And Facebook is one of the most popular applications in the world. Although there are some drawbacks to Facebook, I still use this because of its benefits. For me, the biggest benefit of Facebook is the availability of getting knowledge. Facebook's users often post their practical experience, another user can learn something from that post. I was amazed at the information on Facebook. There is so much helpful knowledge to learn. Maybe, you can join a group about the study to find the motivation or share your learning. Besides getting knowledge, contact with somebody is a great effect on Facebook, too. My most obvious perception of it is in the Coronavirus outbreak. At that time, I had to stay at home, but I still connected with my friend on Facebook. What a useful app! Furthermore, you can contact everyone in the world on Facebook. Also, Facebook can help you relax. Call friends, watch films, read the news, etc. are functions Facebook gives you. Facebook still has drawbacks, but with its benefits, you should use this app. -------------------------- Topic3- Talk about the advantages of Information Technology in our lives Information Technology has greatly improved the way we get many advantages.

It's so dangerous but someone still smokes like a chimney. Smoking will be out of control if we do not have suitable solutions to prevent this situation. So today, I will try to persuade a person not to smoke by my arguments. Firstly, smoking has many dangers. If someone uses tobacco for a few years, maybe they will have lots of diseases, like lung cancer, pneumonia, stroke. Furthermore, your central nervous system would be destroyed by nicotine. About eight million people died of lung cancer every year. And it's increasing day by day. So why are you still light on tobacco? Secondly, smoking is not only toxic for the smokers but also it affects their families too. If a father smokes before his children, they could get the illness. It will be worse if that man smokes in public. Do you want to make somebody hurt just because of your habit? And last but not least, I want to tell you that: There are many good habits to do. Stop smoking and think for yourself! You can make your life better. Tobacco, cigarettes, vape, nicotine, let them out of your mind and change your life right now! I know you can, and I sure that you could be the best version of yourself, trust me Stop V-ing: dừng làm gì (dừng hẳn) Stop to V: dừng lại để làm việc gì Remember/forget/regret to V: nhớ/quên/tiếc sẽ phải làm gì (ở hiện tại – tương lai) Remember/forget/regret V-ing: nhớ/quên/tiếc đã làm gì (ở quá khứ) Try to V: cố gắng làm gì Try V-ing: thử làm gì ------------------------------- Topic 5- talk about the charity activities in your school Charity is essential because of its effects on the community. It assists people at times of need in any part of the world, especially those who are the victims of war, natural disaster, orphans, and poverty. Therefore, Charity activities should be established in the school for students. Last month, some provinces of central Vietnam, like Quảng Bình, Huế were affected by the storm and the flood. So, my school decided to set up a charity activity to donate money and useful things. Students have donated funds and gathered many textbooks and clothes for the victims of that natural disease. After that activity, we all felt blessed and joyful. We also organized a charity show to donate money. Each class had to prepare a dance performance or a drama to perform for fundraising. We didn't receive lots of money, but we still felt thankful. Because of these charity activities, We could help someone, who is in a disadvantaged situation. I hope our schools can organize more activities like those. Topic 6- School Violence has been happening more often and more seriously among students. Express your opinion about this. School violence is one of the serious problems nowadays because of harmful effects on forming human-beings characteristics. Sadly, this issue is becoming more and more serious. It happens not only in male but also in females, not only among students but also between students and teachers. According to the definition, school violence could be described to be physical attacks between students or by students on teachers, which could occur on the way to school, at school, or relate to school. This problem includes sexual violence, bullying, fighting, and more And we all know the consequence of school violence. The victims could be increased incidences of depression, anxiety, and suicide. They will feel unsafe, stressed, and lonely all the time. Thus, we are wondering ' what are the reasons for school violence?' Most educators and researchers would agree that this issue begins from a layering of causes, including cyber abuse, media violence, family environments, community, and more. Because of the effects and the reasons for school violence, we should prevent this problem. School relationships must be developed, teachers need to talk with their students to understand them. But the most important factor is the student's awareness themselves, they should know which way is good, which is bad to choose for their life. -------------------------- Topic 7- Talk about a traditional festival in Viet Nam If someone asks me about a traditional festival in Vietnam, I will definitely talk about the Tet holiday, which is also known as the Lunar New Year holiday. It is the oldest and biggest festival in Vietnam. Tet marks the beginning of a new year. Tet is usually celebrated between late January and early February. It mostly goes on for 3 days: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd of January Lunar calendar. Before Tet, people decorate their houses with bonsais, buy new clothes for children, and make traditional food like giò, xôi, bánh chưng. And somebody who works far from home will go back to join for the holiday. Therefore, Tet is an occasion for a family reunion. During Tet, People often go to their relatives' and friends' homes to wish them good luck, success, and health. And also, on this occasion children can get lucky money from their elder, so I think they always look forward to Tet. Besides, some families would go to pagodas or temples to worship the ancestor and wish for a better year. Tet has been becoming an indispensable holiday for thousands of years in Vietnam. Because of Tet, people can express gratefulness to their parents and enjoy happiness when they gather together. I am so thankful because Tet was in exile. ------------------------------------------ Topic 8- Ao Dai, the traditional dress of VietNam, is one of the symbols of VietNam. Talk about this. Every country has its traditional clothes. Ao Dai is known as traditional Vietnamese clothes, especially for women. When one hears about Vietnam, the word “Ao Dai” will most probably be mentioned. Ao Dai had created hundreds of years ago since the Nguyen Dynasty required that both men and women should wear an outfit of pants and gown. Until 1930 Ao Dai took a similar shape to what it is right now. Through time, the shape of the Ao Dai has changed a lot. Nowadays, Ao Dai is a long-sleeved tunic with ankle-length panels at front and back, worn over trousers. It can be designed with colors and symbols such as flowers, nature, and stripes. Unlike the Ao Dai for women, Ao Dai for men did not change much, and it is rarely worn by younger generations. So, it is the reason why Ao Dai is more popular for women. Ao Dai is women's favorite dress in traditional festivities or special occasions. Also, Ao Dai is the symbol of a high school student. Moreover, Being said that Vietnamese Dresses helped to promote Vietnam's image around the world. The role of Ao Dai is so meaningful in Vietnamese culture. It's not just a costume but a glorious culture, an expression of the identity of Vietnam. --------------------------- Topic- What useful things help us combat the Coronavirus at the time of Coronavirus outbreak? ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ----------------------Topic- Natural disasters ( flood,..) ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ------------------------
