Who is the most confident person you know?

the answer from Jane Bennet in Pride and Prejudice novel.

“In my experience, I find that confidence can manifest in various ways. My sister Elizabeth possesses a confidence in her convictions and manner of speech that I greatly admire. She approaches life with a certainty and strength that I, at times, find myself envying. However, I believe true confidence also lies in the ability to see goodness in others and to hold oneself with grace and composure, which is something I strive for. Each person in my acquaintance has their own form of confidence, and I cherish the diversity of their qualities.”

Essay: Films and computer games which contain violence are very popular. Some people believe they have a negative effect on society and so should be banned. Other people, however, say they are just harmless and help people to relax. Discuss both these points of view and give your own opinion.

Dạng bài: opinion (Dựa vào cụm từ give your own opinion)

Mở bài

  • Nêu topic: Films and computer games which contain violence are very popular in today’s society.
  • Nêu 2 view cùa bài: However, they also spark a lot of controversy and debate about their effects on people’s behavior and attitudes. Some people believe that violent media should be banned because they have a negative impact on society, such as increasing aggression, desensitizing people to real violence, and promoting harmful stereotypes. (view 1) Other people, however, argue that violent media are just harmless forms of entertainment that help people to relax, express themselves, and cope with stress.They also claim that violent media do not cause violence, but rather reflect the existing problems in society (view 2)
  • Kế hoạch viết bài: In this essay, I will discuss both these points of view and give my own opinion.

Thân bài

Body 1 (view 1)

 Topic sentence (main idea 1): In the first place, it is undeniable that violent media are very appealing to many people, especially young people who enjoy the thrill, excitement, and challenge of these forms of media

support 1: Violent media can also provide a way for people to vent their frustrations, emotions, and fantasies in a safe and controlled environment.

Main idea 2 : violent media can have some positive effects on people’s cognitive and social skills, such as improving their problem-solving abilities, hand-eye coordination, teamwork, and creativity

support 2: banning violent media would deprive people of these benefits and limit their freedom of choice and expression.

…….

Body 2 (view 2)

Topic sentence (main idea 1): it is also evident that violent media can have some negative effects on people’s psychology and behavior.

Support 1: For instance, violent media can increase people’s aggression, hostility, and impulsivity by exposing them to unrealistic and exaggerated scenes of violence that can desensitize them to real violence and make them more likely to imitate or accept violent behavior as normal or acceptable.

Main idea 2: Furthermore, violent media can reinforce harmful stereotypes and prejudices about certain groups of people, such as women, minorities, or foreigners, by portraying them as victims or enemies that deserve to be harmed or killed.

Support 2: This can lead to discrimination, hatred, and violence in real life. Therefore, banning violent media would protect people from these harms and promote a more peaceful and tolerant society.

Kết bài:

  • Tóm tắt lại ý chính và nêu quan điểm của bản thân: In conclusion, I think that violent media have both positive and negative effects on society and individuals. However, I believe that the negative effects outweigh the positive ones and that violent media should be regulated or restricted to prevent or reduce their harmful impacts. I think that people should be more aware of the consequences of consuming violent media and choose more constructive and positive forms of entertainment that can enrich their lives and society.

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.

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.
