Đáp án

Hi, everyone. I'm back home after another wonderful trip. and I want to tell you about this eco-resort that I stayed at.

I visited a town in the north of Vietnam called Sa Pa and stayed at Cloud Ecolodge. I had a room on top of a hill that had breathtaking views of the mountains and valleys. I chose this resort because it really does a great job of supporting the three main elements of ecotourism: protecting the environment, promoting local culture and traditions, and helping to create jobs and supporting the local economy.

First of all, Cloud Ecolodge is really eco-friendly, and it is fully carbon neutral. They keep electricity use to a minimum and there are no televisions or Wi-Fi in the rooms. Also, though there are great swimming pools and a spa where you can relax, all are powered by solar energy.

Next, they offer some excellent eco-friendly activities. They offer tours around the local village markets, and hiking and cycling tours around the area where you can learn about the local culture and see some beautiful traditional homes.

Finally, the resort hires employees entirely from the local area. The people they hire often don't have much education, but they're given hospitality and language training to improve their skills. The resort also has a really eco-friendly restaurant. They get most of their food from local markets and farms, so it’s really fresh, and all the food waste is sent to local forms to use as animal feed.

Overall, I loved my time there, and I think it’s the best resort I've reviewed so far. Let me know about which eco-resorts you've stayed at in the comments below. Maybe I could review those next.

Until next time.

b. What possible additional details or examples could you give for the points below? Write at least one sentence for each point. Remember to use descriptive language and strong adjectives. Bạn có thể đưa ra những chi tiết hoặc ví dụ bổ sung nào cho các điểm dưới đây? Viết ít nhất một câu cho mỗi điểm. Hãy nhớ sử dụng ngôn ngữ mô tả và tính từ mạnh mẽ.

Đáp án

2. The scenery is so beautiful. Towering mountains and lush valleys stretch as far as the eye can see, offering guests breathtaking vistas at every turn.

3. The buildings are very eco-friendly. Utilizing sustainable materials and energy-efficient features, such as solar panels and natural ventilation systems, they seamlessly blend with the surrounding environment while minimizing their carbon footprint.

4. The restaurant is great for the environment. With a farm-to-table approach, they source ingredients locally, reducing food miles and supporting the community.

5. They offer fascinating tours around local villages. Led by knowledgeable guides, these excursions provide guests with firsthand experiences of traditional customs, artisanal crafts, and authentic cuisine, fostering a deeper appreciation for the region's cultural heritage and natural beauty.

If you're looking for a relaxing getaway, I highly recommend the Blue Ocean Eco-Resort — a peaceful place where nature and comfort come together perfectly.

Located right by a beautiful beach, the resort offers stunning sea views and eco-friendly rooms designed with natural materials. What I love most is the calm atmosphere. You can swim in the infinity pool, do morning yoga, or simply relax under the palm trees with a good book. There are also activities like kayaking and snorkeling for the more adventurous guests.

One of the best things about the resort is the food. They serve fresh, organic meals, including delicious vegetarian options. The staff are friendly and always ready to help, making you feel at home from the moment you arrive.

The only downside is that it can get a bit crowded during holiday seasons, and prices are higher at those times. However, if you book early or travel off-season, it’s definitely worth it.

Overall, Blue Ocean Eco-Resort is a great choice for anyone who wants to enjoy nature in comfort while supporting sustainable tourism.
