Let’s go to some bars to celebrate.”

II- Answer the following questions
1. Is it possible for parents and children to be friends?
=> I think it's possible because parents always understand children (including us). Parents care for them, help them from the smallest things. Parents never complain about their help for them. No one can understand children except parents. Parents always teach children right things. They want me to be a good person.
Parents can become children's best friend. It's true, parents always help them because of children's good life.
2. Do you have a five year plan for your life?
=> Yes, of course. My 5-year plan can be listed in a book. I have more dreams, more goals to strive to be a good person.
In the 9th grade I hope to do in many goals. I want to compete many contests such as: MOS, talent students, violympic, .... I always confident and always try to learn to achieve my dream. I know there will be many difficulties, but I will never give up.
I must succeed in grade 9 to be motivated to enter the Le Hong Phong school. I have the desire to participate in the 30-4 Olympic for high-school students, then I will participate in various movements.
And in the future I will go to medical school to become a doctor. I want to find many effective healing methods for everyone.
I want to become a community representative. I want to help those in need, I want them to have a better life. I want all children to go to school, because I think children deserve to learn a lot of knowledge.
3. How do you maintain your motivation when you fail?
I meditate to comfort myself. I started to think about my failure. I often wonder why, today to fail myself. Then I usually do things I like (like reading, hang out with friends, ...). Finally, I will do the work I have failed to seek the success for me.
I am always optimistic, so I always think failure is the mother of success.
4. Are you a determined person? Are you a stubborn person?
=> I’m a determined person. Because I am an ambitious person with a lot of determination to conquer everything. I wish I could achieve much success and always fulfill my dream. So I always have determination in doing something, for the future I do not regret.
=> I am also a stubborn person. It is not that I do not listen to the ideas of others. I am always clever in a debate. I can hear and understand the opinions of others but I still protect my opinions. Sometimes my opinions can be completely different from others, but I still think my opinion is correct. That's why everyone tells me why I'm stuck. ^^
5. Do you believe that the rich are growing richer, and the poor are growing poorer?
Yes Because the future of the people depends a lot on people. It is luck, talent and effort. If we always try and to be a good person, whether you are poor, you will have a prosperous life and you have the knowledge in the future. The rich people can not create a good life for themselves if they are lazy in work.
III) Writing:
What do you think the world would be like if some day we didn’t have a TV or Internet?
Thanks to the explosion of information technology, the mass media is growing, with the strongest growth being the Internet and television. Television and the Internet are the most modern inventions in human history. They help us a lot in making our lives better. Without TV and Internet, a lot of things would change.
The Internet is the most convenient tool to transmit large amounts of information at fast speeds to millions of people around the world. A computer connected to the Internet, everyone is like having an encyclopedia in their hand, they can search the information that you need. The amount of information that the Internet provides is unlimited. Televisions help us entertain after tired work time, we can relax with many attractive programs on TV. It even helps us learn more about our knowledge and our daily lives.
if some day we didn’t have a TV or Internet, I think there will be many good aspects and many bad aspects. Without televisions and internet, information is never updated hourly, daily fast. People can not know what's going on around them and around the world. People can not rapidly expand their relationships with their friends around the world through services such as chatting, email, social networking, etc. If it haven’t fot internet, people can not chat, exchange information and experience together in forums, sharing information, feelings ... on the blog. Without the televisions and Internet, people can not express their opinions on any subject through the feedback section of the articles. With no way to communicate using emails, instant messaging, , we would have to resort to those old ways of communicating with people. That’s not very convenient Besides that, people can not learn through online learning, especially learning foreign languages or searching and downloading learning materials online. Studying is more difficult if the world haven’t got internet.
Some TV shows may encourage you to pursue your dream in a certain field. There are a lot of programs that talk about celebrities, successful people, if you also work in the industry with them, you will learn a lot. Without television, you do not have such experiences.
But I think there will also have less trouble. People can avoid the bad news, the wrong information thanks to no speed of the internet. Young people do not neglect work, study, cause many bad effects life just because of internet addiction. They are not exposed to unhealthy games. Students can diligently solve a problem without copying verbatim from the internet. Watching television is definitely not good for your health. Watching TV makes children less obedient. In addition, this can also make it harder for you to fall asleep, to behave worse, to get lower scores at school. Television and internet can make us less contact with family and friends.
In general, I still like the invention of television and the internet in this world more. Because they help me create a more modern life.
