VSTEP Speaking Mock Test 05

Yes, I enjoy going to parties because they are a good way to relax and meet people. At a party, I usually talk with friends, enjoy the food, listen to music, and take some photos. I do not like very noisy parties, but I enjoy friendly and comfortable ones. My family usually holds parties on birthdays, New Year holidays, and sometimes when someone achieves something important. I think parties are meaningful because they bring people together and create good memories.

The part of the city I like best is the city center because it is lively and convenient. There are many shops, cafes, parks, and entertainment places, so people can do many things there. I also like the atmosphere, especially in the evening when the streets are bright and busy. However, I would like to make some changes, such as reducing traffic jams and adding more green spaces. If the city had more trees and cleaner public areas, it would become a much better place to live.

I think shopping in a mall is the best option for buying a brand watch. A watch can be expensive, so I want to see the real product before paying for it. In a mall, I can try it on, check the size and design, and ask the staff for advice. It is also easier to know whether the watch is genuine. Ordering through a website may be convenient, but there is a risk of receiving the wrong product or a fake one. Calling over the phone is even less reliable because I cannot see anything clearly. Therefore, I would choose to buy the watch directly in a mall.

There are several important factors that lead to success in life. First, education and skills are necessary because they give people knowledge and the ability to solve problems. Without useful skills, it is difficult to get a good job or improve ourselves. Second, vision is important because successful people usually know what they want and make clear plans for the future. Third, passion helps people stay motivated, even when they face difficulties. Many people judge success by money because it is easy to see and measure, but I do not think money is the only sign of success. My parents may care more about a stable life, while I also value happiness and personal growth. Luck can help, but hard work is still more important.
