2. TOPIC 1
WRITE A LETTER TO A PENPAL ABOUT A PERSON WHO HAS GREAT
INFLUENCE ON YOUR LIFE.
Dear Lan,
How have you been ? In your previous letter you have asked me about a person who I
admire most.I strongly believe that the person who inspires me the most is my mom ( Mrs
Mai)
First of all she is the one that gave me LIFE! Although my mother is not very modern and
beatiful, there is a whole bunch of reasons why I admire HER.
One reason is that my mother is always honest and close to me. Whenever I go out, she
waits for and phones me so I feel so safe about that. Even when I’m outside alone, she’s still
watching me from the window.
Another reason why she inspires me is because she supports me as a good teaher. If it is
for homework, putting something together or even when I’m playing. She’s always there
teaching me new things. Last reason she inspires me is she loves me no matter what. She
loves me when I do a great job on something, or when I help my sister even when I do some
thing wrong my mother always tries to understand and makes me see the things the a proper
way. Sometimes my mom is so busy doing house work or tired but if I need her help, she
stops and comes to me.
For example, Last year when I was riding my bike, I crashed into a tree and my mom was
the only one there to help me up and get me patched up with some huge bandages. After she
did that, she helped me a lot getting everywhere because it hurted when I walked.
Thirdly, my mom takes good care of me. When I get illness my mom not only gives the
medicine but also stays with me massaging my head and make sure that I get the rest I need.
My lovely mom always supports, helps, hugs, kisses, gives me confidence, listens, makes
me laugh, cheers me up, wipes my tears. My moyher will be in my mind forever… I hope to
get your letter soon, thank for your reading !!!

TOPIC 4:
Write a paragraph to introduce a beauty spot in Viet nam.
The ancient town of Hoi An, 30 km south of Da Nang, lies on the banks of the Thu
Bon River. Occupied by early western traders, Hoi An was one of the major trading centers
of Southeast Asia in the 16th century. Hoi An has a distinct Chinese atmosphere with low,
tile-roofed houses and narrow streets; the original structure of some of these streets still
remains almost intact. All the houses were made of rare wood, decorated with lacquered
boards and panels engraved with Chinese characters. Pillars were also carved with
ornamental designs. There is no shortage of bacon in town, but cao lầu is the dish that one
simply can not miss. Prices and service are rightfully on par with the latest venues in major
cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh. People are very friendly in Hoi An. Over the last few
years, Hoi An has become a very popular tourist destination in Vietnam.
TOPIC 5: Write a paragraph about one of the football matches you like best

Sports Club recently played a friendly football match with Hanoi School's Football Team.
The match was held on February 28th, at 4:00 pm at My Dinh stadium. In the first half, our
team played pretty well. They tried to keep the ball away from the goal and as near to our
rival's as possible. By a combination of passing and dribbling, the opponents gave a shot into
