TASK 1 (Process): Slow sand filter
Sample Answer
The provided diagram demonstrates how raw water is filtered by means of a man-made slow-sand filtration system.
Overall, the artificially created water filter, which operates on fundamental physical processes and the principle of consolidation by gravity, consists of three primary components: a break pressure chamber, the main filtration compartment utilizing natural materials for particle filtration, and the final filtration chamber where clean water is produced. It is also notable that there are only two types of naturally sourced materials: sand and gravel acting as filtering layers.
Initially, raw, unclean water from unspecified external sources is diverted into the break pressure chamber (the first point of filtration), where microscopic water particles are pumped and elevated to a higher altitude in preparation for being routed to the main chamber.
While in the main filtration compartment, the dirt particles and microscopic pollutants inherently present in the untreated water occupy the uppermost part of the middle chamber, immediately below which lies the thickest layer of sand, measuring from 60 to 90 centimetres in height. This sand layer is designed with the intention of filtering coarse-grained particles and sizeable contaminants, leaving the more fine-grained materials to be handled by the gravel right underneath, whose thickness amounts to 20 to 30 centimetres. As soon as the filth and contaminating particles penetrate through both these intended filtration layers, they are caught in the underdrains as consolidating particles.
Lastly, the finest water particles secured in the underdrains are channeled towards the final output chamber, where they eventually follow an output water pipe, yielding filtered, clean water ready for consumption and potentially other purposes.

Structure to copy:
Overall, the system consists of … and produces clean water at the end.
Ví dụ:
Overall, the artificially created water filter, which operates on fundamental physical processes, consists of three primary components and produces clean water.
➡️ Phần overview phải nêu được: có bao nhiêu giai đoạn + kết quả cuối cùng là gì.
💡 Tuyệt đối không mô tả chi tiết trong Overview.
3️. Body Paragraph 1 – The First Stage
Main idea: Raw water enters and is prepared for filtration.
(Nước thô đi vào và được chuẩn bị cho quá trình lọc.)
Initially, raw, unclean water from unspecified external sources is diverted into the break pressure chamber, where microscopic water particles are pumped and elevated to a higher altitude.
🔹 Cụm từ hay:
- diverted into = được chuyển hướng vào
- break pressure chamber = buồng giảm áp
- pumped and elevated = được bơm và nâng lên
➡️ Bước 1: Nêu nguồn nước và nơi đầu tiên nước đi vào.
➡️ Bước 2: Mô tả chức năng sơ bộ (giảm áp, nâng cao).
4️. Body Paragraph 2 – The Main Filtration Process
Main idea: Impurities are removed through sand and gravel layers.
(Tạp chất được loại bỏ qua các lớp cát và sỏi.)
While in the main filtration compartment, the dirt particles and microscopic pollutants inherently present in the untreated water occupy the uppermost part.
Below lies the thickest layer of sand (60–90 cm) designed with the intention of filtering coarse-grained particles and sizeable contaminants, followed by a gravel layer (20–30 cm) to capture finer materials.
🔹 Cụm từ ăn điểm:
- with the intention of filtering = với mục đích lọc
- coarse-grained particles / sizeable contaminants = hạt to / chất bẩn lớn
- fine-grained materials = hạt nhỏ hơn
- inherently present = vốn có trong

5️. Body Paragraph 3 – Final Output
Main idea: Clean water is collected and ready for use.
(Nước sạch được thu và sẵn sàng sử dụng.)
Lastly, the finest water particles secured in the underdrains are channeled towards the final output chamber, yielding filtered, clean water ready for consumption.
🔹 Cụm từ cần học:
- channeled towards = được dẫn đến
- yielding clean water = tạo ra nước sạch
- ready for consumption = sẵn sàng cho việc sử dụng
➡️ Kết bài Process phải mô tả kết quả cuối cùng, không thêm ý tưởng cá nhân.
