Vietnam has many beautiful, interesting and attractive places, but the one I like the most is Ha Long Bay in Quang Ninh. It has been recognized as a World Natural Heritage by Unesco. And it is also recognized as the most famous and beautiful natural heritage in Vietnam. It has many beautiful islands, especially Tuan Chau. Ha Long Bay has a vast and immense coastline. The sea is very beautiful. And there are deep caves. If there is a sea, there will certainly be boats: sailing ships, yatch,..... Not only that, the evening in Ha Long is also very wonderful. We can go to the amusement park and play a lot of games. The roller coaster, the spin, the light from the flashing lights, it's all great, isn't it? There are a lot of things that I want to explore in the Bay Ha Long. I want to sail around all the islands. And I want to venture, explore dark and terrifying caves. I also want to try the delicious and wonderful seafood dishes. I want to go to Ha Long even once in my life, to see the place recognized as the most beautiful place in Vietnam.

The main festival day is on the 10th day. Every year, when the third lunar month comes, all Vietnamese citizens head for Nghia Linh Mountain, Hy Cuong Commune, Lam Thao District, Phu Tho Province in commemoration of Hung kings

Topic 1: famous place ( https://lazi.vn/edu/exercise/write-about-the-famous-place-in-vietnam-you-have-visited-viet-ve-noi-noi-tieng-tai-viet-nam)

Halong Bay is located in the northeast of Vietnam and was awarded World Heritage Site status in 1994. It is the most popular destination for tourists to this part of Vietnam and is made up of approximately 3000 islands which rise out of the water and have a magical and mysterious aura about them. The islands are made up of grottos and beaches that have been created by the wind and the water that surrounds them although Vietnamese legend says that the islands were created by a mountain dwelling dragon. He is said to have carved out the landscape with his tail before plunging into the water which then filled the landscape only leaving the peaks of the rocks sticking out.
These ‘islands’ can be viewed from the relative comfort of a boat and sailing holidays for singles and groups are common, but Halong Bay also has other things to offer. There are many caves in the Bay which tourists come to explore, some of which have been illuminated, specifically for their benefit. As well as the caves, Cat Ba National Park offers great opportunities for hiking and seeing more of the stunning scenery.The way to get to Halong Bay is via Halong City, where you can organise a trip to Halong Bay if you did not do this prior to arriving in Vietnam. There is no doubt that the best way to see Halong Bay and its stunning landscape is from the water. Part of most organised tours of this region will include a boat trip through the bay and possibly even the chance to sleep on the boat. There are also many boating and sailing holidays for singles and groups available which will offer you the chance to sail through the bay in varying degrees of comfort and style.
Whatever time of year you choose to visit, it is likely to be affected by the weather. Visiting between February and April means the weather will be cool and potentially rainy, with fog also becoming a problem. However in the summer months, the area is prone to tropical storms so boat trips will be subject to change.
If you are visiting Vietnam, even for a short time, then Halong Bay has to be on your list of places to see. It has a unique and spectacular landscape and has to be seen to be truly appreciated.

Topic 2 : my favorite film ( http://rienorinzz-rinorin.blogspot.com/2009/06/my-favourite-movie.html)

Harry Potter is one of my favourite movie. This movie becoming my favourite since it has been held on theatre eight years ago. In my opinion, the story is totally awesome. Based on the best seller novel by JK.Rowling, this movie becomes real. I mean that the story is fiction, but it looks real when we see the movie. This movie story tells about Harry Potter, he is a wizard child since he was a baby, but his parents died by the hand of The Dark wizard,Voldemort. So, he had to struggled on his whole life. When he turned to a young boy, Hogwart school of wizard and wizardry sent him a message that he is a student of that school. In there, he learned everything about magic, and also he found his true friendship, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. They always helped Harry Potter in everything, whether is right or wrong. They do this all together, happiness or sorrow. Harry Potter also learned how to love his parents, friends, teachers, and everything. When Voldemort comes to kill Harry Potter, Harry against hard to be win. His bestfriend helped him until they comes to chaotic, but they still hold out. With his witchcraft power, his friends help, and their corageous, voldemort got lost.
From the story, i learn something about love, friendship, against everything bad, with our courageous and our heart and soul. That's why this movie becoming my favourite ever, because the story is touching, even it's just a fiction story. But it doesn't mind, because we get everything in this movie, the great adventure, and the philosophy of this movie, definitely Harry Potter is my favourite.

Topic 3 : my favorite sport ( Writing about my favourite sport - Teens 3 - Campus Virtual ORT)

My favourite sport is swimming. I like it because it’s fun and I can do it all year. It keeps me healthy. In the summer, I swim in a lake near my house. When the weather is colder, I like swimming in an indoor pool. I'm on the swim team at my high school. We race against other schools. I like races because I like winning. I train twice a week at school. I'd like to swim for Mexico in the Olympics.I also enjoy running and would like to be a professional athlete one day. What about you? What is your favourite sport? Would you like to become a professional sportsman/sportswoman?

1)History was my favourite subject in my academic year and I have learned so many things from the history books I read and learned from teachers related to history and they were so interesting that I later did my graduation majoring History.

Learning about the past history is something that gives us real knowledge about our country, the world and about the human race. I read History in my grade 7 and found it very interesting. This subject taught us about the past of your world, how the social and economic condition was and how the world has been shaped by the different events throughout the time. After that, I become so interested in this subject that I started reading books on History from different writers. There is a famous saying that "to shape the future you must know the past" and history teaches us that. I had been lucky to have some great teachers who have a tremendous way of explaining the topics of History. To me, other subjects like literature and Math were also interesting but I felt a different passion on History.

After I finished my school, I took History as my major and that has greatly influenced me the way I look at the world and to the past and future. Reading and learning history was like travelling through time and generations that excited me so much.

2)Would your students benefit from participation in a study group? Are you too busy to organize and supervise study groups for students in your courses? I’m guessing the answer to both questions is yes. If so, here are some ways teachers can encourage and support student efforts to study together without being “in charge” of the study groups.

Promote study groups – First, include a list of reasons why students should join study groups in the syllabus or on the course website. Maybe there’s a short podcast available in which you talk about the usefulness of study groups. Better yet, if you’ve got some students who studied together in a previous course, ask them to make some comments about their experiences. Second, talk regularly in class about study groups. You can repeat all the benefits, suggest activities that involve good group study strategies, or propose some things they could study together (like problems they could solve, questions they could discuss). You also can solicit feedback from study groups in class or mention content you discussed with a group during office hours.

Make study groups an option – Encourage students to organize their own groups, but offer to help with the process. Nudge them with reminders, such as “Send me an email if you’re interested in being part of a study group.” Have study groups “register” their members, and then report on meeting times and activities. Suggest study activities for the group (ideas like those offered in the next item). Invite the group to meet with you during office hours or to send questions electronically. Offer registered study groups that report regular meetings a bonus point incentive depending on the average of their individual test grades. Let all students know that joining a study group is an option throughout the course.

Demonstrate the value of a study group – Too often when students study together, it’s pretty much a waste of time. If they’re reviewing for a test, they talk about how it can’t possibly be that hard and thereby relieve themselves of the need to study. Or they “go over” their notes, reading what they’ve written but never with any discussion. Group studying is too often accompanied by eating, texting, and regular side conversations.

In order for students to get the most value from their study sessions, you’ll need to help them come up with a different set of strategies. You can do so by holding a review session and asking students to form potential study groups (it’s up to them if they want to meet as a group more often). Give the groups tasks like these: 1) For three minutes everybody reviews their notes and lists five things they think will be on the test and then for five minutes they share lists and create a group list of the items most often mentioned. During the exam debrief, students revisit their list of things they expected to see on the exam. Were those things on the exam? 2) Everybody takes three minutes and writes a question about some content they don’t understand or wish they understood better. The group devotes a specified amount of time to each question, looking for relevant content in their notes and the text. 3) The group has 20 minutes to make one crib sheet that everyone in that group can use during the exam.

Offer proof that study groups improve performance – Compare the scores, points, or grades of those working in study groups with those who aren’t. These are data which should be collected across several sections of the course.

Define study groups broadly – Students tend to think of study groups for exam preparation, but that isn’t the only kind of student collaboration that promotes learning. If there are regularly assigned readings for the course, students can get together to discuss the reading. Again you might let them do this first in class with a good set of prompts so they see how dialogue can enrich and deepen their understanding of the assigned material. Readings are easily discussed in virtual environments, which means the group doesn’t have to find a time when everybody can meet. If various writing assignments are required in the course, students can form peer editing groups. Rubrics, checklists, and prompts can help them get beyond superficial feedback (“you might need a comma here”) to the kind of helpful critique that improves the writing.

I usually get up at 5:30 in the morning. After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I do morning exercises for fifteen minutes. Then I have breakfast with Mum and Dad at 6:15 and leave home for school at 6:30. My classes start at 7:00 and end at 11:15. After that I go home, and have lunch with my family at 12:00. After lunch I usually have a short rest. I study my lessons , read books, and do homework from 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. I often play badminton with my friends on the ground at 4:30. I come back home and have dinner at 6:00 p.m. After dinner, I often watch the news on TV for thirty minutes. Then I prepare for the new lessons and go to bed at 10:30 p.m

Talk about the Tet holiday in your country.
You should say:

- When it takes place?

=>Tuesday, February 1

. My family usually has a day off on the 28th of the New Year, so my parents often go to buy peach branches and kumquat trees on this day.

- Why it takes place?

=>Lunar New Year is a typical Tet holiday and depends on each country

- What the people do during this festival?

It is said that on the 1st of the Father's Day, the 2nd of the Mother's Day, and the 3rd of the Teacher's New Year, but in my place, all of my relatives celebrate in one day. Thus, my parents have time to congratulate colleagues and superiors

- and explain why this festival is important to you?

BECAUSE Every evening on the 30th of Tet, my whole family gathers around a pot of banh chung to chat and welcome the New Year's Eve moment, watch fireworks and pray for a peaceful new year. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I wore new clothes with my parents to wish them New Year's Eve, and received lucky money from grandparents and uncles at the beginning of the year. Those are very happy moments, I hope every New Year my family is as happy and warm as that

All of the special holidays in my country, I like Tet the most. Tet is an occasion to everyone get together in warm atmosphere. Before Tet holiday, Everyone prepares many things and decorates their house. I plant a lot of flowers in front of my house and buy many things such as clothes, foods. Besides, most of the streets also are decorated beautifully with colorful lights and flowers. During Tet, I spends more time on visiting my relatives, friends and colleagues. Especially, I give to each other the best wishes for the new year. Tet is an opportunity for children receive lucky money. There is a funny thing that people try to avoid argument or saying any bad things at Tet. I love Tet holiday!

In my country, the Tet holiday is a lovely cultural event. This day is for senior parents who have children and grandkids who live far away; it is a day when family gather, there are crackling fireworks, and youngsters play. People frequently visit their relatives to wish Tet, and everyone is dressed in lovely ao dai. Children are given fortunate money by grownups, who wish them well. As a result, Tet is a holiday that I like and holds great significance for myself and many others.

After the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, the Vietnamese sports team did not win any medals and left empty-handed, which made a sports lover like me feel down. That gives me more motivation to continue to practice better badminton. Badminton is a very popular sport in every country in the world, is a racquet sport played between 2 players (singles) or 2 pairs of athletes (doubles) on 2 halves of the court. rectangular sphere divided by a grid in the middle. Players score points by sending the ball over the net with a racket and hitting the ground on the other side of the opponent's court. I have been playing badminton for 4 years now and find it very interesting, it makes me healthier, more comfortable, it seems to have become a hobby of mine. Also, I can kill time and make friends from badminton! ^^

The sport that I want to learn and learn more about is Soccer. What is needed for it is flexibility, mobility and a ball. I learn it by watching soccer instructional videos and watching matches. directly about football, I also often practice it in my free time. I have a friend who is knowledgeable about football, he often teaches me about it. I want to learn and learn this sport because it's good for health and it's quite popular. The kick ball makes me really enjoy watching football, I'm a fan of it, I also want to be a soccer player in the future so I practice from now on.

A sports I would like to learn is football which is so-called the king of sports.

 

Football is the popular kind of sports in almost all countries in the world. It is a collective game with 2 teams and each team has 11 players. The main purpose is that players try to keep their goal safe and kick the ball to the net of their opponents without using their hands or arms. The team that scores more goals wins.

 

It is the most famous sports in my country. I had a learn this sport since I was 5 years old. I think it is really difficult to learn to play soccer well. A player needs to be very strong to compete with others, and be skillful in ball controlling, heading as well as having team spirit. A good football team needs to have solidarity as well as the ability to control the game. 

 

I really love learning it because of the drama and surprise in each match.
