MỘT SỐ BÀI LUẬN TIẾNG ANH


Why is it necessary to learn E?
E is the most international of languages. It is spoken all over the world. In our country E is
taught in schools and widely used in business. If we know E, we can read various kinds of E
books to widen our knowledge, communicate with most foreigners easily, and above all, find a
good job in a business company. In brief, it is very necessary for us to learn E. If we know E
well, we may have more chance of improving our lives.

The reasons why the young people prefer to live in town
While many old people dream of peaceful countryside and pure air, most young ones prefer life
in towns, especially in big cities. The town can provide them with all comforts and conveniences
such as electricity, drinking-water, good means pf transportation, and various kinds of
entertainment. They can buy everything they need and get all services quickly and easily.
Moreover, they can expect to find jobs that are both interesting and well paid. There is good
reason to believe that young people prefer to live in towns and cities because they hope to enjoy
benefits of modern life.

In your opinion, which job is the most interesting? Why?
There are plenty of good jobs in our society. In my opinion, working as a tourist guide is the
most interesting. Being a tourist guide enables us to know more about our country, visit beautiful
places and meet all kinds of people. Above all, when dealing with foreign tourist, we have good
opportunities to practise our E and widen our knowledge. Besides, the salary of a tourist guide is

satisfactory. I will apply for a job at a tourist agency and become a tourist guide when I have
graduated from high school and obtained a B level certificate of E.

Why are good books good teachers and friends?
I am very fond of books. I enjoy reading books at weekend and whenever I have free time. I read
simple E books, which help to improve my E, I also read serious Vietnamese books on general
sciences to widen my knowledge. Through these good books, I can learn a great deal more about
human civilization, the wonders of nature, and amazing inventions and discoveries of great men
in the world. In addition, I sometime read hurnorous stories to relax my mind and even to
remove my troubles. I wonder if there are people who can ever deny that good books are really
good teacher and friends.

How do you spend an evening when it rains?
Many young people dislike a rainy evening because they cannot go out and have fun. To me it is
not so boring. I can find lost of things to spend an evening when it rains. First of all, there are
assignments that I have to finish and lessons that I need to review for the next day’s classes.
Then, I can amuse myself by playing my guitar for a while. If I am not in the mood for music, I
can still join my family in the living-room for a play on television or a video film. A rainy
evening is often not much fun if one spends it doing nothing but it does seem to pass so
pleasantly and quickly when one is happy with so many things one can do.

Televition is a very popular means of communication as it is enjoyed by millions of people all
over the world. It entertains us with dances, plays and songs. It helps to widen our knowledge

with its instructive talk shows, news programmes and documentary films. It is also used for
educational purposes, especially in remote areas where there are no schools and teachers.
However, televition also has disadvantages. Many children are so interested in watching TV that
they neglect their studies. Besides, not all TV programmes are good. Some of the films which are
shown on televition encourage violence and sexuality. They have bad influence on small children
and teenagers. Since televition has an extremely wide influence on the entire world, it is essential
to provide as many good TV programmes as possible.

I live in Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in VN . It has a population of about 5 million. In the
center of the city the streets are wide and crowded with people and vehicles. There are many big
stores, hotels, theatres and tall buildings. However, in the suburbs the roads are narrow and in
bad condition, and the houses are small and ugly. There are several interesting sights in HCM
City such as the zoo, the Ben Thanh Market, the Dam Sen Park, the Thong Nhat palace, and the
Vinh Nghiem pagoda. There have been great changes in this city for the last 10 years. Life has
become much better for most of its residents.

suddenly taken ill, and it was serious enough for me to go to a doctor, who recommended a
week’s rest at home. I was seventeen on the day I completely recovered from my illness, so my
parents held a big party for me. It was great fun, for there were many guests including several of
our old friends. I am now talking a preparation course for the B level certificate of E. I will take
the exam early next month.
Thank you very much for your photos.

A historical place in HCM city
There are several historcal places in HCM city, among them the Nha Rong what is considered

the most famous. It was the very place where Uncle Ho boarded a French merchant ship to go
abroad. He was trying to find a plan for national salvation. In the memorial building there, we
can see many pictures and souvenirs of our Uncle’s revolutionary life. There are also many
historic documents and illustrations about our people’s resistance against the French colonialists
and the American imperialists. Around the building is a large garden with many trees and
beautiful flowers, which have been brought from different regions of the country. The Nha Rong
Wharf is always crowded with people especially young people. They go there to study President
Ho’s revolutionary life and our people’s good traditions.

A national Hero
The are many heroes and heroes in our history, but President Ho is known as one of the most
famous. He was the founder of the VN Communist Party, which led the victorious Revolution of
1945. This event brought independence and freedom to our people after nearly 100 years of
harsh French domination. But the enemies invaded our country again. They wanted to have our
people live in slavery. Once more, under President Ho’s leadership, our people successively
defeated he french colonialists and the American imperialists, liberated South VN and reunified
the whole country in 1975. President Ho is respected and worshipped by the Vietnamese people.

as an outstanding writer. Thanks to him, we are now living in the most glorious era in our
national history.

My experience of learning E
I have studied E for 5 years. I can write and speak E fairly well now. From my own experience, i
think that if we want to write E correctly, we should master its grammatical rules and enough
time reading the E books which suit our level. We can find these graded books in bookshops .As
to improving our speaking and listening abilities in E, we should carry out intensive practice by
listening to E recordings and radio broadcasts, imitating the native speaker’s voice as frequently
as possible. It is also good for us to join an E-speaking club to have the opportunity of speaking
E with other people. Above all, the learning of any language requires great effort and patience. If
we try hard and work methodically, ai;m sure, we can make good progress in learning E.

VN, my beloved homeland
My beloved homeland is VN. It is country in South East Asia with a population of over 80
million and a land area of about 330,000 km2. Our country is very rich in natural resources. The
subsoil in many regions contains a great quantity of mineral ores and in the immenes forests
there are various kinds of valuable trees and wild animals. The Vietnamese coastline very long
and beautiful with a large fishing industry. Our nation was established about 4.000 years ago.
The Vietnamese people are very intelligent and hard working. Above all, we have a long and
heroic history. Our people have defeated foreign invaders many times. Nowadays, Viet Nam is
under a socialist regime. There have been great changes in our country in recent years. The
standard of living has greatly improved. I love my homeland and feel very proud of it.

The advantages and disadvantages of living in the city
There are many advantages as well as disadvantages of living in the city. In the city, the houses

are supplied with electricity and drinking-water. People go from place very quickly by
motorbike, by bus or taxi. Housewives can buy everything they need in shops and supermarkets
everywhere. Children study at the schools near their houses. For entertainment, city people can
go to theatres and amusement centres. Urban workers always earn more money than the
labourers do in the countryside. However, the pollution of air, water and noise in the city badly
affects people’s health. Traffic accidents and social evils, which are common in the city, also
threaten people’s safety and happiness. Young people find it more suitable to live in the city but
it is not so good for the old to live there.

The problem of overpopulation
Overpopulation is a serious problem not only for each family but also for the whole notion. In a
large family, the parents cannot earn enough money to provide for their children. The children
themselves are not well nourished or well educated. It’s hard for these physically and mentally
disadvantaged young people to become qualified citizens to serve their country. Besides, the
mothers who have given birth so many times are certainly unluckly in their lives. Our goverment
cannot deal with such a serious problem while the country is still underdeveloped. If the
population increases uncontrollably, the goverment will not be able to provide enough food,
housing, work or education for so many people at the same time. As a result, people’s lives will
become worse. To ensure happiness, each married couple should have only 2 children.

The traffic problems of HCM city
HCM city is the large city in VN. It has a population of 7 million with over 3 million vehicles of
all kinds. Moreover, the streets are narrow and in bad condition. Worse still, many people
disobey the traffic regulations. Consequently, there are many traffic accidents, which kill and

injure hundreds of people every month. Furthermore, there are always traffic jams in the
downtown areas during rush hours, which is a terrible waste of time and money for the city
people. To solve the above problem, the authorities should have the streets repaired and widened.
They should also develop a good system of public transport to reduce the number of motorcycle
moving along the streets. Above all, the city people should be educated to obey the traffic rules. I
hope that all effective measures, including severe penalties for traffic violations, will be carried
out to reduce the number of traffic accidents.
