Topic: In some countries, teenagers have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific reasons and details.

Many people think that teenagers should focus on their study and they should not have a job. However, I refute this idea. I strongly believe that jobs can provide teanagers with experience, let them know why they have to save money and help them be familiar with working environment.

Firstly, jobs can give students a lot of experience that is very useful for them in their future. For instance, they can teach a small group. This provides them not only experience about how to explain something clearly but also patience to help their students understand lessons. This is an advantage in their future teaching job. Another example is that teenagers can have a part-time job as a baby-sister. This kind of job does not take their time much but it give them a chance to take care of and play with young kids. Thus in the future when they have childrens they will know how to teach and play with them.

Secondly, with a job teenagers will know earning money is not easy, so they will save money. Nowadays many boys and girls waste their parents' money in buying new clothes which they never wear and useless parties. They spend money as if they would have how much they want. It is because these people never have to work to earn money so they think earning money is the easiest work in the world. Only do they have a job, they will know it is very hard to earn a little. That time they will learn why they need to save money.

Finally, a job helps teenagers be familiar with working environment. Many adult people found that working environment is very competitive and stressful. This take them a lot of time to familiar this environment. However, to teenagers who have jobs, competition or stress is not a big problem when they are adults. It is because they are familiar with them and they know how to manage stress, how to be good competitors. This help them be confident and do their job effectively.

In conclusion, jobs give students much useful experience, teach them saving money and help them be familiar with working environment. I totally believe that teenagers have jobs when they are students will be successful persons in the future.

Topic: Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Which point of view do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

Almost intellective works in our modern life require university degree or the other equivalent qualification. A question, which is set up is: If our time at university has no meaning, why do all the employers always choose it like the first priority? In my opinion, each of our school time has in owned role, so the university students should be required to attend classes because of some reasons below.

Firstly, training program at university is compiled by many experience teachers and professors so it can bring you a lot of the basic knowledge, acquainted circumstances and how to deal with them. Sometime you may think that all understanding is not necessary but in fact, it will help you not to be a fish out of water at your fist job. For example, in one competitive examination into a bank, there are some question like how many parts of balance sheet? Where does the stock’s income come from?... All that question would solve quickly if you usually attend class in university. In addition, knowledge is chain of studying, and if you absent from class in university, you may loose a lot of foundation learning. Further more, some people want to learn higher or become a teacher, or a professor of their main major, at that moment, university’s time becomes more important. That’s doubtless when no student want to come to class of an teacher who known that always absent from class before. He can’t teach anyone when he himself didn’t do the thing ^^

Secondly, being in class in the university is not just for taking the certification.Supposed the knowledge in book is just an theory, the class’s time still have ability to supply you real experience. In class, the teacher can share their experience that you may not find in any flashy book. Studying and doing exercises in group also bring you a good practicing of communication skills. All that exercise is not too difficult so you can solve it by yourself or learn how to do from your friends or your teacher. It’s sure that you’ll make progress if you spend more time for learning in class.

Last but not least, some student pleads boring of the class so that they wasting their time in bad work: They go out for drink, eating, chatting.... or even playing gamble. And who knows how many thing they can do when they are always absent from class? There are a lot of students who came abroad for studying, but in fact they didn’t study hard. They always absent from class, and it’s caused falling all the exams. No one can be sure that you’ll study or go out for play when you don’t attend class.

Even you are considered a genius, you still need to go to university. Bill Gates, one of the most successful and richest man in the world, absented from university at his third year for his starting up business. But in his life, he always regret about what he did. Therefore, he came back to university for studying seriously. That’s one more evidence why all the student shouldn’t waste their class time.

Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. In the modern life when university students can have a lot of activities outside of class and sometimes feel tired of coming to class everyday, they think that going to class as an option can be a solution. It is true that following the class schedule may take some efforts but it will repay you well. From my point of view, university student should be required to attend classes for their own good.

First of all, attending classes helps you create a habit of studying. The class schedule often gives you enough time to study and rest then you can obtain lessons in a best way. Moreover, it is easier for you to arrange your own time table with the class schedule. By that way, you can easily arrange time for other activities while still keeping up with your study.

Secondly, attending classes gives you chances to do experiment and research with best equipments and support from your tutor. Universities today is not only a place where students can study but also libraries, academies, workshops or laboratories which contain everything students need for their study. In addition, you can find a full support from your professors whenever you get into troubles. You can’t find anywhere other than university has such a good condition for your study

Last but not least, you can study, work, share your opinion and learn from others with other students in class. Everybody knows that group study and teamwork give you more advantage than studying by yourself. Accordingly, you can improve yourself much faster with your friends not only with your main major but also with teamwork skill, communication and more.

Finally, attending classes gives you more benefit than you thought. University provides you almost everything you need for your study and helps you easily obtain information. Anyway, how perfect the university education is, it's not the only source of information. there are many different way you can study like from the internet, social network or TV and if you want to have an entire view of any issue, you are encouraged to try any sources of information of which you think are nessecary

Topic 2: Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Which point of view do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

Many people think that university students have to go to classes. However, I oppose this idea, students should have an option that attending classes or not. I totally believe that students can gain knowledge from other sources beside classes. In addition they need to improve their self-learning ability and apply their knowledge in the real world.

Students can get a lot of knowledge from many sources such as books, internet, TV and other medias. Nowadays, these sources are very popular and easily assessible. They contain many updated information with many attitudes of authors. These sources help students widen their knowledge. Plus, students can compare information they get with lessons their professor provides in classes. This not only help them understand the content of lessons clearly but also update new information relating to lectures.

Apart from learning from sources beside classes, students should improve their self-learning. Self-learning not only provides students with an opportunity to be independent but also help them be more active in learning. If students only go to classes everyday to study, they will denpend on their professors and teaching assistants. They only do assignments that their professors ask and only know information that professors provide. This make them become inactive persons. This also their disadvantage when they find or do their future job.

Finally students need to apply knowledge they have in the real world. In my opinion this is a part of learning. When students practice what they learn can know what is the different between the theory and the reality. This help them know what they need to study further. If students is required to attend classes, they may not have time to practice what they learn. I think it is really bad students who only know theory. This can prevent them from promotion in their career in the future.

Ultimately, attending class is important but it should be optional for students. Students can get much of knowledge from books, internet and many other medias beside classes. And they need more self-learning time and pratice what they study in the real world.

Topic 1: "When people succeed, it is because of hardwork. Luck has nothing to do with success." Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your position.

Some people think that people achive success because they have luck. However in my opinion luck has nothing to relate directly to success. People obtain success because they work very hard. In addition, luck is

a part of hardwork. Finally success is a process, not a destination.

Only by working hard, people can be successful. For instace, a famous singer such as Michael Jackson can not achive many awards by luck. To obtain awards and praise from audience, he has to practice singing and dancing everyday and prepare carefully before performance. Like singers, atheletes also have to take exercises everyday. If they do not do so, they may get a small award but it is the last award they can get. An anthelete can not be considered successful if he only get one award.

In addition, luck is a part of hardwork. In other words, people have luck just because they work hard everyday and never give up. In our life, opportunities come to us everyday. However most of people can not catch these chances because their lack of abilities or they do not recognize them. Only people who work hard all day to heighten their abilities can catch these opportunities to achive success.

Finally, success is not a destination, I think it is a process. When a person decide to work hard to promise to achive something, he is going on the way of the success. Anyone who has luck can only finish a small part of this way and they can not go farther. Only person who is hard working and never give up can be on the way of the success all his life. In my opinion, only this kind of person can be considered successful person.

In conclusion, luck can not help people obtain the success as they want. It is because success is a process. Besides, luck is only a small part of hardwork and people can not be successful if they are not hardworking.

check it out guy !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys

DA, “Delta” book is required. U can buy it at Trang bookstore, we ve 8 CDs already so u can burn them for saving money.

I think u should meet 2 times a week. I’m available every night and from 3 pm on Monday, Thursday and Friday and the weekend. I suggest Thursday from 3pm to 5pm and Sunday from 2pm to 4.30pm. Did u suggest any place which must be low-priced, quiet and comfortable :D. Hey DA, could u take ur laptop with u ? We need the first meeting as soon as possible. I used to be a student of an insane teacher, mr manh, so I will give u some experience.

Writing has 2 parts, we re practicing one of them; another’s actually not easy at all because u must listen to a lecture that’s normally tough; then write an essay about the topic of the lecture +_+ I’m really stuck of it. So listening is a very very important skill in Toefl ibt, do serious hard work on it for that reason. Try to listen as much as possible, make a timetable for urself.

Reading is neither easy but the most difficult questions re usually related to synonymous words. This problem can be solved by the book named “Essential words for toefl”. Get it at Trang bookstore guys. Btw, we have another crazier problem, it drives me nut when trying to remember these weird words +_+. So we plan to learn 75 words equivalent to 5 lessons a week. It’s easy to forget, so we will turn round the book when we finish it. We will have a test of 45 words on the 1^st meeting day and 30 words on the 2^nd. Each of us will be responsible for preparing tests in turn.

Speaking has different parts, I will tell u later ^_^
but here is the schedule for independent task. Prepare carefully guys

The maximum for this task is 45 minutes. Don’t try to talk over time cause the machine will cut this part.

Topic: When people succeed, it’s because of handwork. Luck has noting to do with success. Do u agree or disagree with this statement?

 U had to spend over 10 years at school, a couple of years at university. However, after graduating, U still only got a salary from 150$ - 300$. So when will u get enough money for your owned car or a house...with that income ? Hardworking only make u to live in an easy circumstances but luck can bring you more than that ^^

If a person win in a lottery, which worth several billion of dollars, they’ll become millionaire only after one night. He get a big luck that cause jealousy of many other people with doing nothing. Earning money by luck always is dream of almost people, who spent not too little money on prize, poker, house – race... Or even when we was a child, didn’t know anything about treasure or power, we still desire fortune smile on us so that we can be married a pretty prince like in a fairy tale. It can not be deny that sometime luck can bring us to success as fast as unbelievable.

What would be happen if u studied hard in a long time before the exam and u got a bad sick right before that day? What could an athlete do with broken leg in an competition days? Would David Copperfield cry if he forgot all his important equipments right before going through The Great Wall, nomatter how many time of practicing? No one can say one of them were lazy with their works, but they could lost a chance of their lives simply just because of destiny. It’s no wrong when saying that sometime hardworking could lead us nothing.

However, what come easily, go easily. U’ve awarded a lot of things which don’t mean that u can keep all them with you forever. If u don’t work at least for managing ur money, mountain of property also will run away soon. None of millionaires don’t have to work hard, Bill Gates read hundred of books in a year since he was an students, music genius Mozart also spent over 30 years of his short life for working and even inherited wealthy like William prince still has to learn and work like any normal man.

Luck and hard work always go together. U can’t not be idle to wait God compassion, and u absolutely can’t win the destiny, too. Therefore, I’d like to working hard for my future, and also keep seeking a chance in my life.
