Past explorers have made vast contributions to our knowledge of the world today. They braved the oceans to discover the world and to bring their goods to other countries to trade.
Many explorers had to overcome their fear of the unknown to travel around the world on their sailing ships. Submitting themselves to unpredictable weather conditions, each explorer either traveled further than his predecessor or tried to find a different route to already discovered countries. For example, Vasco Da Gama, a Portuguese explorer, established a sea route from Europe to India. He had extended the sea route that Bartolomeu Dias had already done when he latter sailed around the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa.
More importantly, explorers first closed the gap between the east and the west by trading their local goods with foreign ones. India was known for its spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon while China was known for its silk. A part of the east was brought to the west when western gourmets developed a taste for eastern spices in their food. People in the east dressed in clothes that were previously only worn in the west. Without the explorers, many of us would still be living in our own enclave with little knowledge of the vast world and what other foreign countries have to offer us.

Tớ chuẩn bị làm bài nói Tiếng Anh. Đề Bài : What is the most important characteristic in a person? Các bạn đọc và tìm giúp mình có chỗ nào sai hay không phù hợp thì chỉ mình nha! Mình cám ơn các bạn rất nhiều.
We live in a world of peace without war. The Vietnamese people have gone through painful historical pages and have spent thousands of years developing. And if Vietnam wants to develop like other countries, there must be people who are genius. I have read a newspaper about people in Japan. Japan is one of the most developed countries. Because people there are economic and life characteristics. Japanese people are always afraid of backward against the world so they always exchange knowledge even when they are on the road they also hold books to learn. They are also very good: do not squeeze in line, do not steal. Therefore, if Vietnam wants to develop, then there must be people who have characteristics like Japanese people. And in my opinion people need these traits:
1. Patriotism:
- Patriotism is one of the most important characteristics in people. Because patriotism is a driving force behind our development goals.
2. Have virtue:
- virtue is important in people because it is applied to life and economy. Being an honest person, knowing how to help others, giving in to the economy is not easy.
3. Benefit:
- Do people need to be grateful, kind. If you are honest, people around you will respect you.
4. Honestly:
- The lie is something that is being condemned in today's society. Lies in work and in life will cause others to lose faith in you. So honesty is always good quality. Because honesty will help you succeed and develop the virtues of the Vietnamese people.
5. Humble:
At work, when a project succeeds we will be excited. Success not only brings joy to us but also motivates us to work harder. But not because of that success, I am subjective, always bragging. Therefore, human beings need to have humility, always for their success must be lower than others. Typically, President Ho Chi Minh always has a humble heart that everyone admire.
6. Powerful:
- In addition to success, there is a failure in life. An Australian president said: "Failure is the opportunity to start the success again." Yes, failure helps us to grow. Not because of a failure that you give up. You must always have a strong, energetic spirit.
7. Unity:
- Finally is unity. Unity has been a tradition since the war. Thanks to that unity, the Vietnamese have expelled the enemy, unified the country. Today, that unity is also applied in economics. If the Vietnamese people are united together, they can create a new phenomenon that will bring Vietnam to the top of the world. And no one else is the Vietnamese U23 football team, which has made 90 million Vietnamese people proud of their unity and love of the country.
