🔥Bài mẫu IELTS Speaking Part 1 chủ đề "Plants'" kèm từ vựng (Quý 3/2025)

Do you keep plants?
Yes, I do, because maintaining plants at home gives me a sense of serenity (sự thanh thản – the state of being calm and peaceful). They not only improve the air quality but also create a more aesthetically pleasing (mang tính thẩm mỹ – visually attractive and beautiful) environment. For instance, I keep a small indoor garden on my balcony with succulents and orchids that brighten my mornings.

Have you ever had a plant?
Definitely, I once had a resilient (có khả năng hồi phục – able to withstand or recover quickly from difficulties) cactus when I was in high school. It required minimal care, which suited my busy lifestyle at that time. To give an example, I could forget to water it for weeks and it would still thrive, unlike other delicate flowers.>> tham khảo CẦN VIẾT & THU ÂM BAO NHIÊU BÀI ĐỂ ĐẠT 8.0 SPEAKING & 7.0 WRITING?

Do you know anything about growing a plant?
Yes, I do, because my grandmother taught me the intricacies (sự phức tạp – the detailed and complicated aspects of something) of gardening when I was young. She always emphasized patience and timing, like watering plants early in the morning to avoid evaporation. I still recall helping her nurture tomato vines, which made me feel proud when they bore fruit.

What plants did you grow when you were younger?
When I was a child, I grew herbal plants (cây thảo mộc – plants used for medicine or cooking) such as mint and basil. They were easy to cultivate, and my family often used them in home-cooked meals. For example, I remember picking fresh basil leaves for my mother’s noodle soup, which added both flavor and fragrance.

Do people in your country send plants as gifts?
Yes, they do, especially during festivals or housewarming parties, because gifting plants symbolizes longevity (sự trường thọ – long life and durability) and good fortune. Instead of ordinary presents, many prefer giving bonsai or lucky bamboo as they are thought to attract prosperity. My uncle, for instance, once gave me a bonsai tree when I moved into my new apartment.
