1) One good habit I have is planning my day the night before. I usually write down three or four important tasks so that I know what I should focus on the next day. 2) I developed this habit when I became very busy with both study and work. I sometimes forgot deadlines, so I started using a simple to-do list. After a few weeks, it became part of my routine. 3) Good habits are important because small actions repeated every day can create long-term results. For example, studying English for twenty minutes every day is usually more effective than studying for several hours only once a week.

1) I eat at restaurants about once or twice a week, usually with friends or family. On normal days, I prefer eating at home because it is cheaper and healthier. 2) I like small local restaurants because the food is usually fresh, affordable, and familiar. I especially enjoy places that serve Vietnamese dishes. 3) In my opinion, a good restaurant needs tasty food, reasonable prices, clean surroundings, and friendly service. For example, even a simple restaurant can become popular if the staff are polite and the food is consistently good.

I would choose a holiday as the birthday present. A holiday can create a special memory and give her mother time to relax, especially if she has been busy with work or family responsibilities. For example, a short two-day trip to a peaceful place could allow the whole family to spend quality time together. A book is meaningful and affordable, but it is only suitable if we know exactly what kind of books she enjoys. A dress can be a nice personal gift, but choosing the correct size and style may be difficult. Although a holiday is more expensive, I think it is the best option because it provides an experience rather than just an object, and the memory can last for a long time.

Main response: Soft skills are very important for students because academic knowledge alone is not enough for study and future work. First, time-management skills help students organize classes, assignments, exams, and personal activities. For example, a weekly schedule can prevent them from leaving important tasks until the last minute. Second, students need to know how to use available resources effectively. This means choosing useful books, online materials, teachers, classmates, and digital tools instead of wasting time on too much information. For example, when preparing a presentation, a student can divide the research among reliable sources and ask a teacher for feedback. Third, problem-solving skills help students deal with unexpected difficulties. Instead of giving up, they can identify the problem, consider possible solutions, and choose the most practical one. This skill is useful in group projects as well as in daily life. Follow-up 1: I think time management is the most important because poor planning can affect every other area of study. Follow-up 2: Schools can use group projects, presentations, clubs, case studies, and practical workshops so that students have real situations in which to practice communication, teamwork, and problem solving. Follow-up 3: I believe soft skills can definitely be learned. Some people may be naturally confident, but regular practice, feedback, and experience can improve these skills significantly.
