Write a short paragraph (among 7 - 10 sentences) about a person you love most.
A person that I absolutely adore is my mom. She is 40 years old and she is a Math teacher at my school. She is tall with short black hair and a beautiful face. In this summer, she teaches for an education company so she has to work everyday. She is very hard-working, helpful and patient. Whenever students don't understand, she will teach more carefully. She always listens to students' problems and find the solution for them. At home, she does the housework everyday and cook meals for our family. My mom is awesome. I love her very much!
Living in the city offers numerous advantages, including easy access to a wide range of amenities and services, such as restaurants, shopping centers, entertainment venues, and healthcare facilities. Cities are often hubs of economic activity, providing ample job opportunities and career prospects. Additionally, cities tend to have better transportation systems, making it convenient to move around and reducing the need for personal vehicles. However, urban living also comes with its fair share of disadvantages. Cities can be crowded and noisy, leading to higher stress levels for some residents. The cost of living is typically higher in cities, with expensive housing and living expenses. Moreover, pollution and traffic congestion can impact the overall quality of life. Ultimately, the choice between city living and rural living depends on individual preferences and priorities.
Tiếng Việt: Sống trong thành phố mang lại nhiều lợi ích, bao gồm việc dễ dàng tiếp cận đến nhiều tiện ích và dịch vụ như nhà hàng, trung tâm mua sắm, địa điểm giải trí và các cơ sở y tế. Thành phố thường là trung tâm hoạt động kinh tế, cung cấp nhiều cơ hội việc làm và triển vọng nghề nghiệp. Ngoài ra, thành phố thường có hệ thống giao thông tốt hơn, làm cho việc di chuyển thuận tiện hơn và giảm sự cần thiết của xe cá nhân. Tuy nhiên, cuộc sống đô thị cũng đi kèm với nhiều hạn chế. Thành phố có thể đông đúc và ồn ào, gây áp lực tâm lý cao hơn đối với một số cư dân. Chi phí sinh hoạt thường cao hơn ở thành phố, với nhà ở và chi phí sống đắt đỏ. Hơn nữa, ô nhiễm và tắc đường có thể ảnh hưởng đến chất lượng cuộc sống tổng thể. Cuối cùng, sự lựa chọn giữa cuộc sống ở thành phố và cuộc sống ở nông thôn phụ thuộc vào sở thích và ưu tiên cá nhân của từng người.

안녕하세요 여러분, 저는 여기 처음 왔어요!
Lớp 1 nên chọn trường song ngữ hay trường quốc tế cho con?
Bước vào lớp 1 là cột mốc quan trọng, và việc chọn trường sẽ ảnh hưởng lớn đến hành trình học tập của trẻ.
Trường song ngữ quốc tế: Giúp con vừa nắm vững chương trình phổ thông Việt Nam, vừa tiếp cận ngoại ngữ sớm. Đây là lựa chọn phù hợp với gia đình muốn con giỏi tiếng Anh nhưng vẫn giữ nền tảng văn hoá Việt.
Trường quốc tế: Toàn bộ chương trình học bằng tiếng Anh theo chuẩn quốc tế, khuyến khích tư duy sáng tạo, kỹ năng tự lập. Đây là hướng đi dành cho gia đình có kế hoạch cho con du học hoặc hội nhập toàn cầu từ sớm.
👉 Không có lựa chọn nào tuyệt đối tốt cho tất cả. Phụ huynh nên cân nhắc định hướng tương lai, khả năng tài chính và tính cách của con để tìm ra môi trường phù hợp nhất.
Trường song ngữ phù hợp với gia đình mong con vừa thành thạo ngoại ngữ, vừa giữ gìn bản sắc văn hoá Việt. Trong khi đó, trường quốc tế lại là lựa chọn lý tưởng cho những phụ huynh định hướng con sớm hội nhập toàn cầu và chuẩn bị du học.
👉 Nếu bạn đang tìm kiếm một môi trường song ngữ hiện đại, kết hợp hài hòa giữa học thuật, văn hoá và kỹ năng toàn cầu, thì Trường Việt Anh chính là lựa chọn lý tưởng. Hãy để con bạn được phát triển toàn diện và sẵn sàng chinh phục tương lai ngay từ hôm nay.
Cảm ơn bạn đã gợi ý cho mình. Mình mới lớp 7, và đang học trường công. Hồi lớp 1 mình cũng học trường công. Bố mẹ mình bảo học mấy trường tư thì đắt lắm, thêm cả học phí của hai chị em mình nữa, ngần ấy tiền không chi nổi đâu.
Có thể học mỗi loại trường có thế mạnh khác nhau, ưu điểm và nhược điểm khác nhau. Nhưng cũng cần phải xét nhiều yếu tố nữa bạn ạ:
+ Có gần nhà hay không?
+ Có đắt hay không?
+ Sự cạnh tranh như thế nào?
+ ...
Nếu tất cả mọi trường đều giống nhau ở tiêu chí này, thì chúng ta không phải băn khoăn nữa, đúng không?
Úi bạn ơi, bạn chụp thẳng và gần hơn nhé, chữ mờ và nhỏ quá, mình không đọc được.
