SPEAKING PART 1
1. Please tell me about your family
I’m so happy when I can talk about my family. There are five people in my family:
my parents, two younger sisters, and me. My parents are farmers. They are so nice
and humorous. My sisters are students who study at secondary school. And I’m a
second-student at National economics university. I love my family very much and
like to spend time with them.
2. Please tell me about yourself
I would like to introduce myself. My full name is Nguyen Hong Ngoc. I'm a
senior at National Economics University. My major is Accounting. I’m very
friendly and nice. In my free time, I like hanging out with my friend. We go out to
eat, go to the cinema, go shopping or go to concert music and so on. In the future, I
want to be an auditor because it helps to build a solid ground about accounting,
finance and improve my soft skills.
3. Tell me about your hometown/ Tell me about a famous place in your
country?
My hometown is Hanoi, which is the capital city of Vietnam. It is located in the
north of Vietnam. Hanoi is well-known for many tourist attractions such as West
Lake or Sword Lake. It also has so many delicious local cuisines, but the thing that
I like the most is Pho. Hanoi’s people are very friendly and open-minded.
4. Tell me the best way to travel around your country?
I’d say that the best way to travel in Vietnam is to go by motorbikes because it is
really convenient. The buses are a bit cheaper, but I don’t think that is such a
comfortable way to travel. Also, there is usually traffic congestion at rush hours,
especially in big cities like Hanoi or HCM City. Therefore, if you go by bus, you
may be stuck on the streets for hours. So then, motorbikes are really the best
option, and of course, they give you the most freedom when you are traveling.
5. Tell me about your friend(s)/ a member in your family
Most of my friends are about the same age as me because we met at high school.
Therefore, I can freely share my ideas, feelings, and thoughts with them. I have
got one or two friends who are older or younger that I met through work. I tend to
meet up with my friends at weekends and whenever we meet, we enjoy a lot of
things together such as shopping and watching movies at the theater.
6. What is the weather like today?/What is your favorite season?
Today the autumn weather is very wonderful with light wind and warm sunlight.
The temperature is about 22 degrees. I can go hang out with my friend and we can
take a beautiful photograph. I really love this weather, it makes me feel happy and
helps me let my hair down after a hard working-day.
7. Please tell me about one of your good memories
I have some great memories to share but the one I would like to describe is the day
when my parents gifted me a doll. I was just 12 years old when I got this beautiful
Barbie doll. I was so ecstatic because that doll was my dream, it was like a dream
come true. After receiving that sweet gift, I first went to see all of my friends to tell
them about it. Every day I used to wake up with my Barbie doll and dress it up
with new clothes.
8. What do you like doing with your friends?/ What do you like doing in your
free time?/ What did you do last night/on the weekend?
In my free time, I would like to spend my time with my friends. We usually go
out to eat, go shopping, watch movies or sometimes go to a music concert.
However, I’m very keen on hanging out with my friends at a local coffee shop. We
enjoy some drinks like coffee or milk tea and share some exciting news with each
other.
Last night (on the weekend), I went out with my friends. We went to the chinese
restaurant in the city center to have a meal. After that, we went to the mall together
for shopping and entertainment. My friends are really kind and open-minded.
Hanging out with them makes me happy and lets my hair down after a hard-
working day. I love my friends very much.
9. Please tell me about your first school?
To the best of my recollection, my school was located right in the middle of my
hometown. That’s why it only took me about 10 minutes to walk to school every
single day. Back in the days when I was still studying at primary school, this
school had always been my dream school because it looked incredibly beautiful.
All the walls were painted in multiple bright colors, which really made it stand out
from the surrounding buildings.
10. Describe the room you are in?
I am in a quite big room which is about 40 square meters with white walls. This
room is equipped with 50 desks, 4 fans and 2 conditioners. Me and other
candidates are taking our exam on the computers. There are 3 supervisors ( giám
thị ) who will help us in case something goes wrong. The atmosphere in this room
is quite stressful.
