Topic: What causes students to cheat on the exams?
Nowadays, cheating is still one of the faults in school. The fact makes a lot of teachers have headache. But what causes students to cheat on the exams? Perhaps, the reasons leading cheating start from the benefits private of students and the ease of teachers.
First of all, students want to cheat because they want to have good marks. Although they do not have to spend too much time on studying the lessons, they still get the good marks. Taking advantages of whenever the teacher does not pay attention, the students will use any tricks of cheating such as: the documents that they prepared carefully at home, or the students who are too shameless are willing to open the books of the subject to write all things they need. Some students are hard working but in some cases they still cheat. For examples, they do not want to get bad mark because they do not know or are not ready to have a test that the teacher makes them surprise and at that time they did not learn by heart anything before, so they cheat. Often their marks are higher than the students who do not cheat and as high as the students who studied at home. Some students are very hard working in this subject, which relates to their major in the future, but they are not interested in that subject, so they think that cheating is necessary for getting a good mark. These things will be difficult to avoid if the students still want to have their own benefits.
Besides, the ease of teachers is also a reason of students’ cheating. They know their students cheating but they still let them cheat. In the exams, they do another things such as read newspapers, correcting the papers instead of paying attention to their students who are doing the test. And of course, the students will not lose the opportunity to cheat. Even a lot of teachers go out immediately when they write the questions of the test on the board or give the photo papers test to their students. Then a half of the time or after the bell finishing, they come back and collect the papers. The students really hardly get over the seduction of cheating. The teachers think that will make their students a chance to have the good results. In contrast, it is very harmful because it makes the students lazier and have no knowledge in the subject. It also contributes to the fault of the school because of the teachers who are too easy and gentle in the exams.
It can be said that there are not only the factor inside, which starts from the benefits private of students, but also the factor outside, which starts the ease of teachers, are the causes of cheating. Every students needs to know cheating is the bad behavior and be aware of studying and learning by heart are very important and useful for their future. That will help the school push the fault of cheating back far away.

Topic: Compare I now with I ten years ago

Standing in front of the mirror yesterday, I suddenly found that I had a little different from I ten years ago. It was the thing I never paid attention to until I got the topic from my teacher. My appearance seems a little bit different from I in the past but it is also in common.

            The first thing I looked at my appearance was taller than ten years ago about 33 centimeters. It can be said that the height average with Vietnamese girls is 1.58 meters is OK but I have the height pass over another and I am proud of that. I remembered every times I walked from the gate school to the class or went into the stores, the shops, the supermarkets, everywhere, and even just walked along the streets, a lot of people asked me with the funny questions like “What do you eat in the meals?”, “Why can you be tall like that?”, “Your height is really amazing”. At that time I just smiled slightly and said “It thanks to my parents gene”. That made me very excited because I also like another in eating. Although I did not drink milk everyday and swam a lot when I was a little girl, I am still tall. And just one way can explain about that my mother and my grandfather are tall, so am I.

     Besides the difference in the appearance, I am still also thin like in ten years ago. I have never forgot when I was in grade 4, my teacher requested the class to went to the medical room to weigh, measure and checked the health. I was just 22 kilograms and it was not balance with my 1.3 meters, the measure machine said that “you are so thin that you need to eat much more.” Now I am 1.63 meters but my weight- 44 kilograms- is not enough. My friends sometimes call me with the nickname “tall and thin” and I do not like that, so I try to eat. However, tiredness of eating seems take root deeply in mine. That makes me not be able to eat anymore. For example, I rarely go to the canteen to eat with my friends because it is not suitable for my taste and I make the food redundant. I know that is my mistake but I cannot. That is the reason why I often eat in the supermarket and limit to eat in the canteen. Comparison the past, I also liked that, I sometimes let my mother eat my food and the reason I gave was “Mommy, my stomach is full enough, please help me”. My mother quarreled but she still ate for me. In conclusion, my weight cannot still be improved up to the present because of the tiredness of eating.

            It was really interesting when I found the difference and the similarity in my appearance between I and I ten years ago. I wonder I must improve my weight too much, which need to be suitable for my height. If I can do that, it will make me more good looking and be better than now.

Topic: People say watching TV is a harmful habit.
I watch television everyday whenever I have free time, after school, after doing homework or during eating meal. I love watching so much. Watching television brings us a lot of practical benefits.
Television is the one of the greatest inventions of humanity for several reasons. First, television provides a lot of new strange knowledge about life through the news or the daily programs. They are always updated, so we are easy to keep. We can absolutely believe because of exact and fast information. Some people say that watching television is a harmful habit. May be they mean it is harmful for eyes, it makes children lazy with their studying. That is really a mistake. Once children want to be lazy, they can think out another plans such as going out with their friends, asking their parents for playing sports, chatting in the Internet instead of doing their homework or something like that. In addition, it is not harmful for eyes if we sit a suitable distance to the television and watch in the permission time.
Next, television is convenient. We immerse with information that it brings without going far away. We can know what is happening even we are not there. For examples, we are in Vietnam, we can hold the news of America which is the country far a half of a circle from us, or the war between America and Iraq. We can live in the stories that films perform, sympathize with the hurt of the characters. We can enjoy with the fashion programs, so we do not scare about unknowing modern fashion. Some people say television wastes time. However, if they see its usefulness about helping us to relax after stress lessons or working, they will not say that.
Nowadays, television became a familiar equipment that can not lack in each family. We can also find information in the Internet but television still affirm its position because of its practical benefits.

Topic: childhood event
When I was a little girl, my elder sister and I always played together. On that day, we have had a lot of memories that are never forgotten. One of those that makes me the most memorable was whenever we watched the horror films or listened to the CD,VCD player together. It was the scare times of mine.
Every times my sister borrowed a disc from her friend, it was often about the horror film. I wondered “why does she love the film like that?. It was so frightening”
It was on my free time, usually in the evening of the weekend when I did not study, did not have homework and neither did my sister. She asked me to watch the horror films with her. I did not have any reasons to deny except I was scared. I told her I discouraged to watch but she smiled, gave me a big hand and said: “I want you to relax with these films, you will be braver. They are very interesting”. She persuded me and started to turn on the record disc player. It made me curious and I watched.
The more I watched, the more I was scared. I was thrilled with each detail of sudden scenes. Naturally, I shouted loudly so that my mother could not sleep. “Can you keep silent or scream smaller? Your father and your younger brother are sleeping”, she said. Then I did not make noise more. Sometimes I glanced my sister, she sticked her eyes with the television and was not scared like me.
At the end of the film, the horror characters were always on my mind. Whenever I saw something, I imaged it like a ghost or a person with white clothes, a falling down hair and a wet body looking at me. When I saw the outside of the window, somebody was flying with frightening eyes. I knew it was just an imaginary thought but I was still scared.
Going to the bed, it was darker and darker, 0.00 a.m, I could not sleep, I waked my sister up, she made me scared one more time with her scary voice about those films. No way, I let her sleep and was alone to stay up late. Those things were appeared again. I turned around and hugged my sister, thought that: “If I do not sleep, these things will still exist on my mind”, then I slept.
Every when I watched the horror films of my sister, I continued to have bad, uncomfortable feelings in the next few days. Because she turned them on in front of me, it was too difficult foe me to no seeing. Until she went abroad, I need not watch the scary movies. But I think that when she comes back, we will continue again because I have decreased the scary feeling now. It is really a memorable memory of us.
