E2) Nowadays, more and more people are travelling to English-speaking countries
to continue their education Undoubtedly, if a person wants to make a career, he has to be fluent in English It is clear, that the fastest way of learning another
tongue is to be in the language environment Otherwise, no matter how many books you have read, you might still not be able to communicate, because of the lack of practice
In my opinion, There are lots of advantages in studying English First of all, it is
an international language and in most of the countries, it is either the second language or the official language With the increasing effects of globalization people have to move to other countries for many reasons and in most of the cases, English is the only common language to interact with people So for the communication people have no other choice but to learn and use English
Secondly, most of the countries use English as an official language and use it while the interview So get a better job one must be proficient in English A
person who is not flexible using the English language is often found in a situation where he/she has to hesitate to meet the foreign delegates and that is why often does not get the proper chances for promotion even after having the appropriate merit So to increase the opportunities and job position especially in a
multinational organisation, one must be fluent in English Finally, most of the books, thesis papers and internet article are either written in English language or can be found in translated in English So to enrich someone's perspective and knowledge, one must be good at using English
In conclusion, the world is considered to be a single city today and there must exist a common language and common language is English People learn this language to walk with the current trend and there is no alternative, and even those
Trang 2who like to learn the language from English-speaking countries and this is quite reasonable
E3) Everyone has a favorite sport I like every sport, but my favorite sport is
football, I like to watch and play it b/c of the love I have for football, the
physicality of the game, and the life skill when I play it
Like other sports, football provides plenty of opportunities for exercise Football helps develop numerous types of fitness skills including speed, agility and power Players may lose body fat, gain lean muscle and increase the likelihood of maintaining healthy habits throughout life
Second, football helps increases the teamwork Football is truly a team game With 11 players on each side of the ball, everyone is counted on to play their individual role There's a tremendous amount of accountability required from each player to do a specific job on every play
This teamwork helps children become accustomed to working with others, a skill that is required in almost every profession
Finally, playing football also improves my social skills Competitive sports help teach teamwork, which translates into selflessness, cooperation and better
communication skills The structure of the game fosters important life skills, such
as leadership, goal-setting and time-management skills
The game of football can always provide someone with great opportunity It always gives people that feel like they have nothing something to hope for Being part of a football team is something that will never be regretted Anyone who wants to be a part of
something they can cherish forever, I definitely recommend playing the game of football.

so what do you think necessary is important for a long lasting friendship
The first element in true friendship is trust in each other Friendship is a very
special bond which stands on the pillars of trust and loyalty You should be able to share your deepest secret with your best friend without the fear of the secret being leaked If you don’t feel that your friend is loyal to you, what is the whole point of spending time or being friends with that person? A true friendship is a one where you can trust each other and know that your friend will always be loyal to you The loyalty can’t be lack in friendship Loyalty means protecting our friendship, being willing to be there for them during difficult times

friends when they are feeling wary from life It means protecting your friends spiritual state, by encouraging them in the word and looking for ways to build them up when they feel others may be tearing them down And the finally is the Empathetic Building a deep and lasting friendship requires you show empathy with your friends Allow your Friends to be angry, hurt, sad or scared, affirm them in the emotions that they are
feeling in that moment Allow your friends to cry and simply listen to them, by doing so, you are there for your friend in a very powerful way Friends add happiness to life They make you forget all your problems and add colors to your life My life is so very unimaginable without my friends!

Trang 4E8) From very beginning of my schooling day as far as I remember, I have an
attraction for Mathematics Mathematics always gives me extra energy and
satisfaction in my study I never feel anything boring about this Subject My
favorite subjects in school are math and science Math is my favorite subject because it is fun It is like a mystery to find the answer It can be challenging and can take steps sometimes I like science too because it is about discoveries One reaction can create another reaction If the people that are doing the experiment are not careful, they may get the wrong reaction
Many different jobs use math and science Science is used to find cures for people who are sick Doctors and nurses use math to
measure how much medicine to give to people Salespeople need to know math to count money Architects need to know math to design buildings Pilots use these subjects to fly a plane All of these people use math and science daily to measure, pay and count Math and science are needed and used all around the world That is why math and science are so important
E9) There is so much that students can do with the Internet Not only can they
communicate with international students, they can gain from others' knowledge and experiences, participate in chatrooms, share ideas and solutions and learn about the many diverse cultures out there
While the Internet does a lot for students, there are also benefits for parents and
teachers The interactive learning that the Internet provides can help students and parents with little or no English skills to learn English Parents can become more involved in their children's education by connecting the school with homes, libraries
or other access ports
Trang 5Teachers can adjust to the different learning styles and in the classroom They can also set their own pace of teaching Individual teaching techniques can become more available, which has been proven to be a factor in student achievement
Teachers have the chance to be able to teach at more than one place simultaneously They may be in a small town but through the Internet, they can be linked to students
in more populated areas
Also, the Internet enables administrators and teachers to spend less time on
administration and recordkeeping This would also give them more time to spend with their students

E11)
I prefer playing sports to just watching sports There are two reasons why I think
so First, through playing sports, I can understand how hard the sports are When I watch soccer game on TV, I don't know how the soccer players are feeling at that time, but when I actually play soccer, I feel that I can understand the players' feelings Second, playing sports give me opportunities to have good friendship with the teem mates In fact, the team mates I played soccer with when I belonged
to soccer club in my high school are still good friends, That's why I prefer playing sports to watching sports
E7) Tet Holiday is the biggest annual celebration of Vietnam in the first days of lunar New Year If you are a foreign tourist, you have to join this festival in VN, you can be given a lot of impression from that cultural and VNese
Trang 7it takes place from the first day of the first month of the Lunar calendar until at least the third day Tet holiday is very special for Vietnamese families to reunite and celebrate together.The preparation for Tet holiday is taken place very soon All members of families clean and redecorate their houses together Then, they buy food, drink such as cookies, sweets, jam, melon seeds to offer their A branch of peach flower or a kumquat tree cannot be absent from every home during these special days We decorate ancestral altars with a five-fruit tray many Vietnamese families make Chung cake, pickled onion, frozen meat, which are our country's traditional food on Tet holiday
In the last day of the previous year, Everybody all waits for the sacred moment when the clock points 0 am and fireworks light up everywhere to wish for health, lucks and happiness in the next year From noon on, everybody go to their
neighbors' houses to wish them a happy new year Children in new clothes are very excited, as they will get lucky money from adults
There are many activities to welcome new coming spring in this occasion Children usually take up pens to write their first essay, hoping for good results in school In spring festivals, everyone especially the young takes part in the traditional games such as rollercoaster, tug of war, cooking rice, cock fighting etc to express their happiness
"Tet" is the word that is very familiar to Vietnamese people whenever we think about our country This is the time for family reunion, for festivals, and for people
to give love to their loved one As for me, I enjoy the warm and cozy Tet's
atmosphere when all members of my family stay and talk together
Trang 8E6) Forming strong friendships is one of the most important aspects of life as a student A lot of people tried their best to look for these friends whether it takes some payment in form of material and spiritual So why do people compete in looking for friends? There are some reasons why people strive to having a lot of friends
First, having many different friends can teach us about life and the world I think you can learn many things about many different countries if you know people from all over the world For example, if you have a friend from China and one from Iran, you can learn more about those two countries If you just have friends from your country, then you do not learn very much about the world.
We can also have many different kinds of experiences if we have many different kinds of friends For example, some people like sports, others like music, still others like to study If
we have many different friends with many different interests, then we can never feel bored and we can have a happy life.
Finally, if we have many different friends, then maybe we can have more help from people when we need it For example, if we need some kind of help with something, but we don’t know too many people, then it might be difficult for us to get help However, if we know many people, then it will be easy for us to find help when we need it.
Therefore, I believe that it is better to have many different friends in our lives Having many friends can teach us about the world, we can have more fun with different friends, and we can get help more easily if we have many different friends.
