Today, I would like to tell you about a time when I was snowed under with my university entrance exam.

University entrance exam in Vietnam is of paramount importance to me because it will decide whether I can get through my favorite university or not. (paramount importance: cực kỳ quan trọng, điều này rất quan trọng vì sẽ quyết định việc tôi có vào được trường đại học yêu thích hay không).>> 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

During my exam, a copious amount of pressure was on me, and I was overwhelmed when I even didn’t have time left for my personal stuff. (copious amount: một lượng lớn, có nghĩa là một lượng quá nhiều; overwhelmed: bị choáng ngợp, cảm thấy bị áp lực, không thể xử lý được do quá nhiều công việc).

To work my way through this busy time, I decided to write all my tasks down on a whiteboard. I divided them by subject and importance and developed a rigorous schedule for myself. (rigorous: nghiêm ngặt, cẩn thận, rất chi tiết).

Within 20 minutes, I had the final schedule in my hands, and I started working according to it.

At first, I thought I might bite off more than I could chew, and I needed to find an efficient way to work through the chaos. (bite off more than I could chew: nhận quá nhiều việc mà không thể hoàn thành, làm điều gì đó khó hơn khả năng của mình).

Then, the pressure began to subside slowly, and I was becoming more efficient day by day simply because the schedule gave me direction and allowed me to finish my tasks in an organized way. (subside: dịu bớt, giảm bớt; áp lực bắt đầu giảm dần).

Finally, I realized that by organizing my anarchic thoughts, and taking a moment to work through everything that required straightening out, I was able to finish my tasks breezily. (anarchic: hỗn loạn, không có trật tự; breezily: dễ dàng, thoải mái, không gặp khó khăn).

In fact, when we allow ourselves to pause for clarity, our mind can work wonders and provide us with guidance on how to proceed.

1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of always being busy?

Being busy can offer a sense of accomplishment because when you have tasks to do, you feel productive. (Sense of accomplishment: cảm giác hoàn thành, sự hài lòng khi hoàn thành công việc). For example, when I finish a long to-do list, I feel proud of myself, as it reflects my ability to meet goals. However, the downside is that constant busyness can lead to burnout, where people feel mentally exhausted and lose motivation. (Burnout: kiệt sức, cảm giác mệt mỏi vì làm việc quá sức). A person working continuously without breaks may find it hard to stay focused or even experience diminished productivity over time. (Diminished productivity: giảm năng suất, không làm việc hiệu quả như trước). For instance, many employees who work long hours eventually feel their efficiency slip, affecting their quality of work.>> IELTS TUTOR có hướng dẫn kĩ PHÂN TÍCH ĐỀ THI THẬT TASK 2 (dạng advantages & disadvantages) NGÀY 04/8/2020 IELTS WRITING GENERAL MÁY TÍNH (kèm bài được sửa hs đi thi)

1. What kind of pressure may people experience at work?

At work, employees may experience performance pressure, which means the expectation to meet targets or deliver high-quality results consistently. (Performance pressure: áp lực về hiệu suất công việc, yêu cầu đạt được kết quả mong đợi). For example, someone in sales might feel this pressure to hit sales goals every month. Another common pressure is time constraints, when people have limited hours to complete their tasks, leading to stress. (Time constraints: hạn chế về thời gian, thiếu thời gian để hoàn thành công việc). A project manager, for instance, must often juggle multiple tasks at once, ensuring everything is finished on time. These pressures can result in anxiety or feeling like a hamster on a wheel, constantly running but not really getting anywhere. (Feeling like a hamster on a wheel: cảm giác làm việc mà không đạt được kết quả, giống như con chuột chạy trong bánh xe mà không tiến bộ).

1. How does technology help with time management?

Technology can significantly enhance efficiency by providing tools for task organization, such as calendar apps and project management software. (Enhance efficiency: cải thiện hiệu quả, làm việc nhanh và hiệu quả hơn). For instance, apps like Trello help users manage projects by organizing tasks, deadlines, and responsibilities. Moreover, technology can reduce time spent on tedious tasks by automating repetitive processes. (Tedious tasks: công việc tẻ nhạt, làm những việc đơn điệu và mất thời gian). For example, online banking allows people to manage finances quickly, freeing up time for more important activities. As a result, technology can help individuals stay on track, ensuring deadlines are met without unnecessary stress. (Stay on track: giữ đúng lộ trình, hoàn thành công việc đúng hạn).
