PART 2: LỰA CHỌN THÔNG TIN:

Đề 1: A group of international students visit your town/ city and want to get involved in some local
cultural activities. The Youth Secretary recommends the following festivals for them to take part
in: Mid-Autumn Festival, Fishing Village Festival, and Handicraft Festival. In your opinion, which
is the best choice?
In my opinion, I will recommend the Mid-Autumn Festival that is the best choice for them to take part in.
Because it is the unique characteristic just Asia people have, it’s so funny for them to explore and
experience. Besides, Joining to prepare traditional works, such as: watch moon, Lantern procession,
playing in the cool weather, try to eat mooncake then enjoy a warm tea. They also can harmonize with
nature, come back to the childlish moment and listen to old stories related to the moon.
In addition, It is the best choice because it's safer than Fishing festival, avoids high waves, works in a
hard environment, and is crowded with noisy people. Or a Handicraft festival that is really tough for them
because they can easily break the product quite a lot.
ĐỀ 2: Situation: You are thinking about how to spend your evening. There are three options:
hanging out with friends, reading books, and surfing the Internet. Explain your choice.
From my point of view, I will spend evening time reading books.
Because reading books offers a unique and enriching experience that allows me to immerse myself into
different worlds, explore new ideas, and gain knowledge. It provides a sense of relaxation and quiet
reflection, creating a tranquil environment that allows me to unwind and disconnect from the hustle and
bustle of daily life. It's also a form of entertainment that not only relaxes me but also contributes to my
intellectual development.
In addition, surfing the Internet and hanging out with my friends will waste my evening time. I think we
should spend the evening relaxing after a hard working day. You can do it in a day with full energy.
ĐỀ 3: Your group is discussing climate change. Who do you think should have the main
responsibility for tackling climate change: the local government, environmental organizations or
individuals?
In my point of view, individuals should have the main responsibility for tackling climate change.
Because individuals make the world and individuals also can protect our earth. Each person's actions,
choices, and consumption patterns contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and environmental
degradation. Individuals can make sustainable choices in their daily lives, such as reducing energy
consumption, adopting eco-friendly transportation options, recycling, and supporting businesses that
prioritize sustainability.
Moreover, individuals can engage in climate activism, participate in local initiatives, and demand climate
action from their elected representatives. Collectively, individual actions can lead to a significant impact
and promote a culture of sustainability in society.
ĐỀ 4: A group of people are discussing criteria in choosing a job. These criteria are cited: salary,
promotion opportunities, relationship with colleagues, stability. Which criterion do you think is the
most important?
If I were to choose one criterion as the most important among salary, promotion opportunities,
relationship with colleagues, and stability, I would select promotion opportunities.
Because Promotion opportunities provide a pathway for professional growth and advancement in a
chosen career. They allow individuals to take on new challenges, expand additional skills, and their
knowledge and gain experience. Promotions often come with salary increases and improved benefits,
leading to enhanced earning potential. Besides, working in an environment with potential for growth will
help you develop your full potential and contribute your best without being constrained by any
framework.
ĐỀ 5: Imagine that a group of people are lost in a rainforest and need to signal for help. These
signals are suggested: fire signals, smoke signals, and body signals. Which of these do you think is
the best choice?
In a scenario where a group of people is lost in a rainforest and needs to signal for help, the best choice
would be fire signals. Fire signals have several advantages over smoke signals and body signals in this
specific situation. Firstly, fire signals are highly visible and can be seen from a distance, even in dense
rainforest conditions.Fire signals are relatively easy to create. On the other hand, smoke signals can
disperse quickly, making it less visible and reducing their chances of being noticed by potential rescuers.
Body signals are limited in range and visibility. In a rainforest, where visibility is often obstructed by
dense vegetation, relying solely on body signals might not be the most efficient choice. In conclusion, fire
signals are the best choice for signaling for help in a rainforest scenario.
In my opinion, smoke signals are my best choice because smoke signals can also be effective in signaling
for help, especially during the day. They can be created by smoldering damp or green vegetation to
produce smoke. Additionally, smoke signals are safer than fire one there is a risk of accidental wildfires,
so caution must be exercised to prevent unintended consequences. And smoke signals may be more
effective in dense rainforest environments where visibility is limited than body one
ĐỀ 6: Situation: summer vacation is coming. you wish to take up a kind of sports to keep fit/ keep
healthy. there are three kind of sports suggested: swimming, acrobics, yoga. Which sport do you think is
suitable for you? please state the specific.
Well, you know, summer vacation is coming. I wish to take up a kind of sport to keep fit, and there are
three given options including: swimming, aerobics and yoga. I personally think that swimming would be
the best choice because of the following reasons. First and foremost, swimming can help me to have
strong health.
Moreover, it can equip me with living skills. For example, I am able to avoid being drowned. Finally, it's
a great way for me to unwind after a hard working time. With regard to the other 2 options, I know that
many people would choose yoga and aerobics because of some benefits it may have but as for me, I
don’t choose yoga because I find it so boring and I think aerobics is not suitable for me. In sum, it is
undeniable to say that swimming would be the final choice in this situation.
Đề 7: Your family members are going to have a three-week vacation together. They were
wondering about 3 destinations: Phuket beach, Dalat, and Sydney. Which place do you think is the
best? Why?
You know, my family members are going to have a three-week vacation together. There are 3 options:
Phuket beach, Dalat city and Sydney. In my opinion, Dalat city is my best choice. Because
Dalat is generally considered a safe and family-friendly destination. It offers a peaceful atmosphere away
from the hustle and bustle of larger cities, making it an ideal place to spend quality time with family. The
city has a variety of accommodation options, ranging from budget-friendly hotels to upscale resorts,
catering to different preferences and budgets. I don’t think Sydney is a good choice because it’s too far
and I have to pay a lot of money to travel by plane. And I think Phuket beach is not suitable for me
. Therefore, I would prefer to choose Dalat city.
ĐỀ 8: Your mother-in-law is going to be 80 next Sunday. …. and a family party. what do you think
is the best for your mom and state the specific reasons
For my mother-in-law's 80th birthday surprise, I think a family party would be the best choice.
A family party allows for a heartfelt celebration of your mother-in-law's milestone birthday. It provides
an opportunity for all family members to come together and express their love, admiration, and
appreciation for her. Gathering the family members can create a warm and joyful atmosphere, making the
occasion truly special.
A family party provides a safe and comfortable environment where your mother-in-law can relax and
enjoy the company of her closest loved ones. Besides, a family party is more suitable for financial
problems than a holiday and more meaningful than a bunch of flowers.
Đề 9: Your son is going to get into university next year. Which university would you want your
child to study at: a state-owned university, a private one, or a vocational college? Why?
In my opinion, studying at a vocational college is my choice in the modern age. Because vocational
colleges focus on providing hands-on training and practical skills relevant to specific industries or trades.
If your child is interested in a specific vocational career path, such as culinary arts, automotive
technology, or healthcare, a vocational college can offer targeted training and preparation.
Vocational colleges often have strong connections with industry partners and provide students with
opportunities for internships or apprenticeships. This can help students get a job immediately after
graduating Besides, vocational programs typically have shorter durations compared to traditional
university degrees and cheaper than a private university
ĐỀ 10: On your Son's 20th birthday, he desired to have a present from you. This present may be a
computer, a laptop, and a cellphone. which gift do you think is the best for your son and why?
-> For my son's 20th birthday, I believe the best gift would be a cellphone. I think a cellphone is more
convenient than a computer or laptop even though their functions are almost the same. A cellphone offers
convenience and portability, allowing my son to easily carry it with him wherever he goes. It provides
instant access to calls, messages, and social media platforms, ensuring that he can stay connected with his
loved ones and maintain important relationships. In conclusion, a cellphone would be the best gift for my
son's 20th birthday as it offers convenience, connectivity, and a wide range of functionalities that can
support his personal, social, and professional endeavors.
ĐỀ 11: Your friend is a fresh student. She is looking for a part-time job but she does not know what
job is suitable for her. There are three jobs suggested: a tutor, a waitress, and a shop assistant.
Which job do you think is the best choice?
In my opinion, I believe that being a tutor would be the best choice for my friend who is a fresh student
looking for a part-time job. First, I think being a tutor would allow her to utilize her academic knowledge
and skills. Secondly, being a tutor offers flexibility in terms of scheduling. She can choose to work during
evenings or weekends, allowing her to balance her job with her studies. Working as a waitress or shop
assistant requires working long hours and it is difficult to arrange time to balance study and work. In
conclusion, being a tutor is the best choice for my friend as it allows her to utilize her academic
knowledge, offers flexible scheduling, and provides opportunities for personal growth and development.
ĐÊ 12: You are asked to give advice on books for children to teach at kindergartens. There are
three types suggested: Fairy tales, picture books, and folklore. What ……option to children?
When it comes to teaching children at kindergartens, I believe that picture books are the best option.
Picture books are highly visual and engaging, capturing the attention and imagination of young children.
The combination of colorful illustrations and simple text helps to develop their visual literacy and
language skills. Moreover, picture books often convey important life lessons and values in a relatable and
accessible manner.Fairy tales should be read to children at bedtime, while folklores should be taught in
elementary school programs. In conclusion, picture books are the best option for teaching children at
kindergartens due to their visual appeal, ability to convey important values, and their potential to foster a
love for reading and storytelling.
ĐỀ 13: In a beauty pageant, the candidate ……o introduce a cultural symbol. There are three
things suggested: aodai, lotuses, and national flag. …..why not choose the remaining things?
I believe that introducing the national flag would be the best choice for the candidate representing my
country in a beauty pageant. The national flag is a powerful and universally recognized symbol of our
country's identity and unity. It represents the values, history, and aspirations of our nation. By showcasing
the national flag, the candidate can proudly display her patriotism and promote a sense of national pride
among the audience. While aodai and lotuses are also significant cultural symbols, they may not have the
same level of recognition and impact on an international stage. These symbols may not resonate as
strongly with a global audience who may be less familiar with Vietnamese culture. In conclusion,
introducing the national flag would be the best choice for the candidate in a beauty pageant as it
represents our country's identity, unity, and diversity.
ĐỀ 14: When you get o to suppo: put your bag on the sent to people with not sit next to you, move
your bag so people can sit down, talk to the other people.
When I get on a train alone, I would choose to move my bag so people can sit down next to me. There are
several reasons why I believe this is the best option. By moving my bag, I am ensuring that there is
enough seating available for everyone. It is not fair to occupy a seat with my bag when someone else may
be in need of a place to sit. Secondly, by making space for others to sit next to me, I create an
opportunity for conversation and potentially meeting new people. This can make the train journey more
enjoyable and even lead to interesting conversations or connections. On the other hand, putting my bag on
the seat to prevent people from sitting next to me is not a friendly approach. It can be seen as selfish and
it may also create an uncomfortable atmosphere.
ĐỀ 15: The governments ……. Which transportation (buses, trains, or subways) do you ….. in?
I believe that investing in subways would be the best choice for improving public transportation. There
are several reasons for this selection. Firstly, subways have the advantage of being independent of road
traffic. Unlike buses, which can be affected by congestion and delays on the roads, subways have
dedicated tracks and are not subject to traffic jams. This ensures a more reliable and efficient mode of
transportation, with fewer delays and smoother journeys for commuters.Furthermore, subways offer a
faster mode of transportation compared to buses and trains. With fewer stops and the ability to travel at
higher speeds, subways can significantly reduce travel times and improve overall efficiency. This is
particularly beneficial for commuters who need to travel long distances or have time-sensitive
commitments. In conclusion, investing in subways would be the best choice for improving public
transportation. It will be an ideal solution for urban areas in the future
ĐỀ 16: You of modern life. Reading, exercising, and working in their gardens, what ……..
I believe that exercising is the best way to reduce stress in modern life. I had a tiring and stressful time
due to work overload. I started going to the gym for 1 hour every day and after that I felt much more
relaxed and started to love myself more. Exercising has been proven to release endorphins, which are
natural mood boosters. Engaging in physical activity, such as jogging, swimming, or yoga, can help
reduce stress levels and promote a sense of well-being. The physical exertion during exercise also helps
to relieve tension and clear the mind, allowing individuals to temporarily escape from the pressures of
daily life.
On the other hand, while reading books and working in gardens can also provide relaxation and escape,
they may not offer the same physical and physiological benefits as exercising. In conclusion, exercising is
the best way to reduce stress in modern life.
ĐỀ 17: If you could be a bird: A pigeon, a peacock, and a swan? ….. to support your opinion.
If I could be a bird, I would choose to be a swan. There are several reasons for this choice. Firstly, swans
are known for their elegance and grace. They glide across the water with a sense of serenity, their long
necks and beautiful white feathers creating a majestic presence. Secondly, swans are often associated with
beauty and purity. Their pristine white feathers symbolize purity and innocence, adding to their allure.
Being a swan would allow me to appreciate and embody these qualities, bringing a sense of tranquility
and beauty to my surroundings. On the other hand, pigeons and peacocks, while unique in their own
ways, may not offer the same qualities and experiences as a swan.
ĐỀ 18: You are going to…. hold your party: at your house? At a restaurant? or at a karaoke?
When deciding where to hold my birthday party, I believe that hosting it at a restaurant would be the best
choice. There are several reasons for this selection. Firstly, hosting the party at a restaurant provides
convenience for both myself and my friends. There will be no restrictions on operations or the number of
guests participating, many restaurants now also have karaoke systems available. Organizing a party at
home requires extensive preparation, including offering a diverse menu, cleaning, cooking, and
decorating. By choosing a restaurant, I can eliminate the stress and effort of hosting, allowing me to fully
enjoy the celebration without worrying about the logistics. That's something I can't control when I'm
having a birthday party at home. In conclusion, hosting the birthday party at a restaurant offers
convenience, diverse culinary options, and a pleasant ambiance for my friends to enjoy.
ĐỀ 19: Some foreign friends ask you for advice of the best time to visit Vietnam. Which season do
you think is the best time to go Vietnam: spring, autumn or summer?
When it comes to the best time to visit Vietnam, I believe that autumn is the ideal season. There are
several reasons for this choice. Firstly, autumn in Vietnam, which falls between September and
November, offers pleasant weather conditions making it more comfortable for outdoor activities and
exploration. The temperatures are generally milder, allowing visitors to enjoy their time without feeling
overwhelmed by the heat. Secondly, autumn in Vietnam is characterized by clear skies and less rainfall.
This means that visitors have a higher chance of enjoying sunny and dry days, which are perfect for
exploring the country's natural landscapes, historical sites, and vibrant cities. On the other hand, while
spring and summer also have their merits, they may not be the best time to visit Vietnam due to certain
factors. Spring, which falls can be unpredictable, with occasional rain showers and higher humidity
levels. Summer can be extremely hot. So, autumn will be the best time to travel.
ĐỀ 20: You are 18 now and you have the right to decide on what kind of accommodation you want.
There are three options for you to choose from: living with your parents, living with your close
friends in a rented house, and living in the dormitory. Which do you think is the best?
As an 18-year-old with the right to decide on my accommodation, I believe that living with my close
friends in a rented house would be the best option. There are several reasons for this choice.
Firstly, living with close friends in a rented house offers a sense of independence and freedom. Secondly,
living with friends provides a supportive and social environment. It allows for shared experiences, mutual
support, and the opportunity to create lasting memories. Living together fosters a sense of camaraderie
and friendship, which can contribute to a positive and enjoyable living situation.On the other hand, living
with parents may limit the sense of independence and personal growth that comes with living away from
home. Dormitories often have regulations and restrictions that may limit personalization and socialization
opportunities. In conclusion, living with close friends in a rented house is the best choice for me
ĐỀ 21: You and your friends are going to go out tonight. Which places would you like to go to: the
cinema, shopping center, recreation center?
Among the options of the cinema, shopping center, and recreation center, I would most prefer to go to the
cinema. There are several reasons for this choice. Watching a movie together allows us to immerse
ourselves in a story, laugh together, and experience a range of emotions. It provides a chance to bond and
create memories together. Going to the cinema provides a form of entertainment that is both relaxing and
engaging. Furthermore, going to the cinema offers a diverse range of movie genres and options to choose
from. Whether it's a comedy, action, romance, or thriller, there is something for everyone's taste. On the
other hand, Shopping centers and recreation centers can be crowded, overwhelming and expensive. So,
the option of going to the cinema is the best choice for me and my friends.
ĐỀ 22: It’s your birthday next week. A friend wants to buy you a gift. Consider the following
options: a camera, a bag and a notebook. Which is the best gift for you?
If I had to choose a gift from my friends on my birthday, I would choose a camera. There are many
reasons for me to choose it. The camera is compact and convenient to carry everywhere and capture
beautiful moments of nature or beautiful memories with my friends and family. Taking photos helps me
be more creative and see things more artistically, improve my ability to take beautiful photos and develop
my future career. So the camera would be a great gift if I received it on my birthday.
