different people, (5) ....................., ideas, and places you mightnever encounter in real
life. Watching a variety of shows might give us a broader understanding of the world we
live in and expose us to things we might otherwise never come across in our own lives.
Exercise 4: Complete the following sentences with no more than three words.
Disadvantages of watching television
Sex, crime, and violence are frequently depicted on television and may have negative
effects on impressionable children (and adults!). Kids who see violent acts are more
likely to display aggressive or violent behavior and also to believe that the world is a
scary place and that something bad is going happen to them. Ongoing studies have
shown a lasting correlation between watching violence on television and aggression that
begins in childhood and continues into adulthood. Viewers sometimes imitate violent,
criminal, sexual, or other risky behavior they see on television... and end up in trouble, in
jail, or in a hospital as a result.
Watching too much television is not good for your health. Studies have shown that there
is a correlation between watching television and obesity. Excessive TV watching (more
than 3 hours a day) can also contribute to sleep difficulties, behavior problems, lower
grades, and other health issues.
Television makes us antisocial, taking the place of family and friends.
It’s a waste of time. Watching television fills the time a person might have spent doing
important, enriching things like interacting socially with other human beings, being
physically active, discovering the outdoors, reading, using one’s own imagination, or
accomplishing other things like working or doing homework or chores, or spending time
with enriching hobbies like art, music, etc.
Television might be addictive. For those who watch a lot, it’s very hard to quit, so it is
similar to a dependency like alcoholism or any another addiction. Recent studies have
found that up to 12% percent of TV-watchers feelunhappy about the amount of TV they
watch, consider themselves addicts yet feel incapable of stopping themselves.
1. Sex, crime, and violence may have ............................ on impressionablechildren.
2. Watching TV more than 3 hours per day can contribute to ............................
behavior problems, lower grades, and other health issues.
3. We become ............................ when we spend too much time on TV.
4. Spending time with .......................... like art or music is better than onlywatching TV.
5. Those who watch TV too much may become ............................

The male equivalent of the ao dai is called the ao gam, and is a brocade
tunic ordinarily worn only on special occasions, such as birthdays or
festivals. You are less likely to see the ao gam than the ao dai in a day-to-
day setting in Vietnam.
More well-known even than the ao dai, the non la is a style of
Vietnamese conical hat that has become symbolic not just of Vietnam
but of East Asia in general for many Westerners. The hat, which is
usually made from bamboo or straw, appears in Vietnamese art dating
from 2,500-3,000 years ago, and is considered part of modern
Vietnamese national costume.
From the early twentieth century onwards, most Vietnamese have worn
Western-style clothing in day-to-day life, while members of minority
ethnic groups in the north of country still commonly wear the traditional
dress of their own particular locality.

LUNAR NEW YEAR
Lunar New Year Festival often falls between late January and early February; it is among
the most important holidays in Vietnam. Officially, the festival includes the 1st, 2nd and
3rd day of January in Lunar Calendar; however, Vietnamese people often spend about
nearly a month to celebrate this special event.
Since Tet occupies an important role in Vietnamese’s religious beliefs, Vietnamese will
begin their preparations well in advance of the upcoming New Year. In an effort to get
rid of the bad luck of the old year, people will spend a few days cleaning their homes,
polishing every utensil, or even repaint and decorate the house with kumquat tree,
branches of peach blossom, and many other colorful flowers. The ancestral altar is
especially taken care of, with careful decoration of five kinds of fruits and votive papers,
along with many religious rituals. Everybody, especially children, buy new clothes and
shoes to wear on the first days of New Year. People also try to pay all their pending
debts and resolve all the arguments among colleagues, friends or members of family.
Vietnamese believe that the color of red and yellow will bring good fortune, which may
explain why these colors can be seen everywhere in Lunar New Year. People consider
what they do on the dawn of Tet will determine their fate for the whole year, hence
people always smile and behave as nice as they can in the hope for a better year.
Besides, gifts are exchanged between family members and friends and relatives, while
children receive lucky money kept in red envelope. No matter where Tet is celebrated, it
must be clarified from the beginning that Tet is not a day, but several days of
celebration.
