WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT Practical value Giá trị thực tiễn Moral orientation Định hướng đạo đức Fundamentally (adj) Về Fictional (adj) Giả tưởng Moral development Phát triển nhân cách Empathise (v) Đồng cảm Subjective judgements Đánh giá/Phán xét cách chủ quan Contradicting opinions Ý kiến trái chiều Cherish (v) Trân trọng Open-minded (adj) Cởi mở/sẵn sàng tiếp thu Testaments (n) Bằng chứng/Minh chứng Curriculum (n) Chương trình giáo dục Impractical (adj) Khơng thực tế/ Không thực tiễn Nurture (v) Nuôi dưỡng EXAMPLE Some people argue that teaching literature in high schools is a sheer waste of time since it has little to no practical value However, I contend that it provides essential moral orientation to students On the one hand, high schoolers might find it hard to apply literature lessons to real life More specifically, writers or poets compose their works at a time that is fundamentally different from the present teenager’s world More importantly, characters in novels are clearly fictional, possessing a set of behaviours that are not always relatable in modern terms For instance, throughout the poem “Odyssey”, the hero resolved to use violence to settle all disagreements, an approach that would not work in our current, more peaceful civilisation On the other hand, it appears to me that this subject is crucial to the moral development of those at high school While studying novels or poems, they are able to empathise with the characters, understanding their circumstances in the given settings instead of making subjective judgements As a result, young learners would likely become empathetic graduates who are willing to appreciate contradicting opinions and cherish differences, eventually becoming more open-minded citizens That is a testament why literature should be included in school curriculum In conclusion, although novels or poems may seem to be impractical, I am convinced that literature must have a place in high school programs to nurture welle ducated citizens Nevertheless, teachers should adopt more creative teaching methods such as role playing or plot construction to make lessons more relevant to their students (Word count: 256 words) 21 27/08/2022 Question: As transport and accommodation problems are increasing in many cities, some governments encourage businesses to move to rural areas Do you think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT A shortage of skilled labour Sự thiếu hụt lao động có kỹ The narrowed wealth gap Khoảng cách giàu nghèo thu hẹp Pay scant attention to proper waste treatment Ít ý đến việc xử lý chất thải yêu cầu Local water bodies and land Các vùng nước đất đai địa phương The lack of highly qualified labour Thiếu lao động có trình độ cao Intellectually involved professions Các ngành nghề liên quan đến trí tuệ The hinterland Vùng xa thành thị Minimise the financial gap Giảm thiểu khoảng cách tài Attract more foreign investment Thu hút nhiều vốn đầu tư nước ngồi Relocation packages Gói di dời EXAMPLE It is prevalent that governments are recommending firms to relocate to the countryside to alleviate issues regarding transport and housing in urban areas Although this tendency poses a threat to the environment and may result in a shortage of skilled labour in rural areas, the benefits including more job opportunities for local people and the narrowed wealth gap between regions are more significant On the one hand, there are two drawbacks associated with encouraging enterprises to move to the countryside The first is that it can trigger environmental damage in the area This is explained by the fact that industrial activities implemented by these companies often release a substantial amount of waste If such businesses pay scant attention to proper waste treatment, more untreated waste could be discharged into local water bodies and land, contaminating the living areas of rural residents Another demerit is the lack of highly qualified labour More specifically, as most people living in small towns and villages are less likely to receive sufficient education to pursue more intellectually involved professions, firms in such places often find it challenging to recruit skilled employees On the other hand, the relocation of corporations to the hinterland offers more noticeable benefits The first one is there can be more employment opportunities for rural dwellers To be more specific, although it may be hard to employ white-collar workers, businesses can still provide jobs for numerous blue-collar ones As a result, they can acquire higher income and have a better quality of life Additionally, this can minimise the financial gap between rural and urban areas This is because an increasing number of companies operating in the countryside can enable the rural economy to thrive and attract more foreign investment, thus discouraging more people from residing in big cities In conclusion, I completely agree that the merits such as the provision of better job opportunities and the narrower financial gap in different areas over the demerits of environmental contamination and the shortage of highly skilled workers because these downsides can be tackled by offering relocation packages to skilled workers to convince them to work in rural regions and rigorous monitoring by environmental agencies to prevent any major environmental harm from discharge of waste (World count: 370) 22 03/09/2022 Question: Some people think that the detailed criminal description on newspapers and TV has bad influences, so this kind of information should be restricted in the media To what extent you agree or disagree? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT Criminal acts Các hành vi phạm tội Be reported meticulously Được tường trình tỉ mỉ Violate the laws Vi phạm luật pháp Replicate infractions Sao chép vi phạm Commit the original crime Phạm tội ban đầu Imitate this horrible act Bắt chước hành động khủng khiếp The detailed presentation of crimes Sự trình bày chi tiết tội ác A victim of a potential crime Một nạn nhân tội phạm tiềm tàng Experience a sense of insecurity Trải qua cảm giác bất an A loose-knit community Một cộng đồng lỏng lẻo, thiếu kết nối EXAMPLE It is argued that reporting crimes in detail in printed newspapers and on television is detrimental; therefore, it should be limited I completely agree with this notion since it gives rise to criminal acts and people’s anxiety The first reason for my view that crimes should not be reported meticulously is because it encourages viewers to violate the laws More specifically, numerous teenagers tend to follow or replicate infractions presented with detailed procedures, methods and tools mainly because they have great curiosity or they want to make a grand impression by proving that they can be better than the person who committed the original crime For instance, Shinochiro Azima, a 14-year-old student in Japan killed two students in 1997 by cutting off their heads after watching a documentary about an American criminal, the Zodiac Killer, who performed the same acts As he was being interrogated, he admitted that he imitated this horrible act since he wanted to impress other people Consequently, this may pose a threat to social stability due to growing crime rates Another justification for why I oppose the detailed presentation of crimes via the mass media is that members of the public’s anxiety can be triggered This is because they may consider their community unsafe and then hesitate to connect with others as too many cruel acts are reported in the media They would likely feel afraid of being a victim of a potential crime and constantly experience a sense of insecurity As a result, it could lead to a loose-knit community where people are not willing to support those in need In conclusion, I strongly oppose the idea of presenting detailed crime reports on newspapers and television because it provokes more individuals to be driven to crime and arouses people’s apprehension It is advisable that the details of the crimes should be completely banned to minimise its adverse impacts on viewers (World count: 317) 23 17/09/2022 Question: In some countries, small town-centre shops are going out of business because people tend to drive to large out-of-town stores As a result, people without cars have limited access to out-of-town stores, and it may result in an increase in the use of cars Do you think the disadvantages of this change outweigh its advantages? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT In the high streets of towns Trên phố lớn thị trấn Non-car owners Những người không sở hữu ô tô Large-scale shopping centers Các trung tâm mua sắm quy mô lớn Entry-level jobs Những công việc không đòi hỏi kinh nghiệm Management positions Các vị trí quản lý Curb unemployment Giảm thất nghiệp Suburban shops Các cửa hàng ngoại ô Profitable endeavours Những hoạt động có ích Personal motorised vehicles Các phương tiện giới cá nhân Become more unreachable on foot Trở nên khó tiếp cận EXAMPLE In various parts of the world, a number of small stores in the high streets of towns have gone bankrupt due to the dominance of large stores located on the outskirts This has led to difficulty in accessibility for non-car owners and an increase in car usage While there might be a positive influence to this change, I believe the negative impacts are by far more significant On the one hand, large-scale shopping centers may create more employment opportunities for local communities where they operate These opportunities can vary, ranging from entry-level jobs to management positions A good example in this case is Walmart Each of the brand’s supermarkets is estimated to hire up to two thousand people working as customer assistants, goods couriers, or other back-office positions with competitive benefit packages As many of these employees are from nearby areas, Walmart has been praised by some town councils for helping to curb unemployment, sustaining local development However, one of many drawbacks is that the prevalence of suburban shops causes great inconvenience to customers Many shoppers now are unable to make a quick purchase at nearby convenience stores which used to be omnipresent in town centers, and instead they have to spend time traveling to shop instead of on other profitable endeavours such as studying, working and resting Another disadvantage is that the use of personal motorised vehicles is on a rise As stores become more unreachable on foot, many urban denizens would switch to owning and driving cars, leading to a significant increase in the number of vehicles on the road This inevitably gives rise to the quantity of exhaust fumes from car engines which exacerbate environmental pollution, as well as congestion and increased damage to road infrastructure In conclusion, I agree that the demerits such as inconvenience of shopping to local people and adverse impacts on the environment and traffic issues outweigh the merit of providing a certain number of jobs Therefore, I maintain that authorities should provide financial and management support to encourage the development of small stores in the downtown (World count: 344) 24 03/12/2022 Question: Some people think that it's important to spend money on family celebrations (e.g weddings, birthdays) However, some think that expensive celebrations are a waste of money Discuss both views and give your opinion WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT Family festivities Ngày lễ gia đình Spend exorbitantly Chi tiêu mức Extravagant Xa hoa Practical purposes Mục đich thực tiễn Sustain their lives Duy trì sống họ Foster family values Ni dưỡng giá trị gia đình Long-lasting bonds Sự gắn kết lâu dài Familial relationships Quan hệ gia đình Financial state Tình trạng tài Family festivities Ngày lễ gia đình Exacerbate environmental pollution Làm trầm trọng thêm tình trạng ô nhiễm môi trường EXAMPLE It is sometimes argued that allocating funding to family festivities such as weddings and birthdays is necessary Nevertheless, others contend that it squanders money This essay will elaborate on the opposing perspectives and the reasons why I am in favour of the former view Admittedly, spending exorbitantly on family celebrations can be seen as extravagant to some extent First, these celebrations last only one day or a few hours, which often lead to a waste of food and other elements, and are often not appreciated by guests Therefore, the expenditure on them should be used for more practical purposes such as electricity, food supply, healthcare and their children’s education Specifically, for those of low income, allocating income to regular occasions like these is not vital for them to sustain their lives Furthermore, organizing these occasions also creates expectations from children, friends and family members that this is the norm, so if the budget does not allow for them in the future, then their expectations are not met, leading to dissatisfaction among them However, spending on household activities and celebrations is reasonable due to several benefits The first one is that it can strengthen bonds between family members This is because they have opportunities to reunite and update each other on their lives For instance, a wedding is a special occasion for people to gather and share with their relatives about their current matters such as jobs, marital status and life events, forging their relationships Another advantage is that family celebrations can foster family values To illustrate, as a 30th wedding anniversary displays people’s long-lasting bonds, organizing this type of event may encourage other married couples to focus on strengthening their relationships In conclusion, each point of view has its own merits; however, I am of the opinion that people should spend their money on family celebrations because their familial relationships can be boosted and family values can be nurtured However, costly celebrations should be organized by the wealthy only as they are financially affordable for them It is advisable that people should refer to their financial state to decide how elaborate their family celebrations can be (Word count: 356 words) 25 17/12/2022 Question: In many countries people increasingly talk about money (how much they earn or how much they pay for things in their daily conversations) Why? Is this a positive or negative trend? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT Income figures Con số thu nhập Reasonable spending Chi tiêu hợp lý Spending allocations Phân bổ chi tiêu Budget Chi tiêu, phân bổ chi tiêu Competitive salaries Mức lương cạnh tranh Better paying jobs Công việc trả lương cao Alter between occupations Đổi việc Personnel management and retention Quản lý giữ chân nhân The human resources department Phòng nhân Attract and retain talents Thu hút giữ chân nhân tài EXAMPLE People in different parts of the world are more open to talk about their income figures and expenses with others This is attributed to the desire to learn about reasonable spending and seek better job opportunities I believe that this propensity is detrimental to both businesses and individuals There are two driving factors behind the tendency of sharing their salary and spending among individuals The first one is that they want to receive advice in terms of expenditure This is because they can compare spending allocations for different aspects of their lives with others and learn from each other how to budget more wisely Another justification is that they are inclined to acquire more information about competitive salaries, identifying better chances in the job market When conversing with friends and colleagues about income, employees can be informed about better paying jobs and more desirable workplaces As a result, they would likely alter between occupations and workplaces to earn more money However, I consider that this tendency has adverse impacts on both employers and employees In terms of the former, it poses a threat to personnel management and retention For instance, it is challenging for the human resources department in each company to offer a suitable salary to each employee when personnel openly share about their income in the workplace, failing to attract and retain talents who deserve higher income Furthermore, people’s mentality can be adversely influenced More specifically, they are likely to be stressed and depressed when finding out that others are able to spend more or purchase things that they can afford In conclusion, the rising trend of conversing about income and spending matters is rooted from the yearning for useful advice on budgeting and higher paying jobs Nevertheless, I contend that it has deleterious influence on both employers’ management and individuals’ mental well-being (Word count: 305) 26 29/12/2022 Question: Some people think that the best way to increase road safety is to increase the minimum legal age for driving cars or riding motorbikes To what extent you agree or disagree? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT The minimum age of eligibility for drivers Độ tuổi tối thiểu cho người lái xe Careless driving Lái xe bất cẩn Reckless driving Mitigate traffic incidents Giảm thiểu cố giao thơng Enact more severe punishments Ban hành hình phạt nghiêm khắc Commit traffic-based infringements Vi phạm luật giao thông Exceed the speed limit Vượt giới hạn tốc độ Have their driver’s licence revoked Bị tước giấy phép lái xe Join the traffic Tham gia giao thông Violate traffic laws Vi phạm luật giao thông Underage drivers Tài xế chưa đủ tuổi Mitigate traffic incidents Giảm thiểu cố giao thông EXAMPLE It is argued that the most effective measure to improve road safety is raising the minimum age of eligibility for drivers I mostly disagree with this notion since it can reduce careless driving; however, I am of the opinion that it is ideal to combine it with other approaches such as imposing stricter punishments and upgrading public transportation Admittedly, increasing the minimum legal driving age can reduce traffic accidents which boosts the safety of roads More specifically, this practice deters young commuters who are immature and unaware of the repercussions of their actions from reckless driving As people get older, they are more mature and responsible when they are in traffic, therefore, potentially mitigating traffic incidents; generating a safer environment for other commuters However, this proposal is not optimal by itself since there are two other effective measures which should sit alongside older licensing ages for the best outcome Chief of these is that the government should enact more severe punishments to prevent drivers from committing traffic-based infringements For example, drivers who exceed the speed limit or drink alcohol while driving should have to pay a heavy monetary fine or have their driver’s licence revoked As a result, more drivers will obey the rules while joining the traffic Another approach is for the government to enhance the public transportation infrastructure such as bus and train services to encourage citizens to use them in their daily life This can lead to a decline in the number of people utilising private vehicles and therefore safer roads In conclusion, I somewhat disagree that increasing the legal driving age can encourage safer travelling, as I believe that other solutions in conjunction with it such as the introduction of more grave punishments on those who violate traffic laws and the enhancement of public transportation combine to make the most viable solution since not all accidents are caused by underage drivers It is advisable that all three options should be considered by authorities to address traffic problems effectively (Word count: 332) 27 11/02/2023 Question: Some people think that if a country is already rich, any addition in economic wealth does not make its citizens happier Do you agree or disagree? WORD LIST ENGLISH TIẾNG VIỆT Give rise to work demands Gia tăng nhu cầu làm việc Widen the gap between social classes Mở rộng khoảng cách tầng lớp xã hội Economic prosperity Sự thịnh vượng kinh tế Foster innovation Thúc đẩy đổi Extended working hours Giờ làm việc kéo dài Increase income inequality Gia tăng bất bình đẳng thu nhập Magnates Người giàu Improved quality of life Chất lượng sống cải thiện A thriving economy Một kinh tế thịnh vượng Financial ability Khả tài Income disparity Sự chênh lệch thu nhập Economic affluence Sự sung túc kinh tế EXAMPLE It is argued that economic progress in wealthy countries cannot enable their citizens to feel more satisfied Although I admit that greater affluence can give rise to work demands and widen the gap between social classes, I mostly disagree with this notion since it ensures greater sense of comfort among people in the form of enhanced living conditions and effective solutions to community concerns On the one hand, I concede that the citizens of a prosperous nation might not experience greater happiness as a result of further economic prosperity in several aspects The first one is that individuals often assume a greater workload More specifically, in order to expand the economy, businesses have to boost their productivity and foster innovation, which normally translates into extended working hours This may leave employees less time for personal lives, leading to exacerbating their mental health issues such as stress and depression Furthermore, expanding the economy has the potential to increase income inequality This is because the benefits of economic growth are often concentrated in the hands of a few magnates or corporations, rather than being shared equally among all citizens As a result, employees receiving minimal or no wage increments may feel discontented On the other hand, I consider improving the economy is associated with increased happiness among citizens for several reasons Most noticeably, an increase in wealth can also result in improved quality of life Those living in a thriving economy can be offered better living conditions, improved infrastructure and greater access to leisure and entertainment Therefore, their level of satisfaction can be higher Another justification is the financial ability to address social problems To be more specific, economic growth can provide resources for governments to tackle social problems like poverty, inequality and unemployment If people see that their government is taking action to address these issues, they may feel more optimistic and content with their lives In conclusion, while increased wealth can trigger a higher volume of work and income disparity in society, I am of the opinion that it greatly contributes to one’s fulfilment due to better living standards and social issues being tackled to establish more pleasant communities It is advisable that nations should continue to boost their economic affluence while considering their people’s happiness (Word count: 376)
