Question 2 (4 points):
1. Introduction: Introduce the topic of discussion: How can we always find joy in our school years?
2. Body:
* Explanation: The joys of school life: memorable emotions and experiences during the time spent in school with teachers, friends, etc.
* Discussion: Express your own opinion on the topic of discussion and use reasoning and evidence to analyze and prove your point.
- Reasons for proposing this measure:
+ A brief overview of the value and significance of the joys of school life;
+ The reality is that some students do not experience joy in school: they always feel pressured, tired, or even afraid to go to school,...
+ Consequences of this: students let their beautiful youthful years slip away in regret, their academic results are poor, causing worry for their parents, etc.
- Propose several measures to help students find joy in their school years:
Students need to understand the significance of their school years. They need to grasp that "Every day at school is a joyful day," and that every memory shared with friends and teachers is priceless. From this understanding, they should learn to cherish, appreciate, and live life to the fullest during their beautiful youthful years.
Students need to actively study to improve their knowledge and actively participate in activities to develop their skills. This not only creates a solid foundation for life but also brings joy from connecting and accompanying teachers and friends.
Live openly and sincerely; always love your friends and teachers; record memories with teachers and friends through handwritten notes, photos, video clips, etc.
Parents need to accompany, support, and create conditions for students to learn and play during their school years. Avoid creating "pressure" or stress that makes students feel tired and discouraged in their studies.
The school needs to innovate its teaching methods, create a healthy learning environment, and foster the active and proactive participation of students...
(Students should provide appropriate evidence to clarify the argumentative issue. They could use the example of the two friends Ngo Minh Hieu and Nguyen Tat Minh, who shared 10 wonderful years together in their studies and lives, sharing inspiring stories about their beautiful school days.)
- Share your personal experiences related to the topic of discussion and draw lessons from them.
3. Conclusion: Affirming the main point.
