I live with my parents in the suburbs of BK city. My house is a three-storey building which is designed very simply with
a garage and painted with cream. Especially, it is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There are one living room, four bedrooms and one dining room attached to the cozy kitchen. The entrance of the house has many different trees and flowers. They were grown by my father and are cultivated every day by him. In the living room, there are some timbered furnitures, some pictures about family and natural life on the wall. Next is the kitchen connecting with the dining room. In the kitchen, there is a refrigerator, a electric stove and sink. In the middle of the dining room is a spotless woody table. On the second floor are three bedrooms are adjacent to each other. The thing I like most about my house is the living room. It is always very fascinating for me to watch tv and talk about our day with my parents and we always have lovely moments together. 2. Location of a province. For a couple of years, I have been live and study in Thai Nguyen province. It is a mountainous, midland province in the Northeast of Vietnam with a natural land area of 3600 square kilometers and a population of 1,3 million as of 2019. Thai Nguyen borders six provinces BK to the North; VP, TQ to the West; LS, BG to the East and HN to the South. Thai Nguyen is considered to be famous for green tea and metallurgical industry. Moreover, Samsung Electronics has their largest factory in TN, employing over 6,000 people. The city also well knows about special food, for instance: banh chung, banh giay, tea,... The people in TN are very kind and friendly, they always help together. 3. A famous person. Nguyen Thanh Tung (born July 5, 1994), known professionally as Son Tung M-TP, is a Vietnamese singer-songwriter and actor. Born and raised in Thai Binh, Thai Binh Province, Tung's family discovered his singing ability when he was two years old. He started to write music in 2012, his self-written singles, "Con mua ngang qua" and "Em cua ngay hom qua" launched his career. These were followed by successful singles, for instance "Lac troi" in 2017, "Chay ngay di" in 2019. To have the success today, he also went through many difficulties. When he first started his career, he encountered a lot of rumors about copyright. However, at that time, he chose to be quiet and used his ability to prove that what people said was wrong. And he managed to do it. Although being at the peak of his career, he always keeps his manners and still shows great respect for his seniors. This is what makes me admire him even more. He devoted all of his talent and youth to music. I believe that Son Tung M-TP is not only my idol but also of many others. 4. Good and bad points of living in a tower block. Living in the tower block has many advantages. Firstly, people who live in high-rise buildings have a sense of happiness. Thanks to public facilities such as garden, swimming pool and function rooms; people can go to the garden to relax and it also a good chance for them to get acquaintance with apartment dweller. Secondly, the relationship among the dwellers can be built easily and there is no one who becomes lonely. For everyone who is keen on making communication with strange people, this opportunity can increase the knowledge about the character and behavior of the neighbor by arranging a meeting or cooking together on the weekend, for example. However, high-rise building has its disadvantages. You need to rely on elevators. If they break down its a long way to walk up the stairs to the top floor. During a real fire or even fire drills you must take the stairs, not the elevators. If you are very high up, like above 20 floors, you can sometimes feel the building sway in bad winds. Pets are not permitted in tower blocks. 5. Good and bad points of living in the country. There are many good things about living in the country. The first is fresh air. Living in the country provides a breath of fresh air. The further away you get from the city, the cleaner the air becomes. Cleaner air means better breathing and smaller risk of illnesses and heart diseases. Second, life is slower and less demanding in the countryside: there are no hectic schedules, no urgent meetings, no social pressure, etc. You can slow down, shake off your anxieties, and focus on the things that really matter to you. Last but not least, the strong communal spirit is one of the greatest advantages of living in the countryside, people are kind and friendly to each other, supportive and helpful in times of need. However, living in the country has its disadvantages. Employment opportunities are much scarcer in rural areas than in cities, so it may be difficult to find a suitable job or follow your chosen career path in the countryside. You may have to settle for a job below your education level. Big Towns and cities have movie theaters, literary reading, music concerts and amusement parks for entertainment purposes. When you opt to stay in the country, you will find less of these activities there. 6. Good and bad points of living in the city. There are many good things about living in the city. Firstly, you will have more job opportunities. A city full of companies is a city full of career opportunities. Statistics also show that people in larger cities also find better employment opportunities than those in the suburbs or smaller towns. The second is public transportation. Cities have trains or subways, buses, and plenty of taxis and ride sharing drivers so you can get where you need to go. Many public transportation options such as the bus and train are very affordable and free you of the hassle of driving.The biggest events such as sporting events, concerts, festivals, and art openings happen in major cities. You can catch a concert or a baseball game without the long drives to and from the suburbs. However, living in the city has its disadvantages. The higher cost of living is the first disadvantage that people typically think of living in a city. Major cities always have a higher cost of living than the surrounding suburbs. Some cities will have higher crime rates than other, but you can definitely count on these urban areas to be more dangerous than smaller towns. More people = more crime. Big city life cannot be discussed without mentioning about pollution. Smog, high carbon emission rate, polluted drinking water and high decibels of noise are some of the reasons for air, water and noise pollution in the city. Also, the increased number of motorized transports and waste from the large population are other sources of pollution. Waste disposal and solid waste management are added disadvantage of a big city. 7. Better city in the future. The future of cities will come hand in hand with innovation. There will be smarter city. Firstly, I think the roads will be more widened as well as there will be a plenty of modern public transports. For instance: metro, self-driving car,... Because of these reasons, we will be ableto reduce traffic jams and accidents. Secondly, the city will be friendly with nature. More trees and flowers will be grown everywhere, deforestations will disappears and the endangered species will be protected thoroughly. Instead of burning fossil fules for energy, people will use alternatives like the wind and solar power to reduce air pollution and water pollution. Last but not least is thelife of city dweller With companies ruling the city skyscrapers, it’s pretty hard not to find a job. Employees will get higher salaries 8. Student's life problems and solutions. For a couple of years, I have been live and study at TN, it's my first time being away from home, so I have to face many problems. The biggest problem is adjustment to new life. The first year of university is always extra hard when it comes to adjustment to university life, so I got a culture shock because of how different things compared to home or high school. You need to give yourself some time and expect to get a little bamboozled, but always stay confident that eventually you will come to love the university life.Second, homesickness can strike very hard. However, thanks to the modern means of communication, most students feeling homesick can stay connected with their parents, family members and friends over the internet. Time management is also a big problem. If you find yourself struggling to meet deadlines, or you feel overwhelmed with work, you need to work on your time management skills. This means becoming more organised, keeping a list of what needs to be done and by when, balancing between studying and relaxing, don't go to bed lately, do more exercise...
9. Cities problems and solutions.
There are some difficulties of living in a city. The one reason is that the cost of living is likely to be much higher than it is in a small town or village. The cost of education, treatment, food,... are far higher in a city, especially housing is very expensive. Another reason is that pollution in cities is becoming the severe issue. Overload of transports lead to the presence of carbon and other toxic elements in the air. As a result, city life can be unhealthy and stressful. I believe that government can tackle these issues by many steps. Firstly, the government should control the prices of the daily commodities and build more high rising building to reduce the house rent. For example, government build more social house for people who have a low salary or worker. Secondly, the government should promote the use of cleaner public transports. It would help to reduce air pollution and traffic jams Finally, government should encourage industries and businesses to relocate to the suburban areas. .
