Situation 1: You and your classmates are having a discussion about the role of technology
in themodern world. In your opinion, which is the most important digital device: a
computer, asmartphone or a satnav? Give reasons to support your ideas.
In my opinion, I firmly believe that smartphones are the most important digital device
comparedto computers and satnav because of 2 main reasons.Firstly, it is suitable in
a price, a smartphone with a multi functions like … is very useful foreverone.Secondly,
smartphone is convenient and flexible, since it is pretty small so people can bring it
toeverywhere and it may show off their personality or fashion.For the remaining 2
devices, the computer is quite large so it is difficult to carry, a satellitenavigation is not
very common for ordinary people.In conclusion, from a personal point of view
smartphones are the most important in modern life today.
Situation 2:The nursing home where you are working is looking for some disability
support workers. Youare writing a job advertisement. Which do you think is the most
important quality that a persondoing this job must have: cheerfulness, patience, or
sympathy? Why do you think so?In my opinion, to work in a place like a nursing home
the most important quality is patience because of two main factors.Firstly, the main job in
a nursing home is to take care of the elder who may be strict, so nursesneed to practice
patiencein their work to alwayssatisfy the people they serve.The second reason is that
patience not only helps you overcome temporary difficulties, but also brings more
benefits in the future like job opportunities, improve relationships, thereby makingwork
more favorable.
Regarding cheerfulness, it can be found in other things and sympathy can be obtained
through a period of work, but without patience you cannot start work.In conclusion, after
pros and cons, I think patience is most important when working in a nursinghome.

Situation 3: You are on a 3-day trip to Hanoi. You would like to learn about cultural
features ofthis city. Which activity would you like to do most: going to the theater, going
to a museum orvisiting an art gallery? Why do you want to do this activitiy?Well, I find it
is a tough decision, but I’ll opt for going to the museum to learn about the
culturalfeatures of Hanoi for 2 main of reasons.Firstly, at the museum, you can learn
about the history of Hanoi through works or architectureswhich have existed for a long
time and showedformidable feats of forefathers.Secondly, its cost is also pretty cheap and
it is possible to take pictures of great treasures here.In terms of going to the theater, it is
difficult for you to communicate to learn about the cultureand visiting an art gallery is
quite expensive for a trip up to 3 days long.From those reasons I think the museum is the
best choice to find out about Hanoi crane culture.

Situation 4: You and your friends are talking about forms of street art including graffiti,
chalkdrawings on pavements and street music. Which of these art forms do you like
most? Givereasons for your answer.Among the types of street art, for me, street music is
the best thing compared to the rest of thesubjects.The reason I find street music the best is
because Street music is an open space which anyonecan enjoy it without barriers.The
next reason, Street Music is a public entertainment activity servingresidents and
visitorsinthe city that has existed for the longest time so far with a very small
organization cost.The last reason, street music can bring people from all walks of life
together to create acommunity among the people.( lấy 2 ý thôi, 2 trong 3 cái nào cũng đc
nếu nhớ)
As for street art such as graffiti and chalk drawings on pavements, some people will
consider itan act of dirtying the street.In conclusion, after pros and cons I think street
music is the best of all kinds of street art.

Situation 5: You and your friends are talking about reading habits. Tell them which you
preferreading: paper novels, e-novels or cellphone novels. Give reasons to support your
ideas.There are many ways to read novels but for me paper novels are still the best choice
because oftwo main reasons.
The first reason is that Reading a paper novel helps us to remember the content as well as
itssequence and position in the book more easily.The second reason is reading paper
novel helps us to limit being nearsighted / short-sighted (2cái đều là cận thị) thanks to
avoid blue light from smartphones or electronic reader.For e-novels or cellphone novels,
it requires that things like wifi, mobile data, computer screensand most of them are also
harmful to eyes.From those reasons, I think the paper novel is the best choice.

Situation 6: You are planning to make a trip to a moutain for a few days with your
penfriendwhile he or she is visiting you this summer. Which type of accommodation do
you like most:self-catering apartments, hotels or campsites? Explain your choice.In my
personal opinion, I will opt for a camping site when traveling to the mountains because
oftwo main factorsFirstly, the campsites with a tranquil space and fresh air will give you
mental relaxation, helpsyou let your hair down after a working or studying
hectic.Secondly, the campsite also saves you money because the cost of the campsite is
pretty cheap.Finally, you can immue the nature and do a lot of outdoor activities with
your buddies likecooking, pitching the tents or campfires, this helps you build and
strengthen your relationships.(3 ý trên chọn 2 trong 3, nào cũng đc)Regarding apartments
and hotels, they may cost you an arm and a leg and there are someregulations that make it
uncomfortable.In short, the campsite is the best choice for your trip to the mountains as it
has everything youneed for your vacation.
