IELTS TUTOR gợi ý bài tham khảo:
Today, I would like to tell you about my ideal house—a magnificent coastal villa (biệt thự ven biển) nestled in a serene seaside community (khu dân cư ven biển yên bình) where I can wake up every morning to the soothing sound of waves crashing against the shore. I have always envisioned living in a place like this, far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by nature's beauty and tranquility.
To me, the house would not only be aesthetically pleasing but also meticulously designed (thiết kế tỉ mỉ) to cater to all my needs. It would have a spacious ocean-view balcony (ban công rộng rãi nhìn ra biển), where I could sip my morning coffee while enjoying the breathtaking scenery. For leisure, there would be a state-of-the-art home theatre (rạp chiếu phim tại gia hiện đại) and a video game room (phòng chơi game), allowing me to unwind after a long day. Of course, I would not forget a well-stocked library (thư viện đầy đủ sách) for my quiet moments of reading and reflection.
As for the surroundings, I imagine my villa to be enveloped in lush greenery with a manicured garden (vườn được cắt tỉa gọn gàng) filled with vibrant flowers and towering palm trees swaying in the ocean breeze. There would also be a tranquil pond (hồ yên tĩnh) with a wooden bridge arching over it, providing a picturesque spot to relax. To top it off, the entire property would be encircled by a white picket fence (hàng rào gỗ trắng), symbolizing peace and security.>> Form đăng kí giải đề thi thật IELTS 4 kĩ năng kèm bài giải bộ đề 100 đề PART 2 IELTS SPEAKING quý đang thi (update hàng tuần) từ IELTS TUTOR
The reason why I consider this house ideal is twofold. Firstly, it fulfills my lifelong dream of living in a place where I can embrace the unspoiled beauty of nature (vẻ đẹp tự nhiên hoang sơ), away from the chaotic urban landscape (cảnh quan đô thị hỗn loạn). I have always envisioned a self-sufficient lifestyle (lối sống tự cung tự cấp), where I could grow my own vegetables and fruits, ensuring both quality and safety in an era where food safety is becoming increasingly concerning. Secondly, this villa would serve as a sanctuary for relaxation and creativity (nơi trú ẩn cho sự thư giãn và sáng tạo), offering the perfect environment to recharge my batteries (nạp lại năng lượng) and unleash my imagination (khơi dậy trí tưởng tượng).
In short, this villa by the sea represents not just a place to live but a paradise on earth (thiên đường trên mặt đất), where every day feels like a holiday and peace of mind is guaranteed.

IV. Part 3
1. What are the most common architectural styles in Vietnamese cities?
In Vietnamese cities, there is a diverse blend (sự pha trộn đa dạng) of architectural styles that reflect both traditional elegance (vẻ đẹp truyền thống) and modern sophistication (sự tinh tế hiện đại). On the one hand, colonial-era architecture (kiến trúc thời kỳ thuộc địa) is highly visible, especially in cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, where French-inspired buildings showcase grand facades and intricate balconies. These structures are not only visually captivating but also serve as historical landmarks (cột mốc lịch sử) that represent a significant chapter in Vietnam's past. For instance, the Hanoi Opera House and the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City are iconic examples of this style. On the other hand, contemporary designs are emerging rapidly, characterized by minimalist structures (cấu trúc tối giản) and sustainable materials (vật liệu bền vững). These modern buildings, often seen in newly developed areas, prioritize functionality, energy efficiency, and environmental harmony, aligning with global architectural trends. The harmonious coexistence (sự chung sống hài hòa) of these contrasting styles reflects Vietnam's journey towards modernization while preserving its rich cultural heritage.>> tham khảo CẦN VIẾT & THU ÂM BAO NHIÊU BÀI ĐỂ ĐẠT 8.0 SPEAKING & 7.0 WRITING?

2. What's the difference between an apartment and a house?
The primary difference between an apartment (căn hộ) and a house (ngôi nhà) lies in their structural design (thiết kế cấu trúc) and ownership rights (quyền sở hữu). An apartment is part of a larger complex where multiple living spaces are stacked vertically, sharing common areas like lobbies (sảnh lớn), elevators (thang máy), and security systems (hệ thống an ninh). For example, residents in high-rise apartments typically have access to shared amenities like gyms, swimming pools, and parking spaces. In contrast, a house is a standalone property (bất động sản độc lập) that usually includes private land, gardens, and outdoor space, offering more privacy and autonomy (sự riêng tư và tự chủ). Homeowners have full control over modifications and renovations, which is often limited in apartment living. This difference in space and control makes houses more appealing to families, while apartments are popular among young professionals who prioritize convenience and accessibility.
3. What's the difference between living in the countryside and living in the city?
The difference between living in the countryside (vùng nông thôn) and living in the city (thành phố) is quite significant, as each environment offers distinct lifestyles. In rural areas, people enjoy a slower pace of life (nhịp sống chậm hơn), which promotes relaxation and a deeper connection with nature. This setting provides ample opportunities for outdoor activities, such as farming, gardening, and fishing, contributing to a self-sufficient lifestyle (cuộc sống tự cung tự cấp). Conversely, city life is often fast-paced (nhịp sống nhanh), with its bustling streets, modern infrastructure, and a wide range of amenities. Urban residents benefit from better job opportunities, advanced healthcare, and greater access to educational institutions. However, the city's hustle and bustle can sometimes lead to stress and a lack of community bonding, unlike the tight-knit relationships (mối quan hệ gắn bó chặt chẽ) typically found in rural areas. Therefore, while the countryside provides tranquility and simplicity, city life offers convenience and opportunity, reflecting the contrasting advantages of each setting.
4. What are the advantages of the facilities of the apartment and the facilities of the house?
The facilities available in apartments and houses offer distinct benefits based on lifestyle and personal preference. Apartments are well-known for their integrated amenities (tiện ích tích hợp) like swimming pools, fitness centers, and security services that are conveniently accessible (tiếp cận thuận tiện) for residents. For instance, modern apartment complexes often feature shared recreational spaces (khu vực giải trí chung) where people can socialize and relax without leaving the building. On the contrary, houses provide exclusive facilities (tiện nghi độc quyền), including private gardens, larger storage spaces, and sometimes even home offices (văn phòng tại gia). These personalized living spaces (không gian sống cá nhân hóa) allow homeowners to design and modify according to their specific needs and preferences. While apartments emphasize community living and security, houses focus more on privacy and customization, making each option appealing in different ways.
5. Why do some people prefer to live in an apartment rather than in a house?
Some people prefer living in an apartment (căn hộ) over a house (ngôi nhà) for several compelling reasons. First and foremost, apartments are generally more cost-effective (tiết kiệm chi phí) due to their smaller space and shared maintenance costs, making them ideal for young professionals and small families. Additionally, apartments often feature state-of-the-art security systems (hệ thống an ninh hiện đại), providing residents with a heightened sense of safety. Another major advantage is convenient access to public transportation and urban amenities (tiếp cận thuận tiện đến giao thông công cộng và tiện ích đô thị), such as shopping centers, gyms, and hospitals, which are typically located nearby. This level of urban convenience (tiện ích đô thị) is often hard to match in suburban or rural areas. Furthermore, apartment living often fosters a sense of community spirit (tinh thần cộng đồng), where neighbors can easily connect through shared spaces and social events. For these reasons, many people find apartment life more suitable for their lifestyle and financial situation.
6. Why do some people prefer to live in a house rather than in an apartment?
Living in a house (ngôi nhà) is often preferred by individuals who value space, privacy, and independence (không gian, sự riêng tư, và sự độc lập). Unlike apartments, houses provide ample room for outdoor activities, gardening, and even expansions, allowing homeowners to customize their living space freely. This personalization (sự cá nhân hóa) is ideal for families with children or pets who require more space to play and explore. Additionally, houses are generally located in quieter, less congested areas, offering a peaceful living environment (môi trường sống yên bình). Another advantage is the lack of shared walls (tường chung), which means less noise disturbance from neighbors—an issue that is quite common in apartment living. Furthermore, houses offer greater ownership rights (quyền sở hữu lớn hơn), allowing residents to make structural changes without the restrictions imposed by apartment regulations. For these reasons, many people choose houses for the freedom and comfort they provide.
