Topic 3: Write a paragraph giving your opinions of the benefits of being able to use English. (at least 130 words)
Obviously, English, in our globalization world, has been considered as the international passport to enable us to be the
global citizen. That means the good demand of English helps us live and work well in any corner of the world. First, English
is an international language that is spoken everywhere, so if you are able to use English, you can communicate with people
all around the world. It is the English language that is used in aviation, international sports, music, commerce, and other.
Countless newspapers, periodicals, radio and television stations use English as their prior language. Secondly, we can learn
almost all things with the help of this useful language. If your English is good enough, you can take full advantages of the
internet the mass media storage and sources of knowledge and entertainments. You can realize your long-harbored dream
of working overseas by providing yourself good practice of English. For example, you will easily apply for a vacant at an
international company, organization, corporation, or a global group or enterprise so that you have chance to better your life
and work. In conclusion, English benefits us various ways including communication, knowledge, work, entertainment, or
even the way we lead our life.

Topic 1: Write a paragraph describing a person you admire most. (at least 150 words)
Of all my acquaintances, the principal of our school is the one who has created the
greatest ever impression on me. I must say that I am not only impressed by his good
managerial skills but also his personalities. First, this principal is one of the dedicated
educational managers who always know how to find new ways to run the school
effectively. For example, he has initiated various ideas and programs to improve the
schools educational quality, the teaching staffs lives despite limited resources. He also
knows very well that he can not do all things by himself. Therefore, he tries to motivate all
the teaching staff to join him towards better achievements treating them fairly. Secondly,
he instantly sets a clear example of a moderate but dedicated officer who loves to work
more than to talks. He has led a simple life. In short, his leadership skills and personalities
are greatly admired by not only myself but by everyone in our school.
Topic 2: Write a paragraph giving your opinions of what makes a person successful in life.
(at least 150 words)
There are many factors that make a person successful, but in my opinion the way people
define success is the most important. This is because the term success can be
interpreted differently by different individuals, and the unclear definition of this concept
may mislead people in life. The result is that each individual may not know how successful
he is, even when he achieves what he really wishes to. To me, success means you
achieve what your abilities allow you to. In other words, the achievement within ones
abilities gives him or her the sense of success. For example, if you are not intellectually
good enough to study at universities, but you actually have some innate (in-born) ability for
8
soccer, then a choice to become a football player may bring you success. So, unless we
define success clearly in our own way and act upon that understanding, success will
stay out of our reach.
