1
For instance, sour mangoes or bitter melon, which leaves a very strong bitter aftertaste, are definitely my least favourites.
2
Were there any kinds of fruit and vegetables you disliked as a child?
3
When I was younger, I used to avoid durian at all costs due to its pungent smell.
4
But now, surprisingly, this fruit has really grown on me and I find it incredibly delicious and aromatic.
5
Topic 3.
6
Travelling Let's talk about travelling.
7
Do you enjoy travelling?
8
Absolutely!
9
What I enjoy most about travelling is that it allows me to get away from it all and take in the scenery.
10
For instance, I'm currently planning a trip to Thailand this year to broaden my horizons.
11
Do you prefer travelling alone or with a group?
12
Given the choice, I'd rather travel with a group than go solo.
13
I prefer having some travel buddies, mainly because sharing experiences makes the trip much more enjoyable,
14
just like how my close friends and I take an annual trip to Bond.
15
Do you like to look out the window when you are travelling?
16
Definitely.
17
I always try to get a window seat whenever I travel by plane or train.
18
The main reason is that it's absolutely amazing to look outside and take in the scenery along the way.
19
Do you remember a long journey you had with your family?
20
Yes, I do.
21
I can still remember taking a trip to Ho Chi Minh City with my family
22
because it was one of the first times that I had travelled so far from home.
23
It remains a beautiful childhood memory for me.
24
Topic 4.
25
Cars.
26
Let's talk about cars.
27
Do you think car colours are important?
28
Yes, absolutely.
29
When it comes to cars, I tend to prefer neutral colours like black or white because personal taste matters a lot to me.
30
I would never choose a pink car just to stand out from the crowd.
31
What types of cars do you like?
32
I would choose a family car over a sports car or an SUV, mainly because I already have a family of my own.
33
It is much more spacious and practical for our daily needs.
34
Do you prefer to be a driver or a passenger?
35
Given the choice, I'd rather get behind the wheel because it is far more exciting than just riding shotgun.
36
There is this indescribable feeling of being in total control of a powerful machine.
37
What do you usually do when there is a traffic jam?
38
Whenever I am stuck in traffic, rather than giving in to road rage, I prefer to listen to some music and stay calm.
39
Since the cars can only crawl along, getting frustrated would just make the situation worse.
40
Topic 5.
41
Websites.
42
Now let's talk about websites.
43
What kinds of websites do you often visit?
44
Most of the websites I visit tend to be educational and news platforms because they provide the practical value I need.
45
I usually spend a short amount of time every day scrolling
46
through them just to keep myself in the loop with the latest updates what is your favorite website
47
if i had to pick one it would probably be quantremang .com
48
because it offers highly engaging content about tech
49
and education it's basically a one -stop shop for me especially since it features a dedicated
50
and incredibly useful section for ai applications are there any changes to the websites you often visit?
51
Yes, absolutely.
52
I've noticed that their interfaces and content are updated much more frequently compared with the past.
53
Probably due to the rapid rise of AI, everything looks much more eye -catching and is significantly easier to navigate nowadays.
54
What kinds of websites are popular in your country?
55
In Vietnam, entertainment and news platforms tend to be highly favored.
56
One reason these go -to sites are so popular is
57
that they perfectly cater to the daily needs of the vast majority of people here.
58
Topic six, social media.
59
Let's move on to social media.
60
Have you ever posted anything on social media?
61
Yes, absolutely.
62
I'm not really the type to post every day, but I occasionally share story updates whenever I reach certain achievements or have something fun to celebrate.
63
In fact, the last thing I posted was a beautiful photo of my son to share something memorable with my friends.
64
When did you start using social media?
65
To be honest, I can't remember exactly, but I first started using social platforms back in high school.
66
That was when my dad bought me my first smartphone, so I mainly used it to keep up with friends and message my classmates.
67
Do you think you spend too much time on social media?
68
Not at all.
69
I actually use it in moderation.
70
I try to limit my screen time by managing my schedule strictly, so I spend at most one hour a day on these apps.
71
After that, I just put my phone away to focus on my work and my son.
72
Do your friends use social media?
73
Pretty much everyone I know uses it daily because of its sheer convenience.
74
It's incredibly useful for calling or sharing information.
75
In fact, it's the best way for us to keep up with each other
76
and stay connected despite being busy with our own families.
77
What do people often do on social media?
78
Generally, people mainly use these platforms to read social news or check on friends, but it's also common to just look for entertainment.
79
For example, like many others, I love scrolling through a curated feed to watch short videos about my hobbies, like badminton.
80
Topic 7.
81
Clothing.
82
Let's talk about clothing.
83
What kind of clothes do you like to wear?
84
I tend to go for sportswear with a relaxed fit because it's incredibly comfortable but still looks neat.
85
Brands like Nike or Leaning are totally my kind of thing for everyday wear.
86
Do you prefer to wear comfortable and casual clothes or smart clothes?
87
If I had to choose, I'd definitely go for casual clothes.
88
As a programmer who sits in front of a screen all day,
89
I always prioritise comfort so I can easily move around and feel at ease while coding.
90
Do you like wearing t -shirts?
91
Absolutely.
92
T -shirts are pretty much wardrobe staples in my closet.
93
I have dozens of them.
94
What I like about them is that they go with everything, making it super easy to mix and match when I head out.
95
Do you spend a lot of time choosing clothes?
96
Not at all.
97
I don't usually spend long picking outfits unless I have to dress up for a special occasion.
98
On a typical day I just throw on something understated and get to work.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
