CÂU TRẢ LỜI MẪU CHO PHẦN SPEAKING PART 1
Chủ đề Home
Do you live in a house or a flat?
- I live in a house which is located on the outskirts of a small town. I’ve lived there for almost 5 years with my parents.
Which is your favourite room?
- Probably the sitting room. To be honest, we all spend most of our time in the sitting room because it’s the cosiest room in our house.
Can you describe it?
- Well, it’s not particularly large but even so, it feels quite spacious. There are two huge comfy sofas, an open fire which we light in the dark winter months and on the walls there are some rather beautiful oil paintings of country scenes from the area where we live. It’s quite a pretty room, lots of natural light.
If you could improve one thing in your house, what would it be?
- Well, if I could change just one thing, I’d probably choose to change my bedroom. At present it’s rather small with almost no view at all. If I could alter it in any way, I would enlarge it to have a private study area, where I could do some work, and I would improve the view by planting some lovely trees and shrubs outside the window. I think being able to sit at a window and see nature is really important.
Chủ đề Film
Do you enjoy watching films?
- Oh yes, I’m a bit of a film fanatic actually. I watch films most weekends and quite often during the week as well. I much prefer films to TV programs.
What kinds of films do you like most?
- I really like a wide variety of film genres. But if I had to choose a type of film. I’d say I mainly go for suspense, psychological thrillers. In fact some of my favourite films are the old Hitchcock films – he really was the master of suspense.
Did you watch much TV as a child?
- No, I didn’t. My parents encouraged us, my brothers and me, to spend out time outdoors rather than sitting inside watching TV. So we only ever had the chance to watch TV for an hour each evening before we went to bed. I can’t say it was very common because most of my friends watched loads of TV.
Are foreign language films popular in your country?
- No, they’re not really that popular compared to domestic films. I mean there are some Asian films from India and China, as well as some films from Europe but I think having to read the subtitles puts people off watching them. It’s a shame really because I think it’s important for people to watch more foreign language films in order to learn more about other cultures.
Chủ đề Greeting People
How would you greet someone who was visiting your house?
- Well, I’d probably welcome them into the house and offer them a cup of tea. That’s usually the way it’s done in my country. We don’t really have any formal way of welcoming people.
Would you greet an old friend and a stranger in the same way?
- No, definitely not. If it’s a close friend who I’ve known for a long time, I give them a hug, but if it’s just a stranger I would either shake hands with them or just say “Hello, nice to meet you” and nothing more.
How do you meet new people?
- I mainly meet new people through friends. Whenever I have dinner with a friend there’s nearly always someone there that I haven’t met before and that’s how I usually extend my circle of friends.
Do you think first impressions are important?
- Oh yes. From the first time you set eyes on someone, you already form some kind of an opinion about them, about their lifestyle, their background or what kind of person they might be. That’s why I always think it’s really important to give a good impression when you meet someone for the first time.

Chủ đề A Holiday You Recently Had
Bạn nên nói về: Nơi bạn đến, bạn đi cùng ai, bạn đã tham gia những hoạt động gì ở đó và điều gì làm bạn cảm thấy chuyến đi thú vị.
I’d like to talk about a holiday that I took to the coast of England just two months ago. I went to a small village in a coastal region called Cornwall. It’s really well known for its dramatic coastal scenes, stunning landscape and also for its tasty food. I went with my parents who had never been to this area of England before. They’d always wanted to go but just never had the chance because of work commitments. Anyway, Cornwall is quite far from where we live so we decided what it would be better to fly there rather than take the car. The roads and traffic are notoriously bad in that part of England. On our arrival, when we first got to the village, we found our way to the cottage we had booked which overlooked the sea. I can’t tell you how gorgeous it was there. It was just lovely. The windows of my room overlooked a little harbour and I could see all the boats coming in and out and all the seagulls flying around.
We spent most of our holiday sightseeing. We visited all the local towns and villages and tried most of the local delicacies such as fresh crab and lobster. My father is a keen fisherman so he did a bit of fishing while my mother and I relaxed in little cafes somewhere just chatting with locals. It was so relaxing.
I think the thing I remember the most about the holiday was just how friendly and welcoming all the locals were. It felt like home from home. By the time we’d finished the two-week holiday, we had made loads of friends and I’m sure we’ll al keep in touch. If I ever get the chance to go back, I’d love to go and possibly stay longer, maybe for a few months. There’s still so much of the countryside that we didn’t explore, so there’ll still be plenty to see when we return.

- If you had the chance to travel anywhere, where would you go?
That’s really difficult for me to answer because there are so many places I’d like to go to. But I suppose, if I had to pick a place, I’d choose India mainly because of the incredible landscape and also because of the fascinating culture there. I always like to go to countries which have a rich culture steeped in history and India certainly has that. I think I’d be blown away by the colours, the sounds, and the aroma of amazing food and by the local people. I’ve heard that the locals are very welcoming and hospitable to foreigners. I think going to India would be a-dream-come true for me.
- Why do you think some people like to travel alone?
Well, I suppose one reason could be that when you travel alone, you are completely free to do exactly what you want. You don’t need to consider anyone else when you’re planning your itinerary or when you change it. It can be quite annoying not to be able to do exactly what you want when you’re on holiday. Also, another reason why some people might prefer travelling alone is that it’s easier to make friends and meet people. What I mean is, other people are so much more likely to start chatting to you when you’re on your own than if you are already with someone. So, travelling on your own can be more exciting and more interesting.
- Do you think travel has changed much over the last few decades?
Yes, I do. It’s changed beyond all recognition really. In the past, only wealth people were able to travel, not only because of the expense but also because of the time it took to travel long distances – you know it could sometimes take days to go from one culture to another. They would either have to travel over land or by sea. Nowadays, of course, there are budget flights all over the world and anyone can afford to travel. Travel has become so cheap that sometimes it’s even cheaper to travel abroad than in your own country. So, not only it is easier to travel, it is also more accessible to the average person.
- How does travel change people?
I guess it changes people in a number of different ways. For the individual traveller, it gives them a chance to learn about how other people live and other cultures. This helps them to become more tolerant and accepting of differences, which is really important nowadays in a time when there is so much tension between cultures and religions. Also travel can affect the local cultures a lot. What I mean is, it brings foreigners to more remote places in the world where previously there was little outside contact. This can change the way they earn money and the type of work they do as instead of doing traditional jobs, they focus more on making money from the tourist industry. I think that’s quite worry actually, because if there’s a sudden drop in the number of people travelling, local cultures will suffer as a consequence.
- Do you think there are any disadvantages to modern travel?
Yes, for sure. I think the main drawback is of course pollution, air pollution. Because there are so many budget flights these days, it has really increased the number of people travelling by plane and the number of flights each day. This has led to serious problems with air pollution which affects the entire world not just the country with the most flights. So I think this is a major worldwide problem and really needs to be addressed either by reducing the number of flights or finding a cleaner energy source. Another disadvantage is that people are able to move so easily from one country to another that they almost forget their culture in a new country. I mean, if you take Thailand as an example, many tourists are so busy just having fun and doing what they want, that they forget they are in a relatively traditional culture and they act and dress inappropriately. I think that really is quite a disadvantage of modern travel.
