Topic 1: Increasing travels between countries enable people to learn different cultures or to
increase tension between people from different countries?
Globalisation is a catch-all term that refers to any activity that involves more than one country, for
example, travel from one country to another. The dramatic increase in transnational travel in recent years
has sparked controversy over the potential impacts of this trend on individual countries, especially those
new member states of globalisation. Some people are concerned that the upsurge in new arrivals will
prompt local hostility against visitors, instead of promoting their understanding on mutual cultural
background. This notion should be rejected as one can see many facts in favour of this development
between countries.
The first reason why international travels would never bring conflict is rooted in the fact that both visitors
and locals are economically motivated. International travel opens up opportunities for business
development throughout the world. Entrepreneurs are interested not only in the domestic market but
also in the overseas market. Foreigners should learn the culture of a country before winning over the local
people. In turn, locals should show their hospitality to visitors in exchange for their trust. They share a
view that acceptance of each other's cultural background is a necessary condition for cooperation.
Understanding a culture has other implications. Differences in social background, cultural values and
religious belief might make the discrepancy of foreigners and local inhabitants on some issues indelible;
however, the higher interaction, the higher level of communication and understanding. Arabians, for
example, used to consider westerners as their foes. Now they have concrete relations with their western
allies in many fields. In the initial stage, their divergence seemed inherent but over time, with better
mutual understanding, they take the same position on many issues.
Undeniably, it is likely that in some resorts, foreign visitors repel the local community with their scant
regard for the local environment and conventions when they first arrive. However, it should be noted that
most offense is accidental, rather than intentional. Instead, visitors disobey rules and conventions simply
because they have no knowledge of them. This situation is expected to be improved with the passing of
time when visitors from different countries increase their knowledge of a local culture.
According to the above analysis, we can observe that the increase in the international travel should not
be taken as the cause of any conflict that arises between two countries. Alternatively, one should
recognise its role in improving mutual understanding between two countries.

Topic 2: When international media (including movies, fashion shows, advertisements and other
TV programmes) convey the same messages to the global audience, people argue that the
expansion of international media has negative impacts on cultural diversity. What is your
opinion?
As international media companies expand across the world, the growing popularity and uniformity of
some media programmes (such as TV shows, movies, fashion shows) is causing worldwide concern.
Many people have strong views toward this trend. In my opinion, international media is closely linked to
cultural globalisation and cultural homogeneity.
The dominance of international media is a sign of Western cultural imperialism and has the potential to
thwart cultural diversity. It is not a secret that international media is owned and operated by a handful of
giant corporations, such as Time Warner. They control large sectors of the media market and place
national media companies at risk. The contraction in the number of media owners will cause a
proportional reduction in the variety of programmes broadcasted. For example, painting, music and
movies accessible in the media have a small number of genres, imposing restraints on one's knowledge
of artworks of different cultural backgrounds.
In addition to seizing control over those creative industries, global entertainment companies affect cultural
diversity by reshaping the perceptions, beliefs and norms of ordinary citizens in different countries. Most
of the cultural values and ideals promoted by the leading mainstream media are of American origin.
American culture values individuality, maximisation of one's benefits and material wealth, rather than
communal life and family solidarity, the values and norms previously treasured in many Asian countries.
Unfortunately, many Asian people now imitate American people, causing the alteration of their
perceptions of family. This radical change can be attributed to those movies and TV programmes that
portray the success of American individuals or corporations.
The loss of media diversity is also responsible for people's narrow sense of ways of life. The ruling class
of many countries speaks English, favours Western food, wears Western-style jackets and even prefers
Western weddings. Young people are captivated by American basketball and some even daubing the
names of NBA stars on their school sweatsuits. All these transformations in life are the result of the
audience's exposure to Hollywood movies, TV shows and sports reports. The loss of media diversity will
lead to degradation of culture and to a minimisation of cultural diversity. It is a worrying trend, as people
need cultural diversity to preserve and pass on their valuable heritage to future generations, including
lifestyle.
As shown above, international media, controlled by a handful of transnational media corporations, is
exporting Western culture worldwide and putting many indigenous cultures at the risk of extinction. The
uniformity of media programmes has led to that of artworks, norms and ways of life wherever international
media goes.

Topic 3: There is a disagreement on the impact of increased business and culture contact
between countries on a country's identity. What is your opinion?
One of the most conspicuous trends in the 21st century is a closer connection between countries, in
both economic and cultural aspects. There is a widespread worry that this will lead to the gradual demise
of countries' identities. This issue should be viewed and analysed from multiple perspectives.
When a country tends to develop a closer relationship with the rest of the world, it does not necessarily
give up its culture. Culture is not a disgrace to but an asset of a country. An indigenous culture can
distinguish one country from others, attracting foreign visitors and yielding high income. As most tourists
travel abroad for learning different cultures and sampling different ways of life, such as Beijing opera in
China. Japanese tea culture and Thai temples, many countries have responded with protecting and
preserving their cultural identities, in an effort to keep themselves in the list of the most popular
destinations. Increased tourism instils fresh life force into these countries, aiding the conservation of
their features.
While tourism provides a driving force for cultural conversation, some components of a culture, such as
traditions, customs or taboos might die out over time. It seems that in some countries, the locals have
become more accustomed to exotic cultures. It reflects the combined effects of the invasion of foreign
cultures, either through media or through direct business interaction. For example, two decades ago, sex
was a taboo subject in China and most Chinese people felt embarrassed to talk openly about it. Over
time the Western culture has permeated into the Chinese lifestyle, and the Chinese people have broken
many of their time-honoured traditions. It occurs in the rest of the world as well.
As outlined above, increased interaction between countries in the domains of business and culture can
either strengthen or undermine the identities of countries involved. To date there is no definite answer to
this question.

9. taboo = offensive = embarrassing = unacceptable = disgraceful = dishonourable = humiliating
10. permeate = seep into = pervade = leak into
11. time-honoured = age-old = long-established
12. interaction = interplay = communication = relationship

Topic 4: Some people believe that culture will be ruined if it is used to earn tourism revenue, but
others consider that tourism is the only way of protecting a culture. Discuss both sides and give
your own opinion.
There is little room for doubt that tourism is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. However, its
impact on culture remains a source of constant debate. This essay will elaborate on both positive and
negative effects of tourism from a cultural perspective.
Providing economic incentives for cultural preservation is unarguably one of the main contributions of
tourism. To many tourists, culture and history are what they first consider when choosing a destination.
Their mindset has been recognised by many tourism sites and money has been subsequently directed
toward cultural protection, including the maintenance of key historical sites. Tourism is therefore one of
the primary forces contributing to the preservation of a culture.
In addition to raising financing, tourism can make an indigenous culture known to the world and rally
support worldwide to protect it. When a historic site or a site that shows a country's cultural heritage is
made accessible to the public, visitors from all over the world will soon flock there. They will share their
experience in the local culture with their friends and families once they return home, assisting this site to
gain international fame. Both financial and technological support will flood in for the conservation of
natural and cultural resources.
On the negative side, tourism develops sometimes at the expense of part of culture. Food, festivals,
costumes and other stimulating elements of a culture tire highlighted to entertain tourists, constituting an
insult to the locals and causing damage to the unique nature of a culture. Moreover, cultural
commercialisation has made the sacred elements of a culture commonplace and tourists are
encouraged to attach little importance to a unique tradition, which cannot be found elsewhere.
In the light of these facts, one can conclude that tourism is neither a boon nor a bane to cultural
preservation. While its endeavour to protect an indigenous culture should be recognised, it has put the
integrity of a culture at risk.

Topic 5: Some people argue that immigrants should adopt the local culture when immigrating to a
new country. An alternative view is that they can adapt to a new environment by establishing a
minority community. Discuss these two views and give your opinion.
The world in the 21st century is marked by high population mobility. When an increasing number of
people have chosen to leave their motherlands and resettle in a new country, they are at crossroads
whether to blend in with the local culture or to cherish their own cultural heritages by establishing a
minority community. In my opinion, the convergence of different cultures does not require one culture to
yield to another. Instead, it can be achieved by building minority communities.
Most immigrants, at the first stage of their life in a new country, are faced with merging into the new
culture and integrating into the new society. Accepting the local culture by observing the local traditions is
a good starting point. Doing so enables immigrants to interact with locals, especially in the workplace,
where locals predominantly work. For example, in Western culture, people customarily keep a certain
distance from each other when having a conversation, whereas in some other cultures, the closeness of
physical distance is taken as a sign of mutual trust. Examples of this kind are many. A migrant to a new
country should recognise the differences and observe local conventions. It will help avoid embarrassment
and bring a sense of comfort.
While adopting local customs and blending into the local culture, migrants can follow their individual
cultural traditions. The coexistence of different minority communities in a country benefits both immigrants
and locals. On the one hand, it enables immigrants to counteract the stress that results from culture
shock and to increase confidence in their residence in a new country. On the other, the flourishing of
different cultures contributes to the establishment of a multi-cultural environment, a prerequisite for
attracting skilled workforce from all over the world to settle.
By comparing the immigration options above, one can conclude that immigrants can adopt local
conventions and cherish their own cultures simultaneously. This allows both locals and immigrants to cobuild a harmonious multi-cultural community.

Topic 6: The advantages of the spread of English as a global language will continue to outweigh
its disadvantages. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In these years, there is a growing recognition that English is well on its way to becoming the dominant
global language. The impact of this trend is a subject of intense debate. It is my opinion that advantages
of a dominant global language will continue to outweigh its disadvantages.
The rise of a global language is a facilitator of cross-cultural communication and the communication
between people with different language backgrounds. In different areas of global communication, such as
science and news, recognising a common language removes communication barriers and increases
convenience. On many formal occasions, English, as a working language, boosts efficiency and avoids
misunderstanding. Likewise, the exchange of essential information like know-how and technologies will
be tremendously prompted.
One might argue that the rise of a global language would endanger other languages, in a belief that an
increasing number of people have turned to English as their first language. This viewpoint is flawed. The
spread of global English has little, if any, influence on non-English-speakers' language proficiency. People
might be motivated to learn English as a foreign language but do not necessarily drop their native
language because learning beginner or intermediate level English is sufficient for day-to-day
communication.
The dominance of English as a global language is, therefore, not a cause of the loss of language
diversity. Its negative effect is reflected mainly in cultural imperialism. As international media recognises
English as its root language, most of the broadcasted information is related to the lifestyle, norms and
beliefs of English-speaking countries. It might over time put many minority cultures on the verge of
extinction, when those ethnic groups gradually adopt the Western culture. The effects of shrinking cultural
diversity are destructive, causing people to live in a simple and monotonous world and think and act in
similar ways.
The development of English is overall, a positive global trend. It connects people who previously spoke
different languages and enables them to exchange ideas, although it might lead to the loss of cultural
diversity.
1. know-how = knowledge
2. prompt = encourage = stimulate = trigger
3. imperialism = colonialism

Topic 7: Aircrafts have been increasingly used to transport fruits and vegetables to some
countries where such plants hardly grow or are out of season. Some people consider it a good
trend, but some people oppose it. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
There has been a steady increase in the demand for imports throughout the world in recent years,
including those perishable items, such as fruits and vegetables. Despite the boom in this business,
importing agricultural products is very often criticised as unnecessary and extravagant, especially when
air freight is involved. The criticism was correct in the past, but at the present time, there are indications
that this trade activity has brought various benefits.
At first, it is important to note that contrary to popular belief, imports are now increasingly affordable to the
general population. Thanks to the rapid development of the freight transport industry, air travel has
become an economical mode of transport, resulting in the subsequent decrease in the cost of importing.
Meanwhile, technical advance in the food processing industry has made it much easier to preserve fresh
fruits and vegetables over a long-haul air flight. Because of the wide availability of imported crops, there
are more varieties in the food market, leading to the drop in the price of imports. The supply of products
in the market is less likely to be influenced by seasonal factors, and an adequate intake of nutrition is
guaranteed for the general population throughout the year.
Another fact to note is that import and export normally go hand in hand, and a country that imports
goods from other countries does not necessarily suffer a loss. Trade is not unilateral but bilateral. Some
countries are noted for an agrarian economy, while others specialise in manufacturing industrial products.
Countries differ in their product structures because they have dissimilar natural resources, climates, and
geographical features. By adopting an enlightened policy and promoting trade activities with other
countries, a country can facilitate the exchange of goods, services and capital with the rest of the world
and promote economic development.
On the negative side, some countries might become addicted to importing goods and overlook the
possibility of developing a self-contained economy. Scarcity of resource or lack of technology might
disable a country from producing crops to feed its population, but it cannot be taken as an excuse for
relying heavily on imports. Government funding in scientific research can make it possible to achieve a
breakthrough and increase the yield, thereby resolving food supply crisis.
Countries are therefore advised to promote international trade and to develop their own industries
simultaneously. Positive attitudes toward importing goods from other countries demonstrate a
government's stance on the international trade, although the government should also prevent itself from
relying on imported goods.

Topic 8: Millions of dollars are spent on space research every year. Some people argue that the
money should be spent on improving living standards on Earth. Do you agree or disagree?
In recent years, there have been more and more countries involved and interested in long-term space
projects. Because of the enormous research expenditures incurred, the value of space projects has been
disputed. Some people suggest that government funding should be diverted toward improving the living
standard of ordinary people. In evaluating the merits of space ambition, one should adopt a broader
perspective. The investment in space research can be paid off someday in the future.
The first reason to support it is that our planet is now facing an unprecedented resource problem, which
can be tackled only by discovering and mining new resources on other planets. The overuse or scarcity
of some resources on the Earth is a severe problem. Rare metals, such as gold or silver, will eventually
be depleted, as industrial production expands. These metals and other natural resources, although rare
on Earth, might abound on other planets. In that case, conducting space research is a promising
adventure.
Meanwhile, the world's population is now growing to a stage where there are too many people for the
planet to support, highlighting the need to seek land suitable for people's re-settlement off the planet.
Even if new urban developments are able to accommodate the increasing population, water and
electricity supply, waste treatment, sewage disposal and sanitation will become unmanageable for the
capacity of our planet. As there are countless planets orbiting stars throughout the universe, one can be
confident that at least one of them is suitable for our second home planet. Mars, for example, bearing a
close resemblance to the Earth, is considered a potential backup.
In addition to searching for a shelter for future generations, space programmes contribute considerably to
the well-being of the Earth in some other aspects. For example, by monitoring the ozone hole, global
warming, the loss of rain forests and other environmental threats to human survival, remote sensing
satellites help people trace the recovery from the worst environmental threats and thereby improve the
quality of life. Meanwhile, space research provides a new platform on which scientists can carry out
experiments and make new discoveries in a variety of fields, such as agriculture.
As suggested above, in locating new resources, positioning new settlements, addressing environmental
concerns and facilitating scientific discovery, space research will prove to be not only worthwhile, but also
crucial to the survival and sustainability of human civilisation.

Topic 9: Space travel to the Moon is often cited as one giant leap for mankind. Yet some people
argue that this achievement made little difference to our daily lives. What is your opinion?
The idea of travelling through space, even living and working on other planets, has fascinated people for
centuries. Despite numerous setbacks and daunting expenditures, travelling in the outer space has never
failed to attract people's attention and provoke controversy. Sixty years after the first Moon landing,
people question whether the feat, previously thought of as a giant leap for mankind, has substantially
benefited people's lives. In my opinion, landing on the Moon has enormous relevance for the quality of
life, albeit not always explicit.
The first implication of Moon landing is reflected in the likelihood of travelling on other planets. Moon, as
the object in the outer space closet to the Earth, can serve as a launch site for the journeys to other
planets. Having no atmosphere, the Moon is a permanent base for people to observe the universe easily
and provide them with sufficient evidence they require for decision making on a great many significant
issues, which are likely to have direct impact on them. For example, one can team more about the treat of
potentially hazardous objects that are likely to hit the Earth and destroy our civilisation.
Another remarkable breakthrough made by the Moon landing is that it reignites people's enthusiasm in
the natural sciences. When today's youths become increasingly interested in such subjects as commerce,
finance and business, space exploration successfully attracts and retains talents in space-related
technologies. These young minds are convinced that unravelling the unknown of the universe is
feasible, despite many challenges. They are inspired to think for the future, instead of being preoccupied
with contemporary issues only.
It should also be noted that the Moon has water, the basic resource for people's survival, and it abounds
in solar energy, a clean and readily obtainable resource. It is also believed that minerals are plentiful
there to be exploited. Some day, if people are forced to move off the Earth, the Moon might be the best
shelter. Although people have not yet fully explored this possibility at this stage, preliminary investigation
is imperative.
Based on the above-mentioned facts, one can conclude that the Moon landing greatly impacts on distant
future, although its effect is not apparent for the time being. The Moon is the eventual gateway to other
planets and potentially the place of residence for the future generations. The scientific knowledge and
economic benefits to be gained by building a sustainable Moon base are huge.

Topic 10: Some people argue that the government should spend money on public services and
facilities, but not on the arts. Do you agree or disagree?
The role of arts in modern life is unique, providing people with entertainment and yielding various
psychological rewards, such as relief from stress. Despite these benefits, the arts have been taken as
luxury goods in many cases. It is suggested that public money of a city should be concentrated in projects
like public facilities, which are more likely to bring immediate benefits to the public, rather than the arts.
There are a number of facts indicating that this position is right.1`z
Public facilities, widely accepted as one of the main precursors to a city's development, should be one of
the highest priorities. Those underdeveloped cities in particular, should direct sufficient funding toward
public facilities. While municipal office buildings, courthouses and post offices are essential components
of public services, libraries, hospitals, parks, playing fields, gymnasiums and swimming pools are
available to the public for social, educational, athletic and cultural activities. By boosting spending on
public facilities, cities are more capable to satisfy the needs of citizens and improve their standard of
living.
In addition to social benefits, there are economic merits that public facilities can offer to communities. An
integrated transport network (maritime, land and inland waterways transport and civil aviation), for
example, promises the smooth and speedy movement of goods and people in a city. Industrial products,
as well as agricultural produce of a city, can be delivered to other cities in exchange for steady income. Of
equal importance are public Internet facilities. Providing access to information by improving Internet and
other telecommunications facilities has relevance to the ease with which businesses in a city receive,
process, utilise, and send information. It is no exaggeration to say that entrepreneurs, either from home or
abroad, will first examine the infrastructure of a city before deciding whether to pursue business
opportunities there.
The arts, by comparison, although enabling people to see the world and the human condition differently
and to see a truth one might ignore before, do not merit government spending. The first reason is that the
arts — referring to music, film and literature altogether—are more likely to attract the investment of the
private sector than public facilities. Businesspeople continue to invest in the arts in the expectation of
earning lump sum income and the arts in return, continue to flourish without the government spending.
Meanwhile, the arts are a key component of a culture and naturally passed down from one generation to
another. Unlike public facilities, they require no money to survive.
It is therefore clear that construction of public facilities should be given the foremost consideration. The
concern about the well-being of individual citizens and that of a city is more acute than the apprehension
about the survival and prospects of the arts, something that businesses have a stake in.

Topic 11: Some people argue that the government should spend money only on medical care and
education but not on theatres or sport stadiums. Do you agree or disagree?
Where public money goes is an issue of broad interest to the general public. Some people advocate that
the government should fund the sectors that bring tangible and immediate benefits to the public, such as
medical care and educational systems, while opponents suggest that those large urban developments,
such as stadiums and theatres, are worth government funding. In my opinion, the possibility remains that
the two opinions can be reconciled and the government can coordinate budgeting to meet the needs of
both.
Medical care is essential to the economic and social well-being of a country, particularly of an
underdeveloped country. Both empirical knowledge and academic research suggest that making
education available throughout a country and eliminating illiteracy can pave the way for economic
development. By receiving education, children from impoverished families can shake off poverty, climb
high in the social ladder and live better off. Education also allows citizens to secure employment and cam
regular income, thereby maintaining or improving their standard of living. For a country as a whole,
education is linked to skilled workforce and to high productivity, affecting both resource use and national
output.
Government interference in healthcare and medical services is also highly recommended. Availability of
affordable medical service is a mark of the social and economic development of a country. By providing
the needy people with medical service, a country can inspire the loyally of citizens. People feel assured
living and working in a country where they can be given medical service when unemployed, sick, injured
or retired. By comparison, if they cannot afford the high cost of visiting the clinic, hospitalisation, or buying
drugs, they are less likely to enjoy their living. Social solidarity will eventually suffer.
Although education and medical services are fundamental to the stability and development of a country, it
is not to say that theatres or sport stadiums have no redeeming feature. In the hierarchy of human
needs, those needs for food, shelter and health are among the basic. After these targets are attained,
people turn to higher aspirations, entertainment and recreation. Leisure facilities like stadiums are
cinemas satisfy people's needs in these fields. A game between one's motherland and a visiting country
can raise people's sense of national pride and ethnical unity. The cinema brings artistic pleasure to
everyone.
To draw a conclusion, the decision to finance theatres or sport stadiums depends on the financial
situation of a country. When an economy comes to maturity, the launch of recreational and entertainment
projects of this kind is reasonable.

Topic 12: The advocates of international aid believe that countries have a moral obligation to help
each other, while the opponents consider it unnecessary, because money is misspent by the
governments that receive it. Discuss these two points of view and give your opinion.
International aid refers to money, equipment or services that are provided by a country or international
organisation for countries that need them, known as recipient countries. It reflects a moral ideal of
mankind, that is, mutual support and interdependence, according to those donor countries. However,
some people adopt an opposing view and tend to believe that aid money can be misspent by the
recipient countries. My view is that people should not withhold the provision of money or material
resources in aid.
Humanitarian aid is a moral imperative. Members of the global community have the responsibility to
provide relief to each other, especially to those disadvantaged members and those victims of natural
disasters and civil unrest. This aid is essential to the homeless and useful in helping recipient countries
return to their normal state after major disturbances. For example, with the humanitarian relief obtained
worldwide on an annual basis, victims of natural disasters (such as tsunami, draught, flood) throughout
the world can recover rapidly and rebuild their homeland.
Humanitarian relief is meanwhile an instrument to promote peace and security. The deep-rooted hostility
between some countries can result from the disparity in the material standard of living, or from physical
distance. The provision of humanitarian relief opens up the possibility of cultural, economic and social
interaction between countries, and thereby easing tension. Recipient countries can thus participate in the
global economy, a strategic step in shaking off poverty.
Admittedly, aid money is sometimes misused or spent on unintended destinations, but these pitfalls can
never overshadow the benefits. Misuse can instead raise awareness of the global community to a venal
regime and pressure the recipient country to adjust its system. Meanwhile, it can be tackled by tight
regulations and scrutiny. In general, the abuse of international aid is an isolated event, so its effect
should not be overstated.
From what has been discussed above, one can reach a conclusion that the role of humanitarian relief is
not only to deliver urgent assistance to populations in need but also to strengthen ties between countries.
Although fraud and corruption occur every now and then, they can be addressed in a way that enhances
future aid endeavours.

Topic 13: Some people think the government should pay for health care and education, but there
is no agreement about whether it is the government's responsibility. What is your opinion?
Not surprisingly, health care and education are two areas of government priority in most, if not all, of the
countries around the world. However, many tend to see the both areas as citizens' individual
responsibilities. This belief is partly right. The government and the citizens should be jointly responsible
for the cost of education and health care service.
The first point to note is that government funding for education is of great benefit to families with children
and the society as a whole. There are occasions on which parents cannot afford the cost of their
education and their savings are meagre, compared with the formidable tuition fees being charged by a
tertiary institution. Poor academic experience can impair one's employability and put him or her into a
seriously disadvantage position. Government spending addresses this issue by providing aspiring
students with access to a comfortable learning experience. In this knowledge-based society, possibly
nothing is more valuable than the access to education.
Similarly, an individual should receive health care treatments, especially lifesaving ones, whether he or
she has the means to pay. Access to health care is a basic human right and a measure to ensure a
decent standard of living. In the event of the need for urgent or emergency treatment, government
spending enables sufferers to receive immediate health care services. This is the fulfilment of the
government's responsibility to its members. Needless to say, health care treatment costs are, in general,
unaffordable to low income families. Government's financial support is therefore required.
Despite these facts, it is immoral that individuals shirk responsibility and try to pass all medical costs on to
the government. In view of the fact that the government raises financing primarily from taxpayers' income,
individual's over-exploitation of a health care system will in fact add a heavy burden on those hardworking
and good-hearted citizens. Particular attention should be paid on those people whose health problems
are attributed to their poor personal living habits (smoking, drinking, substance use or inactive lifestyle). In
such cases, they should not be entitled for public medical services.
As suggested above, education and healthcare services are of primary importance to citizens, and the
government has the responsibility to ensure that those services are available and affordable. However, it
is not to say that the government should bear the costs of all healthcare and educational services that the
citizens currently enjoy.

Topic 14: People should keep all the money they earn and should not pay taxes to the state. Do
you agree or disagree?
The role of taxation is providing funds necessary for carrying out a variety of functions in a country.
However, to many taxpayers, especially employers, paying tax remains the biggest headache. In my
opinion, tax revenue is essential to a country. Below are some of its main functions.
Although many taxpayers see income tax as an appropriation of their earnings, tax is in fact a relief to
taxpayers and their families, for example, by providing a safeguard against unemployment and a solution
to other problems that they may confront in life. For example, those who lose their earning capabilities
because of injuries, diseases and disabilities are entitled to the government's financial support, derived
mainly from tax revenue. There is no point in denying that tax is the principal source of finance that
sustains many of the benefits offered by the welfare system of a country. Although most workers are not
the beneficiaries currently, they will count on these benefits in their later years (as pensioners). So will
their dependents (children and parents).
Taxation is meanwhile an effective tool by which a society can achieve the redistribution of income and
close the gap between haves and have-nuts. In most countries, as a general rule, the higher the
personal income, the higher the income tax. By imposing different tax rates, the government is able to
distribute the tax burden across social classes, reducing income disparity between the rich and the poor.
Corporate tax is deemed by business as a regular cost, which must be kept to a minimum, but it is not
necessarily a bane. By levying different types of tax, the government can exert an influence on
macroeconomic performance, which in turn influences the income of the business world. When the
economy is on the verge of a recession, the government can reduce the tax and present tax incentives,
which proves to be an effective policy in reviving the economy. By contrast, during the periods of growth,
the government can raise the tax rate so as to prevent an overheated economy and combat inflation. It is
fair to say that tax is one of the main tools in establishing a healthy environment conducive to business's
sustained growth.
What have been discussed above are the benefits brought by taxation, all being essential to a country, its
businesses and individual taxpayers. Although many taxpayers feel pressured by taxes, they will
eventually benefit from the taxes they have paid and should therefore bear tax liabilities.

8. incentive = encouragement

Topic 15: It is widely accepted that people who have post-school qualifications earn a higher
salary than those less educated do. University students should, therefore, pay all the full cost
incurred over the course of obtaining a college education. To what extent do you agree or
disagree?
With the labour intensive economy gradually giving way to knowledge-focused economy, the access to
higher education has become an issue of broad interest. The proposal to charge all university students
with tuition fees and allow no exemption arises mainly from the concern that tertiary education has to
compete with many other urgent demands for public funds and struggle with underfunding. I believe that
this policy, if implemented, will have an accumulative effect on the well-being of either individual
students or the society as a whole.
When laying the hope of future development over students, the government cannot shirk from the
responsibility to finance them. The sustained growth of a country rests on young talents. In this sense,
the government is investing, not spending money. A standard example is America, a country investing
multimillion dollars in higher education on an annual basis and sponsoring students' study by different
forms of aid, such as scholarships, subsidies, allowances and student loans. It can be expected that
these well-educated aspiring people, after finishing their education, will constitute a main drive of a
slate's growth. Moreover, the government should plough a reasonable proportion of tax revenue, most
being sourced from parents, back to their children.
Meanwhile, it is worth mentioning that some schools tend to force a complex of charges over students,
with the aim to extend their profit margin. Ignorant of their not-for-profit nature, many universities might
deviate from their most important tasks, such as improving teaching quality. The persistence of this
problem will make their academic service much less credible and quality of teaching and faculty staff
uneven. A university can cover its expense by various means, such as the receipt of donation, or the
government's funding, instead of levying a high fee over students.
The reasons cited above have justified why university students need not pay more than a lower payment.
While depending on young generations, the society should be more considerate of their situation. The
effort to encourage tertiary education participation will pay back sooner, rather than later.

Topic 16: Only government action can solve housing shortages in big cities. To what extent do
you agree or disagree?
Housing shortage has become a serious urban social issue in many parts of the world. It has been
argued that only when the government has taken actions, can demand for homes be fulfilled. Yet to the
best of my knowledge, the government alone cannot cope well with housing shortages.
One of the main objections to government intervention is that it would hamper the private sector and
simultaneously pose a huge burden upon the state. In countries where the government is on a tight
budget and the homeless population is large, the involvement of private property developers is required
and recommended. Not only does it release the government from the burden of funding large-sized
construction programmes but it also fosters the housing industry. Given its role in attracting public
consumption and accelerating economic development, the housing industry should be at the mercy of
the market, rather than the government.
Another drawback of state control over the housing market is that it could result in the stagnancy of
construction quality, functionality, facilities and other aspects of housing. Apartment blocks or other
residential constructions would be built in a similar pattern and the cityscape would be monotonous.
Excessive uniformity, especially in the size and number of rooms, will fail to meet comprehensive
requirements raised by citizens on properties.
Despite these objections, government intervention is essential in some segments of the market and can
render more resistance to citizens. Single parents, the people with disabilities and other disadvantaged
people are among those who are not ready to afford commercial housing. UK-government can provide
them either with housing allowance to purchase their private properties or directly with economical
houses.
As indicated above, in addressing homelessness and inadequate housing, the joint effort of both
government and private sector is required. While government intervention would impede the property
market and negatively influence the supply and demand relationship, government assistance is essential
for low-income families and vulnerable individuals in need of housing.

Topic 17: There are social, medical and technical problems associated with the use of mobile
phones. What form do these problems take? Do problems of using mobile phones outweigh the
benefits?
Across the world, especially the wealthier parts, the mobile phone has taken the place of telephone as an
electronic telecommunication device, with the majority of the adult, teenager and even child owning one.
As this technology has become rife, its drawbacks, which can be seen from social, medical and technical
perspectives, deserve people's greatest attention.
Similar to many other hi-tech products, such as computers, mobile phones have detrimental effects on
users' health. For example, long-time heavy phone users seem to be more prone to certain types of
cancers, although evidence to date is inconclusive. Another lethal health concern is the link between
mobile phones and road accidents. It is argued that motorists have a much higher risk of collisions and
losing control of the vehicle when driving and talking on the phone simultaneously, despite sometimes
using hands-free systems.
When the mobile phone has brought considerable convenience, people's obsession with convenience
has meanwhile caused enormous disturbance. That's why the use of mobile phones has been prohibited
in many public places, such as libraries, theatres, hospitals and even transports, such as trains, buses
and aircrafts. Speaking at increased volume is considered impolite or even offensive. In schools, students
are required to switch off cell phones before the class begins because mobile phones are responsible for
a high amount of class disruptions.
When its downside persists, the mobile phone has proven indispensable in modern life. It is handhold,
lightweight, portable and multi-functioned, allowing users to send text messages, exchange music files,
make voice calls, browse Internet, and so forth. Meanwhile, within twenty years, mobile phones are
expected to be more pervasive as technical advances and mass manufacture will make them low-cost
personal items. Given those factors, the mobile phone will continue to perform its role as a key social tool,
by which one keeps in touch with others much more easily than did the generations before.
As suggested above, the contribution of the mobile phone to the society is prominent and people's
dependence on it for communication is an irreversible trend, although it has a number of problems that
should be well handled.
1. device = equipment = appliance = instrument
2. rife = widespread = prevalent = ubiquitous = predominant = rampant
3. prone to = susceptible to = vulnerable to
4. lethal = fatal = deadly = life-damaging

7. disturbance = annoyance = interruption
8. disruption = interference = distraction
9. pervasive = prevalent = omnipresent
10. irreversible = permanent = irrevocable = unalterable

Topic 18: Do you agree that modern technology has given us more leisure time than before?
In the history of mankind, possibly no century witnessed more progress in technology than the 20th
century did. People have become increasingly interested in assessing the correlation between
technological development and leisure time. As far as I am concerned, people's leisure time has been
shrinking as a result of the tremendous advance in modern technology.
Admittedly, thanks to modern technology, people can thus spend less time on compulsory activities (e.
g., working), but it should also be noted that other non-compulsory activities have come to consume a
larger proportion of people's after-work life, such as education. If leisure refers to the time spent in noncompulsory activities, people's leisure time has in fact contracted. The growing concern on education has
increased the likelihood that people are willing to give up their leisure lives for educational opportunities.
This trend is attributed mainly to competition and fears of job loss, causing people to turn to on-the-job
training and education for secured employment. Another incentive is the increasing flexibility of
educational institutions. Worthwhile knowledge can be passed on from one generation of workers to
another in different forms of education, such as televised teaching and online courses. It comes at the
cost of their leisure time.
People's leisure lives are continuously eroded also because of ubiquity of modern technological tools (e.
g., computers with Internet access and telecommunications equipment). It is noteworthy that people now
take fewer and shorter vacations following the increase in the number of technology-based activities. For
example, cell phones and laptops make people accessible to their superiors wherever they go and
wherever they are. People are more stressed than any generation before. Meanwhile, people now have
to engage in more everyday processes than ever before, such as shopping, food ordering, and so on. It
seems that the time budget is burdened because more time should be invested in activities that were
previously ignored or unnoticed.
While posing a threat on people's leisure lives, technologies might on other occasions, give workers more
flexibility in controlling their work and more quality time after work. A traditional workweek has been cut,
as the amount of manual work continues to decline because of automation. The availability of various
means of transport has released working people from lengthy commutes. The line between work and
private life is much more blurred, with many workers shopping, checking private emails and reading
newspaper online even when working.
From what has been discussed, one understands that the development of technology has tremendous
impacts on people's daily lives, although the exact impacts are not conclusive. When the proliferation of
new technologies, such as computers, allows people to manage their own working time and
accommodate family needs and lifestyle choices, it has locked them in a struggle to cope with more
tasks in daily lives.
1. shrink = decline = diminish = contract
2. compulsory = required
3. after-work life = personal life
4. pass on.. .to = hand on = transfer
5. ubiquity = prevalence
6. commute = the journey between home and place of work
7. proliferation = increase = mushrooming
8. accommodate = give room for

Topic 19: Earlier technological development brought more changes to the life of ordinary people
than recent technological development do. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Undoubtedly, people are now enjoying one of the greatest technological boom times in human history.
Although there is a consensus that social changes coincide normally with technological advances, it is a
contentious issue whether the earlier technology (e.g., machines, cars, airplanes) impacts on people's
lives to a larger extent than does the recent technology (e.g., Internet, computers). In my opinion, the
recent improvements in technology have more far-reaching consequences.
While the invention of automobiles was a landmark in the technological evolution of humankind, the
widespread use of computers and telecommunications technology has dramatically reshaped the nature
of the society. One might have benefited a lot from one's improved ability to move rapidly from one place
to another because of the availability of automobiles, yet this benefit has been discounted because of
the advent of the Internet. With Internet access, the world has become accessible to people and one can
perform many tasks at home (e.g., grocery shopping) and let their fingers do the walking.
Lifestyles are changed by recent technologies in equal measure. Before computers and the Internet were
created, most working people struggled with a lack of leisure time and the balance between family life and
work life. They were fully occupied by employment and various chores, such as shopping. With Internet,
they are now able to spend much less time on those routine, dull activities and lead active leisure lives.
Modern technologies also account for the evolution of people's perception of society. People tend to
develop, modify and repurpose technology for their own use. Interdependent, previously a core virtue of
many societies, is now undermined. Cell phones allow people to insulate their private interactions from
the culture around them and to create their own micro-cultures. The mobility given by modern transport
meanwhile, allures them to leave their place of birth and work and live elsewhere. Cultural norms are
subject to modification and the communal lifestyle is going out of fashion.
In conclusion, whether one likes it or not, technology will continue to evolve, with the resulting changes
impacting the lifestyles and cultural norms continuously. While the earlier technology had enhanced the
quality of life and generated revenue for people, the recent technology has made them lead a different
lifestyle from previous generations.
1. landmark = turning point = watershed event
2. humankind = mankind
3. reshape = reform = restructure = remodel
4. discount = impair
5. dull = tedious = monotonous = dreary
6. norm = custom = normal ways of behaving
7. communal = collective
21
Topic 20: It is said that the fast pace of our everyday life, as a direct result of the rapid
development of telecommunications technology and travel industry, has negative effects on
individuals, nations and the globe. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Not surprisingly, many aspects of people's daily lives have undergone considerable changes because of
the recent development in technology. It is a particular concern that the pace of everyday life is becoming
faster, resulting from the development in cars, air travel, telecommunications technology and the Internet.
As well as benefits, this trend is to bring problems.
On the positive side, the fast rhythm of life requires people to enhance efficiency when working and then
allows them to enjoy longer leisure time. With the advance in telecommunications, people can make
inquires by phone, instead of travelling long distances. Internet access makes it possible for one to
perform various tasks without leaving their offices. Even though people have to travel every now and then
for meeting business partners, visiting clients in other cities or other purposes, modern transport networks
reduce the amount of time they spend on commutes.
The acceleration of the pace of life also implies the expansion of people's social circle. In the past, social
relationships were limited by physical factors such as geographical distance and low mobility, but
nowadays, one can travel further and gel acquainted with more people with those technological
advances, such as the railroad, the automobile and the telephone. For instance, the rapid penetration of
telecommunications technology' has made the mobile phone a key social tool and people rely on their
mobile phone address book to keep in touch with their friends.
On the negative side, the fast-paced lifestyle is responsible for the upsurge in lifestyle-related problems.
Jobs become demanding and require workers' full commitment, resulting in their depression and
pressure. Underneath the facade of continued contraction of official working hours, employees are
actually working longer, primarily because fax, e-mail or other communication devices have made them
accessible to their supervisors, colleagues and customers after work. They have to respond instantly to
voice and email messages from others. Private life has to be sacrificed.
According to the facts outlined above, the doubts about the negative effects of the acceleration of pace of
life are not well-grounded. People now enjoy greater well-being, which is reflected in more quality family
time, less travel-related stress and close contact with friends and family members. However, they might
have to accept frequent intrusions as a by-product of convenient communication.
1. penetration = invasion = permeating
2. facade = disguise = cover-up
3. contraction = reduction
4. intrusion = interruption
5. by-product = unwanted product = anything produced in the course of making another thing
22
Topic 21: Nowadays people can carry out tasks such as shopping and banking even business
transactions without meeting each other face to face. What are the effects on individuals and the
society?
With the wide use of the Internet, the way people conduct business and live their lives has vastly
changed. Many businesses have websites that allow people to conduct business, execute deals and
finish transactions online, as an alternative to a lengthy commute. Although people are thus free from the
constraints of geography and time, there are some consequences of this trend that demand attention.
Supposedly, with Internet access, people are able to perform transactions and to do shopping without
leaving home, but meanwhile they have to pay a heavy price for it. One of the most negative aspects is,
for instance, that it alters their social behaviours and habits. For many people, to spend part of the day on
the Internet is quite normal. It can be expected that being addicted to Internet use, most of home
telecommuters or Internet users will become socially isolated. Poor social life and feelings of loneliness
are those problems that are very often found among heavy users.
It is also likely that people have become increasingly accustomed to living in a world that appreciates
convenience and inactivity and they do not want to evade those maxims. It gives explanation of why the
sedentary lifestyle is now prevailing and why people spend little time on leisure or recreational activities.
Time has been spent in front of the computer or Internet. The net result is that they suffer serious loss of
vision, back pain and obesity. It is true that many people finally end up with struggling with deteriorating
health.
Despite the negative effects, the Internet has its positive implications to the well-being of society. Online
shoppers are able to seek out the lowest prices for items or services. Manufacturers, therefore, have to
improve product quality and lower price levels in an effort to win the favour of consumers and secure a
stable market share. Telecommuting-working at home using a computer is a solution to traffic congestion,
the urban air pollution and petrol use.
As outlined above, people's growing obsession with Internet use, such as online shopping or banking, has
both immediate and long-term impacts on health, social involvement, lifestyles and emotional well-being.
Although it is of great value from a net surfer's perspective, people should step up efforts to minimise the
negative effects.
1. alternative= replacement = substitute
2. supposedly = theoretically = purportedly
3. price = penalty
4. telecommuter = teleworker
5. social life = spending time with friends and other people
6. inactivity = idleness = immobility = indolence = sluggishness
7. maxim = rule = principle = tenet = guideline = motto = dictum = axiom = truism
23
Topic 22: Many people are optimistic about the 21st century and expect scientists to make
positive changes to the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree with their optimism? What
changes would you like to see in the new century?
As the 21st century continues to unfold, many technologies have arisen, most of which were previously
out of the reach of people's comprehension. While some people are content with the current standard of
living and tend to owe it to technical advances, an opposing point of view is that not all these changes to
lives are positive. I am of the opinion that there is still room for improvement and many problems remain
unsolved.
The continued improvement in technology undoubtedly accelerates industrialisation but meanwhile leads
to the deterioration of the natural environment. Accompanied by technological development, many
problems, such as over-exploitation of natural resources, intense use of artificial fertilisers, reliance on
automobiles and deforestation, have arisen and intensified. Even worse, little progress has been made
toward addressing these problems, possibly because implementing environmentally friendly policies will
inevitably impede the development of energy-intensive industries. That is why the use of petrol continues
to climb, despite the fact that many countries pledge to curb petrol use and discover or invent alternative
resources.
Another problem is that many technologies have put people at great risks and highlighted the need for
innovation. For example, the spread of the Internet is directly responsible for people's sedentary lifestyle
and many health problems, such as obesity. The rise of the fast food industry, owing mainly to the
development in the food processing technology, is linked to diabetes, stroke and heart disease. Many
stress-related diseases are attributed to the increasingly fierce competition in society, a result of
technological development. Fears of job loss have become one of the most common sources of social
anxiety in these years, as computerisation has undermined the traditional position of labour by eliminating
jobs. All these problems demand quick solutions.
Some other problems are associated with technology as well, although the actual impacts remain
unforeseen. For example, the future of genetic engineering, a radical new technology intending to
introduce genetic changes to a species, either animals or plants, and to increase crop yield, is dim. To
date there is no compelling evidence to show that GE food has a good track record for human safety,
especially when it has been found related to thousands of poisoning cases.
Overall, whether technology is a blessing to people remains yet to be seen, so does what the 21st
century can bring to them. It seems to be a fact that whenever a new technology arises, there must be
some problems that follow. When people are impressed by the benefits brought by a new technology, it is
important to evaluate its negative impacts and take precautions in advance.
1. unfold = display = disclose = clarify = become known = reveal
2. content = satisfied = pleased
3. deterioration = corrosion-weakening = worsening
4. artificial = man-made = synthetic = non-natural
5. track record = past performance = reputation = background = history = profile
6. precaution = preventative measure = safeguard
24
Topic 23: Many employees may work at home with modern technology. Some people claim that it
benefits only workers, but not employers. Do you agree or disagree?
The spread of telecommunication technology — using the Internet, telephone, fax, scanners or text
messaging — has opened up a new range of possibilities for working at home. Discussion has centred on
whether it represents a benefit to workers alone, but not employers. In my opinion, employers can take
full advantage of home working as well.
By allowing employees to work at home, employers can widen the base from which they recruit and boost
the chances of capitalising on rich human capital. For instance, parents with childcare responsibilities
and those with disabilities prefer to work at home. Distance between their work place and their place of
residence has never ceased to be a problem. Homeworking enables working people to perform their jobs
at ease, and thus gives employers more options in human resource use.
Another benefit obtained from home-working is the boost for staff motivation. By working at home,
employees can manage their time on their own and strike a balance between work and rest. Similarly
important is that, without the presence of their immediate supervisors, they feel less stressful and more
comfortable. Those two factors both play a part in boosting their productivity and job satisfaction.
Apart from those benefits, homeworking might have its drawbacks. A challenge that employers have to
face is the difficulty in managing and monitoring employees' performance. Whether employees are as
likely to meet a deadline when working at home as they are in the workplace remains unclear. Similarly
difficult is to maintain team spirit because employees have limited interaction between each other.
Furthermore, staff training, an integral part of increasing human capital, is not practical in a business
where homeworking predominates.
Therefore, it is clear that although employers can benefit a lot from integrating homeworking into his or
her business, e.g., introducing more flexibility and increasing employees' job satisfaction, they should
work out methods to prevent the problems that are likely to arise from this move.
1. represent = stand for = signify
2. capitalise on = take (full) advantage of = make the most of = benefit from
3. work place = place of work
4. at ease = comfortably = free from anxiety
5. productivity = output = efficiency = yield
6. team spirit = cohesion = unity
7. interaction = communication = contact

BỘ TÀI CHÍNH
V/v: trả lời kiến nghị tại Hội nghị đối thoại doanh nghiệp
Kính gửi: Công ty Dược phẩm Sao Kim
(Đ/c: KCN Quang Minh, Mê Linh, Vĩnh Phúc)
Về nội dung kiến nghị của Công ty dược phẩm Sao Kim nêu tại Hội nghị đối thoại Doanh nghiệp về Thuế năm 2007, Tổng cục Thuế có ý kiến như sau:
Câu hỏi:
Công ty trả tiền hoa hồng môi giới khi bán hàng ra nước ngoài cho người nước ngoài không cư trú ở Việt Nam. Như vậy, khoản chi này Công ty chúng tôi có phải nộp thuế nhà thầu theo Thông tư số 05/2005/TT-BTC ngày 11/01/2005 hay không?
Trả lời:
Tại điểm 2 Mục I Phần A Thông tư số 05/2005/TT-BTC ngày 11/01/2005 của Bộ Tài chính hướng dẫn về chế độ thuế áp dụng đối với các tổ chức nước ngoài không có tư cách pháp nhân Việt Nam và cá nhân nước ngoài kinh doanh hoặc có thu nhập phát sinh ở Việt Nam quy định: “Tổ chức nước ngoài, cá nhân nước ngoài kinh doanh nhưng không hiện diện tại Việt Nam, có thu nhập phát sinh tại Việt Nam, kể cả các khoản thu nhập từ chuyển giao công nghệ, thu nhập về tiền bản quyền, thu nhập từ hoạt động kinh doanh dịch vụ khác của các cá nhân người nước ngoài không hiện diện thương mại tại Việt Nam” là đối tượng áp dụng của Thông tư này.
Tại điểm 2 Mục II phần C Thông tư số 05/2005/TT-BTC (nêu trên) hướng dẫn: “Trong phạm vi 15 ngày kể từ ngày thực hiện thanh toán tiền cho Nhà thầu nước ngoài, Bên Việt Nam lập tờ khai, xác định số thuế GTGT và thuế TNDN Nhà thầu nước ngoài phải nộp (Phụ lục số 02-NTNN ban hành ban hành kèm theo Thông tư này) và thực hiện nộp số thuế đã khai vào Ngân sách Nhà nước”.
Căn cứ các hướng dẫn trên, trường hợp người nước ngoài không cư trú ở Việt Nam nên không thực hiện chế độ kế toán Việt Nam, có khoản thu nhập phát sinh ở Việt Nam là tiền hoa hồng môi giới do Công ty dược phẩm Sao Kim trả thì Công ty dược phẩm Sao Kim có trách nhiệm kê khai nộp thuế thay cho nhà thầu nước ngoài theo hướng dẫn tại Thông tư số 05/2005/TT-BTC (nêu trên).
Tổng cục Thuế trả lời để Công ty dược phẩm Sao Kim biết liên hệ với cơ quan thuế địa phương để thực hiện.

["Việt Nam trên báo chí nước ngoài".](https://vn.sputniknews.com/tags/keyword_Viet_Nam_tren_bao_chi_nuoc_ngoai/) [Cuộc chiến tranh ở Việt Nam.](https://vn.sputniknews.com/tags/event_chien_tranh_o_Viet_Nam/)Thời gian gần đây chủ đề này thường xuyên xuất hiện trên báo chí Mỹ, và ngày càng có nhiều thông tin về những hoạt động vinh danh "những người anh hùng" của cuộc chiến tranh đó. Trong số các bài báo được đăng tải gần đây trên các phương tiện truyền thông lớn nhất của Mỹ, ba bài viết đã thu hút sự chú ý của chúng tôi. "Lòng can đảm và tính hèn nhát trong chiến tranh Việt Nam" — đây là đầu đề của một bài viết đăng trên tạp chí [. Kể lại về bộ phim Những ngày cuối ở Việt Nam (Last Days in Vietnam) của đạo diễn Rory Kennedy, tác giả rút ra một kết luận đáng kinh ngạc: người Mỹ đã không có đủ ý chí để khuất phục Việt Nam. "Bộ phim của Kennedy nên làm cho chúng ta tức giận với thực tế rằng, Mỹ đã không đi đủ xa theo hướng này", — tác giả Kyle Smith viết. Một bài dài trên tờ](http://www.nationalreview.com/article/447285/last-days-vietnam-war-victory-squandered-congress) *National Review* *The*nói về các trực thăng chiến đấu mà Hoa Kỳ đã sử dụng tại Việt Nam. Các trực thăng đó đã được gọi là "con rồng ma quái "Puff" (Puff the Magic Dragon). Tác giả rất tự hào nói về hiệu quả hỏa lực của chúng cũng như về số lượng kỹ thuật quân sự và nhân lực của đối phương đã bị tiêu diệt tại Việt Nam. Trong bố cảnh này tờ [National Interest](http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/how-americas-ac-130-gunships-wreaked-havoc-vietnam-20364) [đăng tải một bài luận thật nổi bật. Tác giả là Anh Lê, người Mỹ gốc Việt:](http://www.sfexaminer.com/tragedy-vietnam-war) *San Francisco Examiner*
"Tại sao chúng ta đã xâm nhập vào một quốc gia có chủ quyền, đã giết hại người dân, phá hủy cơ sở hạ tầng và đất đai của nước này? Chúng ta cảm thấy ghê tởm khi nghe về việc sử dụng vũ khí hóa học ở Syria. Đâu là sự ghê tởm về các bom napalm và chất độc da cam mà Mỹ đã sử dụng ở Việt Nam? Hãy tập trung nỗ lực để không cho phép chính phủ của chúng ta gửi thanh niên Mỹ sang nước ngoài để giết và bị giết. Chúng ta nên lấy lại niềm tin vào việc — sự sống con người là điều thiêng liêng. Chiến tranh Holocaust tại Việt Nam khiến chúng ta phải làm như vậy," — tác giả viết.

[cho biết rằng,](http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2017-05/04/c_136257161.htm) *Tân Hoa Xã* [Tổng Bí thư Nguyễn Phú Trọng](https://vn.sputniknews.com/vietnam/201705043281810-viet-nam-tham-nhung-nguyen-phu-trong/)đã thông qua quyết định thành lập 8 đoàn công tác để tiến hành kiểm tra, giám sát việc điều tra, truy tố, xét xử các vụ án tham nhũng tại 20 tỉnh.
Bất chấp bê bối tham nhũng, nền kinh tế Việt Nam đang phát triển nhanh và thu hút ngày càng nhiều nhà đầu tư nước ngoài,
*VietNamNet Bridge*
Một bằng chứng cho sự phát triển năng động của Việt Nam là bài viết đăng trên tạp chí danh tiếng
*Rolling Stone.* [Việt Nam ](https://vn.sputniknews.com/tags/geo_Viet_Nam/)khiến mọi người tham gia chuyến đi này khâm phục. ![Con hổ Con hổ](https://vn.sputniknews.com/images/310/39/3103912.jpg)
"Việt Nam — một đất nước tuyệt đẹp. Người Việt Nam rất mến khách, đánh giá cao nền văn hóa, các giá trị truyền thống trong gia đình và các mối quan hệ giữa người với người. Việt Nam đang công nghiệp hóa và phát triển nhanh chóng. Nhưng, tôi đã thấy những hậu quả nghiêm trọng của quá trình này —những núi rác, "- một trong những người tham gia chuyến du lịch cho biết.
Thiên nhiên Việt Nam rất đa dạng và đáng chiêm ngưỡng. Nhưng, kẻ thù lớn nhất của môi trường là con người. Chẳng hạn như một ông Mỹ được nhắc đến trong tạp chí
[. Ông ta đã mang lậu từ Việt Nam đến Los Angeles 93 con chim xứ lạ giấu trong hành lý, mà một số thuộc loài đang trên bờ vực tuyệt chủng. Chỉ có 8 con chim còn sống sau chuyến bay dài từ thành phố Hồ Chí Minh đến Los Angeles.

Thành phố Melbourne, Australia. Ảnh:
Chồng tôi năm nay 37 tuổi, chúng tôi có một bé gái lên 3, xin các bạn độc giả của
*VnExpress* tư vấn giúp tôi các vấn đề trước khi đi Australia:
1. Hiện nay chồng tôi đang là kiến trúc sư, nhưng do thị trường bất động sản đang lao dốc, công ty nợ lương và các công ty khác đang có nguy cơ cắt giảm nhân công, do đó có người nhà tại Melbourne khuyên chồng tôi nên sang đó làm việc lao động phổ thông. Dự kiến chồng tôi sẽ đi theo diện du học để được thời gian trên 6 tháng, và có thể vừa học vừa làm, hiện tại tiếng Anh của chồng tôi không được tốt vì lâu rồi không dùng.
Cho tôi hỏi, khi người nhà bảo lãnh thì có thể ở lại Australia mấy năm, và dự tính nếu làm việc phổ thông thì trung bình mức lương thu nhập và các khoản chi sẽ là bao nhiêu/tháng nếu sinh sống tại Melbourne. Nếu đi theo diện vừa học vừa làm nhưng sang Australia chỉ làm thôi có được không?
2. Còn tôi hiện là kế toán, tiếng Anh của tôi đang ở mức trung bình khá, vì tôi đang làm việc cho một công ty nước ngoài. Dự định chồng tôi sang trước và tôi sẽ sang sau, cũng theo diện đi học master về kế toán 2 năm. Tôi vừa học và làm kế toán tại hệ thống cửa hàng của người thân.
Vậy trước khi sang tôi có phải thi qua chứng chỉ gì không, hoặc xin độc giả tư vấn giúp tôi có loại hình nào sang đó theo diện đi học nhưng dưới 2 năm và yêu cầu không cao khi thi tiếng Anh để đạt đi du học Australia?
3. Và trường hợp như vợ chồng tôi sinh sống tại Australia, nếu sinh em bé tại đó thì em bé sẽ được hưởng quyền lợi gì, có được nhập quốc tịch Australia và bố mẹ có được hưởng gì theo bé không?
4. Để được định cư tại Australia điều kiện cần là gì?
Mong các độc giả tư vấn giúp. Tôi xin chân thành cảm ơn.
**Nguyễn Trang**
