IELTS 5.5:

Reading stories from a book is considered to be a thing of the past to some children. They tend to bury themselves in the most modern computer games and illustrative TV programs. However, I strongly believe that the power of reading books is as equitable as that of the latest media.

Đọc truyện từ sách được coi là một điều trong dĩ vãng đối với một số đứa trẻ. Trẻ con có xu hướng chôn vùi chúng vào những game hiện đại và chương trình TV có tính minh họa. Tuy nhiên, tôi tin rằng việc đọc sách cũng có giá trị như việc tiếp cận các phương tiện truyền thông hiện đại

While book reading is compatible with introverted kids staying away from the crowd and basking themselves in sort of the whirlwind of meditative smoke, TV programs are easily digested by modern youngsters. Vivid images on the media, besides, provide extroverted kids more direct and impressive understandings of the world.

Trong khi việc đọc sách phù hợp với những đứa trẻ nội hướng tránh xa đám đông và chôn vùi bản thân mình vào một màn khói kiều như thiền định, những chương trình TV dễ bị tiêu hóa bởi những đứa trẻ hiện đại. Những hình ảnh sống động trên truyền thông, bên cạnh đó, mang lại cho những đứa trẻ có tính cách ngoại hướng sự hiểu thấu trực tiếp và ấn tượng về thế giới.

Social surveys have shown that the more children read books, the more patient and self-critical they become. Without being instantly affected the thoughts of others and images of phenomena, readers are supposed to dig deeper and come up with their own reflections. Yet, the diversity in sources of news and information on TV is much greater than that in pure books. Information-loving children are, therefore, staunch fans of modern communication modes.

Khảo sát xã hội đã cho thấy trẻ con càng đọc sách, chúng càng trở nên kiên nhẫn và có khả năng phê phán. Không bị ảnh hưởng trực tiếp bởi suy nghĩ của người khác và những hình ảnh của các hiện tượng, những người đọc có thể đào sâu và nghĩ ra những suy nghĩ riêng của mình. Nhưng sự đa dạng trong nguồn thông tin trên TV là lớn hơn so với điều đó trong những quyển sách thuần túy. Những đứa trẻ yêu thông tin, do vậy là những fan trung thành của các phương tiện truyền thông hiện đại.

However, to families of lower income, and especially, those in remote areas, books are the optimum ways to access information. The cost to equip each household with games and TV is a big concern to them even though it is irrefutable that these means effectively unwind themselves after strenuous hours of academic learning. Imagine that dragging themselves from school with piles of tedious homework, children are, in no time, refreshed, recharged and re-energized by lively images and sounds. Ingenuous games are also believed to exercise their brain as efficaciously as valuable books.

Tuy nhiên, đối với gia đình thu nhập thấp, và đặc biệt, những người ở vùng sâu vùng xa, những quyển sách là cách tối ưu để tiếp cận thông tin. Chi phí để trang bị mỗi hộ gia đình với các trò chơi và TV là một quan ngại lớn với họ mặc dù không thể phủ nhận là những phương tiện này có thể làm chúng giảm xitret hiệu quả sau những giờ căng thẳng học hành. Hãy tưởng tượng kéo lê mình từ trường học với đống bài tập vất vả, những đứa trẻ sớm cảm thấy thoải mái, được truyền năng lượng và phấn khích bởi những hình ảnh và âm thanh sống động. Những trò chơi sáng tạo cũng được tin là rèn luyện não cho trẻ em một cách hiệu quả nhưng những quyển sách có giá trị.

"Banh Chung" (Chung cake) is one of the most popular and delicious
traditional Vietnamese dishes. According to the legend, Chung cake was
invented by Prince Lang Lieu - the 18th Prince of Hung Emperor, in the
contest of looking for new Emperor. It has become an irreplaceable cake of
Vietnamese people at Tet and King Hung's anniversary (10th March of the
Lunar calendar).
Chung cake is made from sticky rice, pork, green beans, pepper and
onions. It is wrapped in dong leaves (lá dong). The cake will be boiled for
about 12 hours over a wood burning stove.
In Vietnam, the process of making Chung cake is the opportunity for family
to come together. All members in the family often make Chung cake together
and then sit around the warm fire to boil it. Nowadays, in some big cities, the

busy life of modern society prevents people from preparing the cake,
however, the habit of worship ancestors with Chung cake never changes.

 

1.Hung Emperor invented Chung cake in the contest of looking for new
Emperor.

3.Sticky rice, pork and green beans are some ingredients to make Chung cake.

Everyone knows that honeybees make honey, but how do they actually do it? Honeybees live in colonies, which means that they live with lots of other bees. Beehives, nests made of wax, are the places where they live and stow their honey.

Honeybees drink nectar from flowers or other sweet deposits from plants or trees. The honey made by these bees is used to supply the colony with food during the cold winter when there arc no flowers to drink from. Thus, these bees not only consume the nectar for nourishment but also bring it home. They have a special organ called a honey stomach which is used to carry the food to their colony.

When honeybees come back home, they regurgitate what they have put in their honey stomachs. Other honeybees in the hive come along and help them. They repeatedly eat and regurgitate many times until the product becomes somewhat digested. Next, the bees move the syrupy product into open honeycomb cells. Then they beat their wings to fan it to prevent fermentation. The fanning makes the water evaporate so that the product gets thick enough. Now it cannot easily be attacked by bacteria. Finally, it can be called honey. After this process, honeybees seal up the honeycomb cells with wax until they are hungry.

The most impressive part of this process is how seamlessly a bee colony works together. In a colony, there are female worker bees, male drones, and one queen bee. Although there are both male and females in the hive, the majority of the work is done by females. The female worker bees are in charge of taking care of the hive and creating honey. When they are young, they take care of feeding the young bee larvae. When they are older, they go out and bring nectar back to the hive, where they begin making honey. The male drones are responsible for fertilizing the eggs, but require little energy as they spend their time waiting around the hive. The single queen bee is responsible for the colony's survival. She is the only female that can lay eggs. The wonderful substance called honey would not exist without the bees' teamwork.

Nowadays in the news you can read a lot about biotechnology and the controversies about it and perhaps you ask yourself what it is exactly. Well, this article is going to give you a brief history of the field of biotechnology and show you that, although the word “biotechnology” was first used in 1919, we have been using biotechnology for many thousands of years in ways that are completely uncontroversial. It will also look at the more modern developments which have started intense debate. When you are drinking a cold beer on a hot day, or eating a delicious cheese sandwich, you can thank biotechnology for the pleasure you are experiencing. That’s right! Beer, bread and cheese are all produced using biotechnology. Perhaps a definition will be useful to understand how. A standard definition is that biotechnology (or biotech for short) is the application of science and engineering to the direct or indirect use of living organisms. And as you know, the food and drink above are all produced by the fermentation of micro-organisms. In beer, the yeast multiplies as it eats the sugars in the mixture and turns them into alcohol and CO2. This ancient technique was first used in Egypt to make bread and wine around 4000BC! Antibiotics are used to prevent and treat diseases, especially those caused by bacteria. They are natural substances that are created by bacteria and fungi. The first antibiotic was made in China in about 500BC – to cure boils. In 1928 Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin and it was considered a medical miracle. Modern research is looking at the creation of super-antibodies which can kill bacteria and viruses inside the cells that house them. Our modern consumer society produces a lot of waste which needs to be disposed of safely and without harmful end products. Environmental biotechnology can help. Indeed, the use of bacteria to treat sewage was first practiced in 1914 in Manchester, England. Vermiculture or using worms to treat waste is another environmentally-friendly practice and the end product is a natural fertiliser. Bacteria have even been developed to help with problems such as oil spills. They convert crude oil and gasoline into non-toxic substances such as carbon dioxide, water and oxygen and help create a cleaner, healthier environment. These examples of biotechnology are accepted by most people. However, the discovery of the DNA structure by Watson and Crick in 1953 was the beginning of the modern era of genetics and the following areas of biotech are very controversial. Read on… The genetic modification of plants and crops has been in practice for many years. This involves changing the genetic code of these plants so that they are more resistant to bad conditions like drought, floods and frost. Supporters of GM food say that it can offer the consumer better quality, safety and taste and for over a decade Americans have been eating GM food. However, things are very different in Europe where genetically modified food is very strictly regulated and regarded with deep suspicion by the public. GM food has even been called “Frankenfood” in the press, a term inspired by the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. There is a great cultural divide between America and Europe over whether such food is safe to eat and will not harm the environment and the discussion is still in progress. 1997 saw the birth of Dolly the sheep, the first animal cloned from an adult cell. This was a remarkable achievement which created world-wide debate on the ethical issues surrounding cloning. International organisations such as the European parliament, UNESCO and WHO all declared that human cloning is both morally and legally wrong. However, we need to make a distinction between reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning. Nowadays the idea of reproductive cloning – creating a copy of another person - is no longer interesting for researchers. Instead therapeutic cloning is creating excitement in the biotech world. Key to this technique is stem cells, which are master cells that have the potential to become any other kind of cell in the body e.g. nerve cells, blood, heart muscle or even brain cells. Stem cells themselves have generated a lot of controversy as it was believed that only human embryos could provide them. However, it now appears that adult stem cells offer the same possibility. This would mean that a patient who suffered a heart attack could provide doctors with his adult stem cells which could then be implanted back into his heart and used to create heart muscle, replacing the muscle that was damaged. As the genetic code is identical, there would be no problem of the body rejecting the implant as, unfortunately, happens with organ transplants. In the future, biotechnologists hope that stem cells could be used to grow entire organs. In this way biotechnology offers the hope of revolutionising medical treatment. In this brief overview of the history of biotechnology we have jumped from making bread to making human organs - an enormous leap- and it is clear that these modern practices raise many controversial issues.
