Note: Các đoạn văn mẫu 4 người là dựa vào trí nhớ, nên cách dùng từ có thể khác, nhưng ý chính và quan điểm của
4 người vẫn giữ nguyên.
🔹 Topic: Childhood
Noha:
In the past, I really liked playing board games. Now, to limit the children from using computers, I often spend time
playing with them. However, I have struggled with them because the games nowadays have more characters and
rules, making us think a lot every time we play. She feels very stigmatized when she cannot understand the games as
quickly as her children. Despite this, my children and I still like it and laugh a lot together.
Jan:
When I was a child, I often played soccer with other children of the same age. We usually played in the schoolyard
and sometimes in the open spaces of the neighborhood. We divided into small teams and chased the ball until we
were all tired.
Chris:
When I was a child, I didn't like going out to play, so I chose reading books as a form of entertainment. The stories
described in the pages of books helped me discover my own world. Later, when I grew up, I started liking modern
games with eye-catching interfaces, which help me relax and increase my creativity.
Liam:
When I was a child, I really liked outdoor activities. I remember that on bad weather days, I was always by the
window, glued to it, looking outside and praying for the rain to stop. At those times, my mother often gave me paper
and a box of crayons. I really enjoyed that drawing activity and often drew at home when the weather was bad.

🔹 Topic: Festival Music (1)
Person A
I really enjoyed the final performance of the festival. It was definitely the highlight of the whole event for me. The
band played all my favorite songs, and the atmosphere was incredible. However, getting to the venue was a
nightmare because of the heavy traffic. It took me much longer than expected to arrive, and I think the organizers
should improve the transportation options and parking facilities next time to make things easier for attendees.
Person B
Honestly, I didn't like the festival much overall. The weather was terrible — it rained almost all day, which made the
ground muddy and uncomfortable for everyone. The large crowds didn't help either; it was difficult to move around
or find a good spot to watch the performances. I think the bad weather really ruined the experience for many
people.
Person C
For me, the festival was a bit too expensive, especially when it came to food and drink prices. I felt that some things
were overpriced, which made it harder to enjoy the event fully. However, I really loved one of the performances —
the jazz band was fantastic and played with so much energy. That performance made the whole experience
worthwhile despite the cost.
Person D
I thought the location of the festival was perfect. It was easy to get to by public transport and had plenty of open
space to relax between shows. The natural surroundings, including nearby trees and a lake, made the atmosphere
much more enjoyable and peaceful compared to festivals held in city centers. I would definitely attend again
because of this.

However, on the last day everything felt different, and I really started to enjoy the festival. By the end, I was glad I
had gone.
Person B
I go to this festival every year, and this year I went again. However, I didn't like the music, and there were other
things I didn't enjoy either, for example the weather, it was raining. Because of that, I don't want to go again next
year.
Person C
Teenagers enjoyed the whole program from beginning to end. Even though it rained a little, it didn't matter to them.
However, teenagers can't afford the ticket price. They really hope the organizers will think about that for the future.
Person D
I was one of the band members playing on the first day of the festival. I also met other familiar bands there. Even
though I only performed a few songs, I stayed until the end of the day. The payment was not much, but I still enjoyed

🔹 Topic: Festival Music (3) (Paraphrase của Festival Music 1)
Person A
This is my first time going to a concert, and the experience was quite mixed. At the beginning, I didn't enjoy it much
because the weather was bad, and the music wasn't very special. If the weather had been sunny, it would have been
better and more fun. However, on the last day, everything changed when I finally saw my favorite singers perform.
Meeting them and listening to their songs made the whole trip unforgettable for me.
Keywords: weather was bad, on the last day, favorite singers
Person B
I attend music festivals every year, and over time it has become something of a personal tradition. I always enjoy the
lively atmosphere where people come together to share their love for music. However, this festival was not as good
as I expected. The weather was unpleasant, and the performances were quite average. Although I still had a good
time, I don't think I will return to this festival again in the future.
Keywords: not as good as I expected, performances were quite average, don't think I will return
Person C
I don't like one particular type of music being played at festivals, as I much prefer a variety of genres to enjoy and
dance to. Fortunately, this event offered many different kinds of music, and the performances were amazing. The
rain made the atmosphere more exciting and joyful. The only problem was that the ticket price was too high, which
made it hard for students like me to join easily.
Keywords: variety of genres, performances were amazing, ticket price was too high
Person D
My band and I were invited to play at this festival, and we delivered the kind of performance our audience has come
to expect from us. It was a wonderful experience because some of our old members and friends also came to see us.
After the show, we talked and shared memories together. The crowd was very enthusiastic, and we all felt proud.
The only difficulty was that the place was far from the main road, which made it hard to bring our instruments there.

🔹 Topic: Extreme Sports
Person A
Before trying any extreme sport, I believe it's absolutely essential to train properly. These kinds of activities are
exciting, but they can also be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. I've seen people get hurt because they
didn't prepare well. That's why I always make sure to take a training course and understand the safety rules before I
try anything new. With the right preparation, I think extreme sports can be a great experience.
Person B
I've always been more into traditional sports like swimming, running, or playing tennis. They're fun and easy to do
regularly. But a few months ago, I went bungee jumping during a holiday, and it was an incredible experience. I
didn't expect to enjoy it so much! I still prefer regular sports for everyday fitness, but now I'm definitely more open
to trying extreme sports once in a while for adventure.
Person C
What I love most about extreme sports is how they let me enjoy nature in a different way. Activities like rock
climbing or mountain biking allow me to explore amazing places while challenging myself physically and mentally. It's
a way to disconnect from daily life and feel completely alive. If I had more time and money, I'd love to do these kinds
of sports more often especially in wild, remote areas.
Person D
I know some people find extreme sports exciting, but for me, they've never been important. I actually avoid them as
much as possible. I don't like the idea of putting myself in danger just for fun. There are plenty of safer ways to stay
active and enjoy life. I'd rather go for a walk or do yoga than jump out of a plane or climb a mountain. It's just not my
thing.

🔹 Topic: Jobs and Training (NEW)
Person A
When I first graduated from school, I was undecided about what to do, so I joined several volunteer programs for
many companies and organizations to gain experience. I liked volunteering because it helped me choose a career
and gave me many valuable experiences. I also believe I was able to help people through my work.
Person B
When I was at school, I already knew I wanted to become a teacher, so I didn't need experience in another field. I
chose to study education at university, and in my country this is also free. Last summer, I did practical training in
some schools, and it was very useful for my future job.
Person C
When I was young, I often helped my neighbor, a plumber, with jobs like measuring pipes, opening screws, and
working with tools. I think it was very natural for me to learn this job, and later I studied two years at university to
become an electrician. Now, I know there are some short courses in this field, and I regret not choosing them
instead.
Person D
After graduation, it was very hard to find a job. I applied to many companies, but I was not accepted because I had
no experience. Later, I worked for a gaming company from home. It did not affect my schedule, and I worked at night
while my colleagues worked during the day, but I was fine with it.
