Đề mới nhất từ Cam 9, Task 2, Test 1: Some experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign language at primary school rather than secondary school. Do

Question

Learning foreign language is always considered as an important part in education. There are many  studies and researches about ways to learn foreign language effectively. Some experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign at primary school rather than secondary school. I think it is a good idea, which has its advantages outweighing its disadvantages.

First of all, the most obvious benefit of teaching foreign language for children at primary school is that learners can have a longer time to practice. The key to learning a second language is always practicing because “Practice makes perfect”. The sooner students access with foreign language, the longer time they have to get to know about strange sounds, vocabs and grammar structures. Secondly, the mind of a child is as pure as a paper. Children are easily taught and trained at an early age because their brains still have so many spaces. When they grow up, they have more things to remember so teaching them foreign language can be more difficult.

Nvertheless, it is undeniable that teaching children foreign language at primary school has its disadvantages. We may put them under pressure because learning a foreign language can make their timetables busier and their school curriculum heavier. However, we have many ways to improve this. For example, if songs, stories or puzzles are used suitably in foreign language lessons, children will understand lessons quickly and excitingly. They will no longer consider foreign language as “lessons” but “games” and “fun”.

To sum up, teaching children foreign language at primary  has its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. Waiting a children until they go to secondary school to teach them foreign language is not necessary and can prevent them from developing language skill.

Answer 1

There are good ideas in this essay.

However, you should pay attention to the grammar: No longer:

As far as I know, no longer+V-ing: They will no longer considering.....

Thank you for your comment.
However, I don't think the structure "no longer + V-ing" is right.
According to Cambridge Dictionary, this is an example of "no longer"
"He no longer works here"

Anyway, thank you :3

t thấy c lặp lại từ OUTWEIGH, có thể thay lại là DOMINATE nhé

Ngoài ra, có thể thay thế từ FOREIGN LANGUAGE  = THE SECOND LANGUAGE = OTHER LANGUAGE

Answer 3

Chào bạn!

Ý tưởng của bạn rất chính xác, dễ hiểu. Trình bày bố cục tốt, có paraphrase và dùng cụm. Tuy nhiên, bạn nên chú ý viết sao cho formal và tránh diễn đạt theo lối nghĩ của người Việt đồng thời dùng từ cho chuẩn và hợp hoàn cảnh. Dưới đây là 1 số từ đồng nghĩa mình nghĩ sẽ giúp ích cho bạn:

outweigh= surpass

primary school= elementary school

secondary school= junior high school

rather than= in stead of

foreign language= second language

advantage= benefit= advantageous/ beneficial/ positive effect

disadvantage= drawback= disadvantageous/ negative effect.
