1. In a traditional family in your country, what do men do in the family? And what about women? Why?

It comes as no surprise that are still responsible for most of the housework in a family, traditional or not. Even though gender equality is actively in modern society, there is still an imbalance in household chores division. Housewives take care of almost everything from cooking, laundering, dishwashing to house cleaning while their are only concerned with some hard work occasionally such as mending pipes or gardening.

  • It comes as no surprise: không có gì đáng ngạc nhiên
  • Promote: tuyên truyền
  • Mending pipe: sửa đường ống

2. Do you think men should take care of babies? Why?

Both mother and father have roles in a child’s development from birth through adulthood, I believe. Hence, men should be more active in raising kids since they can boost their children, intellectually and socially. Research has shown that children who have a close father-child relationship are likely to have better and fewer behavioral problems since they are more emotionally secure. Meanwhile, a distant or non-existent father-child bond could take a horrendous toll on a kid’s self-esteem and self-belief. Thus, if you want to raise a well-rounded kid, pay attention to them.

  • Fundamental: cơ bản
  • Superfluous: thừa thãi, vô dụng
  • Bond: mối quan hệ
  • Take a horrendous toll: ảnh hưởng nặng nề
  • Self-esteem: cái tôi
  • Well-rounded: giáo dục tốt

3. Should husbands and wives have different roles within the family?

Yes, there should be allocation between spouses. However, who does what is not the point here. It is mutual understanding and respect that really matters. Husbands and wives should to build a better home, for an individual’s health, time and stamina is apparently limited, so no one can really cover every single task.

  • Allocation: sự phân công
  • Spouse: vợ chồng
  • Mutual understanding: sự thấu hiểu lẫn nhau
  • Stamina: sức lực

4. Who will pay for the wedding cost? Man or woman or both? Why?

Budget planning for weddings can be and deciding who pays what might not be easy since there are tons of expenses to cover such as the rings, floral arrangements, honeymoon, and so on. Hence, I believe depending on each couple’s financial status, they should carefully and choose a cost-splitting option that works best for them. For example, if both are financially abundant, they can share the cost equally. Otherwise, one who is more well-off can cover a greater portion of the expense.

  • Budget: ngân sách
  • Expense: chi phí
  • Financial status: năng lực tài chính

5. Do you think men should do housework? Why?

Housework is definitely not women’s sole and men should share domestic chores with female members of the family. Becoming more and independent is the very first benefit when men take care of their own housework. Most men, especially wealthy ones, prefer to have their housemaid do all the work from cleaning the house to cooking. However, what if she gets sick or has emergency issues, are they willing to go out with dirty socks? Hence, no one can look after you better than yourself. Furthermore, they are likely to become more and thoughtful husbands. Men who are not shy away from “housewife’s duties” will be more well-prepared for married life since they don’t mind rolling up their sleeves to help their family.

  • Sole: duy nhất
  • Disciplined: kỷ luật
  • Riotous: ồn ào, không kỷ luật
  • Indifferent: thờ ơ, hờ hững
  • Roll up their sleeves: xắn tay áo, bắt đầu làm gì đó
Ôn luyện
