4. What are the disadvantages of wearing uniform?
The first topic I’ll speak is about uniform.
Yes, we have to wear uniforms at work. It is blue white stripe with a blue
bird wing icon and very comfortable.
I really love to uniforms of my company. I put on it eveyday. Although we
only required to wear on Monday.
For me, Wearring uniforms has many many benefits. It can distinguish of
different companies and organizations, also encourage employees in
company to cooperate, work hard together. Uniform is a way to promote, PR
the brand, the name of the companies. uniforms make us feel, look and act
professional. Specially, we don’t worry what we will wear each day.
Not every one love wearing uniform because it has some drawback For
example: a person would like to wear clothes that are suitable for her, made
of comfortable material. People will be bored with their working atmosphere
because every one wears the same things.
Uniform helps the workers bring a sense of identity within the company and the
organization. It also achieves for them a sense of belonging. Wearing the same clothes
would lead to a feeling of team spirit, and make the employees feel that they are a part of
the company.

3. What is your favorite room?
For the better part of the last 2 years, I’ve been living in a small house in a
small street in Cau Giay District with my sisters. all facilities and services are
available, like supermarkets, restaurants, fashion stores, cinemas or hospitals. I
can easily grab anything I need in just a few minutes. It only takes 20 minutes
and about 5 kilometer from my flat to my office.
My flat is not large but it has very comfortable and cozy with 1 living room
where my family spend times spend time chatting together with each other.
More over it has 2 bed rooms, 1 for me, 1 for my sisters, 1 kitchen and 1
bathroom.
Which I like most Definitely my own bedroom. It’s the personal space where I
can do whatever I want without caring about anyone. Besides, my bedroom is
an ideal place for me to avoid noise, so I tend to lock myself up in my bedroom
whenever I need to concentrate on something.
I’ve been living with 3 of my childhood friends. Our hometown is quite far from the colleges
we go to. Therefore, 4 years back, we decided to rent this mini flat to facilitate our study.
Well, the flat is not really roomy, but it’s just right for us. It is styled in a minimal way. All
the walls are painted plain white. All the rooms have big windows with bright curtains adding
a decorative touch to them. The interior design is simple, yet convenient.
I love my living room! I'm sure a lot of people say that, but I feel like my living room is the ideal
space. I spend time with family and friends there. , have my trinkets and mementos on shelves,
and at the end of the day I get to relax on the couch with family and watch television we all
enjoy. No matter where I am, I'm always aware that at the end of a long day I can look forward to
ending it on a high note in my living room.
3. Would you change anything about your home? Why / why not?
Well, perhaps I would expand the dining area. It is the common space for
family members to gather, so I think it would be nice if my house’s dining
room could be a little more spacious.
Answer 2: That was never my plan. Two years ago I decided to rent a
room here because my house was too far and it took me forever to get to
my office. But I only stay here for maybe 1 or 2 years more before I can
afford a house of my own.
Unfortunately, no. There is not enough space for a garden in our flat, but
I would love to have one in the future. I think every household needs a
green space, not only because it is aesthetically pleasing, but also
because it is a good way to get in touch with the natural world.
I’ve been living here since 2016, so it’s 2 years more or less although I
did spend 6 months living in HCM city. I thought about moving
somewhere else, but living here is pretty great and fun. Besides it’s really
close to my office.
10. What’s the difference between where you are living now and
where you have lived in the past?
11. Which room does your family spend most of the time in?
Probably the kitchen where we eat together. Unlike other families in town,
we don’t watch TV very often, at least I don’t watch TV so we never sit
together in the living room. Dinner is the only time of day that we all sit
together and enjoy our meals.
12. Are the public transport facilities to your home very good?
Not even slightly! The bus stations are always crowded with people who
are really inappropriate and always talking out loud. The floors are so
dirty that I don’t even want to step inside a station.
Each type has some things to offer me but I would have to go for a
house. There’s usually more space, and the water supply is much more
reliable.
14. What part of your home do you like the most?
My room. It’s big to begin with. There’s a bookshelf attached to the wall
which is my favourite spot for reading. And you know what’s best? The
bathroom. I have my own bathroom in my own room.
Public transportation?
1. Do you usually use public transport? How often?
2. What type of public transport do u use?
3. How often do u take taxis?
4. How good is public transport in your home town?

5. Is it important for children to learn foreign language?
I think the most difficult is speaking English. I can speak English but normally it not
correctly because i meet hard about word, grammar, structure and idioms...
English is same Vietnamese, it has much different words to talk about one topic.
Speaking is the most difficult. we can learn the grammar. and we can recognize the
pronunciation but when we try to speak we get nervous. Because we don´t sure about our
Speaking. We don´t sure about we can learn the correct pronunciation. I´ve could see that is
the principal problem to learn English..
I think it’s not easy for me to learn E’. Speaking is the most difficult. we can learn the grammar.
and we can recognize the pronunciation but when we try to speak we get nervous. Beacuse

pronunciation

Here are five big reasons that learning English can improve your life.
400 million people around the world speak English as their first language. Not only that, but
English is listed as one of the official languages in more than a quarter of the countries in the
world. That’s a lot of new people you can communicate with just by improving one language!
What’s more, English is the rest of the world’s “second language”. While Chinese Mandarin
and Spanish are the mother tongues of more people overall, most people in the world choose
to learn some English after their native language. In fact, one in five people on the planet
speak or understand at least a little bit of English.
This makes English one of the most useful languages you can learn. After all, you can’t learn
all 6,500 languages in the world, but at least you will be able to communicate with people
from all different countries using English.
Companies are becoming more international, and English is listed as an essential skill for
more and more jobs. There are some organisations that now conduct all their business in
English, no matter where in the world they are based. If you want the best paid opportunities,
learning English is a great idea.
As I said before, English is the world’s second language. This means that learning English
makes it much easier to travel anywhere you want. For example, aeroplane announcements,
train timetables, emergency information and street signs are often translated into English,
particularly in countries that use a different type of alphabet. Plus, even if you don’t find
other travellers or local people that speak your mother tongue, you are practically guaranteed
to find someone who understands some English.
Most of the content on the internet is written in English. Many of the world’s biggest news
outlets, including TV, newspapers, magazines and radio, are produced in English. Some of
your favourite films, TV shows and pop music are probably English-language. Go to any
international film festival in the world and you will see that all films are either in English or
have English subtitles.
English is the international language of media and arts and so, if you want to access as much
as possible for yourself, without relying on translations, it’s the most powerful language you
can learn today!
For me, it’s necessary for us to studying a Foreing languages From a young age.
It . it help children t
Learning a new language will help you get more money. You will also feel more connected to the
different cultures. Learning a new language is fun! At least for me...But everybody is different.
The best language to start at is Spanish that's where all the basic Latin roots are from. Learning a
new language is fun as long as you are in
Living in the hostel
For me living in the hostel As a hosteller is not under the care of his
family, he develops a sense of independence and self-reliance.
· Living in the hostel, that is usually located inside the campus saves
your travelling time and expenses.
· One gets a chance to bond with classmates who turn out to be one
of the best friends for life ahead.
There are advantages such as the people staying in hostels get to meet and bond
with new people across the country. It almost becomes their family. There are
also disadvantages like one has to stay away from their families to pursue their
studies.
Disadvantages:
Some factors i think we'll concern before diciding where to live such as: the student
budget, how far is it from your room to the university
Know your budget for rent. If money is a concern, choose wisely. ...
In the event, I recall speaking and presenting. About half to two thirds of the way
through, the audience went quiet. Oh dear, I thought to myself, ‘ I have bored them.’ So I
rushed through the final part and quickly asked if there were any questions. There were
none, all I got was a fantastic round of applause.
What had happened is that what I interpreted as ‘boredom’ was in fact silent
amazement. They were really impressed with my work and my presentation but I had
misinterpreted this. I say this not to sing my own praises about my work but that the
experience helped me in future public speaking and presentations; it gave me that all
important belief in my ability
First of all I was tremendously nervous to speak out something before audience.
Honestly I was severing and forget everything. I want to speak but sounds are failed to
come out. I failed to make a better eye contact with audience . My voice was low in front
of them. Literally I was wondering and awaiting when I shall leave the stage. After
practicing infinity times I make myself stable enough.
First of all, An English Club is a place for language learners to use English in a
casual setting. Practising your skills in the classroom is important, but it is not
like real life. In the classroom, you often focus on one skill and one item (for
example: grammar - future tense). After learning the rules your teacher gives
you time to practise using the item. In an English Club, you get a chance to
practice many different skills in a setting that is more like real life. Though your
English teacher understands your English, your English Club friends will require
you to speak more clearly and listen more carefully. Starting an English Club is
also a great way to make new friendships. It is important to have good friends
because your confidence will increase if you speak more.
However, there are some reasons why I don’t choose the other options.
Participating in an Speaking English course is not my choice because After
learning the rules your teacher gives you time to practice using the item, so if
you have no time to speaking, you are easy to forgot what you were taught.
Besides, I don’t choose Talking to foreigners in public places since you know,
they are normally busy sightseeing and some of them are not willing to
speaking to us. Even when they are, we can only spend a few minutes chatting
on very limited topics like the weather, job and so on.
In short, I believe that taking part in an English club Is the best way for make
my English Skill better.
You have to weeks off before the final exam. What will you do? Revise for

should the legal drinking age be reduced?
In my opinion, I think that the legal drinking age. In vietnam, A person under 18
years old is banned drinking.
From my point of view, I think that A child is ready to make their own decisions at 18 years
old. Developmentally, a parent should let their child make age-appropriate decisions as they
demonstrate capacity, judgment, and maturity
People can go to visit many different places in hanoi such as: Hoan kiem lake, ha noi old
quarter, Dong xuan market, west lake, tempel of literature and so on. Hoan Kiem lake
represented the spiritual heart of the city, reminds Vietnamese people of a legendary story about
the name Hoan Kiem, and reminds the traditional education and the dedication of General Tran
Hung Dao.
Hanoi has not only many places to visit but also many delicious foods
Facebook was built to bring people closer together and build relationships.
One of the ways we do this is by connecting people to meaningful posts
from their friends and family in News Feed. Over the next few months, we’ll
be making updates to ranking so people have more opportunities to interact
with the people they care about. Mark outlined this in a post today.

Topic: Personal computers make our life more convenient and relaxed.
Do you think the people will continue using personal computers in the future?
What negative impacts do you think PCs may have on children?
How should one use computers wisely?
our life become more convenient and relaxing when we have personal
computers.
Thanks to personal computers, ourlife has become much easier and more
relaxed.
Some people believe that computers help our life more easier, more useful and more convenient lives
for them
Some people believe that computers provide easier and more convenient lives for them. In their
opinion, computers help them surf Internet and share information. They may communicate directly by
E. mail. But others hold that computers have made life more complex and stressful and they point out
that computers bring many bad effects to human beings, such as information security problem
because of hacking attack and environmental pollution because of irradiation. As far as I concerned, I
prefer the first opinion rather than the second view.
My opinion comes from following three aspects. First of all, computer made life more efficient than
before. For example, people might access websites, gain a lot of valuable information and contact
each other around the world. Secondly, computer made life more relax and easier. Computers provide
variety kinds of games and people could enjoy and relax from them everyday. Finally, compute help
people solve many complicated problem by software, such as investment and finance. Therefore,
people`s life becomes more simple and convenient.
However, just as what other people say that computers give us some negative effects in the
meantime. For example, Irradiation does harm for our bodies and eyes, so we cannot make people
seat too long in front of computers. Hacking is a really trouble, and we are supposed to enhance
computer control and technology.
In general, computers give people an easier and convenient life. Although there exists some bad
effects of computers as mentioned above. We are supposed to do our best to solve the problems and
pay more attention on their good effects. I believe that our society will benefit more from them in the
future.
1. PC can be used for multiple recreational activities. It can be used for playing games,
watching movies, listening to songs, recording voice, drawing via online tools and much
more. It can be used as an all-in-one machine and reduce the cost of buying specific
electronic devices like DVD player, music system, etc. I use the PC for doing all the things
mentioned above.
2. My PC can drastically increase the speed of my work for any projects, assignments and
homework. I can use the PC for calculations using excel, for creating charts using Visio,
preparing presentations using PowerPoint, etc. I also use the PC for preparing a list of
household tasks to be completed. Within few minutes, I can make a list of daily chores at a
much faster speed. I use Microsoft word, Microsoft excel to make a number of documents
required for daily activities. There is lot of information available on the internet and a wide
range of formats, guides and software in the PC to help individuals like me to work faster. As
lot of my time is saved by using a PC, I can focus on making pocket money in this time.
3. My PC can help me stay connected with my dear ones. A PC can reduce the cost for
communication considerably. I stay connected to my friends, family and classmates through
e-mails, phone calls via PC, Facebook, and Skype etc. I need to have internet for calling via
PC but I need internet for many things else and therefore, I use my PC for communication. A
PC helps me to make international video calling through skype and other software and thus I
can stay connected with my parents and relatives in India at low cost.
