Bài mẫu chủ đề City IELTS Speaking Part 1
1. Bạn có thích thành phố bạn đang sống hiện tại không?
Yes, I really enjoy living in Ho Chi Minh City where I was born and raised. Historically speaking, it is more than 300 years old. At present, this city is overcrowded with a population of more or less than 10 million, with the problem of daily traffic congestion and the pollution level here is kinda high, but it’s still attracting more and more people, including both tourists and immigrants.

2. Do you favor urban or rural areas?
Frankly speaking, although possessing a peaceful and calm atmosphere that could help refresh any stressful mind, the countryside is only an ideal place for the rich or the elderly. I grew up in a crowded city filled with hurly-burly and endless opportunities to work and enjoy modern amenities, therefore, I wouldn’t hesitate to say that I’m definitely a city person.

3. Is it advantageous for young individuals to grow up in urban areas?
Well, my hometown is one of the most crowded and developed cities in the country, thus young people consistently see it as a promising land where there are more educational and career opportunities for them. However, I would say that despite being a great place for the youth to study and earn a living, big cities are overpopulated places with an alarming pollution level. So I guess, it’s just like two sides of a coin.

Historically speaking, this city is a centuries-old one… you know, more than 300 years old. Though the city has gone through countless changes and ended up with a district with skyscrapers and a more futuristic look, it still retains many historical sites, one of which is Bến Thành Market or the Saigon Botanical garden.

- Retire (v): nghỉ hưu
