Topic 23 : Vietnamese teenagers these days go crazy for their idols

In this day and age, many people claim that young people have great admiration for their
idols although they are not perfect role model to follow. This trend can be seen in many
countries, especially among teenagers, but in Viet Nam, it seems to be very strong .In my
opinion, this problem has both positive and negative aspects and the following essay takes a
look at both sides of the argument. Let’s start with pointing the drawbacks that it brings back.
Firstly, young adult who are not mature enough to judge what is suitable and proper within their
society is strongly influenced by well-known entertainment star’s behavior and fashion. For
example, few years ago, entertainment of Korean attacked into Vietnam, many young people
started to follow and catch up fashionable trend of Korean singer by various ways. Secondly, it
makes Vietnamese teenagers distract their study and become uncontrollable for mentality. For
example, the young fans roared and hustled each other in order to clearly observe their idol at
any cost is unacceptable thing. However, it also has its positive aspect, some celebrities are
good example to study and follow about their admirable action such as helping poor people and
orphanage children, struggling to controvert social evils. In conclusion, admiring well-known
stars in the field of entertainment is not completely negative if we know how to balance it.
Topic 24 : The importance of knowing how to swim
Swimming is one of the most important life skills and is a recommendable sport in
practical aspects for people of all ages .Therefore, the advantages of knowing how to swim is
undeniable. First and foremost, swimming is not only a sport but also is a survival skill to
prevent from drowning. The more chances to go near the water you get, the more possibilities
to fall into the water there are. Secondly, swimming is a healthy form of exercise so it makes us
stay healthy and balanced. If we hold your breath repeatedly, your lung and heart will get
stronger and healthier. Swimming uses all the major muscle, so it increases muscle power and
the level of physical activities, and it also helps to keep joints flexible, especially in the neck
and shoulders. Last but not least, swimming is a fantastic and versatile activity that can be done
all year round at any circumstances and is considered as a competitive sport or as a recreational
activity with friends and family. In my opinion, I strongly agree with the huge importance of
knowing how to swim
