Absolutely. Music is a big part of my daily routine and helps me feel more relaxed.

I like pop music because it’s catchy and easy to listen to. Sometimes I also enjoy classical music when I need to focus.

I use email every day for both work and study. It’s the main way I receive important information.

Email is fast and convenient, and it allows you to keep a clear record of messages. It’s also free and easy to use.

12. LEARNING ENGLISH

  1. Part 2
  1.  Tặng quà cho em gái.
  • 1 cái váy
  • 1 bó hoa
  • 1 quyển sách tiếng Anh

If I had to choose a gift for my younger sister, I would choose a dress. First, my sister loves fashion and enjoys trying different styles, so a dress would be something she could use often, especially when going out or attending events. It also shows that I pay attention to her tastes and personality, which makes the gift more meaningful.

I wouldn’t choose flowers because they only look nice for a few days and then fade quickly, so she cannot keep them for long. As for an English book, although it’s useful, she already has many at home and might not be very excited about receiving another one. That’s why a dress is the best choice for her.

  1. Đồ quyên góp cho trẻ em nghèo
  • Quần áo cũ
  • Bút vở
  • 1 khoản tiền

For donating to poor children, I would choose school supplies like notebooks and pens. These items support their education directly and can be used every day in class. They are also easy to distribute fairly to all children, regardless of age or size.

I wouldn’t pick old clothes because they might not fit every child, and some clothes may already be too worn out. I also wouldn’t choose money, because it can be difficult to manage properly and may not always be used for educational purposes. So school supplies are the most practical and meaningful option.

  1. Your brother has just graduated from university. Here is the upcoming plan for him. Which one you would like to choose for your brother?
  • Go straight to work
  • Study master degree
  • Travelling

If my brother just graduated, I would encourage him to go straight to work. Getting a job early allows him to gain real experience and learn how to apply his knowledge in practical situations. It also helps him become financially independent, which is important at his age.

I wouldn’t suggest studying for a master’s degree right away because it can be expensive and he might not know which major suits him best yet. Travelling is enjoyable, but it doesn’t contribute much to his long-term career development. Therefore, starting to work immediately is the smartest choice.

  1. Chọn 1 nơi học bài
  • At home
  • School library
  • Coffee shop

If I need to choose a place to study, I would choose the school library. It's quiet, well-lit, and has a focused atmosphere that helps me concentrate better. There are also plenty of books, computers, and study zones, which makes it convenient for serious study sessions.

I wouldn’t choose to study at home because I easily get distracted by family members, noise, or even my phone. The coffee shop is not ideal either because it can be noisy and expensive if I stay there for hours. So the library is clearly the best environment for studying.

  1. Chọn 1 trong 3 thứ cho văn phòng
  • A printer
  • A laptop
  • A projector

For the office, I would definitely choose a laptop. A laptop is essential for almost all types of work, from writing reports to joining online meetings. It is portable, powerful, and can replace many other devices.

I wouldn’t choose a printer because not everyone needs to print documents, especially in a digital workplace. A projector is useful for presentations, but it’s only used occasionally. Compared to these, a laptop is much more necessary for daily tasks, so I think it’s the best choice.

  1. Chọn phương tiện nào để advertise cho agency
  • TV
  • Internet
  • Brochure

To advertise for an agency, I would choose the Internet. Online ads can reach a huge number of people quickly and at a low cost. They can also be targeted to specific audiences, which makes them more effective.

I wouldn’t choose TV because TV commercials are extremely expensive, and young people nowadays watch less TV. Brochures are cheaper, but many people throw them away without reading, so they are not very effective. That’s why the Internet is the most modern and efficient method.

  1. Your youth club is planning to invite a person to present for the members, who will you choose?
  • A company’s president
  • A famous singer
  • An excellent student

 If the youth club wants to invite a speaker, I would choose a company’s president. They have valuable experience in leadership, problem-solving, and building a career, which young people can learn from. Their stories can inspire members to work harder and think differently.

I wouldn’t choose a famous singer because although they are entertaining, they may not provide practical knowledge for our future. An excellent student is inspiring too, but their experience is still limited compared to someone who runs a company. So a company president would benefit the club the most.

  1. Làm gì khi rảnh
  • Talk to friends
  • Read books
  • Do exercise

When I have free time, I prefer talking to my friends. It helps me relax, share my feelings, and stay connected with people I care about. Social interaction also reduces stress and improves my mood.

I wouldn’t choose reading books because sometimes I feel too tired to concentrate. Doing exercise is healthy, but it requires more energy and motivation. Talking to friends is simple, enjoyable, and fits well with short breaks. That’s why it’s my favourite activity.

  1. You have bought a new house. What animal would you like to keep?
  • A dog
  • A cat
  • A bird

If I move into a new house, I would choose to keep a dog. Dogs are loyal, friendly, and fun to play with. They also make me feel safer because they can warn me if something unusual happens.

I wouldn’t choose a cat because cats are more independent and sometimes don’t like to interact much. A bird is pretty but requires a cage and can’t play with me like a dog can. So a dog would be the most loving and active companion.

  1. Làm gì khi được nghỉ phép 3 ngày
  • Staying at home
  • Hiking with frineds
  • Travelling abroad

If I had a three-day vacation, I would choose to travel abroad. Even a short trip gives me new experiences, new cultures, and a break from my daily routine. It also helps me recharge and come back to work with a fresh mind.

I wouldn’t stay at home because it can become boring and I might end up wasting time. Hiking with friends is fun but physically tiring, and three days is not enough for a long hiking trip. Travelling abroad feels more exciting and memorable, so I think it’s the best option.

  1. Lựa chọn làm gì vào cuối tuần
  • Đi với bạn bè
  • Đi với gia đình
  • Nghỉ ngơi 1 mình

On weekends, I prefer going out with my friends. It’s a great opportunity to relax, eat good food, and talk about our week. Spending time with friends helps me reduce stress and enjoy life more.

I wouldn’t choose going with family because weekdays already give me some family time. Being alone is relaxing, but sometimes it feels too quiet and unproductive. Hanging out with friends makes my weekend more lively and enjoyable.

  1. Chọn 1 công việc bán thời gian
  • Home tutor
  • Shop asistant
  • Baby sister

If I have to choose a part-time job, I would choose to be a home tutor. The job allows me to help students improve their understanding, and it pays better than many other part-time jobs. It also gives me flexible working hours.

I wouldn’t choose to be a shop assistant because it requires long shifts and can be tiring. Babysitting is meaningful but stressful, especially if the child is very active. So being a home tutor is the most suitable and rewarding option.

  1. Lớp muốn lưu giữ kỷ niệm trước khi tốt nghiệp
  • Làm đồng phục
  • Album ảnh
  • Video

To keep memories before graduation, I would choose to make a photo album. Photos capture real emotions, events, and friendships that we want to remember for many years. We can look at them anytime and share them easily with others.

I wouldn’t choose class uniforms because they don’t show many memories, just one moment. A video is meaningful too, but it takes more time and skills to edit, so not everyone can do it. A photo album is simple but long-lasting, which makes it the best choice.

  1. Gifts for parents’ anniversary
  • A movie ticket
  • Flower
  • Handmade card

For my parents’ anniversary, I would choose to give flowers. Flowers symbolize love and celebration, and they can immediately brighten the atmosphere. My parents always enjoy receiving beautiful bouquets on special days.

I wouldn’t choose a movie ticket because they might not have time to go out. A handmade card is sweet, but it feels a bit too simple for such a meaningful occasion. Flowers are elegant and meaningful, which makes them the best gift.

  1. Chị gái nói dối bạn, nên làm gì?
  • Nói với bố mẹ
  • Tự trao đổi với chị
  • Giữ im lặng

If my sister lied to me, I would talk to her directly. I want to understand why she lied and solve the problem calmly. Communicating honestly helps us strengthen our relationship and avoid bigger misunderstandings.

I wouldn’t tell my parents because it might make the situation worse and cause unnecessary conflict. Staying silent is not good either because it makes me feel uncomfortable. Therefore, discussing it directly with her is the most mature and effective option.

  1.  Your cousin is going to be a freshman in college. What would you recommend he buy?

- A smartphone

- A laptop

- A motorbike

For a cousin entering college, I would recommend buying a laptop. Almost every assignment, project, and presentation requires a computer, so a laptop is essential. It also allows students to study anywhere and access online materials easily.

I wouldn’t choose a smartphone because although it’s useful, it cannot replace a computer for academic work. A motorbike is convenient, but it’s not as important as having a proper study device. So a laptop is clearly the most practical and important item for a new college student.

  1. Part 3
  1. Lợi ích của online courses

To be honest, I have to say that online courses should bring some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that that online courses are clearly able to help make the learning process more convenient. Students just need to sit at home to participate in lessons. They can study anywhere and anytime. Besides, They can even review records multiple times. Thanks to this, I think students will be more proactive in learning. The second thing I want to say is that online courses help many students save a lot of money. Because they can study at home, they do not have to pay for rent in big cities as well as the cost of living in expensive cities. The last thing I want to say is that teachers also have many benefits when teaching online. They can open more classes and they can teach more students than when they teach offline. Moreover, they can organize online classes with a scale of even up to a hundred people, which is very difficult for them when organizing such offline classes.

  1. A great teacher can change a student’s life?

To be honest, I have to say that I totally agree with the statement that A great teach can change a student’s life. The first thing I want to say is that students often admire their teachers and sometimes many students consider teachers as role models for them to follow. They even want to follow the knowledge and advice their teachers give. This can be a direction for students' future. The second thing I want to say is that a good teacher also knows how to correct students' bad habits. Thanks to their love and devotion, they will show their students what is right and can help their students quit current bad habits such as smoking or violence. This helps students avoid becoming criminals in the future.

  1. Lợi ích của việc đi du lịch bằng máy bay?

VSTEP SPEAKING – Lợi ích của việc đi máy bay             VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that traveling by plane will bring some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that this type of transport is the fastest way to travel long distances. If we want to go on business or travel abroad, we will have to spend many days traveling by conventional means such as cars, trains or ships. Traveling by plane is much faster. Even in just a few hours we can travel thousands of kilometers. The second thing I want to say is that this type of vehicle is safe. It is true that the number of airplane accidents is much lower than accidents caused by cars or trains. The death rate from flying is also the lowest compared to other types of transportation. The last thing I want to say is that traveling by plane is cheaper than other means of transportation. Obviously, when comparing the cost to travel the same distance, it is clear that the plane will be a more economical choice than other types of means.

  1. Lợi ích của cooking at home                             VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that cooking at home will bring some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that this habit can help us save costs. It is true that eating in restaurants sometimes costs an arm and a leg. We can buy cheap ingredients to prepare our meals. Besides, we also do not lose money on taxes or tips for service staff like when we eat at a restaurant. The second thing I want to say is that cooking at home is an effective way for us to relax. After tiring working hours, we can go into the kitchen and get rid of all the pressure at work. The last thing I want to say is that cooking at home can strengthen the connection between family members. When people are together, cooking and enjoying meals, they will talk more, thereby understanding each other better.

  1. How to stay healthy: having good diets, doing exercise, relaxing and being happy, your idea

Follow up questions:

  • Do you think people today care about their health more than they did in the past? Why? Why not?
  • Do you think happy people are healthier than angry or stressed people? Why? Why not?
  • Could you recommend some kinds of exercise that are good for health?

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that there are many ways to stay healthy. The first thing I want to say is that we need good diets. When we choose a healthy diet, we will avoid dangerous diseases such as obesity or heart disease. Therefore, our quality of life will be better. The second thing I want to say is that we need to exercise regularly. Exercise helps us reduce stress in life, helping us avoid negative thoughts. Besides, regular exercise helps us improve our shape. This helps us be more confident. The third secret to help us stay healthy is relaxing and being happy. We need to listen to our bodies. Occasionally you need to reward yourself with moments of rest such as traveling or participating in recreational activities to restore energy. The last thing I want to say is that we should build good relationships with family members. They are the most important people in our lives, and connecting with them helps us love life more and be happier.

- I completely agree with the view that people today care more about health than they did in the past. Nowadays, the quality of life is better, people prioritize the quality of life more, and of course the thing they prioritize most is health to enjoy life.

- I think happy people will always be healthier than stressed people. Happy people will have a positive attitude towards every problem that occurs in their life and health. It is true that happy people always keeps their spirits in a good state for their bodies.

- To be honest I have to say that running and swimming are the best ways to have good health. These two sports help us improve cardiovascular health, avoid obesity and relieve stress after tiring working hours.

  1. Lợi ích của fast food: save time, save money, good taste, your opinion.

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that fast food will bring some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that fast food helps us save time. Instead of spending hours in the kitchen preparing meals at home, we can easily go to a fast food restaurant, choose our favorite meal and enjoy it in just a few minutes. The second thing I want to say is that using fast food is a good way for us to save money. The cost of buying ingredients and preparing meals at home is often expensive because we do not know how to optimize costs. Usually when we cook at home, we don't know how to control the right amount of food, so we often leave leftovers. This causes a waste of money. On the contrary, fast food restaurants calculate very accurately the right amount of food for each person, so the price of fast food is very cheap. The third thing I want to say is that fast food is delicious. It is true that fast food companies have conducted many surveys and research to answer people's taste needs, so their products are mostly delicious to attract more customers. The last thing I want to say is that fast food is convenient for people who don't know how to cook, especially children. Sometimes when parents are busy with work and cannot cook for their children, fast food is the best option for the children to have a full meal.

  1. Ways to reduce the consumption of fast food

Follow up questions:

  • Why people choose to eat fast food?
  • People switch from main meals to fast food. Is it good or bad?
  • Should government put taxation on fast food? Why?

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that there are some ways to reduce the consumption of fast food. The first thing I want to say is that the government should impose high taxes on fast food companies. It is true that when high taxes are imposed, fast food companies will have to increase product prices, so fast food consumption will decrease. The second thing I want to say is that the government should take propaganda measures on social media about the harmful effects of fast food. Diseases related to fast food such as obesity or diabetes need to be clearly and publicly propagated so that everyone is aware. The last thing I want to add is that we should have policies to ban fast food advertisements. Obviously, when people do not see images of fast food in their lives, they will eat other healthier foods.

-   I think fast food will bring some benefits that make people choose it. Firstly, fast food helps people save time. Instead of spending hours cooking for themselves, people can go to a fast food restaurant and choose their own meal in just a few minutes. Secondly, fast food is delicious and convenient. Finally, I think fast food is cheap. The cost of buying ingredients and cooking at home is sometimes many times more expensive than the cost of buying fast food.

-   I think this is a bad habit. It is clear that fast food is not good for health as it can cause many dangerous diseases such as obesity or diabetes. Therefore, we need to prepare our own healthy meals rather than relying on fast food.

-   In my opinion, I completely agree with the policy that the government should impose high taxes on fast food for the following reasons. Fast food is harmful to health. The imposition of high taxes causes the price of fast food to increase. Therefore, people will not choose this type of food anymore. Besides, imposing taxes on this type of food will create a large source of revenue for the government, thereby increasing the national budget.

  1. Lợi ích khi làm việc một mình              VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that working alone brings some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that this habit helps us focus maximally on work. It is true that when working in groups, we need to pay attention to the opinions of others. Sometimes we cannot decide for ourselves what we want to do, but we always have to share our opinions and consult with other team members. The second thing I want to say is that working alone saves time. When working in groups, every issue needs the approval of all team members, so meetings or discussions are regularly held. This wastes time and can affect the progress of work. The last thing I want to say is that the habit of working alone can help people become more independent. Besides, thanks to this workng habit, people tend to solve problems on their own without having to ask for help from others regarding all problems in life.

  1. Hạn chế của việc ở chung cư: Không gian ít, Không thân thiết với hàng xóm, không nuôi pet được                  -                       VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that living in an apartment has some limitations. The first thing I want to say is that we don't have much space when living in an apartment. Because so many people live in the same building, people hardly have a private place to relax or entertain. The second thing I want to say is that living in an apartment is a cause of lack of connection with neighbors. People who live in apartments are mostly young people and they often live in isolation, rarely interacting with people next to them. In addition, apartments also rarely have common community areas, so people have less opportunity to get to know and understand each other better. The last thing I want to say about a big drawback of living in an apartment is that we won't be able to keep pets. Most apartment buildings prohibit pets from appearing in common spaces such as elevators or playgrounds due to hygiene or noise issues. Some apartment buildings even have strict fines for those who let their pets disturb their neighbors. Therefore, it will be a big disadvantage for pet lovers when choosing to live in an apartment.

  1. Lợi ích của việc đi du lịch một mình  VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that traveling alone has some obvious benefits. The first thing I want to say is that we can be proactive in choosing the places we want to visit. It's clear that when traveling with a large group of people, we always have to follow the majority's opinion. Sometimes we have to follow the decisions of the majority and go to places we don't really like. The second thing I want to say is that the habit of traveling alone can help us be more proactive with our time. We can travel whenever we are free without depending on other people's schedules. The last thing I want to say is that traveling alone helps us experience the places we visit. Because we are not distracted by our companions, we can fully immerse ourselves in nature and enjoy the beauty of the places we visit.

  1. Tác hại của smoking.

To be honest I have to say that smoking has some obvious harmful effects. The first thing I want to say is that smoking is the main cause of cancer, especially lung cancer for smokers. There are many toxic substances in cigarette smoke and seriously affect the health of smokers. The dangerous diseases that smoking causes can be a burden for the entire society. The second thing I want to say is that this habit is very expensive. The cost of buying cigarettes every day can be a financial waste for each person. This money should be used for more essential needs such as food or education. The last thing I want to say is that smoking even directly affects non-smokers. When someone stands near smokers, they are still affected severely.

  1. Lợi ích của supermarket so với traditional market

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that supermarkets have some advantages over traditional markets. The first thing I want to say is that supermarkets provide better quality goods and have clear origins. When an item wants to be in a supermarket, it needs to go through strict inspection steps and this reassures buyers. The second thing I want to say is that the prices of items in supermarkets are clearly public. When a customer buys products in the market, they do not know the exact prices of the items. If they do not know how to negotiate prices with the seller, sometimes they can be forced to buy at higher prices. The last thing I want to say is that supermarkets have a more modern image than traditional markets. Traditional markets are mostly organized randomly on the street, even in many places affecting traffic. Meanwhile, supermarkets are arranged in modern buildings, showing neatness and order.


  1. Lợi ích của sử dụng internet trong lớp học

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that using the internet in the classroom has some benefits. The first thing I want to say is that the internet makes teaching more convenient for teachers. Teachers can quickly search and complete lesson plans based on data searched on the internet. Besides, teachers can use the internet to enrich their knowledge, thereby improving the quality of teaching. The second thing I want to say is that the internet is a useful tool for students to improve their awareness and absorb faster. The internet can provide students with pictures and videos related to the lesson, helping them understand the lesson better. The last thing I want to say is that thanks to the internet installed in the classroom, parents can sometimes easily monitor their children. The internet helps parents to contact teachers and their children quickly, so parents can grasp the learning situation of their children such as test results and absences from classes.

  1. Disadvantages of keeping animals in zoo: lack of space, loss survival skill, your ideas.

To be honest I have to say that keeping animals in zoos has some obvious disadvantages. The first thing I want to say is that this action can cause animals to lose their survival skills. When animals are locked in zoos, they cannot have normal activities such as hunting or finding food. This makes it very difficult for them to survive and compete with species living in the wild when released back into the wild. Reality shows that animals that once lived in zoos die quickly after returning to the forest. The second thing I want to say is that keeping animals in zoos causes the animals to lack living space. The size of the cages to keep the animals is very small, which prevents the animals from moving like normal and causes them stress. The last thing I want to say is that keeping animals in zoos is an inhumane act. People give themselves the privilege of keeping animals in captivity, but people need to know that animals also need freedom. We should put ourselves in the situation of animals when they are kept in small, narrow cages every day and our main purpose is for entertainment.

  1. Tác hại của overpopulation

VSTEP SV

To be honest I have to say that population explosion can bring some obvious disadvantages. The first thing I want to say is that this problem can cause serious environmental pollution. As the number of people on this planet grows explosively, the amount of waste also increases. This directly affects the water and air environment. In addition, as more people are born, the number of factories also appears to produce enough for human needs. These factories release waste, pollute the environment and also have a negative impact on the environment. The second thing I want to say is that overpopulation can be the culprit of low living conditions. Because there are too many people, the infrastructure to serve the people's lives in countries is not enough. Therefore, many people will have to live in poor, backward conditions. The last thing I want to say is that this problem can lead to the depletion of natural resources. Due to the large population, countries have to continuously exploit resources to meet the huge demand. This seriously affects the natural resources of that country.

  1. Benefits of visiting foreign countries for students: increase knowledge, have memories, make friends, your ideas

Visiting foreign countries offers many valuable benefits for students. First, it increases their knowledge because they can experience new cultures, languages, and traditions firsthand, which is something they cannot learn fully from textbooks.

Travelling abroad also creates unforgettable memories. Students have the chance to try new food, visit famous places, and do activities they have never done before. Another great benefit is making new friends from different backgrounds, which helps them become more open-minded and confident. In addition, it improves communication skills, especially if students need to speak a foreign language. Personally, I think travelling helps students expand their worldview and prepares them better for life in a global society. That’s why travelling abroad is an excellent opportunity for young people.

  1. Children telling lies

It is quite common for children to tell lies, and understanding the reasons behind this behavior is very important. Sometimes children lie because they are afraid of being punished, so they want to avoid getting into trouble. In other cases, they lie simply to get attention or to impress their friends. Some children also tell lies because they don’t fully understand the difference between imagination and reality.


To deal with this issue, parents should create a safe and supportive environment where children feel comfortable telling the truth. Instead of shouting or punishing immediately, parents should talk calmly and explain why honesty is important. They can also set a good example by being honest themselves. Rewarding children when they tell the truth can also encourage positive behavior.

In general, with patience and guidance, children can learn to be more responsible and honest.
