outside influences such as pests or extreme climate. Therefore, they
can be development and are able to decrease crop loss. Besides, many
individuals also believe that biotech food has more nutritional content.
they are good for human’s health. They also protect the environment.
they do not require too much pesticides and fertilizers that are one of
the most primary causes of soil and water pollution.
One of the most serious issues is that people may cope with unknown
long-term health effects. In reality, many people have been hesitant to
use this kind of food because they worry about its harmful, especially
dangers coming from genetic modifications. In addition, the increase in
the number of people using biotech food in modern society will put a
pressure on the local economy. farmers will cannot sell their products.
As a result, farmer must cope with unemployment and having a low-
quality life. From time to time, this problem may negatively affect the
nation's economy due to the rise of the poverty rate.
People should consider carefully before deciding primary food sources
with the aim of having a healthy life.

Hi Sara,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m writing to tell you how I feel about
the new house we moved into last week.
I’m very happy with the new house. It’s spacious, bright and cozy. It has
a big living room, a modern kitchen, two bathrooms and three bedrooms.
The backyard is lovely, with a lot of flowers and trees. There is also a
garage where we can park our car.
My bedroom is my favorite part of the house. It’s on the second floor,
facing the street. It has a large window that lets in a lot of natural light.
The walls are painted blue, which is my favorite color. I have a
comfortable bed, a desk, a bookshelf and a closet. I also have some
posters and photos on the walls to make it more personal.
I’m really enjoying living in the new house. It feels like home. I can’t
wait for you to come and visit me soon. Please write back and tell me
how you are doing.
Love,

Dear Susan, It’s great to receive your email. I’m sorry I couldn’t reply to
you earlier because I’ve been really busy recently. You asked me about
Mai who is going to take a course in England this summer. I would say
that she’s a helpful and humorous girl. You know, she’s always willing
to help people around her. Besides, her sense of humor will make you
laugh all days. Regarding Mai’s hobbies, she’s a big fan of playing tennis
and cooking. This piece of information definitely excites you, right?
Because as I know, you’re also keen on playing tennis. If you live with
her, you two can experience relaxing moments together when playing
tennis. About her cooking ability, I’m sure you will be highly impressed
because this girl really has a God-given talent as a cook and her food
will certainly make your mouth water. Is that great? If she moves to
your house, you will have chance to enjoy delicious meals every day. In
terms of her work, she’s now a chef at a French restaurant and she 40
wants to study more about Western cuisine. That’s why she will take a
cooking course this summer in London. That’s some information I know
about Mai and I think she will be an amazing friend for you. If you need
any other information, just contact me. Have a nice day! Best regards
You received an email from your friend.
 Yesterday, I had a wonderful birthday party with my family and friends.
When I came home from school, I was surprised when I saw a huge
birthday cake made by my mother. My house was decorated for the party
and all my close friends and relatives were there. We sang birthday song
and enjoyed delicious food. It was a great party. How about your last
birthday party? What did you do? How did you feel? Did you enjoy it?

Write a reply to him/ her. You should write at least 120 words.
Hi,
I’m so happy to hear that you had a wonderful birthday party with your family and
friends. It sounds like you had a lot of fun and felt loved and appreciated. Your
mother is so sweet to make you a huge birthday cake. I wish I could have been
there to celebrate with you.
My last birthday party was also very memorable and enjoyable. It was during the
lockdown, so I couldn’t have a big party like you. But my parents and my sister
made it special for me. They decorated my room with balloons and streamers and
gave me some nice gifts. They also ordered pizza and ice cream for me, which are
my favorite foods. We watched a movie together and played some games online. I
felt very happy and grateful for having such a caring family.
Thank you for sharing your birthday experience with me. I hope you have a great
year ahead and achieve all your goals and dreams.
Best wishes,
Your friend

you can stay with my family in our spare room. I believe not only can
you learn lots of Vietnamese but you can also enjoy traditional dishes
as my mother is a great cook. About a part-time job, if I were you, I
would apply for being a waiter at a coffee shop. In my opinion, this job
will definitely offer you great chances to practice Vietnamese as there
are a number of young people getting around here and those have a lot
of free time to chat with you. What do you think?
 You asked me some information about Tet holiday in Vietnam. You
know, it’s a chance for family reunion. I mean that on this special
occasion, everyone tries their best to come back home to celebrate the
event with their families no matter how far or busy they are. Before
Tet, people make lots of preparations such as shopping for new clothes,
furniture; having their houses painted or decorating their homes with
kumquat trees and peach flowers. On New Year’s Eve, we often make
offerings to our ancestors and people often go to watch the fireworks.
After that, many of them go to pagodas to pray for their good luck,
health and business for the upcoming year. On the first days of Lunar
New Year, people usually visit their grandparents, close relatives and
friends and give them the best wishes. Besides, children and elderly
people often receive lucky money. Regarding several dishes for Tet, it’s
common that people make plenty of traditional dishes, for example,
Banh Chung or Spring rolls.
Since its development in the 1970s, the Internet has become a key tool
for obtaining information and for communication all over the world.
The Internet has both advantages and disadvantages but, overall, I
believe the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.
2. Thân bài: a) Advantages of the Internet
Firstly, the Internet has made work and social life much easier. Sending
emails and using video conferencing in the workplace have made
business quicker and more efficient. For example, in the past, people
often had to travel long distances for meetings and now they can video
call instead. Also, the Internet makes it easier to keep in contact with
family and friends through email and social networking websites.
People can give friends and relatives their news quickly and easily. In
addition, meetings, parties and social events for large groups of people
are easier to organize in this way. Finally, finding out information online
is much quicker than visiting libraries or making expensive phone calls.
b) Disadvantages of the Internet
On the other hand, people claim the Internet has some downsides.
Some people say that the Internet makes people lazy. For example,
people now do lots of things online, like shopping and socializing, when
it might be better for them to do these things in the ‘real’ world.
Furthermore, the Internet contains a lot of information which is not
correct. This is because anyone can put anything they want on the
Internet and it is not always checked for accuracy or truth. Users need
to be sure that the websites they look at are reliable sources of
information.
3. Kết bài: In conclusion, although it has advantages and disadvantages,
the Internet has made life so much easier in so many ways, that, as long
as people know how to use it effectively, it can be an excellent tool
Overpopulation has become one of the most serious problems in urban
areas. According to a report by the United Nations, about half of the
world’s population lives in cities and it is estimated that the figure will
reach 66% by 2050. This essay will describe the problem of
overpopulation in urban areas and suggest possible solutions to tackle
them.
It is obvious that being too overcrowded has many negative effects.
Firstly, overpopulation leads to environmental problems such as air,
water, noise pollution simply because there are too many people living
in the area. Another worrying trend is the depletion of natural
resources as the Earth cannot produce enough water and food for such
an increasing population. Finally, being overpopulated also causes
social issues. One of the most critical concerns is the high
unemployment rate, which results in higher crime rates as the
unemployed cannot make money to support themselves.
Measures should be taken in order to combat with these problems.
Firstly, government should provide people with better education
especially in efficient family planning. As a result, the birthrate is low,
which means fewer people are born every day. Another solution is for
the government to make country life better so that fewer people
migrate from the countryside to cities. For example, they could
upgrade facilities like the cinemas, healthcare facilities, shopping malls
and so on. At the same time, it can help if the government moves more
companies to the countryside so that people can easily find jobs.
I believe that only these suggested steps are taken, can the problem of
overpopulation be improved.
❖ Dear Mark, I hope you’re well and that you had a fantastic time
on your birthday. I’m so sorry that I wasn't there to celebrate with
you, and for not letting you know beforehand that I wouldn’t be
able to come. I feel terrible that I haven't found the time to
contact you until now. The truth is that I’ve been under a lot of
stress at work recently. I was in danger of losing my job if I didn’t
meet a sales target, so I haven’t been able to think about anything
else over the last few weeks. This is why I couldn’t be at your
party, and why I didn’t call to tell you I wouldn’t be there. I really
hope you’ll forgive me for being so thoughtless, and I hope you’ll
let me make it up to you. By way of an apology, I’ve bought
tickets for us both to go to the football next Saturday; I hope
you’ll come. 31 Speak to y

Dear Hana, It is so good to hear from you again. I am sorry for not
replying your letter promptly as I am busy with participating in a lot of
activities in my summer camp. I am writing to tell you a little bit about
my trip in a nearby campsite. This summer vacation, my school
organizes a 3-day camp for all students. I am staying in a tent with
some of my class members. Many teachers and counsellors who have
lots of experience in holding camping activities accompany us. In terms
of activities, on the first day, all of us were divided into groups and
assigned with various tasks such as setting up tents, gathering firewood
and preparing food for barbecue. Moreover, today, teachers organize
interesting games and outdoor activities for us to socialize with
students from other classes like team games, quizzes and so on.
Tomorrow, counsellors will help us explore some places near the
campsite. 36 I am extremely excited about this trip as it offers me a
chance to enjoy a relaxing time with friends after stressful studying
hours. Not only that, it enables me to improve soft skills like
communication skills, teamwork skills, etc.
