How often do you go to a cinema to watch a movie?

Bạn thường đi xem phim ở rạp bao lâu một lần?

[POINT]Point

I go to the cinema occasionally rather than every week because most everyday viewing now happens at home.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

My streaming habits are convenient, so I usually go out for a cinema trip only when a film seems especially worth seeing on a large screen.

[EXAMPLE]Example

I might go for a major action film or when friends suggest meeting there.

[EXTEND]Extend

It is not exactly once in a blue moon, but cinema visits feel more like special outings now than a routine way of watching movies.

Why do children like special costumes?

Tại sao trẻ em lại thích những bộ trang phục đặc biệt?

[POINT]Point

Children like special costumes because dressing up lets them use imagination and temporarily become someone else.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Role-play makes stories more active and gives children a way to copy favourite characters, jobs or heroes.

[EXAMPLE]Example

A child wearing an astronaut costume may invent a space mission and play with friends for hours.

[EXTEND]Extend

Dress-up play can also build confidence and social skills because children practise speaking, cooperating and creating stories together rather than only consuming entertainment passively.

Part 3Topic 14 - Media, Music & EntertainmentEasy-Intermediate

Is it interesting to be an actor or actress?

Nghề diễn viên có thú vị không?

[POINT]Point

Acting can be very interesting because performers experience different characters, stories and working environments.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Each character role creates a new performance challenge and gives actors a chance to explore emotions or situations unlike their own lives.

[EXAMPLE]Example

One project may be a comedy and the next a historical drama, so the work can feel varied.

[EXTEND]Extend

However, public attention, long hours and repeated auditions can be tiring, so the profession is interesting but not necessarily easy.

Part 3Topic 14 - Media, Music & EntertainmentEasy-Intermediate

Is being a professional actor or actress a good career?

Liệu nghề diễn viên chuyên nghiệp có phải là một nghề tốt?

[POINT]Point

Professional acting can be a rewarding career, but it is highly competitive and uncertain.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Many people struggle to break into the industry, and job insecurity remains common even for talented performers.

[EXAMPLE]Example

An actor may work intensely for several months and then have a long period without a major role.

[EXTEND]Extend

A strong professional network, training and persistence can improve opportunities, so acting is a good career for people who genuinely enjoy the work and can accept irregular income and repeated rejection.

Part 3Topic 14 - Media, Music & EntertainmentEasy-Intermediate

Are actors and actresses important to movies?

Diễn viên nam và nữ có vai trò quan trọng trong phim ảnh không?

[POINT]Point

Actors and actresses are extremely important because they turn a written character into someone audiences can believe in.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Strong screen presence and convincing character portrayal create viewer connection and make the story emotionally meaningful.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Even a well-written script may feel weak if the performances are unnatural, while a skilled actor can make a simple scene memorable.

[EXTEND]Extend

Good performers bring a character to life, although film quality also depends on writing, directing, editing and many other creative roles.
