IV. Part 2

IELTS TUTOR gợi ý bài tham khảo:

Today, I would like to tell you about a thrilling live football match I had the chance to watch a few months ago — a Champions League quarter-final between Manchester City and Real Madrid.

I watched it last April, during the mid-week clash that had fans across the globe on the edge of their seats.

I saw the match through a high-definition live stream (truyền phát trực tiếp độ nét cao - a crystal-clear video broadcast) on my laptop at home, along with some of my football-crazy (đam mê bóng đá - extremely passionate about football) friends. We even prepared snacks and wore our team jerseys to create a stadium-like atmosphere (không khí như trong sân vận động - an environment that feels like a real stadium).

What makes this event particularly memorable for me is the roller-coaster of emotions (cảm xúc lên xuống thất thường - a sudden and extreme range of feelings) it brought. First, both teams demonstrated top-notch (chất lượng hàng đầu - of the highest quality) technical skills, with breathtaking passes and unpredictable attacks. One highlight was when De Bruyne scored a last-minute equaliser (bàn gỡ hòa phút chót - a goal scored just before the game ends to tie the score), which led the entire room to erupt in cheers.

What I truly enjoy about watching such matches is not just the game itself, but the electrifying atmosphere (bầu không khí sôi động - very exciting or tense environment) it creates — both in the stadium and at home. Live sports events offer a rare kind of shared excitement (niềm vui chung - the emotional bond formed through shared thrill), where even total strangers can become friends for 90 minutes.>> Form đăng kí giải đề thi thật IELTS 4 kĩ năng kèm bài giải bộ đề 100 đề PART 2 IELTS SPEAKING quý đang thi (update hàng tuần) từ IELTS TUTOR

Moreover, football matches like this are a great stress-reliever (biện pháp xả stress - an activity that helps reduce tension), especially after a hectic school week (tuần học bận rộn - extremely busy week at school). They offer a temporary escape from reality (thoát khỏi thực tại tạm thời - a short mental break from daily stress), allowing me to switch off and simply live in the moment.

V. Part 3

❓ Question 1:

What is the relationship between sports events and audiences?

The bond between sports events and audiences is undeniably symbiotic (symbiotic - English: mutually beneficial / Vietnamese: có mối quan hệ cộng sinh, hỗ trợ lẫn nhau), as each side gains value from the other. Fans provide moral support (moral support - English: emotional encouragement / Vietnamese: sự cổ vũ về tinh thần) and generate an electric atmosphere that motivates players to perform at their best. In turn, the event offers spectators a thrilling escape (thrilling escape - English: an exciting break from routine / Vietnamese: một sự giải trí đầy kịch tính) from their daily grind. For example, football matches between long-time rivals like Real Madrid and Barcelona are not just games but emotion-charged spectacles (emotion-charged spectacles - English: dramatic and emotionally intense shows / Vietnamese: màn trình diễn đầy cảm xúc). Moreover, fans' involvement through fan chants, team merchandise, and game-day traditions fosters a deep sense of belonging. This collective enthusiasm (collective enthusiasm - English: shared excitement / Vietnamese: sự hào hứng tập thể) turns simple matches into cultural phenomena. Without audiences, many sporting events would lose their soul-stirring energy (soul-stirring energy - English: deeply moving excitement / Vietnamese: năng lượng làm rung động tâm hồn). Therefore, it's safe to say that audiences are the lifeblood of any major sports competition.

❓ Question 2:

How do prizes affect athletes’ performance?

Prizes significantly amplify (amplify - English: increase or intensify / Vietnamese: làm tăng lên, khuếch đại) athletes' motivation to push beyond their limits. A large monetary award or international recognition acts as a powerful incentive (powerful incentive - English: strong motivation / Vietnamese: động lực mạnh mẽ) for many players, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds. Take Olympic gold medals, for example—they not only represent prestige but can lead to sponsorship deals and lifelong career benefits. On the flip side, excessive focus on prizes (excessive focus - English: too much attention / Vietnamese: sự chú trọng quá mức) can lead to unethical behavior (unethical behavior - English: immoral actions / Vietnamese: hành vi phi đạo đức), such as doping or cheating. Some athletes may compromise their values to achieve short-term glory (short-term glory - English: temporary success / Vietnamese: vinh quang ngắn hạn). Nevertheless, most elite players use prizes as fuel to maintain grit and perseverance (grit and perseverance - English: resilience and determination / Vietnamese: lòng kiên trì và nghị lực). Prizes serve as a benchmark of excellence (benchmark of excellence - English: standard for measuring success / Vietnamese: chuẩn mực của sự xuất sắc), helping athletes stay committed to rigorous training. In this sense, prizes can either inspire or corrupt, depending on the mindset of the athlete.>> tham khảo CẦN VIẾT & THU ÂM BAO NHIÊU BÀI ĐỂ ĐẠT 8.0 SPEAKING & 7.0 WRITING?

❓ Question 3:

What is the role of the media in sports?

The media plays a pivotal role (pivotal role - English: extremely important function / Vietnamese: vai trò then chốt) in shaping how sports are consumed and perceived by the public. Through 24/7 coverage (24/7 coverage - English: continuous broadcasting / Vietnamese: phát sóng liên tục 24 giờ mỗi ngày), it keeps fans connected to their favorite teams and athletes. Platforms like YouTube and TikTok have made it easier than ever to access bite-sized highlights (bite-sized highlights - English: short, digestible video clips / Vietnamese: các đoạn nổi bật ngắn) and in-depth analysis (in-depth analysis - English: thorough examination / Vietnamese: phân tích chuyên sâu). Additionally, media outlets contribute to creating sports celebrities (sports celebrities - English: famous athletes / Vietnamese: các ngôi sao thể thao) whose influence extends far beyond the field. However, sensationalized reporting (sensationalized reporting - English: exaggerated news coverage / Vietnamese: tin tức giật gân) can damage reputations and distort facts. For instance, an athlete's minor mistake might be blown out of proportion (blown out of proportion - English: exaggerated excessively / Vietnamese: làm quá vấn đề). Despite its flaws, the media helps sports reach global audiences and promotes values like teamwork and resilience. In short, media is both a megaphone and a magnifying glass for modern sports.
