TOPIC 4: MOVIES AND BOOKS
I consider myself as an avid reader. I read many genres of books such as novels,
textbooks or comic books, you name it. Reading book can do wonders for my mind, soul
and languages, you know.
Question 2. Do you like watching movies? (xem video để trả lời tương tự)
Question 4. If you were a movie director, what kinds of movies would you like to
make?
Oh, I’ve never thought about this before. To be honest, I dont have a knack for writing,
even writing a book or writing movie plots (kịch bản phim). But If I were a movie
director, I would make a movie about love – a kinda romantic film because I am a
diehard fan of romance.
I prefer watching movies in the cinema. It offers me an authentic environment, you know,
and with sound and visual effects. I also can enjoy the latest movies = latest installments
there. Last weekend, I hit to the cinema to enjoy the new movive called “….” It’s really a
blast!

Describe a TV or radio show that you regularly watch or listen to. Please say
What: My all-time favorite program is Who wants to be a millionaire. This is the most
respectable and interesting show in my opinion. I think you may have heard about this
show before because it is really well-known and wide-spread among many countries.
When: The show is usually on air on every sunday night. Even I am busy as a bee with
my work, I still try to carve my time out of my schedule of watch it every weekend.
How: Well the show is basically a question-answer type of challenge where the host of
the program throws questions at the candidate. The question’s difficulty can range from
extremely easy level such as “what letter comes after C in the alphabet?” to incredibly
difficult one such as “How many legs does an ant have?”
So, the player really really needs to be a polymath to win this game–a polymath I mean
mr know it all or in other words, a person with extensive knowledge about basically
every aspect of life.
Why: The reason why it’s called “who wants to be a millionaire’ is because the final
prize for the game is 1 million dollars for the winner – which is an enormous amount of
money I think. But I suppose this is a fair prize for people with extensive knowledge. It
kinda encourages people to become more and more aware of the world surrounding them.
And in the future If I possible I would definitely have a crack at taking part in the game
and try to win 1 million dollars

Tôi không nghĩ như vậy. Chiến lược này có một số tác dụng không thể phủ nhận, vâng, ví
dụ, nó chắc chắn sẽ thu hút sự phổ biến/ sự chú ý ngay từ đầu, bởi vì bạn biết đấy, các
diễn viên nổi tiếng, và họ có một lương fan hâm mộ rất lớn. Nhưng nếu nội dung của bộ
phim tệ thì tôi không nghĩ nghĩ rằng nó có thể trở thành một thành công mặc dù có sự
tham gia những ngôi sao nổi tiếng trong đó. Đã có rất nhiều ví dụ về những bộ phim có
các diễn viên có giải thưởng oscar nhưng vẫn thất bại khủng khiếp do cách kể chuyện tồi
tệ/ thảm hại.
I wouldn’t think so. The strategy has some undeniable effects yes, for example it can
definitely gain popularity at the beginning, because you know, the actors are well-known
who have a huge number of loyal fan. But if the content of the movie is bad then, I
wouldn’t think it could become a success eventhough it has famous stars in it. There have
been so many examples of movies that have actors with oscar awards but still fail terribly
due to bad storytelling
Question 2. Do you think that older people like to watch movies of their generation
more than modern ones?
Nó còn tuỳ vào sở thích cá nhân mỗi người. Bố tôi thích xem những phim cũ nhưng mà
ông tôi thì lại thích phim hành động kiểu mới, hihi. Tuy nhiên, từ những gì tôi thấy thì
phần lớn mọi người sẽ muốn xem cái gì đó mà tương tự/ giống họ, ở một vài góc độ nào
đó thì là như vậy. Điều này sẽ đúng với người lớn tuổi bởi vì họ ghét những thứ mới.
Đồng ý không?^
It is all down to everyone’s personal preference really. My father loves watching old
movies but my grandfather loves modern action movies instead. But from what I can see,
the vast majority of people would want something that are similar to them to some
degree. This is especially true with older people since they tend to hate new things.
