you like drawing? 1.1 → Yes, I have taken a keen interest in drawing since I was a kid, and at one point I even attended an art class for beginners These days though, I rarely draw due to a lack of time, however, I still spend some time occasionally on the weekend to visit an art gallery in the city • take an interest in / ˈteɪkən ən ˈɪntrəst ɪn /: hứng thú với Ex: I wish John would take an interest in his schoolwork • spend time doing sth / spend ˈtaɪm ˈduːɪŋ ˈsʌmθɪŋ / : dành thời gian cho hoạt động Ex: On the weekends I usually spend my time with my family and friends Do you like to go to the gallery? → Absolutely yes I’m a big fan of fine art, so I often spend time on the weekends visiting different galleries and exhibitions Aesthetic quality can vary from different art styles, so I enjoy both historical-themed masterpieces in local galleries and modern artwork in certain art showcases • Aesthetic quality / iːsˈθetɪk ˈkwɒlɪti /: giá trị nghệ thuật Ex: Aesthetic quality is considered one of the most significant factors when judging artwork • Historical-themed / hɪˈstɒrɪkl̩ ðəmd /: mang chủ đề lịch sử Ex: Historical-themed artworks appear to be quite boring to some people Do you want to learn more about art? → Though I don’t see myself as being gifted, I’d still like to attend art classes to fulfill my passion for painting Personally speaking, learning to paint or draw not only helps to promote creativity but also significantly reduces my stress levels Did you learn how to draw when you were a kid? → Yes, I enrolled in my first art class when I was years old My old teacher used to speak highly of my random scribbles, though I’ve never seen myself as being very artsy • gifted (adj) /ˈɡɪf.tɪd/: có khiếu Ex: She is a gifted dancer who won numerous awards •

It changes by the day, we discuss anything and everything that is relevant to our lives Luckily, my circle of friends is quite diverse, so this means that there is always something new or interesting on the table in terms of discussion • Diverse /daɪˈvɜːs/ (a): Đa dạng Ex: People from diverse cultures were invited to the event • broaden one’s horizons : Mở mang hiểu biết This also helps us all broaden our horizons, as it is not Ex: Travelling helps me broaden my horizons abnormal in anyway to need to consider things from • Abnormal /ỉbˈnɔːml/ (a): Khơng bình thường varying perspective Ex: They thought his behaviour was abnormal Do you think you can be friends with strangers? I think that by definition, no As far as I understand the word, to be friends with a person you need to actually know them While you can certainly be “friendly” with a stranger, that is very different from being actual friends How should you treat a stranger? You should be friendly with strangers Even though you don’t know them yet, there is a chance that they could become your friend given time There is an old saying along • mentality /menˈtỉləti/(n): Trí lực, tư duy, tâm lí Ex: I can’t understand the mentality of people who are unkind to their pets the lines of “all strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet” While this won’t be true in every case, it is a mentality that I choose to view the world with This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 357 | ZIM Dress IELTS Speaking Part 2.95 Describe a person who likes to dress fashionably You should say: • Who he/she is • What job he/she does • What kind of clothes he/she wears And explain why he/she likes fashion Idea Context (Bối cảnh) • Bạn tơi, tên Tuấn • Là người ăn mặc thời trang, đơi lúc khó hiểu • Tôn trọng bạn, lo lắng cách xài tiền Content (Nội dung) bạn • Từng chuộng phong cách US, chuyển qua Hàn Quốc • Tự hỏi anh theo đuổi phong cách Conclusion (Kết luận) Take note Context My friend - Tuan Fashionable, some of the fashion choices are questionable My friend Content Respect his decision, also worry about his bad spending habits Used to love the styles from the U.S, now Korea Conclusion Wonder where will be next This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 358 | ZIM CONTEXT Answer A person I know that is concerned with fashion is my friend Minh Khó hiểu, đáng nghi Ex: The conclusions that they come to Of all of my friends he is the only one who bothers to follow fashion and are highly questionable put his money into it While he definitely has the best looking clothes in silly /ˈsɪli/ (a): ngớ ngẩn our class, some of the fashion choices are questionable (1) Sometimes we get to tell him “Hey Tuan, that’s a really silly (2) hat you’ve got there”, but he is never bothered by it and insists “this is what is cool wherever CONTENT Questionable /ˈkwestʃənəbl/ (a): these days.” While I totally respect his decision to buy clothes that he thinks are fashionable, I sometimes worry about him and his bad spending habits There have definitely been a few occasions in which our friend group has had to buy him lunch all week at school because that weekend he decided to buy the latest sneakers Hopefully he learns to Ex: It would have been silly to pretend that I wasn’t upset balance /ˈbæləns/(n): Cân Ex: Tourists often disturb the delicate balance of nature on the island trendy /ˈtrendi/ (a): hợp thời trang Ex: People are buying them just to be trendy find a fair balance (3) between being trendy (4) and being able to sustain a budget He used to be really into the styles coming out of the U.S., and CONCLUSION I guess he still is to an extent, but a lot of his focus has shifted to South Korea recently, as it has become a world power in terms of world culture I wonder where will be next?

Why? I think that it is already well on the way to replacing it, but I don’t think that it will ever replace it entirely There is something about going to a store and browsing the shelves that will entice people to buy things that they didn’t need, and in a world governed by economics, that makes it very unlikely that brick-and-mortar stores will ever completely disappear Are you a person who likes to follow fashion? I have absolutely no concern for fashion While I like to dress well, I determine that wholly for myself and not listen to brands or designers, as I could not care less of their opinions The only people other than myself who I would listen to in terms of fashion would be my close friend circle, as I think that they have my best interests at heart Are older people as fashionable as young people? Why? I think that as people get older, they tend to care less about fashion Why should they care? Trends seem to be young person problems, at least in my experience My grandfather certainly doesn’t care about fashion, and I don’t blame him Are women more fashionable than men? Why? I think women are culturally expected to care more about fashion, and so tend to so because of that expectation It is obvious, to me at least, that there would be no biological reason or something like that which would cause women to be inherently more fashionable, it is just an artifact of our cultures • entice /ɪnˈtaɪs/ (v): Dụ dỗ, thuyết phục Ex: The bargain prices are expected to entice customers away from other stores • brick-and-mortar stores: các cửa hàng truyền thống nơi mà khách hàng có thể đến trực tiếp mua sản phẩm, trái ngược với mua hàng online Ex: Shopping online can be more convenient than going shopping at brick-and-mortar stores • friend circle /frɛnd ˈsɜːkl/: Vòng bạn bè Ex: The presence of our self, our family, and mainly our friend circle affects us the most in our present conditions • wholly (adv): mợt cách hoàn toàn Ex: I don’t think his explanation is wholly wrong • Trend /trend/ (n): Xu hướng Ex: There is a growing trend towards later retirement • blame /bleɪm/(v): đổ lỗi, trách Ex: She doesn’t blame anyone for her father’s death • biological /ˌbaɪəˈlɒdʒɪkl/(a): Thuộc sinh học Ex: There are many biological factors for that • inherently /ɪnˈherəntli/ (adv): Vốn dĩ Ex: the work is inherently dangerous • artifact /ˈɑːtɪfækt/ (n): Tạo tác Ex: The museum has artifacts dating back to prehistoric times This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 360 | ZIM An important thing IELTS Speaking Part 2.96 Describe an important thing that you learned (not at school or in college) You should say: • When did you learn it? • How did you learn it? • Why did you think it was important to learn it? And how you felt when you learnt it? Idea Context (Bối cảnh) • Khi xe máy phát tiếng lạ • Lúc trước thường vào quán cà phê xe sửa • Nay đem xe sửa, lại để quan sát Content (Nội dung) • Biết nguyên nhân vấn đề • Biết nguyên nhân chưa tự tin để tự sửa Conclusion (Kết luận) Take note Context When my motorbike started making odd sounds Used to walk to a nearby cafe while the repairs are being taken care of This day, I did not Motorbike issues Content Conclusion Knew me the issue and how to fix it Not confident enough to fix it myself next time This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 361 | ZIM CONTEXT Answer Something that I learned that I didn’t learn in an educational environment was just recently, when my motorbike started making odd sounds I am not particularly mechanically inclined, so the cause of the clunking noises were a total mystery to me One morning this week I did not have classes in the morning, and so this allowed me some time to go and get my bike repaired Normally when getting repairs done, CONTENT I have a lot of other work that I can walk to a nearby cafe and work on while the repairs are being taken care of This day, I did not, I was free of other obligations (1) and so I determined to try and learn about Obligation /ˌɒblɪˈɡeɪʃn/(n): Nghĩa vụ, nhiệm vụ Ex: You are under no obligation to buy anything Misaligned /ˌmɪsəˈlaɪnd/ (a): bị lệch Ex: If the child’s teeth are becoming misaligned because of thumb sucking the dentist should be consulted Mechanic /məˈkænɪk/ (n): Thợ khí Ex: He is a car mechanic what the issue was, with the hope being that if the problem arose again, I would be able to fix it myself Luckily, the mechanic nearest my house has been the one who has always done the work on my families vehicles so he knew me and was comfortable with showing me the issue at hand and how to fix it The issue turned out to be that the chain of my motorbike and the gear teeth on the back tire had gradually become somewhat misaligned (2), and after some time had cause enough wear on the gear that the chain would slip and make CONCLUSION the noise that I had been hearing We took it off together, replaced the gear, and tightened the chain I am happy that I learned the technical reasoning behind the issue, but I don’t think that I am confident enough to it myself next time, I will go back to the mechanic This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 362 | ZIM IELTS Speaking Part What can children learn from parents? Children can learn a huge variety of things from their parents, and I think that they so whether they are trying to or not, and regardless of if that is the intention of the parents Children are naturally inclined to learn about their environment, as it is an evolutionary advantage to so Do you think some children are well behaved because of influence from their parents? I think that the parents behaviour is likely to have a large impact on how well behaved their children are, but is also largely affected by the development of the child’s own • intention /ɪnˈtenʃn/(n): Chủ đích Ex: I have no intention of going to the wedding • evolutionary /ˌiːvəˈluːʃənri/ (a): tiến hóa Ex: Some scientists have rejected evolutionary theory • emulate /ˈemjuleɪt/(v): Bắt chước Ex: They tend to emulate their teacher • distinct /dɪˈstɪŋkt/(a): Khác biệt Ex: The results of the survey fell into two distinct groups personality, though that is also influenced by parents Children will try to emulate their parents for the most part, but will also try and make themselves distinct from their parents as they get older, so this is likely affected from both sides Is it necessary for adults to learn new things? For some people it may seem that it is not necessary, but from my perspective, that is a very sad way to live your life • attitude /ˈỉtɪtjuːd/(n): Thái độ Ex: These societies have to change their attitudes towards women The world is an incredibly interesting place and no one can ever know everything about the world, if you allow your attitude to become that of “I know enough, I don’t need to learn anything new” then you are allowing yourself to be cut off from all the great new things that you can become aware of How can people learn new things? I think that the most important factor when considering learning new things is as simple as curiosity As long as a person remains curious, there will be a seemingly infinite amount of knowledge that they can pursue I think that • Curiosity /ˌkjʊəriˈɒsəti/(n): Sự tị mị Ex: Children show curiosity about everything • Pursue /pəˈsjuː/(v): theo đuổi Ex: She wishes to pursue a medical career for most people learning comes naturally, but for others it may be more difficult As long as a person can approach the situations they find themselves in with an open mind, they are going to learn no matter what This publication's user rights are given to Mã đơn hàng: 055230207 | Phone: 0785998999 | Email: quandominh0610@gmail.com 363 | ZIM Shopping online IELTS Speaking Part 2.97 Describe a problem you had while shopping online or while shopping in a store You should say: • When it happened? • What you bought? • What problem you had?
