    4.The idea of having a single career is becoming an old fashioned one. The
    new fashion will be to have several careers or ways of earning money and
    further education will be something that continues throughout life.



    People in general, the younger generation espescially, are always wondering what the best way to make their career successful is. Someone say: “Master one career is better than having many career”, the idea of having career has existed in the minds of many people very long time. However, witness the success and achievements of the richest people, we can easily know where the trend goes. The new fashion will be to have several careers or ways of earning money and further education will be something throughout the life.

    The first, it is fairly true that taking up a new job open a new change which is a bit stranger but amazing to the explorer. Once the career you have buitl is firm, getting to know another major you like is extremely encouraged. The new major may be rather similar to the former one or very diffirent. However, it brings the new comer more knowledge as well as further education.
    Futhermore, the more intelligent and cleverer one can gain remarkable achievements from several careers. To them, one career is not enough. In the world, there are plenty of tradesmen who sell cars, manage hotels, supermarket... and some businessmen who managers of technology companies and oil industries at the same time. The knowledge from one career is helpful to another, though they are not in the same major. Hence, the one who manages a few careers get more and more practical knowledge, and does not lose anything.

    In conclusion, the trend of mastering plenty of careers is a good way for the development of the world. People are more and more well-educated and active in studying, the pace of growing in society is increasing.

    Em Nga- E 44.



    Currently, there are many world music genres. Music became a part of life, it meets the interests of each person. So, have you ever wondered: "Why do we need music and musical tra***ions of each country and international music is more important than which one? "

    First, we will together answer the question: "Why do we need music?" First of all, you let me answer the following questions : “ When do you listen to music ? “ As sad, as fun, free time, tired, etc. “ And where do you usually listen to music?” At home, at school, at work, etc wherever you can, right? According to several studies, at least two ways to tune lyrics go to the heart to hear: The effect is a charismatic, harmony, into the human subconscious. When entering a room with music, then suddenly worried as much stop and harmony with the body like the music, the whole body, such as jumping to the rhythm road, according to oral murky lyrics. Ad***ion, we do not divert attention to situations or feelings of pain, not fun, no lust. If a certain frequency band, we can increase your ability to learn, relax your body, helps sleep. With benefits , music is essential in the lives of each of us.

    Next, we will together answer the question "Tra***ional music of each country and international music, what is more important?" . In my opinion, tra***ional music is the foundation of international music and equal position in the music industry today. They have a mutual relationship. International music has the advantages such as easy listening, easy feeling and extremely rich. Also, tra***ional music is simple but profound, is the highlight of each country. In Vietnam, these musicians wrote songs based on words or tunes of folk songs. That is a great combination. So, we try to promote both of them.

    In summary, we can say “ We love music” . Background music will be more abundant and more diverse.
