SPEAKING TOPICS

Topic 1: Talk about your favorite place to buy clothes. You should say:

- Well, my favorite clothing store is definitely "Nam fashion," located in the

heart of the city center. The last time I visited was just a few weeks ago
during their summer sale.
What I love most about Nam fashion is their diverse range of styles catering to
various tastes. From casual wear to elegant evening dresses, they have it all.
The ambiance of the store is quite inviting too, with bright lights and neatly
organized displays that make browsing a pleasure.
During my last visit, I ended up buying a couple of graphic tees, a pair of
distressed jeans, and a chic bomber jacket. The quality of their clothing
never fails to impress me, and the prices were reasonable, especially with the
discounts they were offering.
Overall, I'm always satisfied with my experiences at Nam fashion. The staff
is friendly and helpful, the selection is fantastic, and the quality of the items
is top-notch. It's definitely my go-to spot whenever I need to update my
wardrobe.

Topic 2: Talk about one of your bad habits.

Mẫu : One of my bad habits is excessive screen time, particularly spending

too much time on my phone or computer, especially before going to bed.
This habit often leads to various problems for me.

Firstly, excessive screen time negatively impacts my sleep quality. The blue
light emitted by screens can interfere with the production of melatonin,
making it harder for me to fall asleep and leading to disrupted sleep patterns.
As a result, I often wake up feeling groggy and unrested, affecting my
productivity and mood throughout the day.

Secondly, spending too much time on screens can also lead to decreased
productivity and procrastination. I often find myself getting sucked into
endless scrolling on social media or binge-watching videos, instead of
focusing on more important tasks or hobbies. This procrastination habit then
adds to my stress levels as deadlines approach and tasks pile up.

Furthermore, excessive screen time can have negative effects on my physical

health as well, leading to eye strain, headaches, and even posture problems
from slouching over devices for extended periods.

My family members have expressed their concern about my excessive

screen time habit. They've noticed how it affects my mood, productivity, and
overall well-being. They often encourage me to take breaks, go for walks, or
engage in activities that don't involve screens. While I appreciate their
concern and understand the importance of reducing my screen time,
breaking this habit has proven to be a challenge.

In conclusion, excessive screen time is a bad habit that I'm actively trying to
address. It's a constant reminder of the need to set boundaries and find
healthier ways to unwind and relax.
Topic 3: Talk about your favorite means of transport.

Mẫu: My favorite means of transport is my bicycle. I use it almost every day,

whether it's for commuting to work, running errands, or simply going for a
leisurely ride around my neighborhood.

It's a sleek, matte black hybrid bike with a lightweight aluminum frame and
ergonomic handlebars. The wheels are sturdy yet nimble, allowing for smooth
navigation through city streets and bike paths. It's equipped with a reliable gear
system that makes climbing hills effortless and cruising along flat roads a breeze.

What I love most about my bicycle is the sense of freedom and independence it
provides. Unlike other modes of transport, I'm not bound by schedules or traffic
congestion. I can weave through traffic, take scenic routes, and explore hidden
gems that are inaccessible by car or public transportation.

Cycling also offers numerous health benefits. It's a great way to stay active and
incorporate exercise into my daily routine without it feeling like a chore. Plus, it's
environmentally friendly, emitting zero emissions and reducing my carbon
footprint.

Moreover, cycling allows me to disconnect from the digital world and immerse
myself in the sights, sounds, and smells of my surroundings. It's a therapeutic
experience that helps clear my mind and rejuvenate my spirit, especially after a
long day at work.

Overall, my bicycle is not just a means of getting from point A to point B; it's a
lifestyle choice that brings me joy, health, and a deeper connection to the world
around me.

Topic 4: Talk about the place where you live.

Mẫu: I reside in a quaint town nestled in the countryside, surrounded by

sprawling fields and gentle hills. It's a relatively small town, with a close-
knit community where everyone knows each other.

Despite its size, my town is famous for its rich agricultural heritage. We're
 known for producing some of the finest fruits and vegetables in the region,
thanks to our fertile soil and favorable climate. Our annual harvest festival
attracts visitors from far and wide, eager to sample the bounty of our local
farms and enjoy the festivities.

In terms of weather, my town experiences the beauty of all four seasons.

Summers are warm and sunny, perfect for outdoor activities like hiking,
fishing, and picnicking by the river. Autumn brings a spectacular display of
colors as the leaves change, creating a picturesque backdrop for scenic
drives and leisurely strolls. Winters can be cold but enchanting, with
occasional snowfall turning the town into a winter wonderland straight out
of a postcard. And spring breathes new life into the landscape, with
blossoming flowers and fresh greenery signaling the arrival of warmer days
ahead.

The best thing about living in my town is the sense of peace and tranquility
it offers. Far from the hustle and bustle of city life, it's a place where time
seems to slow down, allowing residents to appreciate the simple pleasures of
nature and community. Whether it's attending local events, exploring nearby
hiking trails, or simply gathering with neighbors for a barbecue, there's
always a sense of warmth and camaraderie that makes my town feel like
home.

Overall, I feel grateful to live in such a picturesque and welcoming town,

where the beauty of nature is matched only by the kindness of its people

Topic 5: Talk about the last time you went to a party or celebration (a wedding, a
birthday party, etc.

Mẫu: The last party I attended was a birthday celebration for my cousin,
Nam. It was a casual gathering held at his backyard, with a cozy setup of
fairy lights and colorful decorations.

Since it was a laid-back affair, I opted for a comfortable yet stylish outfit. I
wore a pair of fitted jeans, a casual button-down shirt, and a lightweight
jacket, perfect for the evening breeze. I paired the outfit with sneakers for a
relaxed vibe that suited the outdoor setting.

The music playlist at the party was a mix of classic hits and contemporary
favorites. There were upbeat tunes playing in the background, creating a
cheerful atmosphere and setting the mood for dancing later in the evening.
Some guests even brought their instruments, leading to impromptu jam
sessions that added to the fun.

As for the food and drinks, there was a delicious spread of barbecue delights,
including grilled burgers, hot dogs, and chicken skewers. There were also
plenty of salads, sides, and dips to complement the main dishes. For drinks,
there were refreshing beverages like homemade lemonade, iced tea, and a
selection of beers and wines to quench our thirst.

Throughout the party, we indulged in good food, lively conversations, and

laughter-filled moments. It was wonderful to see Nam surrounded by family
and friends, celebrating another year of life and making memories together.
Overall, it was a memorable party filled with love, laughter, and delicious
food—a perfect way to honor and create lasting bonds with loved ones.
