1. Do you think mental health is as important as physical health?
Sample Answer (Band 7.0+):

  1. Yes, I definitely think mental health holds equal significance to physical health.

  2. While physical health is often easier to see and measure, mental health affects everything - from how we think and feel to how we interact with others and cope with stress. For example, someone might appear physically fit but still suffer from anxiety or depression, which can seriously affect their quality of life. In fact, poor mental health can even lead to physical problems, like insomnia or high blood pressure.

  3. So, both should be treated with equal attention and care.

2. What are some common causes of stress in modern life?

Sample Answer (Band 7.0+):

  1. Stress is a part of everyday life for most of us nowadays.

  2. Work-related pressure is one of the major factors. They have to work for long hours, meet tight deadlines and suffer from job insecurity. Also, lack of work-life balance can build up their emotional tension due to the fact that they don’t have enough time to relax or connect with others. In addition, another cause is financial stress. With the rising cost of living, people struggle to pay bills, afford housing, or save money.

  3. In short, modern life presents a range of stressors, many of which stem from professional and financial pressures.

3. How can governments improve healthcare services in rural or remote areas?

Sample Answer (Band 7.0+):

  1. Governments can take various steps to improve healthcare in rural areas. 

  2. The first thing they can do is to build more clinics and improve transport infrastructure. They could also offer higher salaries and benefits to attract medical professionals to work there. Additionally, they can provide mobile medical units which can bring basic healthcare directly to remote villages.

  3. So basically, in my opinion, a mix of investment and innovation is the key to better healthcare services.

4. In your opinion, should healthcare be free for everyone?

Sample Answer (Band 7.0+):

  1. Yes, I firmly believe that healthcare should be free for everyone, especially in a developing country like Vietnam.

  2. Many people, especially those in rural or low-income areas, still struggle to pay for medical treatment. If the government provides free or highly subsidised healthcare, it will help reduce the financial burden and improve public health. For instance, in our country, Vietnam has already made progress with public hospitals and health insurance, but more support is still needed, especially for serious illnesses.

  3. So yeah, healthcare services should be universally accessible to all citizens without financial barriers.

5. Do you think schools should teach children about healthy eating habits?

Sample Answer (Band 7.0+):

  1. Absolutely yes. I strongly believe they should do so.

  2. These days, many kids in Vietnam eat too much fast food, sugary snacks, or drink soft drinks regularly, which can lead to problems like obesity or poor concentration in class. If schools include nutrition education in the curriculum, students can understand what a balanced diet is and how it affects their body and mind. 

  3. Overall, teaching healthy eating is essential for children’s physical and mental development.
