happiness
02. My home village
And now I would like to talk about my topic. My topic is about my home
village
I was born and have grown up in a small village called Duyen Hy. My
village is situated in Dinh Hung commune-Yen Dinh district. It’s about 2
kilometers from Quan Lao Town to the north.
My village is surrounded by green rice paddies. In the middle of the village
there is a beautiful temple. This temple was built to honor a heroine named
“Nguyen My Nuong” who founded my village. My villagers call her the God
of the
Duyen Hy village. Many visitors go to this temple on the first and fifteenth
days of the lunar month to worship her. Next to the temple, there is a stadium
and a culture house where people often celebrate many meetings and
festivals. Late in the afternoon, many children plays soccer, badminton or fly
their kites.
Many years ago, my village was very poor. My villager had to work
hard in the field all day. Their lives were simple and they were in need of

many things. Many people had to live in houses made of straw and mud, and
a few families had a radio or a TV set. Now the facilities of my village is
3


becoming better and better day by day. There are more and more high
buildings. There are many rich people. Many people have motorbikes even
cars. The lifestyle of my village changed. the work of the farmers is less hard
because they are helped a lot by machines. That means more food is
produced and less labour and less working hours are spent. They also have
more free time for entertainment.
Most of the villagers are famers. They are very hard-working. After their
harvest, they have extra jobs such as brick builders, welder, carpenters etc…
In Duyen Hy village there are many profesional brick-builders. They can
build many high buildings. People in my village are also very friendly and
helpful. They are willing to offer mutual help in any case and always get on
with one another harmoniously.
My village is rather small indeed but I am very proud of it because I was
born and have grown up there and spent my happiest childhood among the
simple and hard-working villagers who always feel attached to their native
land. And I promise myself that I will try my best to study well to make my
village more beautiful and richer in the future.
03. Environment
Environment is the most important thing. It’s the air we breath, the water we
drink and is everything we need for our life.
But now, that most important thing is being polluted by many different ways.
This pollution affects the health of living things.
The air is damaged by exhaust fume from cars and power station, which
destroys forests and lakes.
When fossil fuels: oil, gases and coal are burned to provide energy for

lighting and cooking. They form polluting gases.
Not only on land but also in the sea, oil spill pollutes sea water and marine
life
Chemical waste from factories and artificial fertilizers from farmland polute
river water, kill wildlife and spread disease.
Everything is caused by human. We create such a lot of rubbish. But we can
change and solve it , Because pollution can be prevented by things we do
every day.
So I have some ideas of solution to it :
- Firstly,we can recycle paper to save trees
4


- Seconly, try to refuse to buy plastic,which is hard to dissolve.If we
can’t avoid buying carrier bag, we should reuse them for several times
- Finally,we should take old clothes to charity shop and some are sold.
To protect environment , we also have to save energy by
- Switching off light when rooms aren’t in use
- Not wasting water
- Using a bicycle or walking instead of a car for short trip
They keep clean atmosphere and healthy life.
Moreover, this amount can be reduced by replacing an ordinary 100 walt
light bulb with an energy to save money as well as the earth’s
resources.Currently, we’re still trying to invent the new things.
Protecting the environment is to save not only energy but also natural
resources.This means conserving wildlife.
- Firstly, we have to protect and plant more forest to make place for wild
animals
- Secondly, prohibit hunter who hunt animals too many, out of the law
allowance

- Finally, now, we know that environment is the most important thing
and how to protect it. So please use those ways scientificially.
Recognizing the importance of the environment, Yen Dinh district is
changing day by day. They have done many things such as growing trees,
asking students to clean the streets on special occasions, putting many waste
baskets in the corner of the 45 street or making some speeches to show the
people how to keep their surroundings unpolluted. Especially, the people
have been planting many beautiful trees on the two ways to welcome the
Congress of the communist party of Vietnam.
At Quan Lao town secondary school, we always have intention of keeping
the environment clean. Each class has a duty on take care of some trees,
plants and their surrounding. We clean and water them every morning. On
afternoon Wednesday, all of us are very excited to take part in the useful
activities which make the environment unpolluted. In addition, we clean the
yard, the ceilings and the windows. We are really pleasant to see the result.
Now,our environment gets cleaner and cleaner, the trees are greener and
fresher.
And I hope there aren’t any polluted places in the world in the future.
Thanks for your listening!

04. FREETIME ACTIVITIES
As a student, I am quite busy on weekdays. However, at weekends, I have
much free time, so I usually spend it on relaxing to prepare for a coming busy
week.
First of all, in my free time, I like playing some sports, such as soccer,
badminton or basketball, with my friends. Sport not only makes me stronger
but also connects me with my friends who have the same hobbies. We
sometimes go riding in order that we can combine sporting activity and

sightseeing.
If the weather is not fine enough for me to go out with my friends, I like
reading books. I have a big bookshelf with many kinds of books but I prefer
science books. Through these books, my knowledge is gradually widened.
Thirdly, I also love to listen to music from pop, dance,rock 'n roll to rap or
melody. I can listen to music at any place with a small but modern Ipod
which is my father's gift for my 12th birthday. Sometimes, I dance freely
when listening to my favorite songs. Music really paints my life.
Last but not least, I spend my free time on surfing on Internet. I can chat with
my friends from very far distance or I read online news. With Internet, I
update many things without having to go anywhere. I can also study English
through some interesting websites. In conclusion, I want to use all of my free
time to relax and connect with other people.
05. stay healthy
In my opinion, our healh is the only thing we really have in the world.
You can take away our money, our house or our clothes, we can survive. But
take away our health, we will die. That is the reason why we should do 3
following things to stay healthy.
Firstly, eating healthfully is important to maintain one’s health. I try to
avoid food high in fat like french fried or cookie. I also try to limit the
amount of animal protein I consume. I often eat fish or chicken and I rarely
eat meat. I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruit, which are full of fibre and
vitamines. It is important to know how to cook these food so the nutrients are
not lost in the cooking process.
6


Secondly, your muscles must continue to be strong to support your
body as it grows older. Exercise helps the bones build density and helps you
maintain your posture. A regular exercise program cardio-vascular training

and weight training is an important part of keeping your health.
Finally, friends are an important factor, which affects one’s health.
Studies have shown that people with a wide range of social contacts get fewer
colds and have fewer complaints than those who don’t. Laughing is also an
important part of health. I like laughing with my friends and I always fell
better when I am with them than when I am alone.
In conclusion, by eating properly and exercising regularly, I can kep
my body at an appropriate weight and can maintain my health . By spending
time with my friends I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. It is a
part of my recipe for healthful living.

06. Environmental-pollution
Goodmorning ladies and gentlmen. Let me introduce myself. My name is
Trinh Thi Hue Chi . I am from Yen Truong secondary school which has two
hundred and seventy students and twenty nine teachers . My favourite subject
is English . I think English is very interesting and useful in the future . In my
free time I often listen to English songs . Today I am very happy to stand here
to present a topic .“Environmental Pollution”
As you know, enviroment is the most important thing for our life.
Enviroment is the air we breath, the water we drink and is everything we
need for our life. But now that most important thing for our life is being
polluted and by many different ways. This pollution affects the health of
living things.
Air is the first neccessity because we can't breath without it but it is
damaged by car and lorry fumes, and power stations create acid rain which
destroys entire forests and lakes. When fossil fuels, oil, gas and coal are
burned to provide energy for lighting, cooking and so on …. they form
polluting gases. Not only on land but also in the sea, oils spills pollute sea
7

water and kill marine life; chemical waste from factories and artificial
fertilisers from farmland, killing wildlife and spreading disease. Everything is
being caused by human’s existence.
The water of rivers and seas is being constantly polluted all over the
world by various dangerous chemical and biological wastes. Mills and
factories discharge very harmful waste waters into many rivers and sea.
Humans create such a lot of rubbish! Each household produces about 1 tonne
of rubbish every year! Most of this is taken away by dustmen and buried in
enormous landfill sites or burned in incinerators - both of these actions can be
dangerous for the environment.
Beside that trees are being cut down rapidly. Our earth is becoming
warmer. If pollution continues, the day is not far when our earth will be a
boiling pan and become a desert. Or it will be covered with sea water causing
destruction of mankind.
However we can change it and solve it. Pollution can be prevented by thing
we do everyday.
First of all we can use recycled paper to help save trees and plant more trees
to get more oxigen for our life,also protect the village or town from flood
Secondly try to avoid buying plastic. It's hard to recycle. One way to cut
down on plastic is to refuse to use carrier bags. If we can’t avoid buying
plastic bags, we should use re-use plastic bags over and over again, until they
wear out.
Thirdly , We should use a bicycle or walk instead of using a car for short
trips we can save energy, keep clean atmosphere and keep healthy life. The
factories which pollute the air, water with poisonous liqid or gas must be
stopped and fined heavily.
Finally, at school we should teach the students how important the
inviroment is and how to protect it or organize some clubs , competition to
increase in students’s awareness

In sum we now know that enviroment is the most important thing for life
and we know how to protect and use it scientifically. Everyday we invent and
find more and more way to protect enviroment. I hope that in the future the
earth will be cleaner.

07. HEALTH AND MONEY
If you ask me health or wealth is more important, I will say without
hesitation that health is far more important and valuable than wealth. Let
consider, health is the necessary condition while wealth is the sufficient
condition. We need both of them in order to live happily . But as you can see,
the necessary condition is always more important.
Wealth can bring us a pleasant and comfortable life, but a certain fact we
can’t buy health with money. Today, there are still some deseases which have
no cure such as cancer, Human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) …although
nations pouring money into research it haven’t yet find a cure.
Wealth doesn’t always make life more healthily and happily. Rich people
are taken effect by money pressuse, it makes their life uncomfortable when
they always have to think about money and how to make money. Nowadays,
a rapid growth of competition in the market in the world makes people be
fighting to keep their jobs as well as their bread and butter issue and forget
how important their health is in a stressful environment. They don’t care
about themselves because they think money can keep them healthy. This is
completely erroneous, many people earn money like mad until they have
stress, and waste money on treatment. They have forgotten that after they die,
they
will
leave

everything
behind.
Money is also known as the source of social evils such as drug addiction,
gambling, prostitution…etc...
On the other hand, having good health would mean having a positiveimage and a balanced life. When we are strong and healthy, we feel genical
and happy. Good health allows us to learn and grow. It allows us to travel and
meet new friends. Without being fit, how can you enjoy your wealth. If a man
have health , he can have every thing . As an old saying : “Where there is
health , there is life “ That’s why health is more important than wealth. The
statistics are clear that people are healthy live longer and more happily than
rich ones
From my view points, I would like to be healthy instead of wealthy. I can
do anything include becoming rich but I can’t just work hard, drop my health
and live the rest of my life in bed . It’s good to live healthy and remember :
Wealth is only paper but health is the essence of us because it is the most
important
and valuable thing in life.

08. VIDEO GAMES
As we know the Internet has increasingly developed and become part
of our everyday life. Do you find the Internet useful ? What do you use the
Internet for? Do you use the Internet for playing videogames? And how much
time do you spend on games?
In my opinion, everything all has two sides: good and bad . As for me
Internet is a wonderful invention in our modern life, it makes our world
become a small village. However, it has limitations. And now I want to tell
you about the bad effect of the Internet on us, especially, on school. It called
“Video games”.

Firstly, It’s time consuming, Some students spend most of their free time
playing videogames. They have no time to take part in outdoor activities,
to communicate with others, Of course, they have no time to learn, to revise
their lessons, so they learn worse and worse than their friends, their results
are getting worse.
Secondly, It’s health collapse. They have to suffer from headache,
backache, dizzy or short sighted because they sit in front of the computers,
cellphones…from a short distance for a long time, they have no time to be
closed to the nature. More dangerously, some of us play unhealthy games.
Finally, It’s expensive. One hour playing games spends about four or
five thousand dong, some giddy students play hour by hour, day by day, even
they play truant to play games. while they are students, they have no money
to play. Besides, some games are too violent and they make their characters
bad. This lead to they become robbers, they steal others’ things such as
books, calculators, bicycles, more dangerously, some killed their relatives in
order to get money to play video games.
From these effects, for me I just spend thirty minutes a week playing
games and I only play games to relax. I hope you are the same to me. Let’s
play video games to relax.
The Government should pass regulation: not for people under the age
of 18 play video games during office hours.
Families and schools should educate children about the danger of video
games from early age. More importantly, help students, especially who are
addicts toward outdoor activities, happy and healthy life.

09. THE MID- AUTUMN FESTIVAL
There are many festivals in a year in Viet Nam .Today I want to talk about
one of them.It's the mid-autumn festival

By tradition the Vietnamese people love their children so much that they
organize Mid-Autumn festival for themselves but mainly for their children
This festival is celebrated on the 15th of the eighth month in the lunar
calendar .It's called Mid-Autumn festival because this festival takes place
exactly in the middle of Autumn when the moon is full.
The preparations for the festival are made a month before .The moon cakes
and toys as well as the lanterns of various designs are sold at the market or on
the street .People buy moon cake either for themselves or for their children
.Some people buy moon cakes as gifts for their friends and relatives .
On that day adults eat moon cakes over their tea while children are served
moon cakes,Mid-Autumn festival food and fruit .Children are very keen on
marching in a procession of lanterns in shapes of various things and animals
too.They are excited and amused by Mid-Autumn toys and lanterns.
It'very interesting to celebrate the Mid- Autumn festival by tradition .
How delighted we feel watching the bright full moon on a cool and breezy
evening of Mid-Autumn .

10. Video games and effects
In the model world, there are a lot of young people who play video
games. So, what are video games and how do they influence to our life,
especially to the young people?
Video games are interesting games that are often played on the
computer or on the internet. They extremely fascinate to every body by both
attractive sounds and colorful stages. However, every one has hardly known
their serious effects.
Firstly, if we play video games for a long time, our life will be
influenced. These games are fun but players should be careful because they
can be addictive. If we spend much time on video games, we won’t have time
on study and we will forget to do other important things in the life.We will
depend on video games. Many teenagers stole because they needed money

for video games.
11


Secondly, Video games are harmful to our health, too.We will become
tired or dizzy when we play video games for a long time. Our eyes will be
influenced. Scientists said “Video games aren’t good for children. They are
harmful to us. Children should take part in outdoor activities or programs of
school instead of playing video games”.
For the above reasons, we shouldn’t play video games for a long times
because they are very harmful and dangerous to our life
11. deforestation.
As we know, forests cover approximately one fifth of the worlds land
surface and play an important role in our everyday lives. They are one of the
most necessary natural resources that have been gifted to mankind. They not
only have major role in enhancing the quality of our environment but also
influence local and global climate. Forests are also our nation’s wealth.
Can you picture our earth without forests, we can , t, but the problem is
that “deforestation”. It is a major concern in today’s society.
Each year, millions of woodlands are destroyed, the varied species of
animals and insects from the forests are extinct. Morever, the uncontrolable
wildfires fueled by weather, wind and dry underwood not only consume our
beautiful forests but also the wildlife, our homes and the lives of those who
fight the wildfires.
Deforestation is causing many social, economic and ecological
problems. One ecological problem is global warming that changes the climate
of the whole world. With deforestation we are basically cutting our own
lungs. We take away an ecosystem that produces major oxygen and filter our
carbon dioxide, destroying forests products influences nation, s wealth, too.
Direct causes of deforestation are agricultural expansion, wood

extraction, infrastructural expansion such as road, building and urbanization.
Such activities result in flash floods, land slides and soil erosion, wild
animals are robbed of their natural habitats, with fewer trees there is an
increase in carbon dioxide but a decrease in oxygen production.
If forests are destroyed, there is no way that human can survive. From
oxygen that we breathe in, the food that we eat, to the clothes we wear, we
own it to the trees. We won’t have fuel, fodder, timber, medicine and other
products from the trees.
12


So what we should do immediately to change it and solve it. Forests
can be protected by things we do everyday.
Firstly, we can use recycled paper to help save trees. We avoid
destroying paper by consuming less paper and recycling them because one
ton of recycled papers save approximately 15 big trees.
Secondly, we need to conserve the old forests, rainforests and plant
more forests to make place for wild animals to live. Where deforestation has
taken it should be followed by reforestation. I suggest that everyone should
sow seeds to grow at least one tree every year.
Thirdly, every citizen from the young to the old especially students in
schools should be educated on the benefits of forests and ways of reusing and
recycling papers. Everyone should know that man is really trying to destroy
forests and directly cutting his life span, actually cutting one tree is equal to
subtracting one day of his life .So everyone should protect our forests,
prevent wildfires and remind each other to carry out. I think that any act of
kindness, no matter how small is never wasted. Beside that our government
needs to promulgate effective laws to punish offenders.
In conclusion, I would like to say that forests are our life. So please
take care of our forests as well as our earth. I hope that our planet will be

more and more green.
12. The importance of learning English
In my opinion, today English is one of the most important languages in
the world. English language is a common language and is spoken in many
countries. It can even be said to be the most important language. Learning
English is very important because it helps us communicate in foreign
countries, widens our kowledge and improves our chance of getting a good
job
Well, firstly, English language is the international language meaning
over 60% of the world,s population are speaking in English. This means that
we can communicate well if we do know how to speak the language. It will
help you gain friends not just locally but also it will open some doors for you
to venture on the other countries and spend either vacation or for studying
purposes. You can imagine when a person tralves to another part of the world
either because of busseness or even as a tourist without knowing English, it
is very difficult for him to understand. In these condition, English is the
13


language that helps people to deal with the situation. It is like a popular
language.
Secondly, learning English widens people,knowledge. The instructions
given in some appliances, equipments, and food labels were written mostly in
English. It will be important that you understand what was written on the
instructions so that no harm or accidents will happen. Besides all these, there
are many interesting and good programs written, produced by American or
British companies. If we are good at English we can collect and watch
television,s best programs we want. Knowing English will also enable you to
enjoy some of the world,s most beautiful works written in English.
Finally, students at school not only it is simply one of their subjects but

also their need in the future. We have to study English well is that it will help
them to get a job with high salary when we graduate. When you go for a job
interview, the interviewer will surely talk to you in English. If you cannot
speak English well, your chances of getting the job are very slim. A good
command of English will also help you greatly in your job. If the company
you work is involved in international trade, you have to speak to customers in
English. If your English is bad, you will not be able to get orders for your
company,s products. You will likely be dismissed.
In Viet Nam, English has been regarded as the most important foreign
language nowadays, especially since the Vietnamese Government carried out
the open door policy. English has been taught for a long time in Viet Nam. It
becomes a compulsory subject in most universities and schools throughout the
country. Recently, The Ministry of Education and Training has announced 12th
graders will take just one examination, instead of two separate examinations as
at present. And language is chosen to be one of official subjects for one
national exam. This reason motivates the students to learn English . I hope that
with this new change, more and more Vietnamese students will pass the
national exam with their high results.
And the last one, I would like to tell you that although people in any
parts of the world might not have the same accent as others, the language at
least will be understandable. That is all my own reasons why learning English
is very important to all people on this earth.
13.Country and city life
14


In my opinion, urban life or rural life has its own advantages and
disadvantages.
First, living in the city we may enjoy those benefits:
- Thanks to electricity network and running water, our material lives

are more comfortable. Supermarkets, markets and shops are found
everywhere and we can buy anything we need providing that we can afford it.
- Urban life provides us with all kinds of entertainments: movies,
theatres, concerts and famous recreation centers.
- Living in the city, we can improve our knowledge easily by attending
any schools, universities or evening classes where experienced teachers and
professors are ready to satisfy our thirst for knowledge.
Besides its advantages, urban life also has its disadvantages:
- Our health is in danger: pollution by factories and heavy traffic may
cause serious diseases to all of us.
- Violent deaths happen regularly in such a crowded city with all kinds
of vehicles.
On the contrary, rural life seems ideal to all of us, especially to the
old.
- We can enjoy fresh, cool air and beautiful landscapes in the country.
- How safe and delighted we are when we can sleep soundly at any
time of the day without being disturbed by horns of cars or by deafening
noises from factories.
- Our social lives in the country are easier: we can eat the food and
vegetables we grow, the chickens we raise. The countrymen lead a very
simple life and they are ready to help one another in any case.
Apart from these advantages, living in the country we may meet a
lot of difficulties too.
- Our knowledge is limited by being short of mass media.
- Our social and physical lives are not as comfortable as those in the
city.

15

In conclusion, our love for city life or country life depends on our
outlook and age. As for me, I always prefer rural life to urban life.
This is the end of my presentation. Thank you for listening!

14. The importance of water
Since the beginning of time, water has continued to be an important thing to
all living things. Without water nothing could live.
Man has always looked for pure fresh water to slake his thirst.
Firstly,Water not only quenches our thirst but it is also a source of food to
us. From the sea we catch large quantities of fish and other creatures.
Secondly, We use water to irrigate our lands to produce crops. Many parts of
the world are dry and barren because there is no water there. People in such
places lead a very hard life. Thirdly, Water also helps to increase the fertility
of the land in several parts of the world. Even electricity, which has changed
our lives completely, is produced by water-power in many countries.
Finally, water is an important means of transportation. We use waterways to
carry our goods or trade. Water transport is cheaper than land transport. In
many countries rivers are used to bring down timber from the hilly regions to
the lower regions where the timber mills are. In this way much money is
saved.
It is true, however, water has caused much destruction to life and property
throughout human history. Heavy rainfall, tidal waves have killed thousands
of people and destroyed homes and crops. People throw away garbage, dead
animals into the river and the chemistry waste from factories have also
caused much pollution to our water resource. Yet, water is indispensable to
life, and people everywhere are trying their best to bring water to places
where it is scarce.
In conclusion, water plays an important part in our lives. Everyone should do
something to protect it.
15. School Games

16


As you know: There are various types of games played in schools.
Some games are meant for boys and others for girls.Football (soccer),hockey
and rugby are popular games among boys while netball, basketball and
badminton are girls’favorite games.
Playing games gives plenty exercise for all the muscles of our body .
They make strong the lungs and make a child healthy . The physical talent of
a child develops if she or he plays games or participate in cross- country race
or gymnastic activities .
Games also give the best opportunity for boys and girls to learn cooperation and the habit of obeying rules . They may learn the team spirit
instead of self –interest. It enables students to become good citizens. A game
like football is played by a team of eleven players and each one has to follow
the rules of the game. In this way all the players show co-operation in a team
to win the games.
In our school various games are organised by our sports teacher for
boys and girls . Every evening games are played after classes. Our school
has a large playground for football , basketball , and netball games . There is
an indoor badminton court as well for both boys and girls .
Every student should involve in one or the other game for physical,
mental and moral development.

16. We should live in the countryside
I think living in the coutryside is something that people from the city often
dream about. Because there are certainly many advantages to living in the
countryside.
First of all, in the countryside, life is quiet, peaceful, relaxing and especially
very safe.
You don’t have to face the traffic jams, the pressure of work or all the tricks

that can come to you at any time.
Moreover, people tend to be friendlier and open with the environment . The
countryside is incredibly green with fertile fields and bamboo forests. That’s
17


the suitable place they can live. In addition, life is healthier in the
countryside with clean, fresh air and lots of open space for children. They can
both fly their kites and play in the fields.
In conclusion, it can be seen that the countryside is more suitable for some
people than others. On the whole, it is often the best place for those who are
retired or who have young children.
17. What you do for good health.”
Our health is the only and the most precious thing we really have in the
world. It’s also the most valuable property which makes our life happier and
more enjoyable. I believe that everyone has their own methods to keep them
healthy. As far as I am concerned, a healthy diet, doing exercise, keeping off
bad habits taking medical examinations regularly, and friends are my own
methods in staying healthy.
Eating healthfully is important to maintain our health. You should have
a balanced diet. That means you should eat a variety of food without too
much of anything. Such as eating a moderate amount of fatty food and sugar;
eating some body-building food, like meat and dairy products; eating plenty
of cereals, fruits and vegetables.
Doing exercise regularly and effectively is another part of staying
healthy. It is necessary for you to spend twenty or thirty minutes doing
exercise every day. Furthermore, choosing a suitable sport for you to take up
is very important. Why do I say so? The reason is that if you choose a
suitable sport, you will do it better. It will be effective for you as you expect.
In addition, our bad habits such as drinking, smoking, staying up late

are hidden enemies of our health: drinking and smoking lead to many
dangerous diseases such as lung cancer, throat cancer, mouth cancer….and
cause million of deaths yearly while staying up late is the reason of
sleeplessness and stress. That is also the reason why we should never smoke
or drink and go to bed after 10.30 pm. Certainly, avoiding those unhealthy
habits is a key to keep us healthier.
Beside that, we should see the doctor for taking the medical
examinations twice a year to make sure that our health is good. Most people
have a bad habit that they only have a medical check-up when they sick.
However, some health problems or diseases can not be seen until they
become serious. There is a saying goes: “ An apple a day keeps the doctor
18


away”. Therefore, taking the medical examination regularly helps us realize
and prevent dangerous diseases before they become worse.
And the last advice for good health is friends. This seems not to be
related to people’s health, do you think that? We know that friends play an
important role in our life. They also are important part of our health. Friends
often bring happiness and help us deal with stress. A lot of studies have
shown that emotional health is related to physical health. Spending time with
friends helps keep us emotionally healthy.
On the whole, it is not hard to figure out how to get a good health but it
is more difficult to do that. Thinking about a healthy diet, avoiding drinking
or smoking is very easy; however we all know that doing those is extremely
difficult. We need one more thing than those tips to get good health.
Unquestionably, it is our determination.
18. What can we do to protect our enviroment?

Good morning ladies and gentlemen. My name’s Thanh and I’m from

Dinh Tuong secondary school.Today, I’m happy to take part in English
speaking contest school year 2014-2015.On behalf of all students of Dinh
Tuong secondary school allow me to give my love and my best wishes to the
teachers and students. I would like to wish our contest successfully.Now, I
will present my speaking the topic is Environment.
Enviroment is the most important thing for our life. Enviroment is the air
we breath, the water we drink and is everything we need for our life. But now
that most important thing for our life is being polluted by many different
ways. This pollution affects the health of living things. Air is damaged by
exhaust fume from cars and lorries, and power stations create acid rain which
destroys entire forests and lakes. When fossil fuels i.e. oil, gas and coal are
burned to provide energy for lighting, cooking etc. they form polluting
gases. Not only on land but also in the sea, oils spills pollute sea water and
kill marine life; chemical waste from factories and sewage works, and
artificial fertilisers from farmland, pollute river water, killing wildlife and
spreading disease. Everything is being caused by human’s existence. Humans
create such a lot of rubbish! Each household produces about 1 ton of rubbish
every year! Most of this is taken away by dustmen and buried in enormous
landfill sites or burned in incinerators - both of these actions can be
19


dangerous for the environment.
But only we can change it and solve it. Pollution can be prevented by
thing we do everyday. First we can use recycled paper to help save trees.
Second try to avoid buying plastic. It's hard to disolve. One way to reduce
plastic is to refuse to use carrier bags. If we can’t avoid buying plastic bags,
we should reuse plastic bags, until they wear out. Finally we should take your
old clothes to charity shops, some are sold. To protect environment we also
have to save energy.

Use less energy by switching off lights when rooms
are not in use, not wasting water; don’t forget to switch off all electric things
when they are not in use, use a bicycle or walk instead of using a car for short
trips we can save energy, keep clean atmosphere and keep healthy life.
Lighting accounts for 10 percent to 15 percent of the electricity bill.
However, this amount can be reduced by replacing an ordinary 100-watt light
bulb with an energy-saving bulb and we still trying to invent the new thing to
save money as well as conserve the Earth’s resources.
Keeping the environment clean isn’t enough, we have to protect natural
resources. That is the way to conserve wild life. First we need to conserve the
old forests, rainforests, and plant more forests to make place for wild animals
to live . Secondly, we need to prohibit hunters who hunt animals too many
out of the law allowance.
Finally, we now know that enviroment is the most important thing for
life and we know how to protect and use it scientifically. Everyday we invent
and find more and more way to protect enviroment.
I hope that in the future the earth will be cleaner.
Thank you for your listening.

19. STUDENTS WITH VIDEO GAMES
Good morning ladies, gentlemen, gentle teachers and all the students in the
competition today!
The first words I’d like to convey to you wishes for health, happiness, sucess
and good contest success.
My fullname’s Lu Huyen Tram. I am in grade 9 and I am from Yen Trung
secondary school.
20


Today I’d like to tell you about “students with video games”.

We know that along with the development of science and technology.
Nowadays, almost everything is done with the help of computers.
Computers have made life easier and more convenient for everybody. There
are a lot of games on computers ,too. The students today left folksy games
such as playing marbles, blindman’s bluff …. And they play video games
everywhere. A lot of students play them without thinking of studying and
come up with bad activities. What do you think about it?
Playing video games is originally a healthy pastime but playing it too much is
bothering the families, the schools and the society. We can see many students
sitting hourly in front of the computers and forgetting their studying. Infact,
video games attracts a lot of people, especially students because of its super
qualities as lively pictures and voice suitably for the young. We can’t deny
that playing video games has both advantages and disadvantages.
Firstly, I want to deal with its advantages. Playing video games helps train
our mind sensibly to solve the situations skillfully and actively. It helps us
enrich our knowledge as well as relax after hard studying hours.
However, playing video games too much brings us disadvantages. It wastes
time and money even makes students distract their studying. Besides, it
makes us tired, dizzy, short-sighted and lack of living skills. This leads to
other bad effection to ourselves and people around.
So what should we do to reduce this? Every student must be aware of
advantages and disadvantages of playing games. We have to adjust the time
without effecting our studying because video games can be addictive. We
must be careful and we can play it when our parents allow.
In my opinion, all the students should take part in healthy and useful
activities like outdoors activities to develop our social skills. I hope all of
you support my ideas to perfect ourselves and get succeed in our studying.
20. THE EFFECT OF NATURAL DISASTERS
We can meet many problems in our life nowaday but the natural
disasters are the most serious problems for us. We have known some serious

natural disasters such as: Flood, typhoon, vocano, storm, earthquake,
whirlwind, sand-storm …
21


- These disasters happen almost every year in everywhere on the
earth. The effect of natural disasters is very serious.
- Natural disasters destroy the constructions that have value of both
culture and mental for example the garden of stone.
- Natural disasters destroy harvests in the countryside, this leads to
the lack of food, increasing the price of goods, affecting on tourism,
industry, agriculture in many countries.
- We knew in Japan in 2011 the earthquake and big wave destroyed
Sandai city and some provines in Japan. The thousands of people
died and the thounsands of people didn’t find out, the damage after
the earthquake and big wave were so big for Japanese. It costed the
billions of dolar. When we saw these disasters on TV, I thinh that
everybody cried and love Japanese. And may be it takes a long time
and costs much money to rebuild the houses, buildings, stadiums …
- I hope that we will not meet these damages and we avoid natural
disasters in the future and we will have a wonderfull life.
21.the famous places in Viet Nam.
As we know, there are many famous places from north to south in Viet
Nam.
First of all, I/d like to talk about Ha Long Bay.
Ha Long Bay is situated in north Vietnam round a 120- kilometer long coast
line and is literally translated as “Bay of Descending Dragons”. And It is
recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The top tourist attraction
in Vietnam, Ha Long Bay features thousands of islands, each topped with
thick jungle vegetation, forming a spectacular seascape of limestone pillars.

Several of the islands are hollow, with enormous caves, other islands include
lakes and some support floating villages of fishermen.
The second place is Sapa
Sa Pa is a mountainous town in northwest Vietnam not far from the Chinese
border. Rice terraces can be found in the Muong Hoa valley between Sa Pa
town and the Fansipan Mountain. There are many beautiful mountain slopes
and jungle streams. Local mountain people, the Hmong, Dao, and Tay, grow
rice and corn on these paddy terraces, along with vegetables.
The third place is Nha Trang
Nha Trang is VietNam,s most seaside resort and an ideal center for
relaxation. This coastal city is a ten – kilometer beach and 19 islands. It
22


features beautiful beaches with fine and clean sand and clear ocean water
with mild temperatures. And there are many wonderful sights such as oceanic
institute, giant Buddha, Cham towers, Vin Pearland…
The next place is Da Lat
Dalat is the capital of Lam Dong Province in Vietnam. The city is located
4,900 feet above sea level on the Langbian Plateau in the southern parts of
the Central Highlands region. Dalat is very famous for fine trees, waterfalls,
lakes and flowers. Flowers can be found everywhere and in any season
because the city’s temperate weather stands in contrast to Vietnam's
otherwise tropical climate. Mist covering the valleys almost year-round leads
to its name "City of Eternal Spring".
And the last place I would like to tell you about Hanoi, the capital of the
Socialist Republic of Vietnam
Hanoi is the country’s principal economic and cultural center. It is a historical
city and known as “Capital of thousand years of culture”. We can visit many
famous places in Han noi such as Ho Chi Minh/s Mausoleum, The Temple of

Literature, Hoan Kiem lake and many beautiful parks and zoos … and Hanoi
people in particular and Vietnamese people in general are very friendly and
hospitable.
Have you ever been to these places? If not. Visit them as soon
as possible.
22. Which places would you prefer to live city or country life?
As you know the question “ Which places would you prefer to live city or
country? ” Is it difficult to answer? Do you agree with me? . Oh, yes. I was
born and grew up in the country so I know my home village very clearly.
There are many benefits such as life is simple, quiet people are friendly,
hospitable, they are willing to help each other. Anymore the air is clean and
peaceful. The food and vegetable is fresh even cheaper. Although there are a
lot of benefits in the country I prefer living in the city to living in the country
because of some reasons.
The first reason.
I am certain that living in city is better .It is a place where many buildings,
factories, companies, offices have been built. It is a good chance for many
people to get different kind of jobs and can make better choices for their own
future. I belived that well- paying jobs are plentiful in the city you can earn
money easily.More over there are many different services .for example
beautiful salons, good hospitals, good universities, supermarkets and
23


bookstores On the other hand in the country life is always a struggle with
nature. Typhoons, floods or droughts can easily destroy a harvest and leaves
the farm with little or no money untill the following year.
The second reason.
City life is more exciting than country life. There are many chance to attend
cultural events to entertain. After a hard working and learning week. It is a

good a place for them to relax and learn by themselves. Such as the movie
theaters, museums, zoos and concerts. There fore if you want to go to the
restaurant,there is wide selections of food you can eat anything, anywhere
you can go but you don’t have this choice in the country the same two or
three restaurants. Everything is the same.
Thirdly. Transportation is easier in a city everything is more exciting
inthe country. In the country . You have to catch a car to get around . Because
there isn’t any kind of public transportation. In the city. there are many kind
of transportation services such as taxi, airplan, train usually buses and taxis .
Using public transportation is usually cheaper and more convenient than
driving a car . But it is difficult for you to do this.
In short. Living in the city has more benefits in the country . you see the
millions of people are coming to the city. That’s why I choose to live in the
city.
23. Da Lat – The unforgettable destination
I. Opening:
In Vietnam, there are so many interesting destinations such as Sa Pa, Ha
Long Bay, Sam Son beach, Phong Nha Cave ...(etc)... but in my opinion, Da
Lat is the place that almost all visitors often choose when they have a chance
to go to on their vacations, and I’m also a lucky person to travel to Da Lat
with my parents last summer.
II. Body:
First of all, I would like to talk about the climate. Located on langbian
highlands, part of the central highlands of Vietnam. Da Lat is 1500m above
sea level. The climate offers tourists a perfect atmosphere to enjoy the
holidays. The weather is pleasant throughout the year with brilliant
sunshines. Now and then, fog comes in which creates a lively and romantic
setting in the city. It will be more beautiful at moon night when you sit
drinking a cup of hot coffee in the cool, quiet and peaceful distance that a
24

feeling of warmth, happiness will come around. A moment in time, nobody
wants to leave. Da Lat is also known as the city of Eternal Spring.
The second viewpoint is about landscapes. There are lots of nice views in
Da Lat and all of them are symbols or special places of it; for example: Xuan
Huong Lake, Love Valley, Than Tho Lake, Cam Ly Waterfall and so on.
Thinking that if people arrive in Da Lat, they don’t forget to see. Another
attraction of it is the wonderful scenery. There are many beautiful gardens
and lovely French colonial architecture here. Walking along the streets in the
shade of tall pine trees, visitors can see beautiful flowers. In addition, tourists
to Da Lat also have opportunity to broaden their knowledge about ethnic
minorities. Each tribe has different languages, customs which promotes the
diversity of cultures.
The other factor to mention is delicious fresh food in Da Lat. Thanks to
nature born specialties vegetable and fruit products. Especially salad mixed
with fresh vegetables. This makes Da lat foods more different from others. If
you are looking for a good food, don’t forget to eat street food which made
tasteful such as sweet potato, strawberry jam...
Finally, I would like to mention people and traffic in Da Lat. People
are very friendly and truthful. I stayed there two days and recognized a lot.
People living here are mainly tribal people who work hard to earn living and
always optimistic about their life. Although I met them at first time, I got a
friendly smile. Going along streets, I didn’t see traffic lights or the police
anywhere but there was no accident. This can’t have in my province.
III. Closing:
In conclusion, Da Lat is a wonderful place for everyone to go for their
holiday.

24.VIDEO GAMES.

And now, I would like to say something about the positive effects.
- First of all, games help students relax after school and give them fun such as
game of caro, Mario, chess…
