient and relaxing, offering the
freedom to watch at your own pace, without distractions. It’s also less expensive.
Ultimately, the best place depends on what kind of experience you’re looking for: a
professional, immersive experience at the cinema or a comfortable, flexible one at home.

20. Nghe nhạc bằng headphone ở nhà + nghe ca sĩ hát ở ngoài

 Describe

Well, both of these two pictures show us some people enjoying music but they have
several differences. In the first picture, there is a woman lying on a chair and listening to
music. I guess she is enjoying her leisure time by listening to his favorite songs. Maybe
she is a huge fan of music. Music helps her feel relaxed and comfortable. In the second
picture, I see a group of people playing with musical instruments. I guess they're
professional musicians and they are preparing for their upcoming concert. Maybe music
is their passion and it becomes an important part of their life.

 The ways to enjoy music in these 2 pictures?

The ways to enjoy music in these two pictures are so different. In the first picture, the
woman is enjoying music herself at home. To enjoy the relaxing time with music,
everything she needs just is a smartphone or a music player and headphones. That’s it.
She can lie down on the chair whenever she wants and listen to any favorite songs.
Awesome. In the second picture, it may be a professional concert that needs preparation
well before starting. If you want to go to a music concert, you need to find a suitable one
that will perform your favorite type of music and book the ticket early to reserve. It
seems a bit more complicated.

 Benefits of listening to music

Music is an important part of being human. First, music helps us improve our mood.
Music can benefit overall well-being and create happiness in everyday life. Secondly,
music reduces stress and anxiety in people's minds. Third, music improves memory and
eases pain. I am not a huge fan of music at all but I think people can't live without
music. Especially, when I feel disappointed or losing myself, music helps to find me
again.

21. Người đàn ông ngồi đọc sách + Cậu bé chơi điện tử
Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a man is sitting comfortably, deeply focused on reading a book. He is
seated in a quiet environment, perhaps with a warm drink by his side, creating a
peaceful, thoughtful atmosphere. The man appears to be absorbed in the story or
information, enjoying the solitude and focus that comes with reading.

In the second picture, a boy is playing video games. He is sitting in front of a screen,
likely holding a game controller, and seems fully immersed in the game. The room is
well-lit, and there may be some gaming accessories or posters around. The boy looks
engaged in the action of the game, enjoying the fast-paced and interactive experience.

Do You Prefer Reading Newspapers or Playing Video Games?

It really depends on the mood and the context. Reading newspapers can be a great way
to stay informed about current events and expand knowledge, while playing video
games offers an exciting and interactive form of entertainment. Personally, I enjoy
reading to stay updated on news or to dive into a good book for relaxation. However,
video games are a fun way to unwind and engage with others in a virtual world. Both
have their own value, depending on what you're looking to do at the moment.

What Are the Benefits of Reading?

Reading has numerous benefits, including expanding vocabulary, improving
concentration, and enhancing knowledge. It can also boost creativity, stimulate the brain,
and improve critical thinking skills. Reading books or articles helps individuals
understand different perspectives and can serve as an escape, providing relaxation and
stress relief. It’s a powerful way to learn new things, improve writing skills, and enhance
overall cognitive function.

22. Rừng thông + Sa mạc

Tranh 1 người đàn ông đứng ở rừng thông lạnh giá + Người phụ nữ đứng ở sa mạc

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a man stands in a dense, snow-covered pine forest. The tall trees are
thick with snow, and the atmosphere feels cold and quiet. The man is dressed warmly,
perhaps in a jacket and gloves, to protect himself from the freezing temperatures. The
environment looks isolated, with the stillness of the snow-covered forest adding to the
sense of peace and solitude.
In the second picture, a woman stands in a vast desert. The sand stretches for miles, with
no signs of vegetation except a few scattered plants. The sun is harsh, and the landscape
appears dry and barren. The woman is dressed in light, protective clothing, perhaps to
shield herself from the heat and sun. The desert is expansive and open, with a sense of
openness and quiet.

What Types of People Live in These Two Places?

People who live in cold, snowy environments like pine forests are often accustomed to
harsh weather conditions. These individuals might be involved in activities like logging,
research, or tourism, and they need to be prepared for extreme temperatures. Their
lifestyle is typically built around staying warm, often in remote, isolated areas where the
natural environment plays a major role in daily life.

In contrast, people living in the desert are usually adapted to hot, dry conditions. Many
desert communities rely on agriculture, especially those who use irrigation systems, and
some might work in mining or tourism. Their lifestyles involve strategies for managing
extreme heat, such as using light clothing, finding sources of water, and adapting to the
sparse environment.

Which Place Do You Prefer?

It really depends on the lifestyle I enjoy. The snowy pine forest offers tranquility and a
close connection to nature, ideal for those who appreciate solitude, winter activities, and
the beauty of snowy landscapes. On the other hand, the desert has its own kind of
beauty, with wide open spaces and unique environments. It might be more appealing for
those who enjoy warmth, vast landscapes, and a sense of adventure. Personally, I would
prefer the pine forest for its peaceful, serene atmosphere and the chance to enjoy winter
activities.

23. Người đàn ông với đàn khỉ + Ngư dân bắt cá heo
  Describe

Well, these two pictures are so beautiful, I like them so now I can describe them.
Looking at the first picture, I can see a man and three monkeys. They are playing. They
are happy. This is my description for the first one.

Moving to the second picture, I can see a man playing with a dolphin. They are happy.

This is my description for the second one.

So, they have something in common. They are about animals. But they are different
monkeys and dolphins. Anyway, I like both pictures because……………………

 Do you prefer monkeys or dolphins?

I think both are amazing, but it depends on what you’re into! Monkeys are super
intelligent and social, and their playful behavior is fascinating. They can learn and adapt
to different environments, which makes them really interesting to watch. On the other
hand, dolphins are incredible swimmers, and their ability to communicate with each
other is mind-blowing. They form tight bonds and even help each other out in the wild.
It’s tough to choose, but I guess I’d lean towards dolphins for their intelligence and the
fact they live in such a mysterious environment!

 What should we do to protect animals?

Protecting animals is really important, and there are a lot of things we can do. First, we
need to stop destroying their natural habitats—things like deforestation and pollution
have a huge impact on wildlife. Protecting forests, oceans, and other ecosystems is key.
We should also support conservation efforts, like wildlife reserves and breeding
programs for endangered species. Reducing plastic waste, fighting climate change, and
even making more sustainable choices in our daily lives can all make a difference. Every
little effort counts when it comes to protecting animals and the planet!

24. Gia đình chơi cờ + Một người chơi video games

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a family is gathered around a table playing chess. The atmosphere is
calm and thoughtful, with each member of the family focused on their moves. The
family members are likely engaged in a friendly yet competitive game, enjoying quality
time together. The setting is cozy, perhaps in a living room, with a warm and peaceful
ambiance.

In the second picture, a boy is playing video games, sitting in front of a screen with a
game controller in his hands. He looks concentrated and immersed in the game. The
room is well-lit, with gaming accessories around him, reflecting the modern, interactive
world of video gaming. The boy is enjoying the fast-paced action of the game.

Do You Prefer Playing Chess or Playing Video Games?

It depends on the mood and what I want from the activity. Chess offers a more strategic
and slow-paced experience, which requires concentration, thinking ahead, and careful
planning. It’s a great way to challenge the mind. On the other hand, video games offer
excitement, entertainment, and sometimes a social experience, especially if you’re
playing online with others. Personally, I enjoy both, but I might lean towards chess when
I want to relax and think deeply and video games when I want action and fun.

Are Indoor Activities Important? Why?

Yes, indoor activities are very important for a variety of reasons. They provide a way to
relax and unwind, especially when the weather outside is not suitable for outdoor
activities. Indoor activities like reading, playing chess, or even playing video games can
help improve cognitive skills, provide entertainment, and offer a space for socializing
with family or friends. They are also essential for learning new skills and keeping the
mind engaged, particularly during times when it’s difficult to be outside, such as during
the winter or bad weather.

25. Cưỡi lạc đà + Cưỡi xe ngựa

 Describe

Looking at these two pictures, I can see two different ways of moving with animals.
Looking at the picture on the left, I can tell that there is a man riding a camel. It seemed
like he was in the desert because there was a pyramid behind him and all around was
golden sand.

Looking at the picture on the right, I see a man riding a horse-drawn carriage. He wore a
very elegant suit. It seems like he's in town.

 What are the interesting points of these 2 ways of traveling above?

Riding a horse or camel is interesting because these animals make the journey special.
Horses are fast and make the trip exciting, creating a strong bond with the rider. Camels
are great for slower, relaxed journeys, letting travelers enjoy the surroundings. Both
experiences connect people with animals, adding a unique touch to the trip. Riding
horses or camels also lets us feel a connection to history, culture, and nature, making the
journey more memorable and meaningful.

 Should animals be treated like a means of transportation?

I think animals shouldn't just be used as a way to get around. Even though they can help
us travel, we need to be kind to them. Animals have feelings and needs, so it's not fair to
treat them only as a transportation tool. Taking care of them means giving them enough
rest and not making them work too much. We should be nice to animals and make sure
they are treated well while still using them for transportation.

26. Ăn ở nhà + Ăn ngoài hàng

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a man is sitting at a table at home, enjoying a homemade meal. The
setting is warm and cozy, with the table filled with delicious dishes, creating a
comfortable atmosphere. The focus is on the food, and the meal appears to be a home-
cooked, nourishing experience, perhaps prepared with care by family members.

In the second picture, people are eating at a restaurant. The setting is lively, with neatly
arranged tables, and the food is presented professionally. The atmosphere is busy, with
waiters serving customers, and the dining experience is more social. The people seem to
be enjoying their meal in a more public setting, possibly as part of a celebration or
casual outing.

Do You Prefer to Eat at Home or Out?

I enjoy both eating at home and dining out, but it depends on the situation. Eating at
home is more comfortable, cost-effective, and allows for home-cooked meals, where I
can control the ingredients and portion sizes. It’s also a great way to spend quality time
with family. On the other hand, dining out offers variety, new experiences, and the
chance to try different cuisines, which is exciting. For a regular meal, I prefer eating at
home, but for special occasions, dining out can be fun and enjoyable.

Why Do We Have to Eat a Variety of Foods?

Eating a variety of foods is important because it ensures that we get a wide range of
nutrients essential for maintaining good health. Different foods provide different
vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fats that our bodies need to function properly. A
balanced diet with a variety of foods can help prevent nutritional deficiencies, promote
overall well-being, and reduce the risk of health problems like obesity or heart disease. It
also keeps meals interesting and enjoyable, allowing us to experience different flavors
and textures.

27. Người khuyết tật chơi bóng rổ + Người già chơi tennis
Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a person with a disability is playing basketball in an indoor gym.
They are skillfully maneuvering the wheelchair to navigate the court, showcasing
determination and athleticism. The gym has a competitive and encouraging atmosphere,
and the person is focused on the game, demonstrating how adaptive sports provide
opportunities for all individuals, regardless of physical limitations.

In the second picture, an elderly person is playing tennis outdoors. They are actively
engaged in the game, enjoying the fresh air and sunshine. The tennis court is surrounded
by greenery, providing a peaceful yet energetic environment. The elderly player is
moving with agility, highlighting the fact that age is not a barrier to participating in
sports and enjoying physical activity.

What Are the Benefits of Indoor and Outdoor Sports?

Indoor sports, like basketball or badminton, offer the advantage of being weather-
independent, providing a controlled environment where individuals can play year-round.
They also tend to be more predictable, with no weather-related interruptions. Indoor
sports can be excellent for training, focus, and competition in a comfortable space.

Outdoor sports, on the other hand, allow for fresh air, sunshine, and exposure to nature,
which can improve mood and mental health. Playing outdoors often involves more space
and can enhance physical endurance, offering a greater variety of settings (such as
tennis, soccer, or hiking). Both types of sports provide physical exercise, but outdoor
sports have the added benefits of connecting with nature and improving overall well-
being.

Do You Think That the Main Purpose of Playing a Game Is to Win?

While winning is a natural goal in any competitive game, I believe the main purpose of
playing a game should be about enjoyment, personal growth, and teamwork. Games help
develop skills, foster social connections, and promote physical activity. They provide an
opportunity to challenge oneself, build resilience, and learn how to work with others. Of
course, winning adds excitement and a sense of accomplishment, but the true value of
playing a game lies in the experience and the lessons learned along the way.

28. Đọc sách truyền thống + đọc sách online

Describe the Two Ways of Reading

In the first picture, a person is reading a traditional paper book, enjoying the experience
of turning physical pages in a calm and focused setting. This provides an immersive,
distraction-free way to read. In the second picture, a person is reading on a digital device
like a tablet. The device offers portability, customization of text, and easy access to
multiple books, but it may lack the tactile satisfaction of a physical book.

What Are the Disadvantages of These Two Ways of Learning?

Traditional books can be bulky, expensive, and less convenient to carry around. They
can also take longer to search for specific information compared to digital formats.
Digital reading, while portable, can cause eye strain, distractions from notifications, and
sometimes make it harder to retain information. Some may also find that screen reading
reduces the immersive experience of physical books.

Nowadays, Technology Has Helped Us a Lot in Finding Information, What Do You

Think?
Technology has made accessing information much easier and faster. The internet offers a
wealth of resources, and online platforms have made learning interactive. However, it’s
important to ensure the sources we use are reliable and accurate. While technology has
improved learning, we must be careful to avoid misinformation and use it responsibly.

30. Chơi bóng đá + nhảy xà

 Describe

Looking at these two pictures, I see that there are two different sports.
Looking at the picture on the left, I see there is a soccer team. They are playing soccer
on the grass field and it looks like they are playing in a stadium.

In the picture on the right I see a man doing jumps. He's wearing a sporty outfit and he
looks very healthy and full of energy. In this picture, I can see the weather is very lovely
and brilliant.

 What is the difference between these 2 sports activities?

Football and high jump are different sports. Football is a team game with a ball, played
by two teams. The goal is to score by getting the ball into the opposing team's goal. In
high jump, individuals try to jump over a bar. Football is about teamwork and scoring
goals, while high jump is an individual sport where athletes show their ability to jump
over a bar. The main difference is that football is a team game, and high jump is an
individual event in track and field.

 Why are some sports activities more popular than others?

Certain sports are more well-liked because they're easy to try, get a lot of attention in the
media, and connect with people culturally. When a sport is simple to start, doesn't need
much gear, and is widely covered in the media, it tends to become popular. The cultural
importance and traditions associated with a sport also matter. Moreover, sports that are
easy to understand and play often attract more people. In summary, a sport's popularity
depends on how accessible it is, its media exposure, cultural relevance, and simplicity.

31. Bảo tàng + đu dây

Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a mother and her two children are visiting a museum. They are likely
looking at exhibits, with the children observing and the mother guiding them through the
displays. The museum appears to be a place of learning, where the family is exploring
history, art, or science in an educational environment.
In the second picture, a young boy is playing on a swing in a park. He is enjoying the
thrill of swinging back and forth, with a joyful expression. The park is outdoors, and the
boy looks active, surrounded by greenery and open space, showing the carefree
enjoyment of physical play.

Which Activity Do You Prefer?

Both activities are enjoyable, but I would prefer visiting the museum. It’s an excellent
way to learn new things, especially in a family setting. Museums provide opportunities
for cultural and educational enrichment, which is always exciting. However, playing in
the park is also fun and a great way to stay active. It really depends on the mood and the
type of experience I'm looking for!

Why Is It Important for Children to Take Part in Different Activities?

It’s important for children to engage in various activities because it helps them develop a
range of skills, from cognitive abilities to physical coordination. Visiting a museum can
stimulate intellectual curiosity, creativity, and knowledge, while playing in the park
encourages physical fitness, social interaction, and emotional development. A variety of
experiences supports well-rounded growth, helping children explore their interests and
develop a balanced set of skills for life.

32. Chơi piano ở nhà + Chơi guitar trên sân khấu

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a person is playing the piano at home. The setting is cozy, with soft
lighting, and the person appears focused on the keys. The atmosphere feels calm and
intimate, allowing the player to enjoy the music in a relaxed, personal space.

In the second picture, a person is playing the guitar on stage in front of an audience. The
setting is lively, with bright stage lights shining on the performer. The crowd is visible,
and the performer seems confident, surrounded by a more energetic and public
environment. The performance is likely a mix of excitement and focus as the musician
shares their talent with others.

Where Do You Like to Play Music? Why?

I enjoy playing music both at home and on stage, but it depends on the experience I’m
looking for. At home, I like the quiet and personal atmosphere where I can practice and
get lost in the music without any pressure. It’s a time for self-expression and relaxation.
On stage, the energy of the crowd and the excitement of performing create a different
kind of thrill. It’s an opportunity to share the music with others and feel the connection
through performance.

How Does Playing Music in Different Locations Bring Different Feelings?

Playing music at home feels more private and peaceful. It allows you to focus on the
music itself and explore emotions without distractions. On the other hand, playing music
on stage brings a rush of adrenaline and excitement. The audience's reactions add a
sense of accomplishment and connection, but there’s also more pressure to perform well.
The location changes the mood of the music, whether it's calming at home or dynamic
and energizing on stage.

33. Ăn vỉa hè + ăn nhà hàng

Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, people are sitting at a street food stall, eating delicious dishes from
plastic tables along the sidewalk. The atmosphere is casual and lively, with the sounds of
the street surrounding them. The food is served quickly, and the experience is typically
inexpensive and relaxed, but the environment may be crowded and noisy.

In the second picture, people are dining at a fancy restaurant. They are seated at elegant
tables, with high-quality service and a calm atmosphere. The restaurant is clean and
well-organized, offering a more refined and formal dining experience, but the meals tend
to be more expensive and may take longer to prepare.

What Are the Difficulties of Eating in These Places?

Eating at a street food stall can be uncomfortable due to the lack of seating, limited
privacy, or noise from the street. The cleanliness and hygiene might also be a concern
for some. While the food is often tasty and affordable, the lack of amenities or comfort
can make the experience less pleasant.

Eating at a restaurant may have fewer physical discomforts, but it can be expensive and
time-consuming. The formal setting might also feel intimidating or less relaxing for
those who prefer a more laid-back dining experience. Long waiting times or complex
menus might also be a downside.

Why Do People Dislike Eating Alone?

Many people dislike eating alone because it can feel isolating or uncomfortable. Eating
is often a social activity, and sharing a meal with others can make the experience more
enjoyable and fulfilling. Being alone might lead to feelings of loneliness, and people
may feel self-conscious in a public setting without company. Additionally, meals are a
time for conversation and connection, which can be missing when dining alone.

34. Làm việc ở phòng thí nghiệm + văn phòng

35. Rừng thông + Bãi biển

 Describe

In these two pictures, I see two completely different places.

In the first picture, I see two people standing in a pine forest. The weather looks very
cold. Looking at the background, I see a lot of pine trees around.

In the second picture, I see two people sitting and looking at the sea. They seem to be
relaxing and enjoying themselves very much. It seems that the beach is very beautiful
and the weather is very lovely and gorgeous.

 Which place do you like more? Pine forests or beaches?

I prefer beaches. People love beaches for their calming vibes. The gentle sound of
waves, warm sand, and wide sea views create a peaceful atmosphere that helps folks
unwind. Beaches offer a break from the usual routine, giving a sense of escape and a
chance to connect with nature. Plus, there's the fun factor – swimming or playing beach
games adds to the enjoyment. The positive feelings associated with the coastal setting
make beaches a top choice for those seeking a relaxing getaway from the daily grind.

 Does the weather affect people's emotions? Why?

Yes, weather can impact people's emotions. Sunny days often boost mood and energy
levels, triggering positive emotions. On the other hand, gloomy weather can lead to
feelings of sadness or lethargy. Natural light affects the production of serotonin, a
neurotransmitter linked to mood. Additionally, seasonal changes can influence emotional
states, with sunlight exposure playing a role in regulating circadian rhythms. Overall,
weather conditions have a significant influence on people's emotional well-being by
affecting neurotransmitter levels and daily rhythms.

36. Gia đình ở biển + núi

 Describe

Looking at these two pictures, I see two different activities.

In the first picture. I see a group of people climbing a mountain. Looking at the
background, there are a lot of clouds and the sky is very beautiful. They seem to be
professional climbers. In the second picture, I see a family at the beach looking very
happy and full of energy. I can see that the weather was very beautiful and brilliant.
  Which of the 2 places do you like to go? Why?

I find the mountains more appealing. The serene landscapes and fresh mountain air
create a peaceful ambiance that resonates with me. I appreciate the opportunity to hike
and explore nature trails, immersing myself in the tranquility of the surroundings. While
beaches are lovely, I'm drawn to the rugged beauty and sense of solitude that mountains
offer. The idea of cozy mountain retreats and breathtaking views adds to the allure.
Overall, the mountains provide a retreat where I can disconnect and recharge amidst the
beauty of nature.

 Who is suitable for each activity? Why?

It really depends on personal preferences and interests. Beaches are great for those who
enjoy sunbathing, water activities, and a more laid-back atmosphere. People who love
the sound of waves, sandy shores, and a tropical vibe would likely prefer beaches. On
the other hand, mountains cater to individuals who appreciate hiking, nature walks, and
a cooler climate. Those seeking adventure, stunning landscapes, and a quieter retreat
might find mountains more suitable.

37. Xây cầu ở thành thị + Cánh đồng nông thôn

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a group of workers is constructing a bridge in an urban setting. They
are busy with various tools and machinery, working on the project in a bustling city
environment. The surroundings are filled with tall buildings, roads, and traffic,
indicating a fast-paced, industrial atmosphere.

In the second picture, a man is standing and looking at a peaceful rural landscape. He is
observing vast fields, rolling hills, and greenery, with no signs of buildings or urban life.
The environment feels calm and quiet, offering a stark contrast to the urban scene in the
first picture.

Which Place Would You Rather Live: The City or the Countryside?
I would prefer to live in the countryside. It offers a slower pace of life, fresh air, and
natural beauty, which can be very relaxing and peaceful. The rural environment provides
a sense of connection to nature, and I appreciate the calmness and space it offers.
However, I can understand why some people prefer the city for its convenience,
opportunities, and vibrant social scene.

Who Is Suitable for Each Place? Why?

The city is suitable for people who thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy socializing,
and seek career opportunities. Those who like convenience, access to services, and
entertainment will also feel at home in the city. It is perfect for professionals, young
people, or anyone looking for excitement and progress.

The countryside is better for people who value peace, nature, and a slower lifestyle. It
suits individuals who enjoy outdoor activities, farming, or those looking for a more
relaxed pace. Retirees, families, or anyone seeking a break from the stress of city life
might find the countryside more ideal for their lifestyle.

38. Đi bằng ô tô + tàu

Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a family is traveling by car. They are likely on a road trip, with the
car packed and everyone enjoying the journey together. The environment seems to be an
open road, and the family is relaxed, sharing the experience of traveling in the comfort
of their vehicle.

In the second picture, two people are traveling by train. They are seated comfortably in a
train car, possibly looking out the window or having a conversation. The train offers a
smooth and scenic journey, with a view of the passing landscape, suggesting a more
leisurely and peaceful travel experience compared to the car.

What Are the Advantages of Traveling by Car and Traveling by Train?

Traveling by car offers flexibility, allowing you to stop whenever you want and travel at
your own pace. It's perfect for families or groups who want privacy, control, and
convenience, especially on long road trips. Additionally, a car allows access to remote or
rural destinations that may not be easily reachable by public transport.

Traveling by train is more relaxing, as it offers a smooth ride and the ability to enjoy the
scenery without worrying about navigation or driving. Trains are often more eco-
friendly and comfortable for long-distance travel. They also avoid traffic and can offer a
social environment, where passengers can move around, eat, or even sleep comfortably.

Why Do Some People Like Traveling by Train?

Many people enjoy traveling by train because it is less stressful than driving or flying.
The ride is generally more relaxed, with the ability to stretch out, walk around, or use
onboard services. Trains can offer stunning views of the landscape, providing a scenic
journey. Additionally, traveling by train is more environmentally friendly and often more
reliable than other modes of transport, making it a popular choice for both long and short
trips.

39. Bãi biển đông người + 2 cô gái cạnh sông

 Describe

Looking at these two pictures, I see two different places to travel.

looking at the first picture, I see a lot of people at the beach and there are a lot of
umbrellas with many colors. It seems to be a very beautiful beach with blue water and
white sand. I believe the weather is lovely and gorgeous. Looking at the second picture,
I see two girls sitting next to a river. I guess these two girls are sitting and watching the
mountains and forests to relax. This picture is very peaceful.

 Do you like going to crowded beaches?

No, I don't like going to crowded beaches. First, they are often noisy. There is a lot of
noise from people talking, laughing, and playing music. This can be very distracting and
make it difficult to relax. Second, crowded beaches are often dirty. There is a lot of trash
and litter on the sand and in the water. This can be unsightly and even dangerous. Third,
crowded beaches can be uncomfortable. It can be difficult to find a place to sit or lay
down, and the sand can be hot and uncomfortable.

 Why do many people like quiet places?

People like quiet places because they offer a calm and focused environment. Silence
helps with concentration and minimizes distractions, making it easier to study, read, or
think deeply. A quiet setting also promotes relaxation and reduces stress. When it's quiet,
people can concentrate better on their tasks, which improves productivity. The
preference for quiet places is often based on the desire for a peaceful and comfortable
atmosphere that supports various activities without interruptions.

40. Học ở thư viện + ở quán cà phê

  Describe

In these two pictures, I see two different places to study. Looking at the first picture, I
see 3 friends, they are wearing different casual clothes. I see that they are studying very
hard. Looking at the background, I believe this is a library with a lot of books. Looking
at the second picture, I see a man reading a coffee shop book. He is wearing a striped
shirt. I saw that he was sitting next to the window of the cafe. Outside, the weather is
very nice.

 Do you prefer studying in the library or coffee shop? Why?

I prefer studying in the library. Libraries are quiet and free, which helps me to focus on
my work. They also have a variety of resources, such as books, articles, and computers,
which can be helpful for research. However, I sometimes study in coffee shops. Coffee
shops can be a social and welcoming environment. They also have free Wi-Fi, which can
be helpful if I need to access online resources. In the end, the best place to study
depends on my individual needs and preferences. If I need to focus on my work, I will
study in the library. If I want to be more social, I will study in a coffee shop.

 What are the difficulties of studying at the library and at coffee shops?

Studying at a library can sometimes be challenging due to the rigid, quiet atmosphere,
which may feel restrictive for some. On the other hand, coffee shops might pose
difficulties with noise distractions and limited space. Libraries may lack the comfortable
amenities that coffee shops provide, like refreshments. However, coffee shops may have
inconsistent Wi-Fi or too much ambient noise. The choice depends on personal
preferences, balancing the need for a quiet, focused environment with the desire for a
more relaxed and comfortable setting.

41. Gia đình ngồi sân cỏ + cô gái ở ban công

Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a family is sitting on the grass outdoors, possibly enjoying a picnic or
just spending quality time together. They seem relaxed and happy, with the peaceful
green surroundings providing a calm atmosphere for bonding. The scene suggests a
warm, enjoyable moment shared by family members in nature.

In the second picture, a girl is sitting on a balcony, perhaps enjoying a cup of coffee or
reading a book. The balcony offers a view of the outside, and the setting seems private
and serene. The girl appears to be enjoying some quiet time alone, reflecting or
unwinding in her personal space.

Do You Prefer Living with Family or Living Alone?

I prefer living with family because it provides a sense of connection, support, and
warmth. Being with family allows for shared moments, such as meals and conversations,
and creates a more lively and social environment. However, I can also see the appeal of
living alone, as it offers independence and personal space. It ultimately depends on the
situation, but I value the closeness of family living.

Nowadays, Why Do Many People Like to Live Alone?

Many people enjoy living alone for the independence it provides. It allows them to have
more control over their environment, daily routines, and decisions. Living alone can also
offer privacy, peace, and the freedom to personalize their space without needing to
compromise with others. For some, it’s a way to gain a sense of self-reliance and enjoy
solitude, which can be refreshing in today’s busy, social world.

42. Vườn trồng cà chua (rau) + trồng hoa

Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, there is a garden full of tomato plants, with rows of healthy, ripe
tomatoes growing on the vines. The garden looks neat and well-maintained, showcasing
the hard work and care that goes into growing vegetables. The setting is likely sunny,
with a focus on cultivating food for personal consumption or sharing with others.

In the second picture, there is a garden filled with vibrant flowers in various colors. The
flowers are in full bloom, creating a beautiful and colorful display. This garden gives off
a peaceful, aesthetic vibe, and the flowers likely attract bees, butterflies, and other
pollinators. The focus here is on creating a visually pleasing environment rather than
growing food.

What Are the Benefits of Growing a Garden?

Growing a garden offers several benefits, such as providing fresh, organic produce for
personal consumption. Gardening can also promote physical activity, improve mental
health by reducing stress, and provide a sense of accomplishment. A garden allows
people to connect with nature, learn new skills, and create a peaceful outdoor space. It
can also help save money on groceries by growing your own vegetables or flowers.

What Is the Appeal of Growing Vegetables or Flowers?

Growing vegetables appeals to many because it allows people to enjoy homegrown,
fresh, and healthy food, often without the use of pesticides. It’s also satisfying to see
your plants grow and produce something tangible. On the other hand, growing flowers is
appealing for their beauty and the joy they bring to outdoor spaces. Flowers brighten up
a garden, attract wildlife, and create a relaxing, pleasant atmosphere. Both vegetables
and flowers offer unique rewards, whether it’s nourishing the body or enhancing the
environment.

43. Gia đình chụp ảnh + Người đàn ông viết thư
Describe the Two Pictures
In the first picture, a family of three is posing for a photo, smiling and enjoying a special
moment together. They are likely capturing a memory, surrounded by a pleasant setting,
such as a park or home. The photograph seems to symbolize happiness, connection, and
a shared experience among family members.

In the second picture, a man is sitting at a desk, carefully writing a handwritten letter. He
appears focused and thoughtful, possibly expressing his feelings or sharing news with
someone. The act of writing a letter shows a personal, intimate way of communication,
creating a tangible connection through words.

The Importance of Reading News

Reading the news is important because it keeps us informed about current events, both
locally and globally. Staying up to date helps us understand the world around us, make
informed decisions, and participate in society. It can also highlight important social,
political, and economic changes that affect our daily lives. News allows us to engage
with critical issues, stay connected to our community, and develop a broader perspective
on world affairs.

Do You Like to Preserve Memories by Taking Photos or Writing Them Down?

I enjoy both taking photos and writing memories down, though they serve different
purposes. Photos capture moments visually, preserving the details and emotions of an
experience. They are a quick and easy way to hold on to memories. Writing, on the other
hand, allows for deeper reflection and a more personal connection to the memory.
Writing down thoughts or experiences can offer insight into how I felt at the time and
allows me to preserve stories in more detail. Both methods are valuable for preserving
memories in their own unique ways.

44. 2 mẹ con mua hàng ở mall + local market

Describe the Two Pictures

In the first picture, a mother and daughter are shopping at a high-end shopping mall.
They are browsing expensive items, likely in a designer store, and their surroundings are
modern and elegant, with well-lit displays and a clean, upscale atmosphere. The focus is
on luxury and style, with the mother and daughter possibly considering premium
purchases.

In the second picture, a mother and daughter are shopping in a colorful local market.
They are looking at bright, vibrant clothing and various goods from local vendors. The
atmosphere is more lively, with a mix of people and the hustle and bustle of a busy
market. The items are more affordable and diverse, with an emphasis on traditional or
handmade products.

Do You Prefer Shopping at Shopping Malls or Local Markets?

I personally prefer shopping at local markets. They offer a more unique and personal
experience with a variety of handmade, locally produced goods. The vibrant atmosphere,
bargaining, and interaction with local sellers make it more interesting and authentic.
Shopping malls, on the other hand, can sometimes feel impersonal and crowded, though
they offer convenience and a more comfortable shopping environment.

Many People Like to Buy Expensive Things. What Is Your Opinion?

I believe that buying expensive things can be a personal choice, but it should be done
thoughtfully. While high-end products often offer quality and luxury, I think it's
important to consider the value and practicality of purchases. Some people may buy
expensive items as a symbol of status or to indulge in themselves, but it's crucial not to
overindulge and to prioritize needs over wants. The value of an item doesn’t always
correlate with its price—sometimes, something affordable can bring just as much joy.

DẠNG ĐỀ KỂ CHUYỆN (DẠNG ĐỀ HAY GẶP)

1. Gộp 10 đề: Lần teamwork (tương tự lần thuyết trình) + Lần làm việc với

Last summer, I participated in a volunteer project in a small mountain city. Our mission
was to make a presentation about “Environmental Problems”. It was both exciting and
challenging, as I had to work with a diverse team of people, including older and younger
members (work with older and younger people - Topic 45). We had to plan for this
project for almost 2 months before finishing it (Planning something - Topic 29). This
experience helped me improve my teamwork and communication skills, which are new
skills to me. (Teamwork, New skill - Topics 1, 8).

The preparation phase was extremely hectic and rushed. We had to finalize plans, gather
materials, and rehearse within a short time frame. Some tasks seemed overwhelming,
but I put in a lot of effort to ensure everything went smoothly. (Challenge, busy time, in
a hurry - Topics 2, 3, 22).

The event itself turned out to be a huge success, and seeing the joy on the children’s
faces made all the hard work worthwhile. In the end, our team received recognition from
the local community, which felt like a significant achievement. (Achievement - Topic 4).

In addition to the event, I had a chance to explore the beautiful city and learn about its
culture, making this trip even more special. (Visiting a new city - Topic 5).

2. Gộp 8 đề: Lần có chuyến đi dài + Lần vào rừng chơi +Lần chơi trò chơi cảm
giác mạnh + Lần đi lạc + Lần gặp thử thách + Lần được giúp đỡ + Lần gặp
bạn mới + Lần cười lớn.

A few months ago, I went on a long hiking trip (extreme sports) with friends to a remote
forest. (A Long Journey + Forest - Topics 32, 43). The trail was beautiful but
challenging, with steep climbs and narrow paths. At one point, we took the wrong turn
and got lost deep in the forest. (Getting Lost - Topic 11) It was nerve-wracking, but a
kind local guide eventually found us and led us back to the main path. We became
friends and still keep in touch until these days. (Being Helped, Meeting a new friend -
Topics 9, 6)

The biggest challenge of the trip was crossing a high suspension bridge. (A Challenge -
Topic 2). I was terrified of heights, but with my friends cheering me on, I finally made it
across. We all burst into laughter afterward, celebrating my small victory. (Laughing Out
Loud - Topic 39)
This journey was not only an adventure but also a chance to face my fears and bond with
my friends in unforgettable ways.

3. Gộp 7 đề: Lần đi du lịch + Lần thăm tòa nhà cao tầng + Lần thăm tòa nhà cổ

Lần nhận tin tốt/ email

Last summer, I went on a holiday to a coastal city with my family to celebrate my 18th
birthday. (Holiday - Topic 35) On the second day, we visited a famous ancient
skyscraper with an observation deck offering panoramic views, and admired many
beautiful works of art in that building. (Visiting a tall building/ ancient building; seeing
artwork - Topics 33, 12). Then, as we stepped outside, the weather turned unexpectedly
bad, with heavy rain and strong winds. (Bad Weather - Topic 34)

The storm delayed our plans, but we decided to wait it out in a cozy café nearby, where I
received a surprising gift from my parents and it really made my day. I even received an
acceptance email to my dream university that same day. (Receiving a gift + Good news,
Topics 7, 36)

It was a beautiful memory and a reminder to find joy in the little things, even on rainy
days.

A few months ago, I attended a large outdoor music festival with some friends.
(Attending a Music Festival - Topic 14) The atmosphere was electric, with live
performances, food stalls, and people dancing everywhere. During one performance, I
got so excited that I accidentally stepped into a restricted area near the stage to take a
better photo. (Breaking a Rule - Topic 13) A security guard quickly approached me and
politely asked me to leave. I felt a bit embarrassed but understood it was for safety
reasons. (Being Asked to Stop Doing Something - Topic 10)
After the festival, we decided to watch a local football match nearby. (Watching a Sports
Match - Topic 15) The game was intense, and the crowd’s energy was contagious. Then,
the best part of the day came later when we volunteered at a community event for
children organized by the festival team. (Helping Children - Topic 16) We helped set up
games and handed out small gifts, which made the kids so happy.

That day was a mix of fun, learning, and giving back, and it reminded me to always be
mindful of rules while enjoying myself to the fullest.

A few weeks ago, I visited a close friend who had just moved to a new apartment.
(Visiting a Friend - Topic 44) She was struggling to set up her furniture, so I offered to
help her assemble a bookshelf, even though I’m not very handy and didn’t really enjoy
such tasks. (Doing Something I Didn’t Want to Do - Topic 37)

While working on it, she asked me for advice about decorating her living room. She had
so many options for furniture and color schemes that she couldn’t decide. (Having Many
Choices - Topic 26) To make it even more challenging, she also asked me a tricky
question about whether a certain piece of art matched her style. (Answering a Difficult
Question - Topic 27) I wasn’t sure how to respond at first, but I tried to give her honest
and constructive feedback.

In the end, I felt happy to have helped her create a cozy space she loved. (Helping
Someone - Topic 21) This experience reminded me of the importance of being
supportive, even when the tasks aren’t enjoyable, and how making decisions together
can strengthen friendships.

A year ago, I wanted to buy a new laptop because my old one was very slow and kept
crashing. (Wanting Something I Couldn’t Have, Buying an Expensive Item - Topics 42,
30, 31). However, it was quite expensive, so I decided to save up for it by cutting back
on unnecessary spending. (Saving Money for Something - Topic 40) For months, I
avoided eating out and spent weekends doing freelance work to earn extra money.

In the meantime, I stumbled upon a book about productivity and financial planning,
which inspired me to manage my time and resources more effectively. (Reading a Great
Book - Topic 24) I even joined an online English course to improve my skills, hoping it
would open up better job opportunities to help me afford the laptop sooner. (Joining an
English Course - Topic 20)

Eventually, I saved enough to buy the laptop. (Buying an Expensive Item) It was such a
rewarding moment, knowing all my efforts had paid off. This experience taught me the
value of patience and hard work, and it made me appreciate the things I own even more.

DẠNG ĐỀ QUAN ĐIỂM CÁ NHÂN (ĐỀ DỊ - HIẾM GẶP)

1. Trang phục yêu thích (đề dị 1)

 Tell me about your favorite piece of clothing

I’d say my favorite piece is this super soft hoodie I’ve had for years. It’s a little worn out
now, but it feels like a hug every time I put it on. It’s the kind of thing that’s perfect for
lazy days, cold nights, or even when I just need a bit of comfort. The best part? It’s got a
huge pocket in the front where I can stash snacks or warm my hands. It’s not fancy, but
it’s home, you know?

 How do you feel when you wear it?

When I wear it, I feel totally at ease, like I can just relax and be myself. It’s like an
instant mood booster—it makes the world feel less serious. Whether I’m lounging
around or running quick errands, it’s my go-to for feeling cozy and chill. It’s also a bit
nostalgic because it’s been with me through so many memories, so there’s this sense of
comfort and familiarity that I love.

 Why do people dress in such different ways?

I think people dress differently because it’s a way of showing who they are—or who
they *want* to be. Clothes can tell a story, like where someone’s from, what they’re
into, or how they’re feeling that day. Plus, style is so tied to culture, trends, and even the
weather. Some people dress to stand out, others to blend in, and some just want to be
comfy. It’s cool how clothes can mean something different to everyone and still connect
us all in some way.

2. Thói quen ngủ (đề dị 2)

 Tell me about your sleeping habits.

I’m usually a night owl, staying up way later than I should, especially if I’m into a good
book or show. But I try to stick to a routine—bed around midnight and up by 7 or 8 AM.
Weekends? All bets are off; I’ll sleep in if I can. I like the room dark and cool, with a
blanket to cozy up in, and I need some background noise, like a fan or soft music, to
drift off. Sometimes I’ll scroll on my phone a bit too long, which doesn’t help my sleep,
but it’s a hard habit to break.

 How do you feel when you don’t have enough sleep?

When I don’t sleep enough, it’s like my brain is running on a dying battery. I’m groggy,
cranky, and can’t think straight. Everything feels harder—work, conversations, even
deciding what to eat. I’ll get random bursts of energy, but then crash just as fast. Coffee
helps, but it’s not the same as real rest. And don’t even talk to me before 10 AM if I’ve
had a bad night; I’m basically a zombie until I catch up on sleep.

 Is getting the right amount of sleep important? Why? Why not?

Yeah, it’s super important. Sleep is like hitting the reset button for your body and brain.
Without it, your mood tanks, your focus is shot, and even your health takes a hit. It’s
when your body repairs itself and your mind processes everything from the day. Sure,
sometimes life gets busy, and it’s tempting to push through with less sleep, but you pay
for it later. It’s not just about feeling rested; it’s about functioning well and staying
healthy long-term.

3. Âm nhạc (đề dị 3)

 Tell me about the music that comes from your country.

Where I’m from, the music is a mix of everything—traditional folk tunes, modern pop,
and a little bit of everything in between. The traditional stuff is all about storytelling,
with instruments like flutes, drums, or stringed ones that have this earthy, raw vibe. But
then, you’ve got big names in pop, rap, or indie scenes that are all over the global charts.
It’s like music here reflects the diversity of the people—something old, something new,
and something experimental all the time.

 How do you feel when you hear or listen to music?

Music’s like a mood magician for me. It can lift me up when I’m down or chill me out
when I’m stressed. There’s something about a good beat or the right lyrics that just hits
differently, like it’s speaking right to your soul. Sometimes it takes me back to specific
memories, and other times it’s just about getting lost in the sound. Whether it’s dancing,
vibing, or even crying to it, music always feels like a friend that just *gets* you.

 Why do some cultures produce so much music and others so little?

It probably comes down to history, traditions, and priorities. Some cultures are super
expressive and celebrate everything with music, so it becomes a big part of their identity.
Others might focus more on storytelling, art, or other forms of expression, and music
takes a backseat. Resources play a role too—like access to instruments or platforms to
share it. Plus, in some places, music is a way of preserving history, while in others, it’s
just for fun or personal expression. Every culture has its rhythm, even if some are louder
than others.

4. Internet.

 What do you use the internet for?

I use the internet for various purposes. It's a valuable resource for research, helping me
find information for work or school projects. I also use it to stay connected with friends
and family through social media and email. Entertainment is another aspect, as I stream
movies, watch videos, and play online games. Additionally, I shop online for a wide
range of products and services. Overall, the internet serves as an indispensable tool for
information, communication, and leisure.

 How do you feel when you use it?

When I use the internet, I feel a mix of emotions depending on the activity. If I'm
working or studying, I often feel focused and determined to find the information I need.
On social media, I can feel entertained and connected to others. While streaming or
playing games, I experience excitement and enjoyment. Shopping online might make me
feel satisfied or sometimes even a bit guilty if I spend too much. In general, the internet
enhances my emotions based on the specific task or interaction.

 Many people say that the internet has a bad impact on people. What do you think?

I think the impact of the internet on people varies and depends on how it's used. While
the internet provides numerous benefits like easy access to information, communication,
and entertainment, it can also have negative effects when overused or misused.
Excessive screen time can lead to health issues, and online harassment and addiction are
growing concerns. Therefore, it's essential to use the internet mindfully and strike a
balance to harness its benefits while mitigating its negative impact.
