A BAD HABIT
CHỦ ĐỀ NÀY YÊU CẦU NGƯỜI NÓI PHẢI PHÁT HUY SỞ TRƯỜNG VỀ VĂN KỂ THEO LỐI NATURAL STYLE
TRONG BÀI NÀY, MÌNH SẼ CHỌN
NGOÁY MŨI: TO PICK MY NOSE
DỈ MŨI: BOOGERS
XÌ MŨI: TO BLOW MY NOSE
WELL, I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT ONE HABIT SHARED BY MANY PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD: PICKING ONE'S NOSE. HONESTLY, I DID LIKE PICKING MY NOSE TOO MUCH WHEN I WAS A PRIMARY STUDENT.
AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER, I STARTED DOING SO QUITE UNCONSCIOUSLY, MAINLY BECAUSE I COULD NOT STAND MY NOSE BEING FILLED WITH BOOGERS. EVERYONE AROUND ME BEGAN TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS TERRIBLE HABIT, SAYING THAT IT REALLY ANNOYED THEM AND IT WAS A SIGN OF IMPOLITENESS, HOWEVER I JUST FAILED TO GET RID OF IT EVERY TIME I TRIED. FINALLY, MY MOTHER CAME UP WITH AN IDEA, WHICH WAS ASKING ME TO TAKE NAPKINS ALONG. ALL WHAT I HAD TO DO THEN WAS BLOW MY NOSE WITH NAPKINS.
TO BE FRANK, WITHOUT MY MOTHER'S ADVICE, I COULD NEVER HAVE GIVEN UP THAT HABITUAL ACTION. 2 YEARS AGO, MY TWO CHILDREN DEVELOPED THE SAME HABIT, AND YOU KNOW WHAT, MY MOTHER'S SOLUTION WORKED FOR THEM AGAIN.

LIKE OR DISLIKE
A. PUBLIC TRANSPORT: WHAT DO YOU DISLIKE ABOUT PUBLIC TRANSPORT
SỬ DỤNG HATE VÀ CANNOT STAND

B. WHAT DO DISLIKE ABOUT TRAVELING OVERSEAS
WELL, I CANNOT STAND PEOPLE TALKING TOO FAST, ESPECIALLY IN ENGLISH ALTHOUGH I HAVE STUDIED THIS LANGUAGE FOR ALMOST 5 YEARS. FURTHERMORE, WHAT ANNOYS ME MOST IS THE TASTE OF EXOTIC FOOD FROM OTHER COUNTRIES.

SPEAKING: DESCRIBE A PLACE YOU WOULD LIKE TO VISIT IN THE NEAR FUTURE
WELL, I AM CURRENTLY LIVING IN A SMALL AND LESS AFFLUENT
COUNTRY, THEREFORE, TRAVELLING ABROAD CAN BE SEEN AS A LUXURIOUS HOBBY. HOWEVER
IF I HAVE A CHANCE TO GO OVERSEAS, I WILL LIKELY OPT FOR AMERICA.
LET’S MOVE ONTO THE SOURCE OF MY INFORMATION ON THE USA, IN
FACT, I GOT ACCESS TO THE DATA ON THIS COUNTRY WHEN I WAS A SMALL CHILD. WHEN I
HAVE GROWN UP AND KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH, I MAINLY SEARCH THE NEWS AND
CULTURE OF AMERICA ON MAGAZINES, NEWSPAPERS AND INTERNET.
THROUGH MASS MEDIA, I
HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE USA IS WHERE MANY SMASHES WERE PRODUCED. IN FACT, BUT
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HOLYWOOD, WE COULD NEVER HAVE SEEN MANY OVERWHELMING
SCENES IN CARIBBEAN PIRATES OR SPIDERMAN. MOREOVER, WHEN TRAVELLING TO AMERICA,
IT WILL BE A PITY IF YOU MISS VISITING GOLDEN BRIDGE. THE VIEW OF BREAKING DAWN
REFLECTED TO THE WATER IS ABSOLUTEL Y AWESOME.
HOAC
FROM MANY PEOPLE'S VIEW, AMERICA IS BEST FEATURED
THROUGH THE IMAGES OF HOLYWOOD OR GOLDEN BRIDGE, WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE BREAKING
DAWN OR THE SUNSET. NEVERTHELESS, I AM MOST ATTRACTED BY THE TIME SQUARE, WHERE
I CAN SEE MANY VISITORS/INTERNATIONAL TOURISTS FEEDING PIGEONS ON A PATIO.
HONESTLY SPEAKING, THE SCENE ALWAYS BRINGS ME A SENSE OF PEACE.
FINALLY, IF THERE IS TIME, I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT THE
FACT THAT DESPITE THE SUBSTANTIAL TRAVELLING EXPENSE, I DO BELIEVE THAT ONE
DAY, I CAN GRAB AN OPPORTUNITY TO PAY AMERICA A VISIT.
POVERTY OR WEALTH
Children who are brought up in families that do not have large amounts of money are better prepared to deal with the problems of adult life than children brought up by wealthy parents. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
In contemporary society, where the gap between the rich and the poor is inevitable, it is believed that children who were born into impoverished families are able to solve problems that they encounter later in their adulthood than those living in wealth. Personally, I totally agree with the statement given for several reasons. Initially, there is no doubt that poor children are more flexible in dealing with their own hardships. In fact, they already get used to manage their own life without sufficient financial conditions. Without money, these children often have to write on scrap paper as a replacement for colorful notebooks which often belong to those enjoying an absolutely comfortable lifestyle. Similarly, they may be seen bring leftover of the previous night’s dinner to school in order that their parents do not have to worry much about their lunch and refreshments. Obviously, when they have grown up, they not only know how to economically manage their life, but also bravely confront their financial difficulties.
Besides, I would also argue that as needy children have to fight to address their own problems, they are apparently more independent in the decision-making process than those having wealthy parents. For children suffering from poverty, waiting for their parents’ attention to their concerns is hopeless since they are well aware that their top priority is earning money. Therefore, when being bullied at school, for example, they tend to come up with a variety of solutions and select the best one based on their own consideration. From my own point of view, I do assume that this definitely helps them become more decisive and avoid being heavily dependent on others’ help in later life.
In conclusion, from all of the arguments mentioned above, I am strongly convinced that wealthy children can never be compared with those living in poverty in dealing with the problems of adult life as the latter are better prepared with a greater sense of independence and flexibility.

Energy consumption vs production test builder 2
The
line graph reveals striking differences between consumed energy quantities and the
amount of energy produced from 1950 and 2000 and also presents some forecasted
figures for the 2000-2025 period.
It
is initially noticed that the gap between us consumption and production becomes
increasingly dramatic although both experience considerable growth. More specifically,
between 1950 and 1975, the gap between the quantities of energy consumed and
produced was minimal with a twofold increase seen in both (from approximately
25 to over 50).
However,
while a rising amount of energy was consumed between 1975 and 2000 (from 60 to
95), the figure for energy produced fluctuated around 60. Hence, in this
period, energy had to be imported to bridge the widened gap. The discrepancy
between energy consumption and production is predicted to become far more
drastic during the 2000-2025 period. With a double rise from 75 to roughly 150
in the demand, the increase from 65 to 85 in the supply is supposed to fail to
meet the consumers’ need.
In
summary, it is possibly realized that energy production in America is not
keeping up with consumption based on both past and projected figures.

tea process
The pictures illustrate how tea is
grown in an 8 step process and how a cup of tea is made through 10 steps
At the first stage in the process,
tea is grown in india and china, where tea seeds are spread on farmland. Once tea
plants grow under sunshine, farmers pick tea leaves manually and put them into
baskets. Tea leaves are then dried in the sunlight. After that, they are boxed
and transported/dispatched to supermarkets.
To prepare a cup of tea, customers
have to purchase tea boxes from stores and supermarkets. At home, water is
boiled and a tea bag is put into a cup. Next, the boiling water is poured into
the cup. The tea is left for 2 minutes and sugar and/or milk is added. Finally,
the tea is served hot.
