It is thought by some people that English, which is now the most widely spoken language in the world,
may one day predominate over all other languages and result in their eventual disappearance =>
PARAPHRASE

Having one language would certainly aid(facilitate) understanding and economic growth, but there will
also be some drawbacks. => STATE YOUR O[INION

BODY 1
One evident benefit of having one global language( speak the same language) is that it would enable
(helps) greater understanding between countries. => TOPIC SENTENCE 1 (ONE ADVANTAGE)

In other words, if everyone spoke one language, there would be complete understanding between not
only countries but all people throughout the world, which would promote learning, the flow of
information and ideas. => EXPLANTION

Another reason that one language would be advantageous is that it would help economic growth. =>
TOPIC SENTENCE 2 (ANOTHER ADVANTAGE)

With all people speaking the same language, there would be fewer barriers and therefore, trade would
flourish(thrive=develop well) between countries, resulting in a healthier world economy. =>
EXPLANATION

On the other hand, there are obvious disadvantages to having only one global language.=> CÂU
DẪN
Firstly, it would mean that all other languages would eventually disappear and, along with them, their
cultures. => TOPIC SENTENCE

The diversity of cultures is one of the joys this world has to offer. Each culture is unique with its own way
of life and own perspectives on the world, which would all be lost if there were only one language.=>
EXPLANATION

Secondly, it would result in the collapse of tourism because there would be no reason to travel for
pleasure and interest if all countries had the same language and similar cultures. => TOPIC SENTENCE

This would devastate many countries economically that rely on tourism as a source of income. =>
EXPLANTION

In conclusion, while there are plus points(merits=pros) to having one global language, too much would
be lost as a result. Maintaining local languages and cultures should be prioritised to ensure a rich world
heritage for future generations. => STATE OPNION AGAIN AND SUMMARISE KEY POINTS.

4. Computers are being used more and more in education. Discuss the advantages and
disadvantages and give your own opinion.

It is argued that technology is playing an increasing role in schools and universities. This essay will
firstly, discuss student freedom as one of the main advantages of this and secondly, outline
decreasing levels of face to face contact as one of the main disadvantages, followed by a reasoned
conclusion.
One of the principle(main) advantages of an increase in the use electronic devices in education is the
autonomy it provides students. Students have the freedom to focus on whatever topic or subject
they want and study it in depth through the internet. A prime example of this is the amount of
online university courses available to students, covering a myriad of subjects, that up until recently
were unavailable to most learners. This has resulted in more people studying third level degrees
than ever before, at a pace and schedule that suits them.

The main disadvantage associated with(coming along with) increasing use of technology in
education is the decrease in face to face interaction between students. Students spend more time
looking at computer screens by themselves than interacting with each other. For instance, the
recent explosion in smart phone use has been at the expense of genuine human interaction. This
results in soft skills, such as verbal communication and empathy, being effected.

In conclusion, the benefits technology brings to education, such as student autonomy, must be
weighed against the drawbacks, such as negative effects on human interaction. Overall, the
educational benefits outweigh the disadvantages because human beings will always want human
contact and most people will not solely use IT for education.

Advertisements play a major role on TV in market economies. Despite the benefits of such
information, many people criticize the role of TV advertising. To what extent do you agree or
disagree?

It is undeniable that the advent of advertisements on TV has brought a range of benefits to the
world in terms of economy, lifestyle. However, some people criticize TV advertising for exposing
people to a number of objectionable contents. This essay will first discuss the benefits of TV
advertisements before examining their negative effects.

TV advertising can be a source of entertainment and GIVE us quick information about products
we may want to purchase. First of all, with the charming and appealing images in advertising
content, people feel pleasant and relaxed when viewing THEM. Unlike other programmes on TV,
advertising parts are often witty, well-filmed to satisfy viewers with the desire to unwind.
Information given about commercial products in snatches is the second advantage. Customers
are more likely to choose the right items for themselves merely by watching those
advertisements, instead of searching for their products elsewhere. As a result, those brands
quickly gain sales and later boost economic growth; buyers get their desired products at the
same time.

When it comes to negative effects of TV advertisement, growing consumerism and falsely

exaggerated quality of products shown to viewers are the two most common effects. First of all,
people are inclined to purchase a greater number of commodities when being exposed to
CONSTANT advertisements. This trend can lead to increasing consumerism around the world
with people’s wasteful consumption habits. As a result, the environmental impacts are worse as
well. Secondly, advertisers don’t show true information all the time. People could be tricked into
 purchasing low-quality products which seem to be excellent on TV. It results in wasting time,
money, and trust of purchasers. It has a damaging impact on business as customers will feel
betrayed and take their business elsewhere.

In conclusion, people cannot overlook the positive impacts of modern advertising; however,
they should be careful (exercise caution)n when making decisons buying through(based on)
advertisements.

 Is it good for children to start using computers from an early age and spend long hours on
them? Discuss the advantages and disadvantages.

With the development of technology, computer is undoubtedly one of the most essential parts
in each household, leading to children’s over viewing TV from a young age. This essay will point
out(highlight) 2 advantages and 2 disadvantages to the problem.

To begin with, promoting kids’ creativity and being a incredible source of entertainment are the
two foremost merits. When children are exposed to an ocean of contents on TV, they can
practice perspective taking such as guessing other character’s reaction basing on their facial
expression. As a result, they gain a better understanding of the situations they may experience
in the future. For example, a number of children come up with creative and unique ideas after
watching comedy shows on TV or fiction films. Secondly, watching TV is beneficial to children’s
health after a stressful studying day. With a wide range of movies, clips, and podcasts, children
find it easy to find a way to rewind and recharge their battery in order to be prepared for the
following day.

Along with these merits, children’s exposure to TV at an early age can damage their eyes and
have a detrimental impact on their social life. First, binge-watching TV cause eyestrain for their
eyes are not developed entirely. Some common symptoms include bloodshot eyes, dry eyes, or
bad vision. For instance, according to the NYTimes, 70% percent children asked were diagnosed
with short-sightedness after having spent about 6 hours per day watching TV from a young age.
Moreover, spending too much time at home watching TV can dampen children’s social life as
they are increasingly isolated from the society. They are in favor of meeting and socializing with
virtual people rather than people in real life.
 At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of
young adults, compared with the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation
outweigh the disadvantages?
In this day and age, many nations have far more young people than the elder ones. It is argued
that whether the trend has a good impact on the countries or brings bad consequences to them.
This essay will highlight two prominent merits and disadvantages to the trend.

Having numerous young adults certainly benefits the countries as the young are flexible and
easily adaptable to certain situations; Abundant workforce is another merit. First and foremost,
the young find it easier to adjust to new environment depending on their jobs. Unlike older
people who are in favor of stable and safe workplace or job choice, the young can move
anywhere with their career. Second, the abundance of working population is highly beneficial to
the country. The government will not have to think about the lack of needed working people
anymore; instead, a large number of people are available for employment at all time. As a
result, the country’s economy will thrive, upgrading their citizens’ living standard.

Along with the pros, the lack of employment and the strain on housing supplies are the major
drawbacks. First of all, a greater amount of young people in a country can lead to mass
unemployment as the population number surpasses the amount of job available. The country
may contain a large pool of the underemployed because people cannot seek for jobs that are
appropriate for them due to high competition for work. Unemployment has a ripple effect on
the country’s economy as consumer spending, which is one of an economy’s key drivers of
growth, goes down, leading to a recession or even a depression when left unaddressed.
Secondly, an increase in the number of young adults may result in severe housing shortage, with
house prices becoming unaffordable due to high demand and short supply. The effect is that it is
impossible for an adult to own a house by the time he reaches 35. For example, according to the
NYtimes, around
