      IELTS TUTOR gợi ý bài tham khảo:

      Today, I would like to tell you about Switzerland, a picturesque (đẹp như tranh – beautiful and visually attractive) country that has always fascinated me. Nestled in the heart of Central Europe (Trung Âu – the middle part of Europe), this nation is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes (cảnh quan ngoạn mục – stunning natural scenery), multifaceted culture (văn hóa đa diện – diverse and complex culture), and high standard of living (mức sống cao – excellent quality of life).

      I first learned about Switzerland through documentaries and travel blogs, which showcased its idyllic countryside (vùng quê thanh bình – peaceful and picturesque rural areas), meticulously preserved (được bảo tồn tỉ mỉ – maintained with great care) medieval towns, and world-class infrastructure (cơ sở hạ tầng đẳng cấp thế giới – excellent public services and facilities). Moreover, as someone who enjoys gastronomy (ẩm thực – the art and science of good eating), I have always been intrigued by Switzerland’s culinary heritage (di sản ẩm thực – traditional food culture), especially its artisanal cheese (pho mát thủ công – handmade cheese) and exquisite chocolate (sô cô la tinh tế – exceptionally fine chocolate).

      One of the main reasons I am eager to learn more about Switzerland is its linguistic diversity (sự đa dạng ngôn ngữ – the presence of multiple languages). Unlike most nations, it has four official languages—German, French, Italian, and Romansh—making it a linguistic melting pot (hòa trộn ngôn ngữ – a place where different languages coexist). This reflects the country’s rich cultural tapestry (bức tranh văn hóa phong phú – a complex and diverse cultural background), which I find truly captivating.>> Form đăng kí giải đề thi thật IELTS 4 kĩ năng kèm bài giải bộ đề 100 đề PART 2 IELTS SPEAKING quý đang thi (update hàng tuần) từ IELTS TUTOR

      Furthermore, Switzerland is famous for its cutting-edge innovations (các cải tiến tiên tiến – the most advanced technological developments), particularly in watchmaking and pharmaceuticals. I admire how Swiss companies, such as Rolex and Novartis, have set global benchmarks (tiêu chuẩn toàn cầu – international standards) for excellence. On top of that, the country’s efficient governance (sự quản lý hiệu quả – well-organized government policies) and impeccable public services (dịch vụ công hoàn hảo – flawless social services) make it a model for other nations.

      IV. Part 3

      Follow-up question: Do you often share/talk with your friend about this country?

      Absolutely! I frequently discuss Switzerland’s allure (sức hút của Thụy Sĩ – the captivating charm of Switzerland) with my friends because of its idyllic landscapes (phong cảnh nên thơ – peaceful and picturesque scenery) and rich culture. Many of my peers are also fascinated by its exemplary governance (chính phủ mẫu mực – an outstanding political system), particularly its political neutrality (sự trung lập chính trị – the absence of bias in global affairs), which has kept the country peaceful for centuries. Moreover, Switzerland’s renowned gastronomy (ẩm thực danh tiếng – widely recognized culinary tradition), from artisanal cheese (pho mát thủ công – handcrafted cheese) to delectable chocolate (sô cô la ngon tuyệt – highly delicious chocolate), always sparks engaging conversations. Recently, we even explored the possibility of traveling there together, as we are captivated by its pristine alpine villages (làng núi trong lành – untouched mountain settlements) and world-class infrastructure. Besides, its multicultural society (xã hội đa văn hóa – a diverse population with multiple cultural influences) is intriguing, as it embraces multiple languages and traditions. Sharing insights about Switzerland’s cutting-edge innovations (các đổi mới tiên tiến – the latest technological advancements), particularly in watchmaking and pharmaceuticals, is also a common topic among us. Lastly, discussing Switzerland helps us broaden our perspectives on sustainable development (phát triển bền vững – long-term environmental and economic progress), as the country is a global leader in green energy and eco-friendly policies.

      1. What do you think would contribute to national identities of a country?

      A country’s national identity is shaped by its cultural heritage (di sản văn hóa – long-standing traditions and customs), which includes historical landmarks, folklore, and traditional festivals. For example, Japan’s age-old traditions (truyền thống lâu đời – customs passed down for generations), such as the tea ceremony and sumo wrestling, strongly define its cultural uniqueness (tính độc đáo về văn hóa – distinctive cultural traits). In addition, a nation’s linguistic identity (bản sắc ngôn ngữ – language-related distinctiveness) plays a crucial role in preserving its authenticity and uniting its people. France, for instance, is deeply protective of the French language, as it is a symbol of its national sovereignty (chủ quyền quốc gia – the independent authority of a nation). Moreover, historical narratives (câu chuyện lịch sử – significant past events shaping a nation) contribute to a country’s identity, reinforcing a sense of pride and belonging. Countries that have fought for independence, such as Vietnam, often have a strong patriotic sentiment (tinh thần yêu nước – deep love and devotion to one’s country) embedded in their national consciousness. Lastly, a nation’s gastronomic identity (bản sắc ẩm thực – unique food culture) adds to its international reputation, as seen in Italy’s world-famous pasta and France’s haute cuisine.

      2. What can be the best way to learn about other countries?

      I believe the internet is an unrivaled tool (công cụ vô song – the best and most effective means) for acquiring knowledge about different cultures and traditions. One major advantage is its instant accessibility (khả năng tiếp cận tức thì – immediate and easy access), allowing people to explore diverse cultures at the click of a button. For instance, platforms like YouTube and travel blogs offer first-hand experiences (trải nghiệm trực tiếp – authentic accounts from individuals), making learning more engaging and immersive. Another reason is the vast reservoir of knowledge (kho tàng kiến thức rộng lớn – a large collection of information) available on the internet, from academic sources to virtual museum tours. This wealth of information enables people to gain in-depth cultural insights (hiểu biết sâu sắc về văn hóa – profound knowledge about traditions and customs). Furthermore, the internet facilitates cross-cultural interactions (tương tác liên văn hóa – communication between people from different backgrounds), helping individuals engage in discussions with native speakers and historians. Unlike traditional textbooks, which are often outdated and rigid (lỗi thời và cứng nhắc – no longer relevant and inflexible), online resources are frequently updated, ensuring up-to-date information (thông tin cập nhật – the latest facts and developments). Additionally, digital tools such as language-learning apps make cultural exploration more interactive and user-friendly (thân thiện với người dùng – easy to use and accessible).

      3. Why do you think learning about other countries through the internet is the best way?

      The internet is the most efficient and comprehensive (hiệu quả và toàn diện – both productive and all-encompassing) way to explore global cultures because it provides real-time exposure (tiếp xúc trực tiếp theo thời gian thực – immediate access to cultural content). Social media platforms, for example, allow people to follow influencers or seasoned travelers (du khách dày dặn kinh nghiệm – individuals with extensive travel experiences), offering insights into foreign lifestyles. Additionally, multimedia content (nội dung đa phương tiện – information in various forms like videos and podcasts) enhances the learning experience by making it more engaging and visually stimulating (thú vị hơn và kích thích thị giác – entertaining and appealing to the eyes). Another advantage is the interactive nature (tính tương tác – ability to communicate directly) of online learning, as people can join discussion forums, participate in virtual cultural exchange programs, and attend live-streamed festivals. Unlike traditional learning methods, which can be tedious and passive (nhàm chán và thụ động – boring and requiring little involvement), the internet fosters active participation (sự tham gia chủ động – engagement and involvement). Moreover, it is a cost-effective alternative (giải pháp tiết kiệm chi phí – an economical option), allowing people to gain cultural knowledge without traveling abroad. Lastly, the rapid dissemination of information (sự lan truyền nhanh chóng của thông tin – fast distribution of knowledge) ensures that people stay informed about cultural developments worldwide.
