Mẫu câu trả lời IELTS Speaking chủ đề thức ăn

2.1 What is your favorite food?

Well, I would say since I have a sweet tooth, I am a huge fan of desserts. But if I had to choose one, it would be cheesecakes. I usually follow a recipe I learned from the Internet. It has quite a few ingredients, but the process is not complicated. On special occasions, I usually make cheesecakes to serve my family after dinner.

  • ingredients: thành phần

  • special occasions: dịp đặc biệt

2.2 Is there any food you dislike?

I’m not a picky person, so I don’t have any problems with food. However, raw fish such as salmon or tuna sashimi is not my cup of tea. I can’t stand anything stinky or fishy. I would prefer them to be well-cooked in a hot pot or something like that. 

Vocabulary:

  • Picky: khó tính

  • Raw: đồ sống

  • My cup of tea: sở thích

  • Fishy: tanh

2.3 What are some traditional foods in your country?

Well, Vietnam has a very rich cultural diversity, which means that there are various types of traditional food. To name some, there are Chung cake, spicy beef noodle soup, or sticky rice. Actually, every region has its own local speciality, but I do believe that Pho is still the most popular one among other dishes. It’s very well-seasoned and can be served for any mealtime during the day.

Vocabulary:

  • Cultural diversity: sự đa dạng văn hoá

  • Local speciality đặc sản địa phương

  • Mealtime: giờ ăn

Vocabulary:

  • totally different: hoàn toàn khác nhau

  • normal thing: điều bình thường

  • result of growing up: kết quả của việc lớn lên

2.5 What is a common meal in your country?

have it: ăn món đó

provides lots of energy: cung cấp nhiều năng lượng

afford: có khả năng chi trả 

2.6 What do you think of fast food?

I think fast food is convenient, for sure, but it's extremely unhealthy. I mean, it's okay to have fast food like once or twice a week but having it everyday can seriously damage your health! One of my friends, Daisy, ate fast food for months straight and she's obese now.

Vocabulary:

  • Convenient: tiện

  • Unhealthy: không lành mạnh

  • Fast food: thức ăn nhanh

  • Vegetables: rau củ

  • As diverse a diet as possible: chế độ ăn uống đa dạng nhất có thể

2.8 What's the difference between picnics and cooking at home?

Vocabulary:

  • Comfortable: thoải mái

  • ingredients and tools: nguyên liệu và công cụ

  • In contrast: trái lại

  • Tough: khó khăn

2.10 Did you learn how to cook when you were younger?

  • Experience: trải nghiệm

  • Special features: đặc điểm đặc biệt

  • Underlying meaning: ý nghĩa thực sự đằng sau

2.13 Have you ever tried foreign food?

  • Perfect combination: sự kết hợp hoàn hảo

2.14 What kinds of new foods have you tried recently?

Recently, I’ve been on a diet. Therefore, I usually look for healthy diets such as vegetables or low-calorie food. I was introduced to some vegetarian diets.

Vocabulary:

  • Diverse: đa dạng

  • Home-cooked meals: món ăn được làm tại nhà

  • Most popular: phổ biến nhất

2.16 Do you like food from other countries near Vietnam?

Certainly, I do. I have a special love for Chinese cuisine. Just like their culture, Chinese people offer a wide range of food. I’m interested in this food partly because its taste is pretty similar to Vietnamese food. We have some commons in the way we process and season the food. 

Vocabulary:

  • Cuisine: ẩm thực

  • Have some commons in: có nhiều điểm giống nhau trong việc gì

  • Process and season: chế biến và nêm nếm

2.17 Do you like to cook?

I consider myself an excellent cook. But unfortunately, I’m not into cooking. This is because I have a pretty hectic schedule, which means that I don’t have enough time to prepare a high-quality meal. So, most of the time, I just choose to eat out and have takeaway food at home. Only on important events such as birthdays, I will roll my sleeves up and get hands-on with something.

Vocabulary:

  • Nightmare: cơn ác mộng

  • Preparation: sự chuẩn bị

  • Hobby: sở thích

  • Beloved ones: những người yêu thương

2.19 What time do you usually eat dinner?

Vocabulary:

  • Flexible: linh động

  • Grab a bite to eat: ăn vội

  • Empty stomach: bao tử rỗng

2.20 Will you change your diet habits?

To be honest I think I should. As I said, I regularly have fast food for lunch and dinner, which is not good for my state of health. I consider spending more time preparing home-cooked dishes. They can not only ensure healthy nutrition but also help to keep my body in shape.

  • State of health: thể trạng

  • Home-cooked: nấu ăn tại nhà

  • Keep my body in shape: giữ thân hình cân đối

  • Have a sweet tooth: hảo ngọt

  • Beautifully decorated: được trang trí đẹp

  • Mouth-watering: ngon và hấp dẫn

2.22 What foods from your country do most foreign people enjoy?

I believe foreigners find Pho very fascinating. That’s a thing that still imprints in their mind after they pay a visit to Vietnam. I guess it is because Pho is well-seasoned with various kinds of spices. Also, the taste is neutral and friendly to most people.

Vocabulary:

  • Imprint in one’s mind: khắc sâu vào trong trí nhớ

  • Well-seasoned: nêm nếm đậm vị

  • Spice: gia vị

  • Neutral: trung tính

  • Homemade meal: các món ăn nhà làm

  • Quality time: thời gian chất lượng

2.24 Do you often eat dinner with your family or friend?

I try my best to have dinner with my family as much as possible. It’s always nice and fun to be surrounded by your beloved ones at dinner. However, I eat out with my friends sometimes. It is great to try on different kinds of food, I believe there are foods in restaurants that we have never seen at home.

Vocabulary:

  • Surrounded by: được vây quanh bởi

  • Eat out: ăn ở ngoài 

  • Try on: thử

2.25 Are there any fruits or vegetables you don’t like?

Yes, there’re a few. Durian is the first thing that pops up in my mind. It has such a strong smell that makes me dizzy even just being nearby, let alone eating it. Although it is seen as a king of fruit, it’s always on my black list.

Vocabulary:

  • Pops up: xuất hiện

  • Dizzy: choáng váng

  • Let alone eating it: huống hồ là ăn nó

2.26 Do you like chocolate as a child?

Vocabulary:

  • Bittersweet: vừa ngọt vừa đắng

  • Melt: tan chảy

  • Nuts: các loại hạt

  • Indispensable: không thể thiếu được

2.27 Do you think most people like chocolate? Why?

Vocabulary:

  • Health problems: các vấn đề sức khỏe

  • Diabetes: bệnh tiểu đường

  • Obesity: bệnh béo phì

  • Be allergic to: dị ứng với

2.28 What kinds of food are most popular in your country?

In Vietnam, we mainly have rice for mealtime. It is a complement to other main courses, namely pork, chicken or beef. And since food is often considered a big matter in most families, we usually prepare a full-course meal with some sort of side dishes and soups as well.

Vocabulary:

  • Complement: phần bổ sung

  • main course: món chính

  • Full-course meal: bữa ăn đầy đủ

  • Side dishes: món phụ

2.29 What kinds of foreign food are popular in your country?

From my observation, I think it’s definitely Japanese cuisine. There are so many Japanese restaurants in HCM city, selling varieties of dishes too, not just sushi. This is just my guess, but I think the reason for this is that, even though we use different spices and cooking methods, the philosophy behind Vietnamese cuisine and Japanese food is very much similar: both aims for an elemental balance and harmony between the ingredients, and both really utilize the healing properties of herbs and vegetables into cooking. Not to mention that most young people are exposed to Japanese culture from a very young age, through anime and mangas, so I think that also attributes to why Vietnamese people enjoy Japanese food so much.

Vocabulary:

  • Observation: sự quan sát

  • Spices: gia vị

  • Cooking methods: phương pháp nấu ăn

  • Philosophy: triết lý

  • Elemental balance and harmony: sự cân bằng và hài hoà giữa các nguyên tốt

  • Healing properties: đặc tính chữa lành

  • Herbs: thảo mộc

2.30 What are the differences between the way young and old people think about new food?

I think one major difference is in how eager we are to try them. For instance, the first week when Starbucks first opened in HCM city, thousands of people lined up to try it, and there were mostly young people and not many old people there. I think this is because in the age of social media, young people always seem to have this urge to be the first one among their friends to try new things and post it on Facebook or Instagram and impress their following. Meanwhile, with older people, they’d be less bothered by it, therefore they would mostly wait for the hype to die down and try later or even not try it at all.

Vocabulary:

  • Eager: háo hức

  • Lined up: xếp hàng

  • Impress: gây ấn tượng

  • Bothered: phiền lòng

  • Hype: cơn sốt

  • Die down: lặng đi dần
