My city has been changing since the municipal authority had a plan to renovate the canal systems. The project cost a huge amount of money which was from the support of the world bank and the city’s budget. Before the renovation, the canal was the dirtiest place full of rubbish along its sides. Many ramshackle shacks were built to be shelters of the impoverished working families migrating to this city to earn their living. Household wastes were directly dumped into the canal, resulting in the very contaminated environment. It was said that the very unpleasant smell releasing from the canal was unable to be eliminated, and the living condition there would not be better. However, thanks to the advanced technology and methods as well as the city authority’s effort, everything has been changing. There is no longer the disgusting smell or shabby houses along both sides of the canal. Instead, the road running parallel to the canal is now full of shade of greenery and the water now is so clean that it is a friendly habitat for a variety of fish. The residents now can walk or do morning exercise on the sidewalks along the banks to enjoy the fresh atmosphere. Former inhabitants are also relocated in new apartments with much better living conditions than before. The canal creates not only a beautiful urban landscape, but also brings a lot of economic benefits to local dwellers. Because of its reformation, the city is changing fast too.

B. The advanced technology contributes to the better changing of their lives.

C. They can go for a walk along the canal without suffering from the unpleasant smell.

Script:

Ann: Hello, Linh. What are you doing?

Linh:  Well, I’m filling out the volunteer application form. This year, our school will organize a 3-week community service campaign to help poor children, in which the volunteers can teach English language as tutors. If you cannot arrange time to take part in, you can donate any kinds of materials like money, books, clothes, or even toys that are still in good use.

Ann: That’s interesting! And where are the volunteers going to do those activities?

Linh:  Well, the trip is going to last 3 weeks, and we are visiting a mountainous commute located in northern Viet Nam. It’s a remote area very far from the town, where the local young learners find it hard to go to a language center to learn English. We are going to bring knowledge to the children. Besides, this is also a good chance for us to learn some social skills and learn to work effectively in a team.

Ann: I can’t agree more. I think we can learn more about daily life, culture, and cuisine of the people living there too. It’s a pity that I cannot join these activities. However, I can send these children some lovely hand puppets and some of my books.

Linh:  That would be great, Ann. After coming back, each member will write a reflection paper so that the organizers will be able to do better in the next campaign. I’ll share it with you.

Ann: Thanks a lot Linh! It’s so nice of you!

Hi everyone, my name is Susan and I’ve got some hot news for you all! It’s the 2022 Spring Festival program which will be held on the 18th of January. Not only can you enjoy it, but you can also participate in the program with lots of fun outdoor games and live entertainments amazingly designed for our school teachers and students. Our special guests will be a famous rock band and the most loved singer who was the champion of last year's national music competition. Who are they? Let’s guess and let me keep their names secretly until the last minute. In addition, there will be many other activities for those who love dancing. Last year we had planned to hold a dancesport event, but in the end we had to cancel it due to unexpected changes. So, this year the competition will be held for the very first time. The entrance tickets are absolutely free. However, because the number of tickets is limited, you’d better book now to make sure you have seats for yourselves and your friends. Thank you and see you soon.

Sample writing:

A laptop is one of the best inventions that is beneficial for students’ schoolwork. To begin with, laptops are portable and not bulky, so students can bring them to the library or Internet café to do school projects with their partners. Another benefit is that they are preferable to be used for typing and editing most of students’ given presentations and assignments due to their convenience and versatility. Students also use laptops to interact with their teachers through sending and receiving instant messages on social networking sites, submitting their homework via emails or even doing tests online. Last but not least, a laptop is a useful tool to search for and download learning materials on the Internet. It can store much more learning data than a smartphone or a tablet. In conclusion, a laptop brings various benefits to students, so they should take advantage of its functions wisely.
