BÀI 1: Luyện Phân Tích Đề Writing Task 2 chỉ 3 đến 5 phút

Đọc đề xong lao vào viết ngay là "vết xe đổ" khiến nhiều bạn kẹt mãi ở Band thấp vì bài viết dễ lạc đề và rối ý. Muốn lên Band 5.5+, quy tắc sống còn là phải làm chủ Cấu trúc 4 đoạn tiêu chuẩn dưới đây:

​Introduction (Mở bài): Nêu lại đề bài + Khẳng định quan điểm (2 câu).

​Body 1 (Thân bài 1): Giải thích khía cạnh/lý do thứ nhất (4-5 câu).

​Body 2 (Thân bài 2): Giải thích khía cạnh/lý do thứ hai (4-5 câu).

​Conclusion (Kết bài): Khẳng định lại quan điểm cá nhân (1-2 câu).

​Dưới đây là một đề bài phổ biến thuộc chủ đề Công nghệ/Đời sống, đi kèm bài mẫu đạt chuẩn Band 5.5 áp dụng chính xác cấu trúc 4 đoạn vừa học để bạn dùng làm tài liệu cho bài viết.

Đề bài: Some people think that smartphones make it easier for people to stay in touch with friends and family. Others believe that they destroy traditional forms of communication. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

(Tạm dịch: Có người nghĩ điện thoại thông minh giúp giữ liên lạc dễ dàng hơn. Người khác lại tin rằng chúng đang phá hủy các hình thức giao tiếp truyền thống. Thảo luận cả hai ý kiến và đưa ra quan điểm của bạn).

​📝 Bài viết mẫu đạt chuẩn Band 5.5

​[Introduction]

Nowadays, smartphones are very popular all over the world. While some people believe that these devices help us connect with our family and friends easily, others argue that smartphones are destroying traditional ways of communication.

​[Body 1]

On the one hand, smartphones bring many benefits for communication. In the past, calling someone far away was very expensive and difficult. Today, with a smartphone and internet, people can make free video calls to their relatives anywhere via applications like Zalo or Facebook. This helps family members stay close to each other even when they live in different countries.

​[Body 2]

On the other hand, smartphones also have negative impacts on real-life interaction. When people meet each other at a coffee shop or a family dinner, they often look at their phone screens instead of talking to each other. This makes relationships become colder because people spend less time having face-to-face conversations.

​[Conclusion]

In conclusion, although smartphones sometimes reduce real-life communication, I still believe that they make staying in touch much easier if people use them wisely.

​🔍 Tại sao bài viết này đạt Band 5.5?

​Bố cục 4 đoạn rõ ràng: Người đọc dễ dàng nhìn ra kết cấu bài viết nhờ các từ chuyển đoạn ở đầu câu (On the one hand, On the other hand, In conclusion).

​Đi thẳng vào vấn đề:

​Body 1 chỉ tập trung giải thích mặt tiện lợi (gọi video miễn phí cho người ở xa).

​Body 2 chỉ tập trung nói về mặt tác hại (ra quán cafe mỗi người nhìn một máy, ít nói chuyện trực tiếp).

​Ngữ pháp và từ vựng: Tuy còn đơn giản (very popular, many benefits, negative impacts), thỉnh tho pháp vẫn có lỗi nhỏ nhưng tổng thể dễ hiểu, không bị rối ý, đáp ứng tốt tiêu chí mạch lạc của Band 5.5.

Mẹo Viết Writing Task 1 đạt IELTS 5.5 nhanh.

Đề Writing Task 2 rất đa dạng về chủ đề vì vậy khó khăn lớn đối với hầu hết học sinh, sinh viên là gặp đề khó chưa có nhiều kiến thức để phân tích hay, thậm chí nhiều bạn còn hiểu sai đề hay chỉ hiểu một phần của đề thi IELTS Writing Task 2.

Vậy làm sao các bạn học IELTS ở mức trung bình và luyện thi chỉ 2 đến 3 tháng có thể thi đạt Band 5.5.

Bước 1 là bước quan trọng hàng đầu như đã đề cập ở trên: PHÂN TÍCH KỸ ĐỀ để viết không bị lạc đề và không tốn thời gian lúc viết vì các bạn thường mông lung nhiều ý khác nhau lúc viết dẫn đến  viết mơ hồ, lạc ý, thậm chí sai.

- Phân tích đề xong thì viết ý chính cho mỗi đoạn hay còn gọi là bước PLAN IDEAS. Nên ghi ý chính ra cho mỗi đoạn, phải bám sát đề.

Để đạt IELTS 5.5 thì bài luận chỉ cần 2 đoạn thân bài, như vậy chỉ cần viết 2 ý chính (Topic Sentence). Viết ở câu đầu tiên của mỗi đoạn thân bài.

Sau đó, viết 3-4 câu hỗ trợ ý chính (supporing ideas). Cụ thể hóa cho ý chính bằng cách giải thích chi tiết, đưa ra ví dụ thực tế.

Tóm lại, theo format dễ hiểu sâu.

BODY PARAGRAPH: Viết 2 đoạn.

- TOPIC SENTENCE : Viết 1 câu chủ đề (câu đơn hay câu phức đều được nhưng phải đảm bảo ý tổng quan cho cả đoạn.)

- SUPPORTING SENTENCES: Viết từ 3-4 câu phân tích làm rõ cho ý chính.

*** Lưu ý là viết kết hợp cả 3 loại câu điểm sẽ cao hơn : câu đơn, câu kép, câu phức.



Bây giờ, chúng ta phân tích đề sau và viết ý chính cho mỗi đoạn nhé: 

Đề 1:

Many people believe that individuals can do little to improve the environment, and only governments and large companies can make a real difference.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

(Nhiều người tin rằng cá nhân không thể làm được nhiều để cải thiện môi trường, và chỉ có chính phủ và các công ty lớn mới tạo ra khác biệt thực sự. Bạn đồng ý hay không đồng ý tới mức độ nào?)

- Phân tích đề: đồng ý với đề trên 80%.

- Viết Câu Chủ Đề: 2 câu chủ đề sau

Body 1 (ý ủng hộ chính phủ/công ty):

“Governments and big companies have more power and money to make big changes to the environment.”

(Chính phủ và công ty lớn có nhiều quyền lực và tiền để làm thay đổi lớn cho môi trường.)

Body 2 (ý ủng hộ cá nhân):

“However, individual actions are also important because small changes by many people can help nature.”

(Tuy nhiên, hành động của từng cá nhân cũng quan trọng vì thay đổi nhỏ của nhiều người có thể giúp thiên nhiên.)


Đề 2: Bạn phân tích đề sau nhé

Some people think that banning single-use plastics is the best way to solve environmental problems, while others believe there are more effective measures.

Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

IELTS WRITING TASK 2

These days there’s no need to go to live performances (e.g. shows or concerts) because what we can see on TV or computer screen is better. 

To what extent do you agree or disagree?


In today's digital age, many believe that attending live performances is no longer necessary, as high-quality shows and concerts can be easily viewed on television or online. While this view is reasonable to an extent, I disagree that it fully replaces the unique experience of enjoying the shows in person.


On the one hand, technological advancements have made it extremely convenient for people to enjoy performances from the comfort of their homes. With modern TVs offering high-quality sound and visuals, viewers can comfortably enjoy concerts, plays, and other events at home anytime, without the need to travel or pay for expensive tickets. For instance, Taylor Swift's concert film allowed fans worldwide to enjoy her show without spending hundreds of dollars on stadium or flight tickets. Moreover, in today’s fast-paced and busy working culture, people are given fewer days off. Therefore, being able to set aside enough time and money to attend concerts has become something of a luxury that not many can afford, which explains why enjoying shows at home becomes a more time-saving and affordable option for entertainment.


However, attending a live concert offers fans an emotional connection and vibrant atmosphere that screens cannot fully replicate. In particular, live shows often foster a strong sense of community and fulfillment, as both artists and fans come together to share the moment. The energy of a cheering crowd, the thrill of being part of a real-time event, and the direct interaction between performers and audience all contribute to an unforgettable experience. For instance, BTS concerts are often described by fans as deeply moving due to the shared energy and emotional engagement throughout the show. Furthermore, elaborate stage setups and stunning lighting effects enhance the performance, adding to the intensity and visual impact. The global success of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, drawing millions of fans to venues across countries, highlights the enduring appeal and unique value of live performances.


In conclusion, although recorded performances offer comfort and convenience, live events deliver emotional and social value that cannot be replaced by technology. Both formats serve different needs, but attending performances in person remains a meaningful experience for many.

IELTS Writing Task 2

There has been a dramatic growth in the number of people studying at universities in the last few decades. While some people see this as a positive trend which raises the general level of education within the community, others fear that it is lowering the quality of education. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the increase in student numbers at university? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. 

Write the topic about 250-300 words for 40 minutes.

 Over the last few decades, the number of people attending university has dramatically increased, bringing both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, the rise in enrollment could be a positive trend that raises the community’s level of education since a larger student body leads to more diversity on campus and helps boost research. However, downsides that could be considered such as overcrowding classes, strained resources, and higher competition for jobs post-graduation.

 One major advantage of rising enrollment is that it raises the overall education level in society. As more people earn degrees, communities benefit as a whole from more knowledgeable and skilled people. Another benefit of a larger student body is more diversity on campus, where students from different countries and backgrounds have opportunities to share ideas and learn from each other. Additionally, having more students helps boost research since with a larger group contributing to projects, universities would be more active and effective in discovering new technologies or solutions to global issues. For instance, many medical discoveries come from large research universities with a high rate of student participation.

 However, this growing enrollment also brings challenges like overcrowding classes and strained resources. Large class sizes can make it harder for professors to give attention to individual students, and libraries or labs may not have enough space and materials for everyone. This might make students feel less supported, which affects their learning. Another concern is the increased competition for jobs as more students graduate could lead to a saturated job market. This makes it difficult for students to find jobs in their field, even after spending years of hard work and studying.

In conclusion, the increase in university enrollment has both benefits and drawbacks. While it raises education levels, promotes diversity, and enhances research, it can also strain resources and create challenges in the job market. Careful planning and decisions are needed to ensure that universities can handle a rapidly growing student population without risking education quality.

Reading books is not only vital but it also brings loads of benefits to everyone. First of all, thanks to reading books we are able to widen our knowledge and vision about our world. For that reason,we have opportunity to learn other’s experiences and precious lessons from them. In addition, each book will have own its story, it surely helps people understand its value and they would find the best solution and choice to tackle issues in their lives. Besides, authors give their efforts to express the feelings, emotions and opinions through the books since they want readers can sympathise to their shared stories.

Moreover, reading more books may uplifting people’s brain to imagine through every sight. Especially, elderly individuals still keep doing such thing as a habit. Although they are old but their mind is so bright. On the contrary, some teenagers have the tendency to sit in front of the TV screen for long hours. This would lessen their thinking and lead to eye diseases.

In conclusion, watching movies on TV only makes them more passive and lazy while reading books may helps them escape from the sedentary lifestyle and enrich knowledge. We should encourage everyone to read more books together because of its importance and advantages.

Chủ Đề về Môi Trường - Topic about Environment (IELTS Writing Task 2)

How air pollution impacts health

"Air quality monitoring and measurement are critical for public health, says Yanelli Nunez, a postdoctoral research scientist at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health.

She notes that robust studies have shown that air pollution contributes to lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and lower respiratory infections, and even impacts mortality, pregnancy outcomes and cardiovascular disease.

Nunez works in an environmental health sciences laboratory with Marianthi-Anna Kioumourtzoglou. Their research has also found long-term exposure to air pollution can affect the nervous system and may influence functions such as memory or cognitive capabilities.

The scientists wrote in an e-mail to CNBC: “Americans living in poor air quality areas tend to be people of color or low-income communities. We are finally starting to pay more attention to these issues, which hopefully will lead to change. The air pollution composition is also changing.”

In one example, greenhouse gas emissions from transportation declined in New York City from 2014 to 2017, while commercial cooking emissions rose.

With increased wildfires, the scientists wrote, “The sources and composition of the air pollution mixture that we are experiencing could differently impact our health, so we need to better understand source-specific effects, especially for these newly prominent sources.”

Indoor air matters, too

While outdoor air quality is important, society doesn’t talk or do enough about indoor air quality, said Richard Corsi, UC Davis’ incoming dean of the college of engineering, currently a professor and dean at Portland State University.

Using pre-pandemic numbers, Corsi explained that the average American would spend almost 70 out of 79 years of their life domiciled inside of buildings. “Because we spend so much time indoors, even our exposure to pollutants of outdoor origin is dominated by what we breathe there, especially in our homes,” he said.

Pollutants of outdoor origin which come from the likes of internal combustion engine vehicles, photochemical smog, refineries and wildfires can get into homes and buildings when doors and windows are opened, when heat and air conditioning systems are used, or through other cracks in the building envelope.

Consumer apps and devices today don’t give users an absolute, precise measurement down to micrograms per cubic meter of a given pollutant, Corsi noted. But they’re very valuable for spotting trends and relative changes in air quality.

Sensors set up indoors can work well to check whether protective measures are working to improve the air inside of a house, school or other building.

Especially during wildfire season, Corsi said, some other simple actions that can protect or improve air quality indoors include: wet-mopping floors and wiping surfaces so pollutants don’t accumulate, using HEPA or high-efficiency particulate air filters, and increasing the MERV or minimum efficiency reporting value of filters in central air systems in a house."
