Sample answer |
Vocabulary |

(Answer) Well, today I would like to describe my most favorite piece of clothing, as I am a type of traditional person so I would choose the Ao Dai - which is the iconic dress of Vietnam. As a Vietnamese girl, I certainly have one in my wardrobe. It is the tailor-made dress that was given to me by my parents as a gift on my 18th birthday. (Reason) I was so touched to receive that special present as it marked the time I became a freshman in a prestigious university. (Example) My Ao Dai has a white color with a long light pink trousers. It is a stunning piece of lotus embroidery which is made of a kind of expensive silk and when I put it on, I have a great feeling of femininity. On special occasions such as wedding or any kind of ceremony or anniversary, my white Ao Dai is always the first thing that comes to my mind. Some people may say that wearing Ao Dai is plain but to me, it is not only elegant but it also makes me confident and proud. Although nowadays there are different kinds of modern clothes, I believe that not only me but also many Vietnamese women still choose Ao Dai as a gown when it comes to a special day. It is a way of preserving the beauty and there is no doubt that it plays an essential role in the spiritual life of Vietnamese people. |

Sample answer |

(Answer) Well, I have to admit that I am a jewelry-holic. I have a jewelry collection at home and each of them is a token of a special event in my life. Today I would like to talk about a charm necklace that I received from my parents as a gift before my wedding. I was ecstatic when I was given that. It is made of white gold with a colorful gemstone in the middle of the charm. Although it has a simple design, it stands out from other bracelets or necklaces in my collection. Moreover, it can be mixed and matched with any items of clothes in my wardrobe, especially long dresses. (Reason) Not only is this necklace glamorous but its meaning makes me completely fall for it. (Example) It both shows my parents’ affection for me, and it carries the message that my parents always want me to be happy and look exquisite in every situation. Now I try to wear it all the time because when I have it on my neck, I feel that I am embraced by my parents’ love. This is also the first time that I feel motivated to wear a piece of jewelry on my body. This necklace has become an essential part in my everyday outfit and also my most favorite piece of jewelry so far. |
