English is very necessary in social communication in many countries. There are some advantages of learning English. Firstly, if you are good at E, you can read any document that is necessary for your study. Secondly, you can find a good job with a high salary with good E skill. Furthermore, nowadays, E is a global language. Learning E will help you to communicate with foreign people from around the world more easily. It also helps you open your mind.

Transport (Giao thông vận tải) I’m going to tell you about transport problems in Vietnam. Firtsly, Transport in VN is very terible. Especially, in big cities like Hanoi, there are too many motorbikes on the road and people don’t follow the traffic laws. They cross the road while the lights are red. They may be the reasons why there are too many accidents in Vietnam. Another problem of transport in Vietnam is road systems. They are too old and narrow. They should be repaired. More new roads should be built. In my opinion, now the most necessary solutions to the transport problems in Vietnam are educating people, especially young people about traffic laws and building more modern road systems. reasons 'ri:zn: lý do opinion ə'piniən road [roud solutions giai phap sə'lu:∫n repaired ri'peə 4. Hobbies (sở thích riêng) and entertainment (giải trí) : I have a lot of hobbies. For example :play football, travelling or listen to music…. But today, I’m going to tell you about My favourite sport. My most favourite sport is football. It is a famous sport in the world. Football is such a popular game that is played even in the most remote area of my country. Even old people and children enjoy watching this game. When The Championship of World, the Premier League happen, people can "eating football, sleeping football and playing football" and football is called the "King sport". Football players should be strong enough to kick the ball. They must also be skillful in controlling the ball. This makes this game difficult indeed, yet it also makes it interesting. When I studied at Ha noi University of Agriculture, I participated in a team of the faculty of Agronomy. My team won and the champion cup belonged to my team.

I just like watching them on TV. The sport that I want to tell you today is football. I really like watching football matches on TV. My favourite football team is Liverpool club. They play very well and the players are very handsome, especially Sevent Gerrad. I usually watch football matches with my father and my brothers at night. My father and I support Liverpool but my brother likes MU so we allways argue about football teams and Championleage. In my opinion, there are a lot of good things about playing football. It not only helps you stronger, but also helps you learn to unite. When I studied at Ha noi University of Agriculture, I participated in a team of the faculty of Agronomy.

Health and welfare (sức khỏe và hạnh phúc): I’m going to tell you about health care problem in Vietnam. As you know, Vietnam is a developping country so health care systems are still poor and old. Almost state owned hospitals were built a long time ago in Vietnam. Therefore, they are all old and small. They do not meet people’s demand The majority of big hospitals are in big cities such as Hanoi, HCM... Further more, the the government invest a little money in local hospitals and clinics. That’s why many people have to take a long journey hành trình to get to a big hospital when they are badly trầm trọng ill. Nowadays, the problems are improving. The government is investing more in health care. I hope that the health care system will be better in the near future in Viet Nam. welfare 'welfeə demand di'mɑ:nd(đòi hỏi). health helθ Therefore bởi vậy state- steit owned oun (tình trạng) majority mə'dʒɔriti invest đầu tư clinics 'klinikbệnh viện tư improving im'pru:vcải thiện 7 Education: Well, for me, education is a complicated problem to say. I'm going to tell you something about hostels for students. You know, allmost students who are studying in Hanoi come from poor provinces. After they pass a difficult exam, new students and their families must prepare alot of things for their study. Nowaday, the most important problem of new students is dormitory. Hanoi is too small for too much students so boarding house and dormitory for student is not enough. Students must bay alot of money for a small room, it is not fair because they dont have much money. With these reasons, pressing problem now is build more hostel for students, especially cheap price hostel. In my case, I lived in hostel through 4 years and I really love the life in hostel, it is safe peaceful and people here are very friendly. In my opinion, most of university should be built more hostel for students. boarding house (nhà trọ) not fair (thừa thãi) complicated (phức tạp) pressing (cấp bách) hostels (nhà rẻ tiền cho sinh viên) safe (an toàn) peaceful (hòa bình) 8. Houses I don’t known every people think what about your house, for me, I love my house so much. Today I'm going to tell you something about my house. It is an old house that was build about 10 years ago. My parents built it by their save money. When you visit my house, the fist thing you will see is a medium living room, it is decorated with the light color and some beautiful pictures on the wall. There are 3 bed rooms in my house.There are one livingroom, and kitchen and the toilet. I really love sister bed room because She decorate it by my self with pink walls, sister cute bed, a wardrobe and a lovely dressing table. The kitchen in my house is not big and modern but my mother is very like it because where is my mother make a lot of delicious and special dishes for my family. Every night, my family watch TV together in living room. We talk about everything. And I think it is the best time we have together. my self (cùng một màu) wardrobe (tủ quần áo) cute (duyên dáng) 9. Holiday Firstly, I want to tell you that I really like holidays. I’m going to talk about Tet holiday. It is the first holiday in the year. I really like it because I don’t have to do any thing in my office on Tet holiday. Therefore, I have more time for my family. On Tet holiday, people in Vietnam usually visit their grand parents, relatives or friends. They greet each other and give the best wishes. Adults usually give lucky money to children. Also, all people are happy to wear new clothes. Especially, people make a lot of delicious and special dishes đĩa thức ăn. For example, square cake , spring rolls, etc… As for me, I usually spare time with my family on the first day of the new year. I often go out with my friends the rest days. Lunar mặt trăng square cake (bánh chưng), spring rolls (nem) greet chào special dishes đĩa thức ăn 10. Social problems. Nowaday, people not only in Vietnam but also from around the world busier than in the past, and they don’t have enough time for there family. So, I’m going to tell you something about family problem in Vietnam. You know, Vietnam is a developing country, people are trying to have a better life. That is the reason why they spend more time for their work and don’t have enough time for their family. Parents don’t spend more time to play and talk with there children. When members in a family don’t spend time together It make children feel lonely and they may leave their home to make friend with strange people, it’s really dangerous for children. In my opinion, people should balance time between work and family. balance (cán cân) 11. The economic i:kə'nɔmik development As you know, Viet nam has been unified since 1975. Viet nam made a big mis take about economic development, as we didn’t apply the opendoor policy after re – unifying the country. As a result, viet nam had to need aids from other counties. The economic was not development; The People,s life. Therefore Vietnam had to open the door for development of economy in 1986 an “ Doi moi” means “ reform”. At the moment, the Vietnamese Party anh Government concentrate on the economic developmemt ecomomic with the program “modernization and industrialization” all over the country. More and more foreign investors invest in Vietnam. The economy has been improving day by day. So much work has been done as well as the people’s life are getting better and better . The reputation of Vietnam has been raised especially after joining the wto. Now a day, Viet nam is striving for an industrialized country by 2020. We believe that Vietnam will become a developed country in the near future unified 'ju:nifai 12. Environment As you know, Vietnam is a developing country so the development of industry is very important. As a result, the environment is polluted. There are many kinds of pollution like air pollution, water, soil, etc… In my opinion, air polluion is the most serious. Smoke from factories store many kinds of toxics such as CO2 , CO, NH3, etc… It effects animals, plants and people’s life. Plants and animals near industrial zones can not grow normally. Especially, air pollution cause a lot of serious diseases such as lung cancer, skin cancer and other diseases. From my point of view, developing economy is very important but we must balance between benefit and damage. We should protect our environment by planting more and more trees, cleaning the environment. Another sollution is educating people about benefits of the clean/ fresh environment. industry công nghiệp 13. Food: I’m going to tell you about my favourite food. As you know, Vietnam is a tropical country. There are a lot of tropical foods. My favourite food is beef noodle. It is made of rice, beef, and many kinds of herbs. I usually eat beef noodle in the morning. My favourite restaurant is Cuong Noodle. It is a small restaurant located on Tran Hung Dao street. Whenever I eat beef noodle, it always makes me have a special taste. Hanoi is famous for beef noodle. What’s more, it is also well- known for a lot of delicious foods. For example Omai, grilled rice…. At home, my mother makes beef noodle very well. She often makes it when my family get together. We enjoy the happy time when we have beef noodle at home. many kinds of herbs cỏ thảo môc 14. Fashion: You can see me, I am not a famous man, I’m a traditional man so my knowledge about fashion is not very much. In my opinion, fashion is something make people more beautiful and more charming. Fashion usually is made by young people. Nowaday, teenage usually wear exceptional clothers and those clothers have many colour. Their hair are also dyed with many colours, for example red, brown, or even green. Fashion is not very common in middle-age person and old people never follow fation. In my way of thinking, Fashion is very good for every people but we must follow it by a right way. teenage (thanh thiếu niên) exceptional (khác người) charming (duyên dáng) dyed (nhuộn màu)
