Writing practice: Unit 1: Space Tourism
Discuss the potential consequences of an asteroid impact on Earth. You
should write at least 200 words.
Asteroids are known that are rocky objects revolving around the Sun and
they are too small to be called planets. However, their destruction is not as small
as their size. If the asteroid hits the Earth, it will cause numerous results
(consequences/ impacts/ damages) that require humans for long-term preparation.
Firstly, rocks from asteroids launch onto Earth at a strong and high speed,
which leads to enormous explosions which lead to dust and smoking around the
surface. Moreover, some scientists and professionals predict that this explosion is
bigger than other bombs in World War in the past. Secondly, minor planets will
burn things surrounding them, and cause wide-world destruction such as
earthquakes, forest fires, and volcano eruptions because of the increasing
temperature. Secondly, a huge number of animals can be in danger of extinction.
For instance, in trillion centuries ago, almost precious Mammoths and Dinosaurs
were disappeared despite their large population around the Earth, and they used
to dominate the other animals. Thirdly, humans are the main factors that are
affected by minor planets. They will lose their environments and face difficulties
when everything is destroyed. There is no fresh water, food, or house to survive
and people will learn how to start their lives like their ancients.
It is unpredictable to guess what the Earth will look like in the future if
there is a sudden asteroid, so people should find out about other planets for prevention.
Writing Practice: Unit 2: Social media
Some people believe that social media has brought many positive impacts to
their users. Others think that they will lead to negative consequences.
Discuss both views and give your opinion. Minor ~ marginal
It is believed that social media users have many positive influences on their
lives. However, in another aspect, some people think social network causes
negative results. I agree with the idea that humans receive major advantages
compared to minor disadvantages from using these platforms. (Using social
media might pose minor disadvantages to internet users).
Social media allows humans to explore their curiosity, however, there are
some (minor/ little) risks that people may face up. Firstly, it is difficult to focus lOMoAR cPSD| 58137911
on homework or work if people open many tabs on their screens and their social
announcements. Secondly, as using online devices is getting popular around the
world, there are some insecure pages made by hackers to take the information
from users. This is an extremely dangerous behaviour of the hackers, so they can
break into the telephone suddenly and lock all applications from their black
screen. The users do not know anything until they lose everything and they cannot
catch the thieves because of non-identification. However, some companies hire
hackers to find their secure gaps to protect consumers and employees from stolen
information. Việc dùng mạng xã hội đã trở nên nghiêm khắc hơn và có nhiều

Social media brings major benefits/ Netizens, on the other hand, could
experience major benefits from the development of social media. Main idea 1: Business Consumer
Social media is an “unctuous land” for exploring creative imagination,
especially for people who are artists. People can easily surf and choose which
platforms they can use for their products, and gain opinions from their
communities. Moreover, the media takes no fees for finding knowledge and
sources, but it requires people to be patient and consider their options
carefully, so they can learn how to receive the right documents. Next, surfing
social media can help people with entertainment, and release stress from
working. Researchers find out that the algorithm of Tik Tok or Instagram
platforms can predict a person favorite and suggest some suitable short videos
for users. Moreover, people can learn many useful tips and learn amazing
experiences from the influencers that can help young generation. Expose: bao phu

From my point of view, social media impacts mostly on human life.
Learning how to use social media beneficially is initial, so people can receive many advantages from them. Insecure: de bi ton thuong
Unsecure: dangerous, causes threats to others.
Nowadays, it is possible to move sea creatures from their natural habitat at
sea and have them relocated to amusement parks for people’s recreation. Do
you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?
Explain your reasons and support them with specific examples. lOMoAR cPSD| 58137911
It is an ideal project where animals from the ocean can be removed from
their natural living to amusement parks to recreate sea species by humans. I agree
with the opinion that sea creatures should be protected in theme parks.
On the one hand, it is difficult for these creatures to acquaint living in the
un-normal environment, as they have survived in equal for thousand years.
Firstly, It takes lots of money to create a condition like an ocean, and each of
species requires different temperatures, moisture, and the depth of the water.
Secondly, there is no evidence that their longevity in amusement parks is similar
to animals in real ocean, and it takes a huge time to find methods to protect these
species. However, some creatures are “easy-going” (suc chiu dung cao) which
they can live in any condition.
On the other hand, the world is standing out in extinction situations (in an
alarming rate/on the brink of extinction) and their environment is threatening,
which humans call action to maintain amount of sea animals. Firstly, building
more amusement parks can bring not only ocean knowledge but also human
awareness in front of hunting problems. Secondly, it is also an opportunity for
developing tourism, when schools choose these places for students to study
science and gain information to understand deeper about the ocean world.
Moreover, learning from reality can help humans remember easily and they
have more responsibility to protect the water environment in general.
Governments should build more amusement parks for people to raise
awareness to protect animals for recreation. Task 1;
The map describes the changes in an area between 1995 and present
Overall, in the North West area, houses today are upgraded much more than
houses in the past, and there is a new road between these houses has been
expanded. However, in the North East era, farmland was rebuilt to make a golf
course. Trees in the forest park were cut down and reconstructed for a tennis court
and there was a new house near the way. Now, a car park is built next to the hotel
which in 1995, this hotel did not have.
In the South East area, a café did not remove its location from 1995 until now.
However, the fishing port was totally deconstructed on the beach which made its
bigger than it used to be. The shops and fish markets were erased and replaced by
restaurants and apartments near the beach. Topic lOMoAR cPSD| 58137911
Some people think that occupations such as singers, actors, and other types
of artists are unimportant and unnecessary in society, especially when
compared with jobs like doctors or teachers. To what extent do you agree or
disagree? Write at least 200 words to explain your opinion. Celebrity endorsement
People working in the entertainment industry, in recent years, are
considered less important and necessary, whereas traditional careers such as
doctors or teachers are more important than artists. I would argue that artists
should receive respect from others.
Currently, the music or entertainment sector is recognized as a career in
which people can make their living. In fact, with the increasing demands of
celebrity endorsement, many huge companies and colleges are going to broaden
their artist training programs which leads to these jobs incredibly exploding. To
be an artist, the trainer needs to follow strict rules and learn by heart from their
syllabus to receive a practicing certificate like an engineer – who must have an
engineering degree. This will help the occupation market create numerous new
jobs and encourage people to work harder. Furthermore, we can see some idols
can live comfortably with their income as well as other careers.
Firstly, It is tedious to work in a workplace where musical and entertaining tools
do not exist. People need a balance between work and entertainment so their
physical and mental health can be ensured. Secondly, if doctors consult treatments
and teachers gain knowledge, the artists are the ones who uplift energy workers
after a hard-working day. They make inspirational songs and melodies to let other
people join their world; moreover, their songs can remind of occasions and
connect human souls, especially when they are upset and stressed. Last but not
least, listening to an adagio or tuneful song can relieve worry and make your mind lighter.
In conclusion, each occupation has different valuable impacts on our
society, especially with people working in the entertainment industry.
Exercise 2: )Problems/ Solutions
Mental health has recently been considered as a new t opic of public interest.
Psychologists claim that the growth of well-being
reflects directly on human lives, especially with the younger generations. In this
essay, I will point out its problems and address some feasible solutions. lOMoAR cPSD| 58137911
On the one hand, there are many reasons leading to poor mental health.
Firstly, Bereavement, who has a close connection with their family members, is
suffering from the loss of a loved one. No matter how good a life they have lived
before, they fall and get lost if their loves pass away. They might face a difficult
time in a few weeks or even months; even more, they get intense, huge sorrow,
and feel hopeless. Secondly, discrimination, including racism, is also a cause of
emotional health, especially with immigrants, exchange students, and ethnicity.
Discrimination appears when people are chronically treated differently, badly, or
unfairly. For instance, a depressed mother does not raise her children in a way for
the best performance in a child’s development, so the symptom of sadness and
anxiety result from the mistreatment of their cognition. The worst outlook can be
the children hating their families and tending to be violent to others.
On the other hand, psychological health is getting the attention around the world.
Thanks to technology, the government has a tool that is from AI power to gain
knowledge and make this usefulness popular to their citizens. This has helped in
making mental health support more accessible and widely known, and increasing
to the overall mental health of individuals. Moreover, the government can invest
in mental health services, such as clinics, hotlines, and online resources to ensure
that people can access easily to professional support. Last but not least, the
government can encourage some companies joining this field by giving them
supportive policies, and funding technologies and human resources.
In conclusion, keeping a balance between mental and physical health
should be focused. Creating a culture of empathy and understanding helps people
erase their fear and judgment.
