Part 1: Say about things relating to your life
1. - which colors do you like to wear? Why?
Each color has its own symbol and meaning. Depending on the typle of clothe, I
will choose the approiate color. As for T-shirt, I wear a lot of color like blue, yellow,
orange, white,… to change every day. My jacket is mostly black, because I don’t
like my colorful showers, I want to it’s that simple. The color of pants I wear is
completely black I think I’m a fairly straightforward and unimportant person.
- Do you send letters or e-mails? Why?
For me, I prefer to send by email. Because it is very fast and convinient. Only need
wifi or mobile network can send it then. Morever, sending via email is not only
documents, it can also send videos, images and more, and within a minute, the
email will be received, while sending by letter is time consuming, it is difficult
transportation.
- Is there anythings else regarding the use of computers you would need to
learn?
For me the computer is very convinient. I can use it to learn like learning online,
learning through Youtube videos, or searching for the information needed to
improve my knowledge. In addition to studying, I also studied writing documents,
making Powerpoints or Excel to meet the needs of life and modern science more.
Besides, I can watch movies, listen to music for entertainment after a week of tiring
studying.
2. - what was the last picture to look?
I rarely take picture, so maybe the last photo I took was two week ago. That day
was the anniversary of my aunt’s death, so my sister and I had the opportunity to
meet after more than a year. My sister married and went to work far from home, so
when we met again we had lots of emotions and we took lots of photo to make
memories.

1

- Do you think nowadays people take too many pictures?
In the current technological era, photography is a favorite of of most young people,
even the alderly love to take picture, people say it is their passion. They go
anywhere they can take pictures, each time there must be hundereds of photos.
However, I find too much phoyography not good. For example, when travelling
instead of enjoying the atmosphere and take photos and check-in, which makes
their relationship worse.
- Is there a special family portrait (chân dung) that you like a lot?
No, my family doesn’t have a special portrait yet. As planned, this year I turn 20
years old, my family will go to take a pictures, but one of the worst things in my life
happened at that time, the time when it was supposed to be the best in my life. So it
was impossible to get that special family portrait.
3. - How do you spend your weekends?
I usually go home to spend the weekends. I spend time with myself and with my
family. I get 2 days off, so on Saturdays I usually sleep, because after 1 week of
studying tired. I help my family with housework, because my house opened
carpentry workshop so it is very dusty, or I could revice old lessons. On Sundays, I
often go to visit my grandmothers, relatives or may be go out to eat with my
friends.
- Where did you go on a holiday?
I have been travelling in many places such as Quang Ninh, Quang Binh, Hai Phong,
ect. However, to talk about the place that impresses me most is Da Nang. There, I
went to Ba Na Hills, as soon as I arrived, I found it very beautiful, it has medieval
French architicture, there are many games, foods, and especially there has many
different types of flowers. There, I felt like I was lost in a place. I think I will go
there again.

2

- Do you want to go to that place again?
Of couse! The atmosphere is very fresh, people are civilized and hospitable. And
there are many place I have not exployed yet such as Cau Vang, Depay wine Cellar,
ect. So I want to go there again many times.
4. - Do you know your neighbors?
I know almost every one in my neighborhood, even the other ones. My house is
right in the center of neighborhood so I have lots of neighbors. They are not only
friendly but also kind and cute.
- Did your neighors help you in any way?
Yeah! As I said, my family was most difficult, they always helped. My family has
been through many incidents, but they are still there and helping my family from
the smallest things. People belive that, sell distant brothers to meet such neighbors.
I feel I’m so fortinate to meet such neighbors.
- Would you prefer to have young or old people as neighbors?
I like both. Older people, they have a lot of experience to give ne useful advice, or
help me solve difficult problems. And the young ones are closer to my age, they
understand my thoughts or my mood more. In general, regardless of whether the
elderly or young people are my neighbors, I also adore them.
5. - Do you like reading book?
When I was a high school, I was indolent (=very lazy) reading., but after I went to
college, I learned more, I realized that reading is very important, it helps us expand
knowledge improve my vocabulary and what I realize when reading is I became
more calm and handled the situation calmly.

3


- What kind of books do you like to read?
I don’t have any favorite book of any kind. Which books I find good, I read, the
three most recent books which are read by me, are Love books, Self-help books and

Novels for teenagers. In ther future, I want to read other types of books such as
political books and science and technology books, because my knowedge is still
limited.
- Do you use a mobile phone often?
I think I’m a mobile addict. Apart from studying, I spend most of my time on
mobile phones surfing facebook, chating with friends, watching movies and more.
As long as I’m free, I use the phone again. I don’t think that’s a good thing.
- Do you think that in the future we will use mobile phones more?
I am aware that I spend too much time on my phone but I have difficulty using less
phones. I think I am addicted to the phone, although it is not too serious, but I think
I need to limit the use of the phone, I can read or exercise, I will try to be a healthy
pperson.
6. - Do you live in a city, a town or village?
I live in a small town which is Ben Sung town. Here life is busy and bustling.
Friendly and fun people. Especially, where I live is a neighborhood of Thailand
descent. Their voicesare very special, they sound very good. We used to joke, the
cured like singing and their food was also spaecial and dilicious.
- Is it a nice place to live?
For me the town where I live is wonderful. I love this place, where I had a happy
chilhood. My hometown also has a national park of the province, which is Ben En
National Park. This is place is on the rise, beautiful and increasingly attracting
tourists.

4


- Is it good for young people?
I think so. Young people in the place where I live often return home to sittle down
(start up) or work. In recent years very rapid development took place in this town
although newly established 20 years ago.

7. - Is it important to know foreign languages?
I don’t agree more. Learning a foreign language means learning more about a
culture. With the integration of the would together with the foreign companies’
penetration into Vietnam market, the importance of foreign language will facititate
our future and promote our career.
- How many languages do you speak?
I am Vietnamese. I am maijoring in English Pedagogy, and my second language is
French. But to say that I can speak a good language does not. Because I don’t speak
well and I think I need to practice a lot to be able to speak excellently (really well)
- What other language would you like to learn?
If possible I want to learn Korean an Chinese. At the moment, I am trying to learn
Chinese on my own on pages on Facebook and buy books to learn more. During
the international integration period, knowing a lot of foreign languages was
excellent, and I simply learned Chinese to watch movies without subtitles.
8.- Who do you spend your spare time with?
I spend most of your free time for the family. Because you know, I go to school far
away, there is not much time for the family. So, there is free time I'm back to my
family. At home, I feel comfortable, pleasant, are talked, storytelling with the
family. So is the peaceful to me!

5


- What do you usually do?
On my free time, I do many things. I helped the family work home, like cleaning
the house, because my home opened a small carpenter next to my house, so always
dust. Because my home cooks the staff, so always on the kitchen, so I cook for help
my family, take care of my lovely dogs. It is also possible that I learned and do
homework.
- What do young people in your country do in their spare time?

According to my observation and understanding, today's children often have a
negative lifestyle. They spend too much time and especially free time for phones,
for networking, for games and more harmful things. I think it is not good for their
health and spirit. I think that young people should be educated, especially selfconsciousness to help free time become meaningful and more positive.
- Do men have more spare time than women?
In my opinion, men have more free time. men and women today alike work. but in
addition to working, women also have to do housework, go to the market, take care
of children and many other unnamed jobs. Sometimes women don't even have time
for themselves. I hope that men should share housework with their women, so that
they can take care of themselves more.
9. - What holiday destination do you wish to visit?
Well, I want to go to Dalat once in my life, or if possible, many times. Dalat is
being the flower city. There have many flowers and the weather is cool. Dalat is

comfortable. You can go to the market buy some special food such as strawberry,
confectionery, atiso, tea, coffee, souvenir or go shopping.

Da Lat city is located in the center of the southern highlands, 300 km far from the
north of Ho Chi Minh City. In this beautiful city, the weather changes constantly,
the noon is quite warm and cool while in the evening it is greatly cold. In general,
the climate is relatively mild and suitable for avaiable flora and fauna to grow. This
is also the reason that in Da Lat there are many kinds of beautiful and precious
flower. When we come here , it is like that we go to the forest with all kinds of
flowers such as hydrangea flowers, mi mo da flowers, Mexican sunflowers, ... In
addition, in Da Lat there are many interesting places such as Me Linh coffee
garden, Than Tho lake, Camly waterfall, Da Lat station, ... The more we discover,

the more beauty and excitement in Dalat we find. I hope that there will be more
opportunities to come there in the near future.

voices, everything is different, but very nice and strange. I am very proud to be a
citizen in my town.

When we were high school students, we often went to each other's house to play.

meet, we go out to eat, or organize a small party or something to review our
memories and talk to each other.
- How often do you see them?
After finishing high school, I went to college. My friends each have a place. People
go to work, people go to school, but we are not close. only when we are really free,
for example, on the weekends, we call each other's facetime, chat, talk together.
- Do you prefer to go out with your family or with friends?
For me, I prefer going out with friends. because when I go out with them I feel
comfortable, I can do what I like, eat what I like to eat. And the family is still
comfortable, but it will be confined within a certain framework. It is not like going
with friends.

preventing certain diseases like heart disease and cancer.

In my opinion, before the society had not developed, the economy of the families in
the society was poor, then healthy foods were probably luxurious to everyone. You
can eat whatever you like, as long as you don't get hungry. However, with a society

as strong as now and economic life is better off in every family. People also focus
on their health and care more about their daily food and drink. and they eat healthy
foods to ensure their best health while technology and a variety of harmful foods
are also increasing.

photography, you can find beauty in the most unlikely of places. Photographs are a
means of showing and sharing experiences with those close by, or with the world.

that be?

money on printing.

Part 3: Answer examiners' questions
1. - Do you think men are different from women in character?
Of couse, women and men have so many differentes, from lifestyle activities, love
and even in thinking. Example, which men often wait when it is very urgent to do it.
And women always need time to prepare. Men often forcus on their advantages, so
sometimes they judge them selves more strongly than they actually ar. Women often
think about their wearnesses, they often hestate, worry and think that they are
inferior to reality.
17

- Do you think a person can change his character?
I think so, but only partially, I used to be a shy person, due to everyone’s
suggestions, especially my parents and my own efforts to change. Now, I fell more
confident.
- Can it be that people won't accept you because of your character?
I think that is absolitely true, because even if I see someone in a bad way then I
can’t accept it selfifhness, for example, because I’m an open-minded person, I hate
people who are selfish, selfish people who only care about their own interests and
not others. That made me very uncomfortable.
2. - Is there any differences between the traditional and modern educational
systems?
In my opinion, it is completely different. Traditional education is a closed system,
focusing on the teacher, with rigid regulations about schools, curriculum, teaching,
learning and evaluation methods. While the modern education systems is growing
steadily with the outstanding advances of scince and technology, and human
knowledge; especially humanity, humanity recognized and respected by people; all
for human beings for everyone.
- What are the pros and cons of the current educational system in your
country?
About cons, contents, programs, educational methods are outdated, slow to
innovate, show to modernize, not closely associated with social life and
occupational labor; not promote ceativity, practical capacity of students. About pros,
always innovating and changing to be more approriate and diverse in education and
testing. I think education in my country needs to learn fro countries around the
world for a better and more modern.

18

- Do you think it is nescessary to give comment or criticism to teachers?
I think teaching is a sacred and noble profession, once they were teachers, they had
to carry a great responsibility already, and for the current trend of education reform,
they also have to learn and cultivate hard. So I feel they are always loved and
respected.
3. - What things do people buy for special occasions?
I think depending on the special occasion and the object that people will buy. I see
that in Vn, almost every speacial occasion the buy flower or money. Because money
is the most realistic and there is no need to think about whether or not they like.
- Are men or women better at shopping for special occasions?
Naturally women, in my oppinion, women are better at shopping for special
occasion. Men’s temperament is open, and they don’t notice the small things.
Women are more thoughtful, more sophisticated and know how to spend.
- Do you think that advertisements can make people buy things they do not
need?
I think women will be more attracted to advertising. The shopping needs of women
are very high, and they are attracted by the beautiful clothes or simply because the
ads have their idols, espectially girls. A month women have shop dozens of times,
but men are about one or two times not even.
4. - Is it easier to learn a language if you know about the culture?
Well, I think so. Because when I know the culture of a country I get excited, it
makes me more passionate to learn thelanguage of that country. For example, I am
learning for second language is French, before sudying, the teacher let me learn
about French culture, the crchitechtural works there which made me feel interested
and wanted to learn French immediately.

- Does visiting a different country make learning a language easier?
19

Well, I think it is completely true, when visiting another country, I will be learn
about the culture, customs and traditions of that country, and especially, I can
communicate with indigenous people. That will make me learm the language easier.
- Does visiting another country help you learn your own culture better?
Yeal! I believe that when I get to experience in real life, it will help me learn my
own culture better. When I have experience in their culture, I am go ing to dive into
it, it helps me remember longer and better understand noy only people but also their
style.
5. - Do you what TV often?
When I was little, I loved watching moves, but I rarely watch it when I go to college
parly because I don’t like it anymore. Most of the time, there isa cell phone. All
information or programs are available on the phone. Whether you study or whatch
movies, are up there.
- Are there programs you can learn something from?
I watched the Sing your Dream show. It is a program where I learn a lot of about the
value of life, love people around, love my family and apprecate what you have
because in this world there more people suffering than me, and I are luckier than
many people.
- How does a person become famous?
Tobe a celebrity is difficult. They must be truly capable. Many celebrities are
famous for their good singing or acting skills or influential people like Kanh Vy
who are good at English or Miss International Transgender Huong Giang.

- What about the people who participate in reality shows? How do they
become famous?
20

to wards it becoz it gives a lot of publicity to an individual and makes him/her a
known personality from nothing.
6. - Give examples of women's role (chức năng) and responsibilities (trách
nhiệm) in different societies.
For example, Eastern women are the women of the family. According to the
concept, women have to take care of their families, and there are many back ward
families, women are aqual, women and men are equally responsible. In Germany,
for example, husbands often do more to slow respect to their wives.
- Do you think responsibilities are shared equally between husband and
wife?
I don’t agree more, in modern technology, women and men need equality and equal
work. Now women can go to work like men, whatever men do, women can do the
same. So I think people should changes their minds, and don’t put heavy
responsibilities on women.

discharged into the invoronment, need to be treated first.

young people in society. Students who do well in school are better able to make the
transition into adulthood and to achieve occupational and economic success.

In my opinion, well- knowns need talent, beauty and education. That way, they can
become influential people. However, not everyone is highly educated. There are
many famous people who only go to high school, but still make a big impact on
everyone.

lot, increasing the amount of waste.

Each year millions of tourists visit the beautiful places of the countries. will not
eliminate factors that affect its natural beauty. Any development requires some
interference with nature. Very often the infrastructure is built without any
sustainable development plan or environment protection policies. Therefore
development comes at the cost of nature. In addition, New areas of land need to be
cleared for new hotels and roads.

environment is being depleted, and ecosystem imbalance. We need condemnation to
protect nature - the precious things that the planet brings.

For me, Being close to nature will of course make you happier, more comfortable
and more peaceful. Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces
anger, fear, and stress and increases pleasant feelings. Exposure to nature not only
makes you feel better emotionally, it contributes to your physical wellbeing,
reducing blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tension, and the production of stress
hormones. It may even reduce mortality, according to scientists such as public
health researchers Stamatakis and Mitchell.

to communicate with people around me. try to stand in front of the crowd to change
my shyness. I've gradually become more confident, and indeed, I can improve my
relationships in society, especially in schools. I know more people who can help
me both in my life and in school.

convenient. The reality shows that, people who sell online, sell very well. And
especially, the price is always cheaper than the real shop.

I think there are five items that people often buy, those are clothes, accessories,
makeup, books and electronics. because, firstly, it's easy to search online.
Secondly, prices are always better than real stores. Finally, it's convenient. Think
about it, for example, in hot weather like this, you have to go out, go to the store,
and try on clothes. Instead, online sellers, who are always enthusiastic about your
size, you just need to agree and give the address, you have nice clothes without
going anywhere.
- What are the effects of online shopping on the society or local communities
(cộng đồng địa phương)?
I think everything has two sides: good and bad. Online shopping has many
advantages such as fast, easy, convenient and affordable. However, it also has
many harmful effects on society or local communities. Nowadays there are a lot of
fraudulent online sellers, the post is good, but in fact the goods are too bad. or
online sales also cause environmental pollution. When packaging, they must wrap
a lot of plastic bags, adhesive tape, which takes hundreds of years to decompose.
15. - Why do people take long distance travels?
People like to travel long distances, because they have a lot of time with their loved
ones. they can enjoy nature without having to rush. Besides, long distance travel is

train to move several tons of goods on a single journey may cost nothing less than
10 trailers to move the same goods at a higher cost.
