with dark brown hair. She is kissing the man in the middle I think he is her dad. He is giving the

behind the family and outside there are some trees.

13. Describle the picture
This picture is all about winter. I can see three people, they are crossing the street and they are
wearing winter clothes. i can see they’re weariing jackets and boots and I can see in the
background there are two lines of cars and these lines of cars are covered with the snow and in

countries it is wintertime they are crossing the street. They may be going to work or study and
they definitely don’t look happy.
14. What is your favorite season and why?
I love summer. Summertime is the best time for me because it is sunny, it is bright. I can do
many things, I can go out, I can visit my family and friends, I can go to the beach. There are
many things because the days are longer and I have some free times so it coincides with vacation
time and this is a time in which I actually catch up on things that I haven’t been able to do by
then and I love the sun, I love to just spend afternoons watching and people doing things in the
park and just relaxing. That’s why this is my favorite time.
15. Why is it important to know future weather conditions in advanced?
I think it is really important because when you know the future what the conditions you can plan
for what you’re going to do. So you can plan ahead and this happens to me depending on the
activities I am going to do. I like to consult on weather conditions the weather forecast because it
sometimes I have to do something outdoors and I want to know if it is going to rain, if it is going
to be sunny or foggy. I believe it is important because especially when you work ourdoors you
really want to know what the weather is going to be like so you can know the kinds of clothes
you’re going to wear and the kind of activitiesyou are going to be able to do.
16. So sánh 2 bức tranh
In the first picture you see a man sitting and working on a computer. He is reading and he is
about to type something. In the second picture, I can see somebody is studying taking notes
writing things and a piece of paper. Those are two different things. In the first one for instance
the man doesn’t have to write, he has the type but in the second one the person has to do all the
handwriting by himself. I would say and sometimes he can require more concentration because
when you write down things by hands you can actually concentrate on what you’re writing the
calligraphy and many things ralated it goes beyond typing.
17. Which method of writing do you prefer? Why?
I prefer typing because it’s much faster. When I get the hang of it when I know how to type and
it happened to me when I learnt it I discovered I was able to type and writ words at a faster

@miewmiewmiew
paceand this actually benefited me because I was able to express my ideas more fluently
knowing that the minute I thought about an idea could ride immediately and faster writing by
hand is good but I believe it is just not as practical as writing on a computer or a cell phone or a
smartphone because I believe it could be faster and the information could be shared much better
than if I write it down on a piece of paper.
18. Do you think our lives have been improved by the internet? Why?
I totally believe so, I believe internet has improved our lives beacause we can actually
communicate at much faster way, we can actually do business we can grow, we can share
information and these only happen when we started using the internet. There are some negative
side to using the internet but I believe it all depends on how you use it. In my opinion, with the
internet we can actually do more accomplish more, be more productive, learn more, share more
and this is something that couldn’t have happened without the internet in our lives. I believe it is
the best thing.
19. Today I am going to talk about the benefits of reading books, so I would like to start by
saying that a book is like a gardening carried in a pocket which is a chinese proverb so what can
I say about reading books. First off all, reading books is very important for you because it
exercises your brain, the more you read, the better you can think because by reading. I believe
you can activate a lot of neuronal connections in your brain and you are going to actually be able
to do more so reading also provides knowledge and information so the more you read, the more
you know and this is crucial in the world we libe in. No one makes a difference. Another
important aspect of reading is that books are good topic of conversation so if you are a good
reader, you can usually handle good conversations people aregoing to see you as a very
intelligent person who they can talk to. Another important aspect is that it reading reduces stress
and puts you in a better mood depending on what you read. You should read good things so you
can actually feel better if you report tree. If you reading good novels and reading is a great free
entertainment because you’re just once you get a book you don’t even have to buy a book you
can go to rent it on a library you can actually have a good time and that is at no cost finally
reading improves concentration and focus you can be more focused when you are able to read a
lot you can focus on your things and I would like to end uo by saying that reaches the language
and vocabulary you have and it is good because actually you can be a better talker you can have
variable calculus.
