Bài mẫu pie chart

The two pie charts illustrate the distribution of household expenses (sự phân bổ chi tiêu gia đình) in the United Kingdom in 1990 and 2010. The categories of expenditure include housing, transportation, food, and other expenses.

Overall, there were notable changes (sự thay đổi đáng kể) in the spending patterns of UK households over the two decades. Housing and food expenses saw a decrease (nhìn thấy một sự giảm) , while transportation costs increased significantly.

In 1990, the largest portion of household spending was on housing, accounting for 35% (chiếm 35%) of the total expenditures. However, by 2010, there was a considerable decline (sự giảm mạnh) in spending on housing, dropping to 25%.

The second most significant expense in both years was food, representing 25% of household spending (chiếm 25% chi tiêu gia đình) in 1990. Nevertheless, by 2010, there was a notable reduction in food expenses, which accounted for only 20% of the total.

In contrast, transportation expenses witnessed a remarkable increase (tăng rất mạnh) over the two decades. In 1990, only 15% of household spending was allocated (phân bổ) to transportation, whereas in 2010, this figure rose significantly to 30%.

Other expenses, including leisure, education, and healthcare, remained relatively stable (duy trì ở mức tương đối ổn định) at 25% in 1990 and experienced a marginal decrease (sự giảm nhẹ) to 25% in 2010.

To conclude, the distribution of household expenses in the United Kingdom underwent notable changes between 1990 and 2010, with a significant decrease in housing and food spending, and a substantial increase (sự tăng mạnh) in transportation costs.

Describe a child

Today I would like to tell you about a child who is my cousin. His name is Lam, but I always call him by his nickname Monkey. Everyone calls him Monkey because he is very active and agile. I used to see him very often, but recently I have been busy with studying, so I have not met him for weeks. Monkey is 8 years old now. He is really adorable with big eyes and rosy cheeks and I really like his smile because it makes him look like an angel. He used to be very naughty when he was three or four years old. He cried for hours until he got what he wanted, but now he is more obedient. I guess maybe he thinks that he is not a child anyway, so he needs to behave well. He is quite an independent child. He doesn’t need his parents to tell him what time to do homework or what time to go to bed, he does all that on his own . I love this child very much because he is always so happy and optimistic. He gives me a positive energy when I’m with him. Whenever I drop by, he would give me a big hug and tell me his story at school. I really treasure those happy moments with my cousin. So, if I had to talk about a child I know, it would be my cousin.

Describe a film that you found really boring

Describe a film that you found really boring

You should say:

  • when you saw it
  • what type of film it was
  • what happens in the film
  • and explain why you found it so boring.

Outline:

  • last summer holiday, cinema, friends
  • horror movie named “the death of me” telling a couple traveling to the remote island and witnessing bizarre things
  • Many strange things happen like: They see a video in which the man kills and buries the girl, They lose their passport before returning home. The Woman saw her lover killing himself on the beach but no one believes her.
  • It is hard for viewers to differentiate whether the scene is hallucination or plot and what are their authentic experiences.

Presented by Thay Anh

Well, I have seen a lot of films and the film I watched at cinema with my friends last summer holiday named “the death of me” was really boring.

It is a horror film that tells a couple traveling to the remote island of Thailand in which they see many bizarre things. At first, they see a video on the man’s phone in which the man kill bury his lover. After that, they lose their passport before returning home, so they are trapped in the island. Next, The woman see her boyfriend cutting his belly on the beach but no one believes her.

I think that It was one of the most boring movies I have ever seen because it is hard for me ( as well as other viewers I guess) to follow the film like the differences between hallucination and plot are unclear. Furthermore, It is confusing to know my authentic experiences after watching the movie.
