If I\u2019m not mistaken, it took place about 6 months ago. At the time, she was dating a guy, and we sometimes hung out together. At first, I had no trouble going out with them. However, after a few times, I decided not to join them anymore because they mostly talked to each other wherever we were together, making me feel like a third wheel. On top of that, even when he wasn\u2019t with us, she still spent most of the time talking about him, which was so annoying. One time, I decided to be honest and tell her I didn\u2019t want to hear about their love story details anymore, and she immediately assumed that I was jealous. Needless to say, I was so mad that I stormed out of the place right away. For a month straight, I didn&#8217;t talk to her, answer her phone calls, or reply to her messages. When we met, I gave her the cold shoulder and acted like she didn\u2019t even exist. Things kept going like that until one day, she sent me a long text, telling me that she was truly story for what she had said. She admitted that she was out of line and didn\u2019t put herself in my shoes. She didn\u2019t want to lose our friendship and hoped that we could be best friends again. Moved by her sincere act, I accepted her apology and forgave her. That was the first time we hadn\u2019t talked to each other for that long, but on the bright side, it helped us understand each other better and strengthened our friendship. Occasionally, we still joke about that time to remind us of an interesting period in our lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">T\u1eeb v\u1ef1ng ghi \u0111i\u1ec3m:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A third wheel (n): Ng\u01b0\u1eddi th\u1eeba\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assume (v): Cho r\u1eb1ng, gi\u1ea3 \u0111\u1ecbnh<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storm out of (idiom): \u0110\u00f9ng \u0111\u00f9ng b\u1ecf \u0111i\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give someone a cold shoulder (v): \u0110\u1ed1i x\u1eed l\u1ea1nh nh\u1ea1t, c\u1ed1 t\u00ecnh l\u1edd ai \u0111\u00f3 \u0111i.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Out of line (idiom): Qu\u00e1 \u0111\u00e1ng, v\u01b0\u1ee3t qu\u00e1 gi\u1edbi h\u1ea1n c\u01b0 x\u1eed cho ph\u00e9p.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Put yourself in someone\u2019s shoes (idiom): \u0110\u1eb7t m\u00ecnh v\u00e0o ho\u00e0n c\u1ea3nh c\u1ee7a ng\u01b0\u1eddi kh\u00e1c.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Move (v): L\u00e0m c\u1ea3m \u0111\u1ed9ng, g\u00e2y x\u00fac \u0111\u1ed9ng m\u1ea1nh.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"IV_Bai_mau_describe_a_time_when_someone_apologized_to_you_%E2%80%93_Speaking_Part_3\"><\/span><b>IV.

I recall a time when my university group leader apologized sincerely for a delay he caused. Instead of losing face, his honesty and accountability actually strengthened our team&#8217;s trust in him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Question 2. Do you people in your country like to say sorry?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In my country, the way people apologize often depends on the severity of the situation. For minor inconveniences like being late, a verbal &#8216;sorry&#8217; is quite common. However, for more serious matters, many prefer indirect gestures over a direct apology to &#8216;save face.&#8217; Instead of saying the words, they might offer a small gift or treat you to a meal as a way of making amends. For instance, my neighbor once played loud music all night, and instead of a formal apology, he brought over some snacks the next day as a peace offering. So, while the sentiment is always there, it\u2019s often expressed through actions rather than words.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Question 3. You think people should apologize for anything wrong they do?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Absolutely. I firmly believe that an apology is essential whenever our actions adversely affect others, regardless of the scale. Even minor mistakes deserve acknowledgment as it fosters mutual respect. However, the key is sincerity. A verbal apology carries little weight if it isn\u2019t backed by a genuine effort to change. For instance, if someone is chronically late but keeps saying &#8216;sorry&#8217; without being punctual, that apology quickly loses its credibility. Therefore, while saying sorry is important, it should always be coupled with a commitment to make things right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Question 4. Why do some people refuse to say sorry to others?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In my view, the refusal to apologize often stems from a combination of pride and self-preservation. Many people equate an apology with weakness, fearing that admitting a fault will bruise their ego or cause them to lose face.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another factor is the fear of consequences; some worry that an apology could be used against them, damaging their reputation or undermining their authority. This is common in workplace hierarchies, where a manager might feel that saying sorry diminishes their status. Lastly, ingrained cultural or generational norms play a role. In some societies, older individuals may find it unnecessary to apologize to the younger generation due to strict hierarchical structures. Ultimately, it\u2019s usually a shield used to protect one&#8217;s image or position.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"V_Tham_gia_thi_thu_IELTS_4_ky_nang_tai_The_Catalyst_for_English\"><\/span><b>V.
