B,
My mother was very angry when she saw me wasting energy. I realized it wasn't
good after many times my mother said it. I decided not to let that happen again. I
will try to optimize all unnecessary devices. I would start with unplugging unused
devices such as computers, TVs... Replacing the light bulbs with LEB lights can
save me quite a bit of wasted electricity. The idea of keeping the fridge full with
ice bottles is pretty cool, too. I've just discovered that using a shower is less of a
waste of water than a bath. I will do them. Would you like to try it with me? That
would be very interesting.
Do you have any other ways to save energy? Hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Kim,
Thanks for your letter. When you left France and moved to Scotland, I felt very sad
and missed you. I feel lonely without you by my side like before. At school, I have
been doing very well in main subjects such as Math, Literature, and Foreign
Languages. In particular, I have been learning English very well. Besides, I also
have been studying natural sciences and social sciences.
When I'm at home, I also help my parents look after my younger brother. I help
with the housework when my parents are away. I also spend a lot of time self-
studying at home. I also often think of you. I look forward to your calls and letters
to me. Remember to contact me often. I will definitely visit you next summer.
Yours sincerely,
Chantal

B,
Tet is the day I look forward to the most in the year.It is celebrated on
different days for each country. In Vietnam, it is celebrated on the 1st day of the
lunar calendar. It's the day I want to celebrate the most and it's also the first day of
the new year according to the lunar calendar. On New Year's Day, there are
traditional cakes that everyone definitely eats which are "chung" and "tet" cakes.
There are also jams, candies and soft drinks.... On New Year's Day, the children
will be given money by adults in red envelopes symbolizing luck and wishes.
Adults will hear the children's good wishes. People who know each other will go to
each person's house to wish New Year, eat together and talk to each other. That
brings people closer together. People often go to the temple to pray for good luck
for the whole year. On New Year's Day, I usually wear new clothes or put on a red
ao dai to celebrate Tet or go to pagodas with my family.

On November 7 at Red Square in Moscow, Russia, a solemn military parade was
held to recreate the legendary military parade in 1941. It was a military parade 78
years ago that is considered to have been celebrated. Contributed to change the
history of Russia, because from Red Square, more than 28,000 soldiers of the Red
Army of the Soviet Union went straight to the front, fighting heroically in the
battle to defend Moscow.
In fact, the planned parade on November 7, 1941 made many people nervous. They
don't believe it
But the final parade went on, starting at 8 a.m. In front of the Red Army and the
guerrillas, Joseph Stalin personally delivered a speech that was described by
historical documents as "inspirational". The leader emphasized, in 1918.
