IELTS TUTOR gợi ý bài tham khảo:

In recent years, an increasing number of individuals have turned to the cyberspace (không gian mạng - the virtual environment of the Internet) for medical consultation (tư vấn y tế - professional medical advice) instead of visiting a physician. This trend can be attributed to the exorbitant (quá cao - unreasonably high) cost of medical services, but its implications remain largely detrimental.

A primary reason why people opt for online medical advice is the prohibitive (cực kỳ cao - excessively expensive) expenses associated with professional healthcare. Many practitioners (bác sĩ hành nghệ - medical professionals) charge hefty (nặng nề - large and difficult to afford) consultation fees and often prescribe superfluous (dư thừa - unnecessary) medical tests to maximize profits. As a result, patients, particularly those from economically disadvantaged (bất lợi về tài chính - lacking financial resources) backgrounds, find it more practical to seek health-related information on the Internet. Given the vast accessibility of symptom-checker (công cụ tra triệu chứng - online tool to analyze symptoms) websites and virtual self-diagnosis (tự chẩn đoán - diagnosing oneself without a professional), individuals often resort to online platforms instead of incurring exorbitant hospital expenses.

Despite the convenience, this phenomenon is largely detrimental (có hại - harmful) due to the unverified (chưa được xác minh - not confirmed as accurate) nature of online medical information. Unlike licensed physicians (bác sĩ có giấy phép - doctors certified to practice medicine), many online contributors (người đóng góp nội dung - individuals posting content) lack formal expertise, making their advice potentially misleading (gây hiểu nhầm - giving the wrong idea). A striking example is the infodemic (bê nhạn thông tin sai lệch - excessive misleading information) witnessed during the COVID-19 pandemic, where countless fallacious (sai lầm - based on incorrect reasoning) remedies circulated online, prompting individuals to self-medicate with harmful substances. Such misinformation can lead to severe health complications, exacerbating rather than alleviating medical conditions.>> Form đăng kí giải đề thi thật IELTS 4 kĩ năng kèm bài giải bộ đề 100 đề PART 2 IELTS SPEAKING quý đang thi (update hàng tuần) từ IELTS TUTOR
