Answer 1

• Today, I am going to share with you a person I know who {dresses well/speaks a second (foreign) language well/ travels a lot by plane/}. That person is my friend/boss/…..
• As a typical saleswoman for a multinational company, {my friend/my boss} has to meet many people from all over the world. That’s why she speaks English as fluently as Vietnamese. In addition, she also dresses well because appearance is very important in the sales market.
• She is tall and thin, thus she always chooses to wear blouses [blauz] with pencil skirts because such smart clothes not only complement [‘kɔmplimənt] her figure, but also give her a formal look suitable for business meetings. Every time she appears in public, she draws everyone’s attention; people look at her with admiration [,ædmə’rei∫n]. I think that’s one of the reasons why she is such an effective salesperson.
• Due to the characteristics of her job, she has to {travel to Ho Chi Minh City/uses English} quite often because our company has a lot of customers {base in the south/ internationally}. As a result, {travelling by plane is the only choice. There are months when she has to go to HCM once a week to prepare for a client meeting or provide training to new employees/ Being competent [‘kɔmpitənt] in English helps her a lot in closing the deal with international clients, since nowadays English is considered to be the most common language in the business world. She speaks English so well that one of our clients complimented [‘kɔmplimənt] her on sounding exactly like a native speaker}.
