a clumsy and lazy student, Nobita. The cat helps him to solve problems arising
from school and his friends including fierce friend Takeshi Gouda, the sneaky

Asia as well, such as China, Japan or Korea. And it is often celebrated on the 15th
day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar with full moon at night. Nowadays, Mid

the year. But not only can children celebrate this day but also adults can, adults
who wish to have a chance to remind their their childhood and feel young
again.During this exciting Autumn festival, making masks and lanterns is probably
one of many activities that take place. A lot of groups of young Vietnamese have

when speaking of Mid-Autumn, we can’t help but to mention the Moon cake. The
round shape of the moon cake signifies completeness and reunion of families.
TOPIC 10 SOURCES OF ENERGY
What should we do to save energy?
Mẫu 1
Nowadays, energy is being run out more and more. We need to save energy
because nobody of us can lives without energy. We have many ways to save
energy in our home. One of those ways is using electricity, water and gas
economically, we should turn off the light in room when we go out or in
unnecessary situations, avoid wasting water, shut the kitchen stove when stop
cooking. Besides, we should use the low light bulbs. We also can use public
transport more often
Mẫu 2
We can save energy by doing some following tips. First of all, we should use
electricity more efficiently and reduce our electricity bill. We need to turn off the
TV when we are not watching, turn off all the lights before going to bed. Besides,
we should not leave the fridge door open in a long time due to wasting of
electricity. Moreover, we should save water by taking showers instead of baths or
turning off the water when you don not use it. The next tip is reducing the use of
fossil fuels like gas, coal, and oil. It is not only saving energy but also protect our
environment. To do this, we can use public transport and avoid using car or
motorbike for short trip. All in all, because our energy is limited we need to reserve
it for the future generations.
TOPIC 11 TRAVELLING IN THE FUTURE
I. What means of transport will people travel in the future? (Phương tiện giao
thông nào sẽ giúp con người di chuyển trong tương lai?)
- It is Solar-energy plane. It looks like a normal plane but it has the solar panel on
the wings. The panel will catch the sun shine and create the electricity for the
plane. It may be a great invention helping to create the energy and protect
environment.
- It is flying car. It’s a kind of driverless car and airplane. It has many benefits.
With its automated system, the car can avoid traffic. It drives at 300 kph. It has
SSS, it’s a sky safety system, it will stop everyone from crashing and it will help
them avoid traffic jam. It has four seats, so your family or friends can join the ride.
- It’s a flying motorbike. It looks like a normal motorbike, but it can fly without
wings, it will use electricity transferred from solar energy. It can travel fast and
work well in bad weather. I think it will be very useful and popular in the future.
- I think in the future, there will be a lot of means of transport that will use eco-
friendly energy. My own future transport will help people to travel faster and safer.
Its name will be eco-friendly ariship. It'll be a public transport. It looks like an
airship but it can transport from 15 to 25 people. It'll use solar power and wind-
power. People can use it in the sky. Everybody can drive it because it'll very easy
to drive. It'll be used the most modern technology. I think my own future transport
will help people a lot in the future.

TOPIC 12 AN OVERCROWDED WORLD
Talk about the problems of overpopulation and offer solution
Overpopulation can lead to :
- Overcrowding and poor quality housing in many large cities.
- too many vehicles cause air pollution and noise
- lack of employment, poverty, people have to live in slums, so they get a lot of
disease
- and overpopulation can create the homeless and hunger
- rising crime rate as poor living conditions
- there is not always enough food and malnutrition, not enough fresh and clean
water, not enough school for children
The Government Should
- provide essential housing and healthcare for people
- Raise an awareness of the problems of overpopulation.
- Carry out population education program/family planning programs.
- Create more jobs by building more factories in rural areas
Gợi ý
Overpopulation is one of the most concerning problems in our society. There are a
number of causes that contribute to overpopulation. First, due to a lack of
educational resources, people do not how to control population. They even do not
know how to use any method of birth control. Next, thanks to the develpment of
science and medicine, most diseases are cured and live expectancy has increased.
Overpopulation has a vast adverse effect on the water. Overpopulation creates
greater demand on the world’s freshwater supplies. As only roughly 1% of the
world’s water is fresh and accessible, this creates a major issue. Moreover,
pollution is likely to increase due to overpopluation. When a number of people on
our planet increases, we have to produce more food and other things for daily life.
This production of material goods leads to an increase in all sorts of pollution. To
solve the alarming problem, people should be aware of family planning. People
should ask themselves if it may be better to limit the number of children they want.
Birth regulation should be enacted to reduce the number of children.

- What is your favorite leisure activity? Why?
- Talk about your favorite leisure activity.
Guidelines:
- In my free time, I often play table tennis/ watch films/ read books,…
- I usually have two - three free hours per day.

useful. My body becomes stronger because playing it is good for my health. It also
helps me relax after a hard day.
- Talk about your favorite leisure activity. You have to answer these following
question:
+ Describe the leisure activity.
+ Say who do you do this activity with.
+ Share your feeling about the activity.
Example: Reading book is one of my leisure activities. It is both interesting and
useful. I can get knowledge of all areas that I need and relax after school.
Whenever I have free time, I read books. I like many kinds of book such as novels,
comic stories and science books. I really fancy reading science books which my

2. Talk about the life in the countryside
- Tell some changes in the countryside.
- What the positive sides of the countryside are.
- What the negative sides of the countryside are.
- You want to live in the countryside or not. Tell the reasons.
Guidelines:
- I live in the Bat Trang village/ suburb,…
- I like living in the countryside. I often visit my grandmother. It is interesting to
live there because there are so much space. We can run around the vast field and
shout out loud without disturbing anybody. We can swim in the river, go fishing or
collect vegetables in the afternoon or in the summer.
- The first thing I like about the countryside is the relaxed pace of life. I often go
there for some peace and quietness. I sleep well when I stay in the countryside.
Another thing is the beautiful landscapes as well as peaceful hills and forests. I
love admiring them. This makes me feel less stressed. I often take a lot of pictures
of rural landscapes. However, you don’t have easy access to shops. When you
want to buy something, it takes a lot of time because shops are far away. Besides,
there’s almost nothing to do at night. No nightclubs, no bars and no amusement
parks.
- In my opinion, life in the countryside has many advantages. Firstly, village
people are more friendly than city folks. Village people build their personal
relationship with all people and often take care of each other. Secondly, village
people live much nearer to the nature and breathe in the fresh air, as well as eat
fresh foods, vegetables, fruits collected directly from the garden. Finally, there are
lots of traditional activities that they can do in the countryside such as fishing,
swimming in the river or kite-flying. For these reasons, I prefer living in the
countryside.
- My hometown has changed a lot. Firstly, the local people have different
appearance with fashionable clothes. Secondly, many of them now have cell
phones and motorbikes or even cars. They are living in modern brick houses.
Besides, the Internet is very popular among the residents and they use it for
learning, making new friends and playing games. They feel really pleased and
satisfied about these changes.
- Living in the country has many benefits; however, it has both the advantages and
the disadvantages.
Now we will talk about the advantages. Firstly, you have a healthy life. There are
no dust, no smoke and no traffic jam. The air is fresh. The food is clean because
people collect them from the garden. Secondly, living the countryside is peaceful.
It is very quiet to relax after working or there are many beautiful wide fields and
natural scenery. Finally, there are no separations in the countryside. Neighbors are
really best friends. They will help you pleasantly if you have trouble. Each
problem has its solution and your neighbors will share it for you.
According to disadvantages, it has poor quality, facilities and employment .One of
the drawbacks of living in the country is poor quality of education in schools there.
Country schools usually do not have good facilities like for example gyms or
computer rooms. Another bad side of country life is lack of entertainment. There
are no things to do at night: no cinemas, no bar and no amusement park. Last but
not least, the problem with finding a job is important. There are no companies or
factories so the rural people don't have a good job.

3. Talk about your town or city

- What is your town/ city like?
- What are the places of interest in your town/ city?

lunch together on the first day on Tet. We have followed this for three generations.
We have the custom of visiting our grandparents at the weekend.
-In my country, during Tet holiday, we shouldn’t sweep the floor on the first day of
Tet. We have to respect old people and children should take things from adults
with both hands and greet guests when they come to our house.
Gợi ý 1
In my family, there are many customs and traditions passed down from old
generation to new generation. First, all members of my family must use bowls and

Gợi ý 2
Traditional Vietnamese customs and traditions have been formed time to time for
thousands of years. This creates a long-lasting culture.
It is important to worship in the religious spiritual life of Vietnamese, especially in
the countryside. Vietnamese believe that the soul of a dead person, even if dead for
many generations, still rests along with their descendants on earth. Traditionally,
ancestor altar is located in the biggest room of a house with the display of
specialized offerings. During the last days before Tet, all family members visit
their ancestors’ graves; they clean and decorate the graves, in the same manner that
the livings clean and decorate their houses to welcome the New Year.

and the boats are all beautifully decorated. The festival lasts for two days at the full
moon of the first lunar month. This is a festival to worship the whale and pray for
the good fortune of the fishermen in Quang Nam. The festival includes activities
like the twirling the basket, boat races, swings, and football competitions, plus
special dancing and singing performances including ‘tuong’, ‘ho khoan’ singing
and ‘ba trao’ singing.
Example 2: I like the Hung King Temple festivals a lot. It is held in Phu Tho
province from the 8th to 11th of the third lunar month every year. It commemorates
and worships the Hung Kings who are the founders and also the first emperors of
the nation. It’s impressive because there is a procession from the foot of Nghia
Linh mountain to the High Temple on the top of the mountain. While you are
there, you can attend a ceremony of offering incense and specialities to the Hung
Kings. Moreover, there are also some great activities such as bamboo swings, lion
dances, wrestling and Xoan singing performances. I like this festival because it
makes me love our ancestors. I also like it because there are a lot of great activities.
Example 3: Tet is one of the most important festival in Viet Nam. It’s held every
year at the end of January or early February. Some weeks before Tet, Vietnamese
clean their houses and paint their wall. They buy peach blossoms. Kumquat,
flowers to decorate their houses. New clothes are bought on the occasion. One or
two days before Tet, people make Chung cake - the traditional food, sticky rice,
spring rolls and other special food. On the New Year, every family cook a special
meals and prepare five fruit tray to worship their ancestors to pray for a better year.
On the first day of New Year, people go out. Children receive lucky money

family gather to chat or have meals together.

Secondly, we shouldn’t throw trash onto the water to keep water cleaner put
garbage bins around the school yard to prevent lazy students from throwing trash

beautiful clothes. The items I usually buy are clothes, shoes and makeup. However,
sometimes I go shopping to buy back everyday items such as personal items or
food. I will try to make the future earn more money to satisfy my passion for
shopping.

I disagree with the idea that robots will only bring benefits to people in the future.
Robots will also have some negative effects. Firstly, they will be very expensive
and we will spend too much money buying and fixing them. Secondly, robots in
factories will be able to do everything the workers do, so robots will make them
jobless. Thirdly, robots in our homes will do all the housework for us, so we will
become lazy and inactive. In short, robots will do many things for us, but they may
not improve the quality of our lives.
Topic 4: Choose a way of communication and talk about its advantages and
disadvantages
I think there are both advantages and disadvantages of online calls. Online
communication makes life more accessible because it can help people learn and
develop. It is also worth admitting that online communication is helpful because it
contributes to the fact that ordinary people have access to information that they did
not previously know. In addition to that, online communication has also
participated in enriching the research field. Irrespective of the information above, it
is impossible to ignore the fact that online communication can imply some
drawbacks. The possible disadvantages include the “lack of security, Internet
addiction, information overload, and loss of social contacts”.
Topic 12: Talk about a shopping centre, a supermarket, or an open-air
market in your area.
GO Supermarket
Located in Phu My town, about 10 kilometres from Hung Vuong secondary
school.
We can get there by any vehicles (bike, motorbike, car, bus, ...)
Opening hours: Everyday 8:00 - 22:00
We go GO Supermarket to buy goods with lower prices.
I like GO Supermarket because it has a wide range of products to choose from.
I don't like GO Supermarket because it always crowded.
Topic 13: Talk about a natural disaster or one you know
Five days of heavy rain caused a serious flood in a village in Phu Yen. The flood
happened last week. Many houses were flooded, two villagers died, and five others
were missing. Rescue workers looked for the missing people, and volunteers gave
food and drinks to the victims.
