“Like there's never been a breakup” with the hope that the program could find my uncle So this email is exactly what we've been waiting for for the past 3 years

ADVERTISEMEN
T
Describe an
advertisement you
have seen or read that
you like
- What it is?
- Where you first saw
it
- Why you like it
- Whether
advertisement is
necessary or not,
why?
Today, advertising is very developed, it appears in many different media
I love the advertisement for vinamilk for children I saw this ad for the first time on TV
I love this ad because it's so funny with cute, chubby kids
On the other hand, since I often have to buy milk for my baby, I am interested in the information provided by the milk advertisements
I think advertising is very necessary Because it provides information about products to consumers, through which consumers have information to choose products and suppliers will sell more
5 ENVIRONMENT Global climate change makes natural disasters more
Trang 6Describe a natural
disaater you have
experienced
- What that disaster
was?
- When you
experienced it?
- What you did?
- How you felt about
it?
frequent
I once experienced a natural disaster, it was a big flood that took place in Nghe An - my hometown - in 2021
I still remember clearly, those days it rained very heavily, the hydroelectricity released floods, and the water rose rapidly We had to run very fast to the high hills to avoid the flood and wait for help The flood swept away many houses and people's possessions
I felt very worried and scared when all sides were water At the same time, I am also happy and warm when people help and encourage me
Task 3: Topic Discussion
1 FOOD (món ăn)
a Do you think large fast-food companies should be allowed to target at children in their advertising campaigns? Why
Advertising is a very important activity in any business, including fast food companies The question is whether large fast food companies should be allowed to target children in their advertising campaigns, and my answer is no Because of:
- First of all, Fast food is not good for your health Fast food high in sugar, salt, and fat can cause weight gain, obesity, and kidney disease
- On the other hand, children often like to watch ads and like to follow ads Therefore, if fast food companies advertise to children, it will cause children's fast food consumption to increase, which is not good for children's health
In a nutshell, big fast food companies are not allowed to target children in their advertising campaigns, it is unnecessary and harmful to children
Trang 7b How important is food as a representative of a country’s culture?
As a representative of the culture of a country, the cuisine is very important Each country's unique cuisine may reflect its unique history, lifestyle, values, and beliefs For example, banh chung, banh day represent the concept of harmony between heaven and earth, people, and wet rice civilization in Vietnamese culture
Each country has its own unique dishes that represent its country's cuisine and culture, just like Vietnam's Pho
c Compare the importance of local and imported goods for the economy
of a country?
I think, Both local and imported goods are important for the economy of a country:
- Domestic goods are produced in the country, taking advantage of domestic raw materials, cheap prices, creating jobs for workers thereby developing the country's economy, improving people's living standards On the other hand, domestic goods are not dependent on foreign countries, helping the national economy to be self-sufficient For example, Vietnam is an agricultural country with enough production capacity to meet the needs of the domestic people, so our country is not greatly affected by the world food crisis
- The role of imported goods in each country's economy is reflected in the fact that it promotes the development of the domestic economy due to competition For example, Thai rice imported into Vietnam requires the Vietnamese agricultural industry to improve the quality and output of rice production to compete with Thai rice At the same time, imported goods also increase the choice of people, thereby stimulating consumption, and contributing to the economic development of the country
In summary, I think domestic goods and imported goods are both important to the economy of each country, in which domestic goods are the mainstay
Trang 82 FREE TIME ACTIVITY
A, Would you agree that it is important for older or retired people to keep themselves busy? Can you suggest some suitable activities?
I don't think elderly or retired people need to keep themselves busy Because, they have had a whole life to be busy with work, children, family, and life pressures Old age is the time when they need to rest, relax and enjoy a comfortable life They should only read books, do gentle exercise, chat with
friends and play with their children and grandchildren.
B, In your opinion, do young people have enough or too much leisure time? Why/Why not?
I think it will be difficult to say whether young people have enough or too much leisure time Because it depends on the person, depending on the age, depending
on the time management of each person In general, young people today do not have much leisure time because they have too much to learn, too much to do, too much pressure in life However, for those who know how to manage their time, they still have free time to relax On the contrary, young people who do not know how to organize their work will always be busy and do not have enough leisure time Besides, there will be young people who lack a sense of responsibility to themselves, their families and society, they do nothing, of course they have too much leisure time
C, What new kinds of leisure activities would you like to see introduced in area which don’t currently exist? Why?
In the area where I live sports activities are limited due to a lack of venues Therefore, I really want to have sports areas so that children and adults have a place to play sports such as football, badminton, swimming Everyone who can play sports will improve their physical health substance and spirit
3 TECHNOLOGY
a Do you think technology has changed the way we communicate?
Trang 9I think technology has changed the way we communicate First of all, Technology has really opened up more ways for us to communicate with others
In addition to traditional forms of communication such as email, phone, and letters, today we can communicate via video such as skype, face time, zalo We can send messages, pictures, and voice lines on social networking platforms quickly and free Technology makes it possible for us to simultaneously communicate with many people in many different locations at the same time such as online classes, group calls
b How do job opportnities differ for those who have computer skills from those who do not.
I think, we are living in a 4.0 era, where technology devices are widely used, and people with computer skills will have more job opportunities than unskilled people
Whether you work for a small company, a large corporate, or from home, a computer will be one of the first pieces of office equipment you’re going to need People with computer skills will process work faster, more efficiently, and perform more difficult projects from there, the chances of success and promotion at work will be better So upskilling and polishing your computer literacy can greatly increase your desirability to employers This is the perfect opportunity to take on roles you might not have previously considered
d Do you think the existence of computer in schools has improved the way students learn?
Yes, I think the existence of computers in schools has improved the way students learn Such as:
Fostering online collaboration with other students
Providing curriculum support and additional information to students
Laptops help students keep track of their assignments and utilize an online school calendar
Trang 10Allowing students to receive and view assignments online and submit their work via e-mail rather than being required to print them
Improving the review process: Teachers may edit student papers and return them digitally to provide more detailed feedback
Improving students’ computer skills
Making learning more interesting for technology-savvy students
4 ENVIRONMENT
a How will climate change affect where people live in the next ten years?
I think climate change will have a big impact on where people live in the next ten years First of all, global warming is expected to continue, with some regions warming faster than others At the same time, extreme weather phenomena such as floods, cyclones, and droughts will occur more strongly The climate crisis leaves many families living in poverty with less food, less clean water, lower incomes and worsening health
b What can we do to help reduce global warming?
I think, it is important that we keep learning more about how our planet works
to understand the climate, and what is causing climate change and its impacts
We can start by changing simple things in our daily routine to minimize global warming, such as walking or biking to school or recycling, especially planting a lot of trees
5 SOCIAL ASPECTS
a How omportant do you consider o good salary is for job satisfaction?
In my opinion, a good salary is very important for job satisfaction You know, most people go to work to make money, so salary is their top concern when looking for a job A good salary will help employees feel secure and motivated
to work better For example, at present, Vietnam has many teachers who quit their jobs because the salary is not enough to live on Of course, besides salary,
