Dear Hanh,

Chào hỏi & dẫn dắtHow are you doing these days? I just came back from a picnic with my classmates, and I really want to share the experience with you.

① Vật dụng cần mangFirst of all, I think there are some essential things that everyone should bring to a picnic. For example, food and drinks are a must, but it is also important to have a picnic mat, sunscreen, and some simple games like cards or a ball. These things help everyone relax and enjoy the outdoor activities more.

② Cách chuẩn bịBefore the picnic, my friends and I made some careful preparations. We divided the responsibilities: some people prepared food, others took care of drinks, and I was in charge of bringing music and games. We also checked the weather forecast to make sure it would be a sunny day, and we chose a location that was not too far from the city.

③ Vì sao vui & trọn vẹnBecause of these preparations, the picnic turned out to be really fun and smooth. We had delicious food, played exciting games, and even sang together while sitting on the mat. Nobody had to worry about missing items or unexpected problems, so we could just focus on enjoying the day together.

Kết & lời mờiI hope we can go on a picnic together next time. I’m sure you will love it as much as I did.

Best wishes,
Lan

Mở bài + luận điểmGlobalization — the growing interconnection of economies, media, and people — has reshaped almost every society on earth. While some people fear that it erodes local cultures, I believe its overall impact on cultural identity is more positive than negative, provided that communities make a conscious effort to preserve their heritage.

Thân bài 1 — mặt tráiOn the one hand, it is true that globalization can threaten local traditions. Global brands and Western entertainment are now everywhere, and younger generations sometimes prefer fast food, foreign films, and international fashion to their own customs. For example, in many Vietnamese cities, young people celebrate Western holidays such as Halloween or Valentine’s Day far more enthusiastically than some traditional festivals, and a few folk crafts are slowly disappearing because they seem less “modern”.

Thân bài 2 — mặt tích cựcOn the other hand, globalization also offers powerful tools to protect and spread local culture. Thanks to the internet and social media, a traditional dish, a folk song, or a regional costume can reach millions of people abroad within hours. Vietnamese cuisine, for instance, has become world-famous: dishes like phở and bánh mì are now sold in almost every major city, which makes Vietnamese people proud of their identity rather than ashamed of it, and even brings income through tourism.

Kết bàiIn conclusion, although globalization does put pressure on certain traditions, I think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. Cultures have always changed and borrowed from one another; what truly matters is balance. If governments support cultural education and individuals stay connected to their roots, globalization can enrich local identity instead of destroying it.
