1. Do you like pets? What kind of pets do you like best? Why?
Among kinds of pets, I like dogs best because of the following reasons. First, the 
dog is lovely. There are many dogs which have beautiful hair. Their faces are often 
very expressive. Especially you will like having a dog when you see a Japanese dog. 
It is very small and very cute. Second, the dog is loyal. Dogs are really effective 
gatekeepers for you every night and when you are away from home. Finally, the dog 
can bring you good luck. It is said that when a strange dog comes to your house, you 
may win in the lottery. It is the reasons above that I like dogs best.
2. If you were a billionaire, what would you do?
If I were a billionaire, I would build a vocational school for street children. The 
following are the reasons of my decision. First of all, street children are very poor. 
They have no job, no home, very little money. Their lives are unstable in streets. In 
addition, street children are helpless. They are put aside society. Their bad destinies 
are always in danger. Finally, street children are the results of the mistakes of adults. 
They are innocent. Therefore, they are worth of being helped to have a chance for 
a better life. It is the above-mentioned things that I decide to build a vocational 
school for helping street children when I become a billionaire.
3. How many seasons are there in the South of Vietnam? Which one do you 
prefer? Why?
Southern Vietnam has two seasons: wet season and dry season. However, I only 
like the dry season because of the reasons as follows. Firstly, in the dry season, 
we can do many things very conveniently and comfortably such as going to school, 
going on picnic, traveling whenever I like, while in the wet season, rains day after day 
prevent us from doing many things. Secondly, the dry season is always peaceful for 
our living. On the contrary, floods, storms, thunders, landslides are deadly disasters 
which often come in the rainy season. Last of all, the dry season is the ideal time for 
earning-for-living activities of many people, especially the poor. In the mean time, 
bad phenomena of weather usually happen in the wet season, causing the life of very 
many people meet difficulties. 
In summary, I prefer the dry season to the wet season because of the convenient 
things that I have told you.
4. Do you think the computer is a useful tool? How is it useful?
I think that computers are very useful for our life in many ways. First, computers 
help us work conveniently and quickly. When we enter data and orders into a 
computer, we can get expected results almost immediately. Next, computers are 
useful for our study. Nowadays, with a computer connecting to the internet, we can 
learn a lot of things all over the world. Moreover, computers are also wonderful 
means of entertainment. With media soft-wares, we can enjoy all kinds of films, plays 
and music. Last of all, computers can serve as neat storages. On a computer we can 
store a lot of documents and memorial photographs safely for a long time. In short, 
computers have been improving our life and work better and better. 
5. What’s your favorite means of transportation? Why do you like it?
My favorite means of transportation is the bicycle because of its conveniences. 
First, bicycling helps you save money. To buy a car or a motorbike, you must pay 
plenty of money, but you spend much less money to buy a bicycle. Also, while you 
must pay for gasoline to use vehicles having engines, a bicycle requires no money 
for gasoline at all. On the other hand, bicycling is good for your health. You sit 
still as riding a motorbike, but with a bicycle, you surely have chances to do body 
exercises regularly, keeping you healthier and healthier. Last but not least, bicycles 
contribute to protect environment. Smokes from engines pollute the air day after day; 
bicycling produces no pollution, making our atmosphere fresh and clean. The above-
mentioned explain why I like bicycling most. 
6. Do you have any problems in learning English? How do you overcome them?
When I learn English, I meet many difficulties in speaking and listening. As 
for speaking skill, I can not speak English well. My tongue is stiff. There are so 
many English sounds that I can’t pronounce English correctly. Besides, I have no 
English language environment. These obstacles prevent me from speaking English 
well. As for listening skill, I can’t listen to English well, either. Owing to my bad 
English pronunciation, I can’t understand much when the others speak English to me. 
Furthermore, linking words is another problem for me because I am not familiar 
with it. My bad ability of speaking and listening to English makes me find it very 
terrible when I encounter this subject.
However, I have got some ways to overcome difficulties in speaking and listening 
to English. As for speaking, I will spend much more time to practise with my friends 
and even with myself. I will drill my pronunciations and ask for my English teacher’s 
advice. As for listening, I will increase my time for listening to English as well as 
learn experience from other people. I am optimistic that, my speaking and listening 
skills will be improved soon.
7. Tell about how to keep healthy.
There are many ways to keep our health. First, we should eat nutritious food 
moderately such as meat, eggs, and vegetables. Second, we should drink nutritious 
beverage such as milk, wine. Moreover, we should do morning exercises regularly. 
Thanks to doing body exercises every morning, we can lower the level of cholesterol 
in our bodies and make the organs in our bodies work well. In addition, we should 
also keep our mind relaxed since stressed moods always negatively affect our health. 
At last, we should help other people in need. The more we help the others, the more 
we want to be healthy to enjoy the happiness and meaningfulness of our life. To sum 
up, there are many ways to keep our health if we really pay attention to it
8. Where do you prefer living? city or countryside?
According to me, I prefer living to a city because it brings me many advantages. 
First, big cities bring me many good educational opportunities because educational 
institutions always locate in urban areas. In contrast, the countryside gives me no 
chance to attend higher education. Similarly, it is always easier to find a job in a city 
than in the countryside because industries and services concentrate in urban areas and 
attract all kinds of laborers. Meanwhile, labor markets in the countryside develops 
slowly and thus it is very difficult to apply for a job there. Moreover, big cities still 
give us conveniences of the modern life. On the contrary, rural areas are slow, 
backward before the progress of human civilization. All in all, the reasons that I 
have told you keeps me always loving to live in big cities.

In my house, I like the living-room best because that is the place actively 
influencing my family. First, the living-room is where my family get together every 
evening to enjoy the cozy family atmosphere. At that moment, we often watch TV, 
my parents give us advice, and we always chat with one another very merrily. Also, 
the living-room is where we welcome visitors and guests. In my house, it is the ideal 
place to receive everybody and they always feel happy and comfortable to be in 
there. Moreover, the living-room is the best place to relax. It is the place that is best 
equipped, so we always feel pleasant and peaceful there when we have any mental 
problems. To sum up, the living room is the place that always brings us positive 
things in our life.
11. Tell an experience that you never forget.
I never forget the moment that I received the news of my passing the university 
entrance examination. When I saw my name on the list of passers, I felt so happy 
that I was going to burst into tears. My parents were also very glad. They gave 
me compliments, and showed me how they were pleased about my examination 
result. My relatives and my friends offered me congratulations. At that time, it 
seemed that I had been the apple in everybody’s eyes. I felt very proud of my self 
and everybody felt proud of me, too. That is the sweetest memory that I have 
experienced in my life so far.
12. Which places in Vietnam do you think are the most interesting for visitors 
from other countries
In my view, two most interesting places that visitors should come in our country 
are Ha Long Bay and Phu Tu Island. Ha Long Bay is a beautiful landscape in 
Northern Vietnam. That is where there are thousands of strange-shaped islands and 
limestone grottoes of all sizes covering a large sea zone in the Gulf of Tonkin. The 
sea there is very calm while the sky above is often clear and bright, making the whole 
panorama of Ha Long Bay strangely attractive and full of poetry. Similarly, Phu Tu 
Island is really a beautiful scenery of Southern Vietnam. It locates in Hon Chong 
area of Kien Giang Province. There, you will see a wonder of nature: two high 
masses of stone, a big one and a small one, growing from a natural pedestal on the sea 
surface like a father and a son watching over the sea day and night. Phu Tu Island is 
the emblem of Kien Giang Province. However, the Island of Phu has been collapsed 
recently due to a sudden weather incident and the authorities of Kien Giang Province 
are planning to restore it as it used to be. Subjectively speaking, the two sites that I 
have told you are the best to visit in this country. 
13. How do you spend your weekends?
At weekends, I often spend time for my favorite activities. On Saturday evening, 
I often go watching films in a café alone or with some of my friends. If I don’t 
watch films, I play cards with my roommates and chat about all things that we can 
imagine and go to bed very late. On Sunday morning, I also get up late to relax 
since my busy study from Monday through Friday always makes me tired. Besides, 
at weekends, I often buy delicious food to enjoy and to nourish my body. On Sunday 
afternoon, I do nothing but relax and listen to music or watch TV. Every once 
a month, I return to my homeland to visit my parents, my brothers and sisters, 
my relatives and to ask my parents for money as well. As these routines happen 
repeatedly, I am always happy and pleased with weekends I have enjoyed so far.
14. Talk about your daily routine. What are you activities in a normal day?
My days are always busy and the same. My day begins very early in the 
morning. I usually get up a 4.30 am. After having got up, I clear my bed, clean my 
face, brush my teeth and do morning exercises. At about 5.30, I wash my dirty clothes 
and take a bath. I often have breakfast at 6.30. After having had breakfast, I prepare 
my books and notebooks, and go to school. I study at school from 7.00 am to 11.00 
am. At noon, I get home at 11.00 and prepare for lunch. I usually finish my lunch 
at 11.50 and then I rest and take a nap. In the afternoon, I often learn in the library 
from 1.30 pm till 4.30 pm. After that I go to market to buy food for dinner. I usually 
finish cooking for dinner at about 5.30 and have dinner until 6.00 pm. In the evening, 
from 6.00 pm to 7.00 pm, I often take a rest, read newspapers, and listen to music. 
From 7.00 pm to 9.30 pm, I am self-taught in the school library. I usually get to my 
living-place at about 9.45. After that, I go to bed. I often sleep until 4.30 am of the 
next morning when a new day of mine begins. Although my daily routine is busy, I 
am very pleased with it. That’s all.
15. What do you like and dislike?
I like helping my friends because when I do something good for the others, I 
receive new exhilaration, making me feel more interested and happier. First, 
each help that I have given to a friend brings me a lovely memory. The friend 
receiving my help often offers me a special attention in our friendship. Second, 
helping my friends makes my life meaningful. The more I do good things for 
everybody, the more I feel proud of my existence in this life. Moreover, helping 
friends also means helping yourself. Everybody sees your good heart and thus it is 
sure that they will not forsake you when you fall in difficulties. It is the immediate 
benefits that I have told you make me fond of helping my friends.
I hate telling a lie because it brings many dangers. Firstly, telling a lie make 
everybody not respect us. We know that telling a lie is not good. When we do so, 
it means that we do not respect ourselves and thus other people also do not respect 
us. Secondly, telling a lie negatively affects our jobs. When everybody doesn’t trust 
us, it is really difficult for us to deal with partners in our business. Thirdly, telling a 
lie unintentionally hurts our kin people. They are surely very shameful when other 
people know that they are kin to liars like us. It is the bad effects in such a chain 
that I do not like telling a lie at all.
16. Talk about your last holiday. When? Where? What? And how?
My most recent holiday is the trip to Hon Chong two months ago. That trip was 
at weekends. On that Saturday morning, my friends and I departed very early by 
motorbike. We rode non-stop from Long Xuyen to Rach Gia city where we stopped 
for 30 minutes to relax. We spent approximately one hour to go around Rach Gia 
city. At about 11.00 am, we began to head to Hon Chong. We arrived at Hon Chong 
at about 3.30. On that afternoon, we rent a room in a hotel in Hon Chong to stay 
overnight. From 4.30 pm to 5.30 on that same day, we went taking a sea bath. After 
that, we went back to our hotel to take a bath with fresh water and have dinner. In 
the evening, we ate seafood in a small restaurant by the sea and enjoyed the romantic 
nightfall scenery for 2 hours. We went to bed at 10.30 pm in that night. When the 
dawn of the next day came, we visited Hang Pagoda, Tu Island (which used to 
be named Phu Tu Island but the Phu Island has collapsed recently due to a natural 
incident). At 9.30 on Sunday morning, we left Hon Chong for home. We got back 
to Long Xuyen at 4.00 pm via Vam Ray Ferry, and Tri Ton’s roads. 
17. Tell about one kind of sports that you like.
I like playing badminton best because this sport is not only easy to play but 
also good for health. Badminton is simple to play. You only need to have a racket 
of about 60.000 dong. In a game, there are two players. These players will beat the 
shuttlecock toward each other. The loser is the one that misses shuttlecock at the last 
turn. On the other hand, your health can be improved from playing badminton. This 
kind of sport makes our body always have to move with high frequency. Therefore, 
it is very effective for you when you want to do physical exercises. It is these two 
reasons that I like playing badminton very much. 
18. What are your hobbies?
I like traveling very much because it not only relaxes my mind, widens my 
knowledge, but also brings me many new friends. First, I always feel happy when 
traveling. Enjoying beautiful scenery everywhere, though natural or man-made, is the 
most effective pill to heal my mental diseases. Besides, I can learn many interesting 
things from traveling. The more we travel, the more we know about the world 
around us, which considerably contributes to our understandings. In addition, we 
can have interesting relationships when we travel to somewhere. Sudden friendships 
coming with us in our trips brings us sweet memories and warm feelings everywhere, 
making us not feel lonely or strange anywhere we come and visit. Briefly speaking, 
traveling is important and essential part of my life.
19. Introduce yourself and your background.
My family is an extended family, consisting of my parents, my brothers, my 
sisters and me. My father is 65 years old. He used to be a teacher of mathematics 
in Long Xuyen High School. At present, he has retired. My mother is two years 
younger than my father. She is a housewife. My eldest brother is 39 years old. He

happy.
