--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hello teacher. I would like to introduce myself, my name is Le Van Hung, I am
a doctor at the surgery department of Nghe An General Hospital. I graduated
from Thai Binh University of Medicine in 2013. My job is as an associate dean.
I will do biopsies, examine samples, and read results to return to clinical
departments every day. Although the work is not heavy, it is quite tiring,
especially with frequent headaches and eye fatigue due to daily microscopy, and
the risk of exposure to various dangerous specimens. However, it is a job that I
love and take pride in. I hope to continue to develop and try.
Part 2. Choose one of these questions which are given in the task and
answer it in a 300-words essay.
1. “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost has a universal theme for all the
people in the world. Can you use your understanding about the theme to
prove that? Have you ever stood at a crossroads and hesitated to decide
what road to take in your real life? How?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost is a poem that resonates with people
across the globe due to its universal theme of choices and the uncertainty that


accompanies decision-making. Frost's exploration of this theme is relatable to
individuals from all walks of life, making it applicable to people worldwide.
One reason why the theme of the poem is universal is that it captures the

essence of human experience. Throughout life, individuals encounter numerous
crossroads, both literal and metaphorical, where they must make choices that
will shape their future. Frost's poem serves as a metaphor for these pivotal
moments, where the speaker reflects upon the road not taken and the impact it
may have had on their life.
The theme of choice and hesitation is something that nearly everyone can relate
to. Whether it's choosing a career path, pursuing a romantic relationship, or
making a major life decision, we have all stood at crossroads, uncertain about
which path to follow. In these moments, we often reflect on the road not taken
and wonder about the outcomes that could have been. The poem's universal
appeal lies in its ability to capture this internal struggle and the ongoing
contemplation of our choices.
Personally, I have also experienced standing at a crossroads in my life. There
have been instances where I had to make important decisions that would
significantly impact my future. In such moments, I felt the weight of uncertainty
and the fear of making the wrong choice. Reflecting on "The Road Not Taken,"
I found solace in knowing that hesitation and doubt are natural, and that the path
we choose, even if different from what others might have taken, can lead to
unique experiences and growth.
"The Road Not Taken" serves as a reminder that we are not alone in our choices
and the dilemmas they present. It speaks to the human condition and the shared
experiences we encounter on our individual journeys. By tapping into the
universal theme of choice and hesitation, Robert Frost's poem continues to
resonate with people worldwide, offering insights and guidance as we navigate
the complexities of life.
