(Some people believe that hobbies need to be difficult to be enjoyable To what extent you agree or disagree?) - What you think? (Some British families decide not to buy televisions because they influence the development of the creativity of children What you think?) - Do you agree or disagree? (Some people think that all teenagers should be required to unpaid work in their free time to help the local community They believe this would benefit both the individual teenager and society as a whole Do you agree or disagree?) - To what extent you agree or disagree with this statement? (We cannot help everyone in the world that needs help, so we should only be concerned with our own communities and countries To what extent you agree or disagree with this statement?) II Lựa chọn cách viết: Đối với dạng Opinion, đề muốn hỏi qua điểm b n vấ đề Công việc bạn phải đưa quan điểm xuyên suốt toàn viết (cả mở (introduction) kết luận (conclusion)), bạn đồng ý (totally/ absolutely/ completely + agree), không đồng ý (totally/ absolutely/ completely + disagree) đồng ý phần (partly agree) Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Page Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com - Với việc đồng ý hoàn toàn (totally/ absolutely/ completely + agree) không đồng ý (totally/ absolutely/ completely + disagree) thông thường gọi viết mặt (one side of the argument) - Còn việc đồng ý phần (partly agree) thông thường gọi viết hai mặt (both sides of the argument) Một số ý kiến cho rằng, viết mặt dễ viết hai mặt, người bắt đầu nên viết mặt Theo ý kiến mình, lựa chọn cách viết mặt hay hai mặt luận Opinion phụ thuộc vào đầu đưa ra, cách viết có thuận lợi khó khă riê - Đối với kiểu viết mặt, bạn dễ tìm ý hơn, support cho ideas lối viết khó khăn khó triển khai ý - Đối với kiểu viết hai mặt khó tìm ý hơn, rõ ràng với viết hai mặt viết chắn phong phú bạn “khoe” vốn từ vựng cách hiệu Vấ đề quan trọng nhất, theo mình, lựa chọn lối viết phải bám vào đề đưa Ví dụ với đề sau: Universities should accept equal numbers of male and female students in every subject To what extent you agree or disagree?

(Một số người tin thi cử cách thức không phù hợp để đánh giá lực sinh viên nên thay hình thức đánh giá thường xuyên Bạn đồng ý hay không đồng ý với ý kiên trên?) Đề đưa vấn đề việc đánh giá lực sinh viên thi cử Rõ ràng việc thi cử gây nhiều áp lực cho sinh viên, không đánh giá lực sinh viên cách trọn vẹn, nhiên bỏ thi cử bỏ sinh viên thờ với việc học hành (students could lose the good study habits and Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Page Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com sense of discipline they had when they were in a formal academic structure) Mặc dù chúng xem xét hình thức kiểm tra lực sinh viên cách thường xuyên (continuous assessment) để giảm bớt áp lực thi cử cho sinh viên (to relieve the students of exam pressure) Chúng ta xem phần mở kết luận mà Dominic Cole viết nhé: Intro: There is some dispute whether the best method of assessing students is to use examinations or some form of continuous assessment This is a complex issue and my belief is that there is probably no one method that applies to all educational systems Conclusion: In conclusion, while continuous assessment may be fairer in some contexts, there are still times when traditional exams may be more appropriate A possible compromise would be to use both forms of testing together, allowing teachers to reward both ability and hard work III Cấu trúc viết Opinion: Đây lời khuyên Simon cấu trúc luận Opinion: IELTS Writing Task 2: agree, disagree, or both? For 'agree or disagree' essays, you think you should give both sides of the argument or just one side? The answer is that you can either A) Essay structure for one side of the argument: Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Page Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Introduction: topic + your opinion (either agree or disagree) First idea to support your opinion Second idea to support your opinion Conclusion: repeat your opinion B) Essay structure for giving both sides: Introduction: topic + say that you 'partly agree' On the one hand, On the other hand, Conclusion: repeat that you accept elements of both arguments Remember: it's very important to get the introduction right This tells the examiner whether you are going to give one side of the argument or both sides Một lời khuyên quan trọng Simon nhé: IELTS Writing Task 2: opinion, not discussion If the question asks whether you agree or disagree, it is asking for your opinion You should express your opinion in the introduction, and support it in the rest of the essay Don’t structure an “opinion” essay like this: Introduction Paragraph supporting the opposite opinion Paragraph supporting my opinion Conclusion The problem with this essay structure is that paragraph is not consistent with my opinion This is a “discussion” essay structure! Think of it this way: your task when you answer an “agree or disagree” question is to persuade the reader that your view is right Each paragraph should defendyour opinion Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Page Tổng hợp: fanpage https://www.facebook.com/luyenvietIELTS Onluyenthi.IELTS@gmail.com Discuss essay I Một số câu hỏi thường gặp - Discuss both views and give your opinion đưa qua điểm b ãy bà uậ qua điểm Example: Some people think that museums should be enjoyable places to entertain people, while others believe that the purpose of museums is to educate Discuss both views and give you own opinion - In your opinion, the drawbacks of … outweigh the benefits? heo qua điểm b h điểm bất ợi của…có ả h hưở h điểm t ch cực không?)
