WRITING: Write a paragraph about the university you would like to apply for.
Write a paragraph about your hobbies:
Trang 4In my free time, I like sleeping, eating, watching movies or videos the most and they are my hobbies Because I am usually busy with my studying, I occasionally lack sleeping As a result, I’m vey tired, I
always crave for sleeping Furthermore, I realise that sleeping is good for health, my brain and body will relax after a deep sleep Then I will feel stronger, energetic when I wake up About eating, I am a little bit fat, so I often go on a diet But I love food very much, this is the
reason why I decide to eat whatever I like in my free time, just only in that time Finally, watching films or clips is the thing I do the most frequently in my leisure time In my opinion, seeing is the fastest way
to receive information and knowledge Besides, it can help me
entertain When I have spare time, I can not help doing these things.
