Tips for IELTS writing part 2

- a/an/the/none (cố gắng đọc bài mẫu và nhớ từ nào hay đi vs mạo từ nào để sử dụng như một thói quen, phần này tuy đơn giản nhg hs sai rất nhiều và cũng hay bị trừ điểm) Ex: the environment, the Internet, the state/government, the food industry - The X of Y (cực kỳ được ưa chuộng trg Writing part 2) Ex: the development of countries, the increased use of sth - Đặc biệt chú ý: + KO dùng you, your trong part 2 + I có thể dung ở Intro, Conclusion, topic sentences + Cannot, không bao giờ viết tắt trong part 2, có lười mấy giờ cũng viết ra để tạo thói quen tốt, I am thay vì I’m, It is thay vì it’s + more and more phải chuyển thành a growing number of Ví dụ e muốn nói “more and more people…” em nên viết thành “a growing number of people…” a number of + plural Noun + plural Verb the number of + plural Noun + singular Verb + a considerable amount of money Amounts of money + emissions, fossil fuels, fumes (N đếm được và không sd A number of ) + such as X, Y and Z Ex: Smoking causes several health problems such as…

+ S + V + O + because/as/since + S1 + V1 + O1 When While Where

Although + S + V + O, and/but/so + S1 + V1 + O1 (dấu phẩy nhỏ bé nhg rất quan trọng nha =))) + ngoài ra em cũng nên sử dụng dạng tính từ của động từ (Ving/Ved) để làm 2 câu đơn thành 1 câu phức, tạo sự lien kết. cái này cũng hay dung trg part 1 lắm. Ex: Compared with A, B… (hoặc) B…, comparing with A Ving/Ved + O, S + V + O - một mẫu câu sd từ so sánh cực hay ho mà e nên thuộc lòng  thực ra có thể áp dụng cấu trúc này trg rất nhiều bài liên quan đến kinh tế, giáo dục, gia đình, miễn là e có thể lien hệ đc Fewer family numbers means less financial pressure falling on working adults - Collocation hay ho (tốt nhất là thuộc hết chỗ này vì nó dễ dùng, dễ tăng điểm) To foster/stimulate + the economic growth of a country To provide + sb with sth Sth for sb Take advantage of sth Contribute to + N Lead to/result in + N To hamper the efforts of someone in doing sth

X is the precursor of N (nhớ là N chứ ko phải doing sth đâu nhé!) riêng cái từ precursor nếu dùng đúng chỗ có khả năng tăng 0.5 điểm cho bài viết đấy  To put people’s health in jeopardy. + Sự phát triển của KHCN The advance/innovation in technology The advent of technology

- Cấu trúc DO ĐÓ, THẾ NÊN… (CỰC KỲ hữu dụng) S + V + O; therefore, S1+V1+O1 , so + S1+V1+O1 and thus +V1+O1

CÁC DẠNG ĐỀ BÀI THƯỜNG RA TRONG PART 2 1. Discuss both view and give your opinion (A-B) - Intro: nhớ paraphrase đầu bài, ko dùng lại từ của ng` ta trừ bất khả kháng, viết tầm 3~4 câu chỗ này là đc rồi, ngắn thôi ko dài dòng Ex: It is sometimes claimed that A… While reasons can be given to advocate this, I would contend that B… - Body 1: On the one hand, there are several reasons why A… - Body 2: On the other hand, I believe that… - In conclusion, I firmly hold the view that B…, despite undeniable advantages of A (đoạn này phải chuyển ý A thành N nha em~)

2. Do advantage outweigh the disadvantage - It is true that… (giới thiệu topic) (ví dụ chị chọn bên disadvantages)

While this may have several benefits, I believe that the drawbacks are greater. - On the one hand,…. - On the other hand, I would contend that the these advantages are outweigh by the negative consequences. - It seems to me that XXX has clear disadvantages despite…

3. What are the causes? What are the solutions? - It is true that… Reasons for this vary, and solutions need to be adopted to combat the issue - Give reasons ở phần này, em có thể chia thành 2 đoạn j đó + Firstly, lí do 1… diễn giải + Secondly, lí do 2… diễn giải - However, a course of actions can be taken to handle the problem. (chỗ này viết chung 1 đoạn cũng đc) Solution 1 phải ứng vs reason 1, solution 2 ứng vs reason 2 - Đoạn kết thì em nhắc lại 2 reason và 2 solution

4. Is this a positive or negative development? (dù chỉ có 1 câu hỏi trg bài và có thể viết theo 1 hướng, nhg ss khuyên e viết theo cả 2 hướng nhé!) - It is true that… Personally, I believe that this has both positive and negative consequences as will now be explained. - On the one hand, there are a number of benefits of sth… - On the other hand, XXX (danh từ) also triggers several problems. hoặc XXX (là mệnh đề trg trường hợp e ko chuyển đc thành danh từ) happens, several problems can be anticipated.

- In conclusion, it seems to me that XXX has both positive and negative ramifications.

5. What are the effects on individuals/society? What are the solutions? (nếu có effect mà còn cần solution thì chắc chắn đây là bad effect em ah  - It is true that… There are several effects on society, and solutions need to be adopted to improve the situation. - When XXX happens, several negative effects/ impacts/ consequences can be anticipated - To tackle/ handle the problems, a course of actions can be taken. - In conclusion, YYY (ai đó - ở đây thường là government, school, teachers or parents) should take immediate actions to prevent XXX (thường là trẻ em, thanh niên) from doing sth.

6. What are the reasons? Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? - Reasons for this vary, and I believe that the advantages are greater than the disadvantages. - Body 1: viết về reasons - Body 2: viết disadvantages - Body 3: viết advantages (cái này chị học đc ở Res, em đồng ý cái j thì để đoạn đó xuống sau để viết, vd ở đây chị thấy advantages nhiều hơn disadvantages thì để cái advantages xuống sau)

7. What are the reasons? Is this a negative or positive development? Mấy đề phải phía sau thường là kết hợp của các loại trên. Nếu thấy viết 1 hướng ko đủ dài thì e chuyển qua viết 2 hướng nhé.

8. Why is this the case? What effects does it bring to society

2 dạng cuối (nửa đồng ý nửa ko đồng ý) nói thật ra chị ko mê loại này cho lắm~ nhg e cứ đưa về 2 hướng mà viết  a. To what extent do you agree or disagree b. DO you agree or disagree? - It is sometimes claimed that… While I agree with this to some extent, I also believe that… (disagree) - On the one hand, there are several reasons why… (agree) - On the other hand, I also recognize that (disagree) Hoặc there are some constraints that do not allow XXX (danh từ) to happen - In conclusion, I firmly hold the view that… (agree) Nevertheless, this does not mean that…

Bài tập điền mạo từ: a/an/the/none (mí bài này là do Simon viết – ông này toàn band 9 thôi nhé  học cách sd từ của ng ta, dù khá là đơn giản nhg ăn điểm và viết theo ko hề dễ :v Test 1: On the one hand, many people do seem to focus too much on (1) money and (2) possessions. Wherever we go, we are bombarded with (3) advertising to sell us (4) products and (5) services, many of which we do not need. For example, people may be persuaded to purchase (6) latest model of iPhone, when (7) their old phone is still perfectly functional. This could be seen as (8) demonstration that we are obsessive consumers; we buy things based on fashions and branding, and shopping has become (9) hobby or even (10) addiction. Em có thể rút ra ngay trg bài này là người tây khi viết bài ko bao giờ thể hiện 100% thái độ khi viết bài  ý chị là người ta sẽ giảm mức độ chủ quan trg bài xuống bằng cách sử dụng các từ như could, may, can… để nói về nhg việc có thể xảy ra. Hoặc seem to, is/are likely to, tend to để thể hiện 1 xu hướng, quan điểm. Nếu đọc nhiều bài mẫu hơn e sẽ để ý thấy điều này. Test 3: There are two main reasons why it could be argued that we are more dependent on each other now. Firstly, (1) life is more complex and difficult, especially because (2) cost of living has

increased so dramatically. For example, (3) young adults tend to rely on their parents for help when buying (4) house. Property prices are higher than ever, and without (5) help it would be impossible for (6) many people to pay (7) deposit and (8) mortgage. Secondly, people seem to be more ambitious nowadays, and they want (9) better quality of life for their families. This means that both parents usually need to work full-time, and they depend on (10) support from grandparents and babysitters for child care.

Test 4: (1) marriages have become bigger and more expensive for three main reasons. Firstly, (2) people in developed countries are wealthier than their ancestors were in the past. They therefore have more money to spend on (3) weddings, which are seen as one of (4) life’s important and unforgettable occasions. Secondly, in today’s globalized world, people see (5) photos of celebrity weddings and want to copy them. For example, (6) ceremony was shown on television and many people were influenced by what they saw. Finally, (7) wedding industry has grown, and many companies have (8) interest in selling (9) products and services to us, using (10) persuasive marketing techniques.

Test 5: There are several reasons why saving (1) minority languages could be seen as (2) waste of money. Firstly, if (3) language is only spoken by 94) small number of people, expensive education programmes will be needed to make sure that more people learn it, and (5) state will have to pay for (6) facilities, teachers and (7) marketing. This money might be better spent on (8) other public services. Secondly, it would be cheaper and efficient for countries to have just one language. (9) governments could cut all kinds of (10) costs related to communicating with each minority group.

Đề 14/12/2013 (đề này khá là khó, vs dễ đưa ra lý do vớ vẩn ko hợp đầu bài :v nên ss sẽ gửi e đoạn than bài) On the one hand, it is reasonable to require all graduates from education and medical schools to spend part of their professional lives in the countryside. The clearest advantage of this is that local people will have more chances to be educated and cured from diseases, narrowing the gap between cities and the countryside. Another benefit is that local people do not need to move to big cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh city for medical and education services, which will not only compound traffic problems in city centers but also put other services such as accommodation, water and electricity under strain.

On the other hand, I believe that new doctors and teachers should be given chances to choose the place to work. Firstly, forcing all new graduates to work in places where they do not want would cause resentment among them, and they may feel reluctant to devote their capacities. Therefore, allowing them to decide the workplace would be the best option to help them achieve their targets. Finally, if all teachers and doctors were sent to rural areas, there would be insufficient human resources to work in cities. - Put sth under strain: 1 cấu trúc cực hay nếu em muốn nói về mí bài lien quan đến kinh tế, ảnh hưởng của nó sẽ là làm “tạo sức ép lên” j j đó, như là dịch vụ, government budget chẳng hạn. - not only… but also: cấu trúc đơn giản, dùng cũng dễ nhg nhớ dạng từ sau not only và but also phải tương xứng nha  ví dụ thì trg bài đều là động từ đó. - resentment (N), reluctant (adj), insufficient(adj) đều là mấy từ hay và độc cả  cũng muốn đánh máy rồi ghi chú các cấu trúc quan trọng cho em, nhg nói thực là chị cũng sắp bận rồi =..= nên sẽ cố tìm thử lại các tài liệu sẵn có và gửi cho em nhé.

TỪ VỰNG CHO CÁC CHỦ ĐỀ ĐẶC BIỆT GOVERNMENT (solution mà government có thể làm) - the national budget will be put under strain (cứ lien quan tới giáo dục, kinh tế, sức khỏe cộng đồng thì tương câu này vào đc nè) - the government will have more money to invest in other important sectors of the economy. For example,… to improve the standard of living (là cái j ở chỗ 3 chấm thì tùy từng bài vs trg hợp để them vào) - the government should impose greater tax rates on (the food/ tobacco industry/ fast food business) - dùng trg bài mn ăn nhiều đồ ăn nhanh hay tiêu thụ thuốc lá, đây là solutions từ phía government. - Impose heavier punishments on criminal activities (trong bài tội phạm) - The government should campaigns about XXX to raise public awareness about sth - to prevent people from doing sth - to safeguard people from consuming unhealthy diets - to control sth To widen the road system -> economic growth -> Job -> reduce the unemployment rate

- to invest in the countryside to attract migration from cities (cái này hơi điêu =))))

INDIVIDUALS (solutions hoặc cause từ phía cá nhân) - to ease traffic congestion - to alleviate environmental pollution/contamination - to handle the problem - to hold the economy back from development - there is an increase in the number of sth - the growing number of sth put sth under pressure/strain - enter/ join in workforce - to cut down the level of exhaust emissions from traffic and industrial activities. - to trigger the craving for food - to provide a source of sth (information/knowledge/ experience/ finance) for sb - to protect the environment - to obey rules and regulations - to educate children -> better future - to develop a bond between family members - to eat healthily - lead a sedentary lifestyle -> lack of exercise -> obesity - to opt for public transport instead of using private vehicles CRIMINAL - Criminals = wrongdoers = lawbreakers = offenders = convicts - Capital punishment = death penalty - Criminals should not be allowed to roam freely in society. They should be sent to prison - Prison sends out a strong message to potential criminals.

- to rehabilitate - a community service (ld công ích) - a fine

TRẺ EM - to restrict the consumption of fast food, parents spend more time to prepare meals for the family - to play with/ socialize with peers -> develop social skills - to participate in outdoor activities -> improve health - learn a variety of subjects at school -> more knowledge of different fields

CUỘC SỐNG THÀNH PHỐ - growing traffic congestion -> stressful, pollution - high cost of living - the job market becomes more competitive - better facilities such as better school and medical systems - high salaries, more job opportunities
