Mẫu câu trả lời
introduction | Today, I’d like to talk about one of my favorite foods that I usually enjoy during a traditional festival in Vietnam, and that’s bánh chưng. |
|
what the food is | Bánh chưng is a traditional Vietnamese dish, especially popular during Tết, which is the Lunar New Year. It’s a square-shaped rice cake made from sticky rice, green mung beans, and pork, all wrapped in lá dong (dong leaves). Almost every Vietnamese family has bánh chưng on their table during Tết, as it’s a symbol of our culture and traditions. |
|
at which traditional festival/special event you eat it | ||
how it is made | The process of making bánh chưng is pretty unique and requires a lot of time and patience. First, the ingredients—sticky rice, mung beans, and pork—are prepared and layered in the leaves. Then, the cake is wrapped tightly to keep everything together. Once wrapped, it’s boiled for 8-10 hours. Many families make this together, turning it into a fun family activity where everyone gathers around the pot to wait for the cakes to cook. The final product is a delicious, soft, and slightly sticky rice cake that has a rich and savory flavor. |
|
explain why the food is your favorite | I think I love bánh chưng so much not only because it’s tasty, but because it’s filled with memories and tradition. Growing up, my family would always gather to make and cook bánh chưng, which created a lot of happy memories. This food represents family bonds, cultural pride, and the spirit of Tết. Whenever I eat bánh chưng, I feel connected to my roots and remember all the good times with my family. |
|
conclusion | Overall, bánh chưng is not just a food to me; it’s a symbol of Vietnamese tradition and the joy of celebrating Tết with loved ones. |

Ví dụ về Part 3 trong IELTS Speaking
1. Bạn nghĩ việc dùng điện thoại trong bữa ăn có phải là hành vi xấu không?
Câu trả lời mẫu: Well, it kind of depends on the context and the company, right? Generally, yeah, it’s considered a bit rude to be on your phone when you’re eating with others. It can make the people you're with feel undervalued or ignored. Sharing a meal is supposed to be a social activity, where you catch up and connect. Checking your phone might take away from that personal interaction, unless, of course, everyone’s doing it, like sometimes happens with friends sharing something funny or relevant.

2. Why do people enjoy having a large meal during traditional celebrations or major events?
Câu trả lời mẫu: Oh, there’s something really special about gathering around a big meal during festivals or big events. It’s a way to celebrate, right? These meals often bring people together and strengthen bonds through shared traditions. Plus, the food is usually pretty spectacular, featuring dishes that might not be prepared every day. It’s a way to mark the occasion as something out of the ordinary, making it memorable and giving everyone something to look forward to and enjoy together.

3. Do most people in your country prefer buying vegetables from supermarkets or growing them at home?

There’s just something about the taste and quality of something you’ve grown yourself, not to mention knowing it’s free from unnecessary chemicals. But realistically, not everyone has the time or space to grow their own vegetables, especially in urban areas, so supermarkets are often the go-to for convenience and variety.

4. What challenges do people face when trying to grow plants in urban areas?
Câu trả lời mẫu: Definitely, growing plants in cities comes with its own set of challenges. Space is a big one—many city dwellers just don’t have much of it. Balconies, windowsills, or small community gardens often have to suffice. Pollution can also be an issue, as it might stunt growth or damage plants. Plus, lack of natural light in densely built areas can make it tricky to grow certain types of plants. However, with a bit of creativity and the right choices, urban gardening can still be quite rewarding.
