(Làm việc theo cặp. Nếu bạn có thể chuyển đến bất kỳ thành phố nào trên thế giới, bạn sẽ chọn ở đâu? Tại sao?)

Bài Làm:

Partner 1: If you could move to any city in the world, where would you choose?

Partner 2: I think I would choose Tokyo in Japan. It has always fascinated me with its unique blend of traditional culture and modern technology. What about you?

Partner 1: I would choose New York City. It is known as the city that never sleeps, and there's always something happening there. Plus, I love the diversity and the energy of the city.

Partner 2: That's interesting. I've always wanted to visit New York City too. Do you have any specific reasons for choosing it?

Partner 1: Yes, I love the arts and culture scene there. The museums, galleries, and theaters are world-class. I also love the food scene, with so many amazing restaurants to choose from.

Partner 2: That sounds fantastic. In Tokyo, I am attracted to the mix of the ancient and the modern. The city has a rich history and culture, and yet it is also one of the most technologically advanced cities in the world.

Partner 1: That's true. I've always been interested in Japanese culture and the way they embrace technology. I think it would be a fascinating place to live.

Partner 2: Yes, I agree. I also love the food in Japan, especially sushi and ramen. And the people are known for being polite and respectful.

Partner 1: That's great. I think we both have good reasons for choosing these cities. It would be amazing to live in a completely different culture and experience something new.

Partner 2: Yes, absolutely. It's always good to have a sense of adventure and try something different.

Hi Anna,

Hope evervthing is OK with vou. We've just moved to a new fat nearer the centre of town, It’s brillant being so close to the shops, and the flat is bigger than our old one. It’s quite noisy, though, as there is a lot of traffic, I'd rather it was further from the main road. I met one of our neighbours vesterday. She is about nv age and she is very friendly. She has invited me to a party next weekend. Can you go with me? I hope so. ‘To be honest, I'd rather not go alone. Also, would it be OK if I used your bike lor a few days? Mine is at the bike shop and I'd rather cycle to school than get the bus.

Got to go now. I'd better finish my homework before bed. I look forward to receiving your reply.

Love,

Ellie
