Your English friend is going to visit your country next month. Write a letter to him to tell him the
places he should visit and the kind of clothes he should bring to your country. You should also
invite him to stay at your house. (150 words)
Dear Evelyn,
I hope you are doing well. I’m so pleased to hear that you’re going to visit my country next month.
Anyway, have you planned on travelling anywhere in Viet Nam? I highly recommend you explore
Ha Long Bay which is recognized by UNESCO as a Natural World Heritage Site. I suggest
discovering caves and participating in some outdoor activies such as go swimming, go rock
climbing, go kayaking ect... The beaches are also beautiful. You can lie on the white sand and get a
tan. Besides, you should taste delicious Ha Long specialties food at Night Market.
By the time, you arrive in Viet Nam the weather will be really hot beause it is summer. Therefore,
you had better bring some T-shirts, shorts, glasses, flip flops, a sun hat and of course swimsuits. You
also need sunscreen because UV rays are high in hot weather.
It would be great if you could arrange to stay with me for a few days. My house is not far from that
location, I will show you around.
Hope to see you soon.
Lucy

Read the following part of a letter from your English friend. Write about 150 words.
“In your next letter, please tell me about your favourite TV program. Why do you like watching
it? What is it about?”

Dear May,
I hope you are doing well. Thank you for your last letter. I have recently started watching a show
called "Anh Trai Vuot Ngan Chong Gai" I’d love to tell you about it.
It is a reality TV show (game show) featuring male artists over 30 years old. They cooperate to tell
stories and create explosive performances in the form of a music group. Not only do they have many
different talents, intelligence and leadership abilities, but tbey also have an enthusiastic youthful
spirit to be able to overcome all difficulties. After finishing 5 concerts and 2 final rounds, the
organizers will select the talented winners.
"Anh Trai Vuot Ngan Chong Gai" makes me feel relaxed after a long, tiring day at work. I have
laughed a lot, all my stress and anxiety have seemed to disappear. In addition, thanks to watching
this program, I got more about the hidden talents of my favorite artists. That is why I love watching
it. If you are looking for an entertaining show, I highly recomend it.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes,

Dear Pat,
How are you these days? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Hope everything goes well
with you. I just received your email yesterday that you will be taking a vacation.
Honestly, I'm glad when I got the news. I would love to invite you to the city where I live, Hanoi. At
this time, the weather here is very pleasant with the cool air of autumn. People in Hanoi are also
very friendly and hospitable. Besides, I think you should try the food here. People say the food in
Hanoi is the best in Vietnam. By the way, my house has an empty room. I would be very happy if
you could come and stay with me during your vacation. We will have more time to hang out and
talk to each other. I also want to practice more English knowledge with you together. I look forward

You have recently started work in a new company. Write a letter to an English – speaking friend.
In your letter: Explain why you changed jobs, Describe your new job, Tell him/ her your other
news.
Dear John,
How have you been these days? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Hope everything goes
well with you. I am writing this letter to let you know about my new job. Last month I decided to
quit my job at my old company because it didn't fit my passion. To be honest, I don't like the job of
an engineer even though my major was in engineering. After a careful consideration, I chose my
favorite job as teaching English. I am currently teaching a VSTEP class for about 20 students at my
new company. The job is good because I have a chance to meet new people. However, Sometimes I
also feel quite tired because I have to work continuously from Monday to Saturday. By the way, I
want to let you know that I am getting married at the end of this year. Hope you can come to my
wedding. I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Hugs,

3. VIẾT THƯ CHO KHÁCH HÀNG

You received an email from a regular customer who is about to buy some furniture from your
store. She wants to know some details about a single bed and a wardrobe in your store. Besides,
she wants to know whether your store has discounts for students or not.
Dear Ms. Anna,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am the owner of QA furniture store on Le Thanh Nghi street. I am
writing this letter to let you know about the items you are asking about, including a single bed and a
wardrobe. Currently my store has green and yellow models. Other color models went out of stock
last month and we are currently in the process of producing new models. The price of each product
is $100 and customers will have the opportunity to get 10% off if they buy 3 or more products. In
the previous email, you asked if there was a discount for students. To be honest, our store currently
does not have a discount policy for these people. However, because you are our loyal customer, you
will get a 5% discount for your new order. I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
4. VIẾT THƯ CHO SẾP
Write a letter to your manager asking for a training course, which you would like to attend. In
your letter, explain: What the course is, Why it is required for your job , How you will manage
work while the course.
Dear Mr. Jason,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am an employee in the sales department. I am writing this letter to
ask you for a training course that I really want to join and I hope that you can help me. Honestly, I
want to sign up for a Chinese course. Recently, many of our customers have come from China,
especially after the covid epidemic. Unfortunately, no one in the sales department knows Chinese to
communicate with them. Therefore, every time we have a Chinese client, we have to hire an
interpreter from a translation company, which is a huge waste of money. In addition, if we have a
staff who is good at Chinese, we can expand our market in China in the near future. I will study on
Saturday and Sunday, which does not affect our work. However, the tuition fee is quite high while I
don't have enough money. Is it possible that you can pay the fee for me? I would be very grateful.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
5. VIẾT THƯ CHO BẠN HỦY HẸN

Write a letter to your friend. In your letter:
 Cancel the meeting with your friend and apologize
 Explain why you cannot be able to meet your friend

Dear Lan,
Are you fine these days? We have not seen each other for a long time. Hope everything goes well
with you. I am writing this letter to express my sincere apologies to you. I have to cancel my
appointment with you next week and I feel very sorry about that. I hope you understand my
situation. Next week my company organizes an emergency business trip abroad for all employees
and I will not be able to be in Vietnam. I also just heard this news few hours ago and I am very sad
that I do not have the chance to meet you as we planned. Can we change the time we meet? I will
complete my business trip and return to Vietnam next weekend. Can we meet in the first week of
next month? The location is still at my house. I am always free on weekday evenings. Let me know
what you think. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

6. ĐỀ HELEN (Hay thi)
Helen sent a letter asking for information about your friend - Hoa. Hoa had sent a letter to Helen
asking for accommodation because Hoa is going to attend an English course in the UK soon.
Helen sent a letter to you asking about Hoa's hobbies, what Hoa’s personalities are, working or
studying.
Dear Helen,
Are you fine these days? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Hope everything goes well
with you. I am writing this letter to let you know about Hoa, who wants to ask to stay at your house
because she is about to attend an English course in the UK.
Honestly, Hoa is my best friend, and I know her pretty well. Her hobbies are reading books and
listening to music. She is passionate about detective novels and pop music. Sometimes I also see her
running in the park. She says the activity helps her relax and focus on work. Besides, I want to talk
about Hoa's personality. She is a sociable person and very friendly. She often participates in local
community activities to help the poor around her area. She is currently a 3rd year student in Vietnam
and intends to study in the UK for 2 years. I hope the information I share is useful to you.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

7. Đề PIANO (Hay thi)
Through a friend in the group, you know that Lam - Your friend is passionate about playing the
piano but doesn't have time because of homework and exam preparation.
Write a letter to Lam. In your letter: • Tell her how you felt, • advise her to purchase her hobby
• give her advice.
Dear Lam,
Are you fine these days? We have not seen each other for a long time. Hope everything goes well
with you. I am writing this letter to talk about your passion.
I just met Hoa yesterday, one of our close friends. She said that you love to play the piano but don’t
have time because of homework and exam preparation. Honestly, I felt sad when I heard that news. I
think you should follow your passion because I know you love playing the piano very much. In my
opinion, you should arrange to spend 2 hours a day playing the piano after school. It will relieve you
of stress after a hard day of studying for exams. Besides, you can join a piano club so the club’s
members can help you with more problems in your life and study. I hope my advice is helpful to
you. I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Love,
