Nowadays we are bombarded with technology. Our parents and grandparents couldn't dream about devices like

computer, cell-phones, video-games which are everywhere right now. Today computers with Internet access

are almost in every home and it became essential tool for students. A computer is necessary for college

students for three reasons: research, computer programs, and knowledge.

First of all, a computer is necessary for college students for research. Research helps students better

understand reading assignments which were them given for homework. For example, many foreign students

look on the Internet for technical words, which are critical for understanding the text. They look in dictionaries

or googling to find adequate explanation of the words. This helps students better understand the reading and do

well on the homework. In addition, depending on the college students' major, they are obligated to do projects.

For instance, biology students look for certain information for their projects like how the human body or code

DNA works. They can find helpful results of elaborated illustrations and satisfying explanations. Because of

that, the have better chance to be well prepared for projects and get a good grade. Doing research is one reason

that a computer is necessary for college students to better understand reading assignments and be well prepared

for projects.

Secondly, computer programs is another reason that computer is essential for college students. In college

typed essays are required from students. For example, some people have bad handwriting skills and they arehard to decipher. In Word Microsoft Office program, students can type their essays making them neat, nice and

readable. Students meet the requirements and they don't lower their grade to not doing homework properly.

Furthermore, programs help college students to do their assignments. For instance, by using Excel Microsoft

Office, economic students can do various charts and graphs showing different statics. Using that program helps

them to perform their task and be prepared for a class. Owning a computer is important for college students

because programs help them to deal with college's requirements and be ready for a class.

Finally, the last reason that computers are significant for college students is knowledge. People who read a

lot on the Internet increase their wisdom expanding their creativity. For example, students who have to write

essays must have many ideas to develop their thoughts. Reading articles on various topics helps students have

the information and develop their individual point of view. This provides them to think creatively and writegood essays. Moreover, students get their knowledge from news. For instance, people who read currently

information, which are upload in every couple minutes, have knowledge about newest events from all over the

world what is helpful with their studies and be active during class conversations. Having a computer for

college students is important because it helps them to have knowledge to write good essays and be effective

during classes.

In conclusion, the three major reasons that it is necessary for college students to have a computer are

research, computer programs, and knowledge. Doing research helps students better understand reading

assignments and be well prepared for projects. Programs help them to deal with college's requirements and

perform their tasks. Also, knowledge develop their creativity to write good essays and adjust them to be active

in class conversations. At present, computers have became common source of exchanging thoughts andsupport for reliable information.

Big city is where you can see many vehicles,many skyscrapers, many peple with a hurry pace of life. That

place can fascinate us very much due to its light and luxury.Nowadays, more and more pople want to live

there because they see manyadvantages. Indeed, in a big city, people can have the best chances to work as

well as can enjoy the best service and entertaiment



In a big city, people can take the chaces to study and work best. There are many good University for u to

graduate, you also find it easier to find chances to get a good job with good salary, that is quite

difficult in small cities or countrysides; because there concentrates many big companies and groups.

Hence, many graduate students choose big cities to live and work. In short, it is where you can

take advantages f yourself.

In addition, in a big city you can enjoy the best service and entertainment. Because there are many rich

people here, they can invest much money to get the best for them. Lives in a big city are quite luxurius but

you don't have to be worried when you are sick or suffer a disease because there you can find good

doctors for you, as long as you have muich money. What's more, ina big city you can enjoy new

entertainment such as new games or luxury games.

Many people can argue that living in a big city makes them tired with noise and dash. They like the slow

pace of life in a countryside. But I think that you can live there for a long ime because the young always

like to enjoy new things and want to have much money, which is very difficult to do in a countryside.

However, when you get older, especially when you retire, a countryside wll the best choice to live.

In summary, living in a big city has many advantages. However, you have to try your best to overcome alldifficulties such as hard competition in workplace or polluted environment. you shuold not complain

when face up to disadvantages of it.

Attendance in college classes is usually not required. But it is important to go to class to get the information

you need to perform well on assignments and exams! The methods used for learning in high school are

generally not appropriate for college learning. You will need to learn appropriate study strategies such as

critical thinking and synthesizing information. Memorization is not enough! Professors want you to learn. But

they will not always know if you are in trouble. If you are having problems in class, visit your professor’s

office hours. It is up to you to make the effort to seek help. Even if you are not interested in the subject, youcan still do well in the class. But you may have to invest more time and effort to learning the material. Grading

is very different.You are tested less than in high school. Your entire grade for a class may be determined from

just a midterm and a final exam (50% for each). Few professors offer opportunities for extra credit or allow

you to redo assignments. College gives you greater freedom but more responsibility. So learn good time

management skills and make mature decisions.

As our country becomes more developed, the number of vehicles on the streets is (are) increased rapidly.

All of them are the main means of transportation , (no "," because using "and") and they create many

problems to city people (it is the cause of many problems for people who live in the city) as well as traffic

authorities, especially motorbike. So what the (not "the") are the reasons that cause (of the) traffic problems in our city?

- Nearly, all the streets and roads (we use "streets" so don't need "roads") are narrow, dirty, in bad

conditions and continually (to) dug to install water pipes or mains (having many roadworks).

- The traffic (light) system does not work well. There are not enough traffic police (force) or they are (not

too) strict enough to finetraffic-law breakers. Sometimes ("sometime" doesn't have "s") they

receive bribery (bribe)



- Many people do not strictly observe the traffic laws when using the roads (their vehicles). Many street

vendors illegally occupy the pavement to display their goods for sale. Some people drop rubbish or (it's

same with "throw waste") throw waste indiscriminately in the middlle of the streets, which adds to the risk

of accidents.

- Many pedestrians cross streets wherever they like although on every road there are (a) pedestrian

bridges or zebra-lines to cross.

Have you had any experience about the traffic jam in Hanoi? Many motorcycles and bicycles are stuck

at the crossroads. It is especially hard to you to go at the peak hour. This critical situation in Hanoi is

caused by individual, infrastructure and scheme factors. The purpose of this paper is to analyze these

three main causes of traffic jam in Hanoi.

The first and immediate cause of traffic jam in Hanoi is the individual knowledge. This cause refers to

characteristics of Hanoi people. For example, many people don’t follow the traffic rules. They try to

across the road even when the light is red. The lack of consciousness to follow the traffic rules is one of

the most significant factors that contributes to traffic jam.

The second cause of traffic jam in Hanoi has to do with infrastructure. For example, stastics show thatHanoi has not enough roads for a good traffic. In addition the roads are small. Because of this, people

have no choice. They have to go the same road when they go home or go to work, even when they know

exactly that they will get traffic jam on the way going home.

The third and most significant cause of traffic jam in Hanoi is the scheme of the city. Although the

government has tried to improve it, but the scheme is still a problem. Some new roads are built, and some

old roads are made larger. But these tries like a drop in the sea.

Nobody likes the traffic jam. In order to have a good traffic, Hanoi people should learn traffic rules.

Hanoi also needs a good scheme of city and good roads.

Have you ever felt stress and you don't know why? Many of us

have felt stress in our job, family, or in the school. We are going

to see that enviromental problems, our personal stuff, and our

work are the main causes that produce stress.

The first cause of stress are enviromental stressors. Usually, when

we go to work, the traffic is used to affecting us because we think

about arriving late at school or at our job, instead of listening to

music for relaxing. Also the noise is another cause that affects us.When we listen a lot of it, we get nervous and also we get angry

for it.

Our personal stuff also can stress us. In our family we are exposed

to too many problems, but the most common are troubles with the



parents, or marital problems. Like when you are going to get

divorce you are worry because of that. The lack of money also canbe another. W e get worried when we can not pay the house bills

or when we can not buy something that we want.

The last cause is trouble with our work. The excess of work is the

main cause of stress because we feel the responsability to take out

the work that we have. Also when our boss arrives and he scolds

for any apparent reason we get frustratied, and we spend the rest

of the day upset.

Enviromental problems, personal stuff, and our work are the main

causes of stress. If we don't take the things with calm and are not

relax, we will fall in the stress and our health is going to beaffected.

Technology today touches everything we do. You never know how much something can play a major

role in your life until you sit back, relax, and sit right in front of the computer and access the

internet. It can be beneficial in your family, business, and personal life.

First of all, The Internet brings friends and family closer together.Before the Internet, it was possible

to keep in touch with relatives and friends across the country or around the world and it was also

expensive. Today, A person living in Louisiana now has the means to communicate with friends, family,

or other people who live halfway across the world. This has allowed many people to stay in touch with

each other, that they may not have been able to keep in touch with prior to this invention.

Secondly, Large companies can connect with employees, suppliers, and partners around the globe, and

small businesses can find their customers anywhere in the world. Businesses can hire knowledgeable

workers anywhere regardless of where they are, greatly expanding employment opportunities. The

internet provides countless avenues to learn about new jobs, training, volunteer opportunities, and

what's happening in your field.

Finally, the Internet offers people an easy way to shop for goods and services in different states and

countries. Not only do you do it online, but at your own time and privacy of your own home. What is so

amazing you can pay bills without wasting stamps and guaranteeing that it gets their in a timely

fashion.

In Conclusion, The Internet and other communication tools let us live and work anywhere we

like. With the world's information at our fingertips and clients and colleagues instantly reachable, the



internet is very vital to our lifestyle and to go through life without it will be very tough especially since

we use it everyday

Nowadays, When human has a high level of living, our earth has exhausted of

many kinds of pollution, especially is air pollution, -one of the largest polluted

sources come from three causes: growing urbanisation, increasing number of

vehicles and deforestation by using fire. we will look at these three causes of air

pollution problem.

One of the main common causes of air pollution is an increase in urbanisation. Alot of people have moved from rural areas to urban areas because they want to

look for better schools, hospital and services for themselves. As a result, the city

population become overcrowded. Also, the level of air pollution increases in big

cities. a second cause of air pollution is an increase in the number of vehicles. The cost

of motorbikes is very cheap and quite afforable for most families. For example: it is

quite common for each families to have 3 to 4 motorbikes in the family. As the

number of vehicles increases, the levels of air pollution increase.

A third major cause of air pollution is the clearing of forests using fire. In some

countries where the population is booming people have to clear forests to make

room for buildings, schools, hospitals and supermarkets. Using fire to clear forest is

the cheapest available tool. As the result, the smoke which comes from fires,

affects and pollutes our air quality.

In conclusion, Air pollution 's from 3 sources: urban growth, an increase in the

number of mortobikes and clearing forests using fire. It's the time for our

government and us should take actions to protect environemnt for us and our

future generations.



Through the whole of our lives we do our best to gain the knowledge that will help

us live better .. we do our best while at school, at work, or anywhere. We just try

to save as much informations as possible.

There are two sources for getting knowldage, the first one is through books, thesecond is through experience. In another word, there is a theorical and practical

ways for gaining knowledge.

The most knoledge we gain in our young age is gained from books, we go to school

and study in books all the subjects we need, languages, history, geography, and

general education. Also adults get a lot of knowledge through books, because they

are a very useful way for saving it, a very useful way also for forwarding it, there is

a proverb that says : "the best freind is you book".

The second source of knowledge wich I think is more important is experience, it

gives your real life situations, and make you experiment all what you have learned

in books, take for example physics and scientific experiments, it is important to

witness it to understand it well, books will never be able to explain the experiment

and the results better than seeing it in real life.

I totaly agree with the statement that says : "Not everything that is learned is

contained in books". For an instance, while looking for a job, employers look more

importantly at the experience section in your resume or your CV, then comes on

the second hand you diplomas and studies, because we all know that experience

gives us the best knowledge and sometimes even in a short time.

To sum up, we should always try our best to gain as much knowledge as possible

from experience through facing real life situations and real people and communicate

with them, know their different ways of thinking, learn from other opinions and

culturs, and also not to forget the help of theorical knowledge of books, because

they also will never be replaced.



Should university students be required to attend classes? Some people believe that

attending classes should be optional for students, but really disagree with them

about it. In do not understand how university students can expect to learn much

knowledge if thy do not attend classes. Although, self-study is a good way toacquire knowledge, I am of the opinion that no matter they like or not, university

students should be required to attend classes because of following reasons.

In the first place, University students can acquire much knowledge when they

attend classes. The professor can teach students a lot of things that are not written

in the books. Books normal offer just concentrated knowledge. Therefore, the

professor will clarify and expand knowledge; teach students the way of thinking,

and the like. This expansion the students can not learn if they learn by themselves

through the books. Sometimes, the professor can invite the guest speakers cometo talk about some issues. They can have in common with students their

experiences. Thus, by usually going to classes, university students can learn much

knowledge that does not cover in textbook. In the second place, attending classes, university students can learn more skills

for their future life. In classes, the professor may require students to do

teamwork. That means some students have to work together. As a result, they can

learn some skills through their group assignment. They can learn how to deal with

other people that their opinions are not the same. They have to their preparation to

persuade others. They have to explain your ideas. This is communication

skills. These skills are very important for students when they go to work in the

future. Moreover, going to classes can train university students to be more responsible

and hard-working. Usually going to classes and keeping the schedule of classes

require the effort of university students. That means they must learn their previous

lessons at home and prepare for the next lesson. They have to arrange their time

between attending classes and self-studying. If they want to be the best in their

classes, they have to be responsible and hard-working and attending classes can

train university students. In conclusion, I think the university should require students to attend classes

because the students can have much knowledge than they learn by themselves,

learn more skills especial communication and team-work skill for their career in the

future, and they will be responsible and hard-working. These are some advantages

when students attend classes.



Life is very competitive now. In order to succeed in life a person should learn many

different skills like communication, hard work, patience etc. I think it is the

communication skill which the most important.

A person who has good interpersonal skill can learn more in a short time. He can

gather a lot more information by talking than by other means like reading

books. For example, if a student wants to study abroad he should talk to someone

who has been through the same experience. If he is shy to talk to someone he will

have to spend a lot of time to find out the information. People with effective communication skill have good relationship with

others. Everyone trusts and rely on him. He can count on others to help him when

he is in need. A good manager who has a very good relationship with others can

ask for help anytime he wants. As everybody loves him, everyone will help himheartily.

A good communicator can get a good job. He can make anyone understand what

he is capable of. He can create a good first impression. He can convince an

employer that he is the best person for the job.

Everyone wants to be successful in life. The most important skill a person should

learn to reach that goal is communication. He can learn more, have a good job and

have more friends who can help him succeed in life.
