This travel guide is people who want to visit Sapa, one of the most scenic places in the country It is located in north-western Vietnam about 350 kilometers from Hanoi Peoplecan go there by coach or train It usually takes around 6-7 hours to get there The best time to travel there is from September to November or from March to May because the

weather is sunny during daytime and cold at night In Sapa, you can visit Mount Fansipan by cable in 30 minutes It is the highest peak in Vietnam and even all of Indochina.

Moreover, you can explore some famous place like Ham Rong, the Silver waterfall, the Sky Gate,… For the more adventurous foodies, Sapa has some interesting localspecialities, such as ‘thang co’ – (horse meat soup), and surprisingly for a mountain region, ‘salmon sour hotpot! Hope that the travel guide will help you have a good time in here

Nha Trang, the capital of Khanh Hoa province, has one of the most popular municipal beaches in all of Vietnam In Nha Trang, nature beauties are so tempting.Waves crashing onto the cliffs; the soft sigh of the sea breeze; clean white sands and turquoise waters; it all makes for a stunning landscapes On my visit to NhaTrang, I used to get up early each morning to stroll along the beach – a chance to breath in the fresh sea air and enjoy the sunrise across the water Oneattraction that captivated me three years ago and still it does is the collection of small offshore islands Hon Tre is the largest of the islands, and Monkey island is,

as the name suggests, the home of hundreds of wild monkeys Yen island is known for its swifts’ nests

Nha Trang is one of the greatest holiday destination I hope to have chance to come back

5 WH= questions : What/ Where? Why/ When/ Who, How ?

Cách nói đơn giản như sau:

12

1 My topic is that reading habits should be encouraged among teenagers In my opinion, it is true to say so because of the following reasons.

2 Firstly/ First and foremost, I would say that reading increases knowledge (When I read books, I can learn a lot of things about the world

around)

3 Secondly/ In addition, it is true that reading reduces stress (When I read books, I feel very comfortable because many books are very

interesting.)

4 Finally/ Another important reason is that reading improves memory (because when we read books, our brains are more active)

5 In short, I strongly agree that + reading habits should be encouraged among teenagers because of the reasons I have presented.

Ví dụ: Living in the countryside has many advantages

Ví dụ: People can enjoy the fresh air

● Hoặc là biến thành Danh từ + tobe + adj

Ví dụ: Neighbours are very friendly

It is cheap to live in the countryside because the cost of products/ goods is not expensive

5 WH= questions : What/ Where? Why/ When/ Who, How ?

Ví dụ: Topic: Smoking should be banned in public places. 

Smoking

● Second-hand smoker’s health 

● Financial burden 

Câu trả lời I am going to talk about smoking It is said that Smoking should be banned in public places hoac

Well, I would like to talk about the disadvantages of smoking To me, the first disadvantage is that it is bad for a smoker's health For example, it is very dangerous for people

to smoke.  …cause……lung cancer…

Secondly, another disadvantage of smoking is the second-hand smoker’s health because it is not good for the second-hand smokers to get the smoke / fumes ……. 

Finally, I shouldn’t forget financial burden because it is very expensive to buy cigarette packets

13

In my opinion, It is clear that smoking has many disadvantages.We should not smoke in public spaces

Reading books improves memory I think it is really good, especially for the old people It helps us to massage our brains everyday by maintaining reading habits

CÁCH PHÁT TRIỂN Ý TƯỞNG

14

Increase the knowledge

5 WH= questions : What/ Where? Why/ When/ Who, How?

That is all I would like to say about reading

Let’s move to the last questions

PART 3: TOPIC DEVELOPMENT

BÀI MẪU: Reading habit should be encouraged among teenagers.

● Gợi ý 1 có sẵn: increase knowledge

● Gợi ý 2 có sẵn: reduce stress

● Gợi ý 3 có sẵn: improve memories 

● Gợi ý 4 tự chuẩn bị: a better vocabulary source

Từ vựng B1 B2

● Broaden their mind: Mở mang kiến thức

● Provides knowledge and experience in: Cung cấp kiến thức và trải nghiệm về …

● Diving in the world of a book: Chìm đắm trong thế giới của sách 

● Allow their brain to exercise: Để bộ não được luyện tập 

● Beneficial: Có lợi

● Context: Ngữ cảnh

Reading habits should be encouraged among teenagers because of some reasons

Firstly, reading helps increase knowledge There are a lot of interesting things in a book, so they can broaden their mind (For example, a travel guide provides knowledge and

experience in tourism, self-help teaches them the suitable ways to live, and science helps them know more about the world.) The knowledge they receive from a book can be very

helpful in life

Secondly, reading helps reduce stress When they are diving into the world of a book, they will forget the stress, worrying or sadness It’s a good way to relax. 

Another benefit of reading is it helps improve memories People consider reading a way to allow their brain to exercise so that it can be healthy to work/ function better This

helps we memorize and remember better.

15

Lastly, it helps students have a better vocabulary source When they read, they can be exposed to and learn many new words, as well as see them in context This is very

beneficial for them to use these words correctly (Having good vocabulary source helps them better not only at reading and listening but they can also speak and write better)

To sum up, the youth should be inspired to read books due to the benefits it brings

Cuối phần thi: Trả lời thêm 3 câu hỏi liên quan chủ đề vừa trình bày

VD : Part 3 Có sơ đồ với ý : Why social networks are so popular among teenagers?

(học thuộc phần mẫu câu gạch dưới + kết hợp đọc lại chữ trong 3 ô của hình vẽ ; Ngoài ra có thể thêm ý giải thích riêng để có nhiều điểm)

(Sau đó, thí sinh trả lời thêm 3 câu hỏi theo chủ đề của phần 3 ) 

- Do you use social network sites? What are they?

Yes I do I use Facebook./ No, I don’t.

- Are there any problems with social networks?-

Yes They make users addicted and waste their time.

- Should children be encouraged to join social networks such as Facebook or Twitter?

Yes Under the control of parents

No Because it is addictive

Most importantly, the parents themselves have to set good examples for them They have to love reading books

16

1 There are some differences between the kind of book read my parents’ generation and my generation That is the old people like reading books related to history, culture, social and science, while the young like reading about love, investment, how to become rich They tend

to read something on the internet rather than books

That is all my thought / idea about the topics in the test Thank you  for your patient listening

Goodbye.Have a nice day I hope that I will pass B2 today

Answer:

23

My situation is that my English friend has just finished her studies She is going to go on holiday next week There are 3 choices for her: going on holiday with friends, family or alone My advice is that she should go on holiday with her family because of the following reasons:

The first reason is that she has not met her family for a long time because she has been busy with her studies at the university This is an excellent opportunity for her as well

as other members in her family to meet , to share feelings, experiences or understand one another Moreover, all the members in her family would have a good time to take care of

one another and enjoy the close atmosphere together I believe that this would be the most memorable holiday for her……

Although going out with friends or alone have some advantages to some extent But, I don’t think that going on holiday with her friends or alone is better for her Because

she usually meets her friends at the university and sometimes has a short holiday at the weekends with them Going on holiday alone is very boring and sometimes it is very dangerous if she goes to a place like a mountain climbing trip

Taking everything into consideration/ Overall/ In short, she had better enjoy her holiday with her family Hoac Enjoying a holiday with her family is the best choice for her.

Ways to keep fit and stay healthy

How to stay healthy.

-Do morning exercise- WHAT- WHERE- WHO- WHEN- WHY- HOW

-Eat more vegetables

-Avoid drinking alcohol

Your own idea: Prevention is better than cure : phòng bệnh hơn chữa bệnh

Have regular medical check

Do meditation ////// optimistic lifestyle ( think positively)

Not stay up late/ No smoking balance life

Today, I would like to talk about health And there are many ways to keep fit and stay healthy

The first thing/ step is that we should do morning exercise ( What/ Where? Why/ When/ Who, How)… We should get up early to do some physical activities such as walking, running or dancing in a green plant park to breathe the fresh air early in the morning Nowadays, in the big cities there are less parks for people to enjoy physical activities

However, we can do gentle yoga or meditation (thiền) on our own bed or on the floor These activities will recharge much more energy for our body to start a new working day

The second thing/ step is that we should eat more vegetables in order to provide various vitamins and minerals for our body's growth It is proven that vegetables are fibers

which are so good for our digestive system It will help to remove the waste out of the body, reduce fat in blood and maintain a healthy balance for our body

The last one is that hoặc là Lastly hay Finally, we should avoid drinking alcohol Because alcohol is harmful for our heart and brain Drinking too much wine and beer, our memory will be damaged , blood pressure will probably get higher and it is one of the main causes for liver cancer.

amount of alcohol and soft drinks Besides, most importantly, we should keep ourselves in good and peaceful spirits without any stress -283 w

That is all I would like to talk about health

Let’s move to the last questions

1 What are the benefits of good health?- Well , let me show you ……you know

As you know, good health brings a lot of benefits The first thing is that good health includes both mental and physical health It helps us have a smart brain/clear mind to play,to learn or to work well and get more success and happiness in our life Secondly, if we have good health, we would not have to go to the hospital, so it will reduce the burden of social anxiety about having too many patients in the hospital Lastly, having good health means owning the most precious gift in life

24

· 2 What are the most popular ways of keeping healthy in your country?

-In my country, probably many people do physical exercise And some young people go to the gym Some do yoga/meditation  to relax to balance life .It is said that  it  is one

of the most popular ways to stay healthy Also, it is easy to train for everyone from children to older People can exercise in a narrow place like the bed, floor, balcony as well as inparks or in fitness centers

Moreover , eating  organic food habit is an excellent way to keep you away from illness.  There is an English saying: An/ One apple everyday, keep the doctor away   -Most importantly, we should have Good spirits     / think positively     keep calm

t

-Health plays a very important role in our life There are many ways to keep healthy such as having a scientific eating behaviour with fresh, less fat and sugar foods, exercising daily and so on In our country, I think that the most popular way of keeping healthy is daily.exercise Old and young people often jog in the early morning in the parks, others go

to the gym, fitness or yoga centres after finishing their work Children often go to the swimming pool, sport clubs or dancing clubs and so on

· 3 What is more important, physical health or mental health?

-Well It is an interesting question I think that they are the same

Now, let’s compare physical health and mental health It is hard to say which one is more important In my opinion, mental health plays an important role in maintaining good

physical health and vice versa

The first thing is that good mental health includes social, emotional and psychological well-being Our mental health affects how we think, how we behave and feel It also

controls our emotions with ways of how to handle stress, and how to socialize with others So, good mental health will lead to good physical activities For example, some mentaldiseases like depression and anxiety are causes for disappointment and unhappy life Some of them may lead to commit suicide and suddenly bring a great pain to your beloved ones

In contrast, physical health is defined by one’s physical condition It depends on various factors such as lifestyle, diet, hygiene, physical fitness, etc Physical health can be improved by exercising regularly, having a proper diet, drinking more water, maintaining proper hygiene, getting enough sleep In addition, Good physical health can help us to

maintain mental health For instance, doing exercises would help the brain to release endorphins which relieve stress and pain, triggering a positive feeling The fact shows that

the food we eat everyday may be related to how we feel A proper diet which is rich in vegetables and nutrients is associated with a feeling of well-being If we have a fitness body, we will feel more confident to wear different clothes like long dresses, skirts, etc as well as to socialize with everybody

In conclusion, in my view, metal health is as important as physical health They both go hand in hand, so we should value both mental health and physical health equally That is all my thought / idea about the topics for the test Thank you for your patient listening

Part 2: Solution discussion (4 min)

Situation: A school is going to build a new sports centre for students There are 3 different sports the students could do in the sports centre: swimming, cycling, playing tennis Which is the best for your students? What is your advice?

Answer:

My situation is that a school is going to build a new sports centre for students There are different sports the student could do in the sports centre: swimming, cycling and playing tennis

In my opinion, I think that swimming is the best new sport for the students in the centre because of the following reasons

The 1 st reason is that swimming is a healthy activity which is a necessary survival skill for all students both the girls and the boys According to some statistics, the rate

of death for drowning in children in my country is very high So, swimming is a new sport in the centre I think it would be the best way to resolve that problem.The second reason is that swimming helps them relax after stressful studying time Water is a good therapy In addition, it makes our bodies slim and healthy

27

Although cycling and playing tennis have some advantages to some extent, I don’t choose them because I think that they are not suitable for students at this time

These sports need strong health and waste much more energy, so they should be advisable when they become adults

In short, swimming is a good idea that students could do in the sports centre-200 w

The advantages of cycling are many

First, healthy, you can exercise while riding, and you can breathe aerobic outdoors

Second, cycling can find a lot of fun You can see different things and beautiful scenery during cycling Traveling around the world can be ized as long as you have a dream

real-Third, losing weight is definitely a good exercise for people who don’t like exercise This exercise is not high-intensity, but you can exercise very happily

Fourth, it’s very romantic to ride with your partner and experience some beautiful things together

There are few shortcomings The price of bicycles is a bit high and it is easy to be stolen Girls will get thicker legs if they ride frequently

This is the end of part 2 Let’s move to part 3

Part 3: Topic development (5m)

Buying something online

· -Save time and energy- WHAT- WHERE- WHO- WHEN- WHY- HOW

· Go shopping at any time

· Items deliver to your house

Now, I would like to talk about the topic “buying something online” It is said that it really has many benefits

The first advantage is that buying something online saves time and energy We only stay at home, searching for items we need on a smartphone or computer via

connecting to the internet We don’t waste time, energy going to the store to buy something …

The second thing is that we can go shopping online at any time The internet shops are open for 24 hours a day, it is unnecessary to close on time as traditional ones, so

we can buy something anytime when we have free time So, It is convenient for people who are busy all day with their work, they only have free time at night or midnight toaccess the internet to buy something

The last thing is that - when buying something online, items will be delivered to our door Instead of going to the stores to buy and bring home some items by ourselves,

we only wait at home to get our online orders The items will be transferred by a shipper of the store or via a transportation company We can check them when receiving, if they have any mistakes you can comment and give feedback easily to the store on its website

In conclusion, buying something online has many advantages like the above mentioned However, in my opinion, because we can not see or touch the items physically or

can not try it on, we should also have a careful choice before deciding to buy something online to avoid getting defective items or online fraud.-269 w

28

That is the end of my about…… Let’s move to the next three questions

1.What are the benefits of buying things online?

As it is mentioned above, buying things online has some advantages such as saving time and energy, and we can buy the product whenever we want and items are shipped

to our house We only stay at home, at the coffee or office to order items we want on internet shops Besides, many similar items from many internet shops will appear at

the same time in front of our eyes with prices ranging from low to high and you can read many comments from customers buying ever So you can easily compare the prices

and choose the most suitable things In addition, we can easily order goods which are so far from our living place even if it is abroad.

2.What are the things that you often buy from Internet shops?

Clothes/ stuff/ electronic devices on Shopee… ( E-commerce)

Nowadays, there is a diversity of items in internet shops, we can easily choose and buy some things online As for me, I often buy some fresh fruits or some clothes for all

of my family from my friends' fan pages Because they make me believe in the quality of the goods

3.What is more popular internet shopping or traditional shopping?

Although, in recent years, internet shopping is developing rapidly with many advantages However, in my opinion, traditional shopping is still more popular than online

shopping for some following reasons

Firstly, traditional shopping has been our habit for a long time Most people have known about this way to buy some things You can go to the stores to try on clothes or

smell and in some cases even taste before buying them You can check the material, see the design or you will get the product immediately after finishing payment So youwill feel comfortable and like yourself with the products to bring home You will get less risks of fraud or mistakes than online purchasing

The second thing is that not all people can connect to the internet for shopping One has to have a computer or a smartphone connected to the internet and in some cases

you have to register an account you just can buy the items online This work needs more time to study and only work easily in a big city where the internet network is developed In some small towns and especially in mountainous areas which are so far from the city centre, there is no internet access or its network lines are often very slow

In conclusion, in my opinion, traditional shopping and online shopping are two common ways to buy things However, traditional shopping is more popular than online one.

That is all my thought / idea about the topics in the test Thank you  for your patient listening Goodbye.

Enjoy your nice day! I hope that I can pass B2 today.

Topic: Negative effects of smartphones on students

· Reduce study time- WHAT/WHERE/ WHEN/ WHY/ WHO/ HOW

· Do harm to health

· Cause traffic accidents

· Your own ideas

1.What are the positive effects of smartphones?

2.Do you think that teachers should stop their students using smartphones in the class?

3.In what way can parents help their children use smart phones effectively?

Answer’

Today, my topic is about smartphones It is commented/ (said/ thought ) that there are some negative effects of smartphones on students.

 The first bad thing is that smartphones will reduce the study time of students Nowadays, smartphones are designed with many attractive applications which can make the

students be addicted , that is,  they can play games, watch TV, movies, take photographs, video or check messages or comments on the Facebook pages owned by themselves 

and of their friends They usually attend these activities and forget the time when they have to stop So, they will spend less time studying.

The second drawback is that using smartphones for a long time will be harmful to students’ health The eyes will become weaker from having to see too much light on the screen of smartphones The radiation from smartphones can be negatively effective on their brain And using smartphones for a long time makes the students reduce some physical activities like swimming, football, dancing and so on Therefore, their health would certainly be damaged

The last one is that some students have a bad habit of listening or calling or checking smartphones while they are moving in the street This can cause traffic accidents and

badly affects the life of themselves, family and surrounding people.-216 w

32

1. Cell phones are for emergency use only on the road. One of the worst habits anyone can get into is talking on a cell phone while driving Keep a cell phone with

you in the car for emergency situations only If you have to use a cell phone, pull safely over to the side of the road

In conclusion, besides many advantages of smartphones, there are still some disadvantages Therefore, in my opinion, the students should learn how to use smartphones  wisely

before deciding to take it

Let’s move to the last three questions

1. What are the positive effects of smartphones?- Contact- entertainment-online learning/ working

Nowadays, smartphones have become an indispensable part of our life for its positive effects.

Firstly, smartphones are the most popular and quick communication, they are small enough for you to bring them everywhere and every time They can use them without direct

electric connection if they are fully charged  

Secondly, smartphones have many attractive and useful applications For example, you can read the news on internet magazines and know all fields of what is happening all

over the world You can take many memorable photographs of your own with your family or friends You can relax via smartphones by listening to music, watching TV game shows or online shopping 

Lastly, smartphones can be used for your online learning  as well as for searching the necessary information for study./ work

In conclusion, smartphones have both pros and cons However, in my opinion, the advantages of smartphones far outweigh the disadvantages Therefore, we should have a

further consideration in this issue to take full advantage of pros and minimize cons.

2. Do you think that teachers should stop their students using smartphones in the class?

 It is debatable whether: teachers should stop their students using smartphones in the class or not?

From my point of view of course, yes they should Because using smartphones in the class will make the students not concentrate on the teacher's lessons. They would tend to

use smartphones for other purposes

3. In what way can parents help their children use smart phones effectively?

I think parents should set good models for them to follow then we can give them useful advice on how to use it smartly. Also, we should analyze some good use of

smartphones for educational purposes and communication only, However, our children would be better warned about the serious drawbacks of smartphones such as overuse of it may lead to addiction and so on. 

It is a hard question But let me think

That is all my ideas about the topics Thank you for your patient listening Goodbye Have a nice day
