Flu spreads through viruses. You get them when you breathe in little drops that spray from an
infected person when they sneeze, cough, or even laugh. You can also catch flu if the drops get on
your hands and you touch your mouth or nose. Flu viruses are very good at entering a body. They
have lots of spikes. With these spikes they stick to cells and travel through the body.

temperature. When body temperature is higher, the virus cannot grow so easily.

People pollute the environment by throwing litter or garbage all over the places every day.
They also dump empty bottles or cans into the rivers, lakes and seas, making the water unclean.
They also cut a lot of trees to get wood pulp for making paper. To protect the environment,
everyone should classify and put the garbage in a certain bag for making compost and they should
recycle waste paper to avoid cutting a lot of trees. We can protect our environment by doing like
that. We also should plant more and more green trees because trees help to hold the soil, prevent us
from floods and give us fresh air and shade in summer.

Learning about and practicing the three R's: Reduce, reuse, and recycle! Practicing
all three of these activities every day is not only important for a healthy environment, but it
can also be fun too. So let's take a minute right now to learn more about waste and waste
management, so we can become a key player in making our world a safe and healthy place.
In order to protect our environment we are taught to reuse, and recycle things in daily lives.
For example, we can use some plastic bottles and bags several times and then send them to the
factory, or we can use glass bottles or paper bags instead of plastic ones. In addition, we reduce
buying overpackaged products such as socks, frozen food …Another suggestion for children to
protect the environment is that they can divide garbage into different groups e.g. metal, vegetable
matter, paper, fabric or glass so that it can be reused or recycled economically.
A. Choose TRUE or FALSE
1.To protect the environment, we don’t need to study about recycling _ _FALSE__
2.Plastic bottles should be used only one time then throw them away __ FALSE__
3.Using glass bottles or paper bags is better than plastic ones ___TRUE__
4.Dividing garbage into different groups so as to be recycled economically _TRUE

A.reduce B. reuse C. recycle D. Practicing
A. we can use some plastic bottles and bags several times
B. we can use paper bags instead of plastic ones
C. we reduce buying overpackaged products
D. We protect our environment by practical works
There are three important steps for recycling to be successful:
First, the items to be recycled must be collected. Many communities require residents to
recycle and collect the materials using large bins or cans. The recyclables are picked up regularly,
just like the other trash and waste products.
Second, the recyclables must be sorted into the different materials. The most common
materials include paper, plastic, glass, and aluminum, which must be separated from each other.
Third, the recycled items must be processed at a recycling plant. Since there are different
materials that need to be recycled, each has its own method of turning the old into the renewed.
Task 1: Decide whether the statements are TRUE or FALSE
1.You need to take more 2 steps to recycle successfully. TRUE
2.In some places, people have to use large plastic bags to collect things and recycle. FALSE

3.Things that can be recycled must be put in the same place. FALSE

5.The word “sorted” in line 5 means:
A. destroyed B. changed C. cut D. categorized
A. How to succeed in recycling. B. Recycling is important.
C. Everything is recycled in the same way. D. All are incorrect.
There are often containers in car parks outside supermarkets for people to put bottles in;
clear, green and brown bottles are separated. Also, newspapers and magazines can be
recycled as well as cans made of aluminum. One of the problems of this is that most people
don’t want to take their rubbish there. To overcome this, some local councils also provide
special containers, often called ‘recycling bins’, for people to collect glass and paper in.
They put these outside their houses at the same time as their rubbish, and they are collected
and recycled.

Every year on 5th November people in Britain celebrate Bonfire Night. They light big bonfires in
their gardens and in parks and organize firework displays. People sometimes cook potatoes in the
fire and drink soup while they watch the fireworks. Traditionally, people make a model of a man,
called a “guy”, with old clothes and newspaper, and burns him on the fire. This is because on 5 th
November 1605, a man called Guy Fawkes tried to blow up King James I and his government in
44
London. Guy Fawkes wanted to kill the king because the king was a Protestant and Guy Fawkes
wanted a Catholic king. Fawkes wasn’t successful, and the first Bonfire Night took place in 1606,
a year later. Originally, Bonfire Night was an occasion on which people celebrated the fact that
Guy Fawkes didn’t kill the king. Nowadays, it is just a festival where family and friends come
together to watch a firework display.

There are three main kinds of pollution – air pollution, water pollution, and noise pollution. Air,
which is the most important element of our environment for our survival, can be polluted in many
ways. Smoke in the air from mills, factories, and industry contains carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
and methane, which are all poisonous gases. This leads to health problems like asthma and lung
diseases, and the thinning of the ozone layer, which protects us from harmful UV rays. China, the
USA, Russia, India, Mexico, and Japan are the world leaders in air pollution emissions. Water is also
polluted by the discharge of commercial and industrial waste into surface water. Sewage in drinking
water is another cause of water pollution as it contains germs and viruses. The noise of vehicles, mills
and factories can be really unbearable. This kind of constant sound also causes headaches, tension,
mental stress, and migraines. People living next to a building site where there is too much noise can
become sick, as they cannot sleep or relax. This is called noise pollution.

Vu Lan Festival
Vu Lan Festival annually takes place on 15th day of the seventh lunar month. It is also called
“Xa toi vong nhan” festival because this is the day for the death’s souls. Many people believe that
on that day, when the gate of the hell opens, souls of the dead can come back to their home and
gather with their family. Moreover, Vietnamese people consider that it is also the occasion for
family gatherings as well as expressing love and gratitude to ancestors and parents. Therefore, Vu
Lan Festival is known as Mother’s Day in Vietnam.
First, in the morning of that day, a lavish tray with various delicious dishes set on the altar, and
the householder will burn incense and invite ancestor to come back home and celebrate the festival
with family. Then, at night the Vietnamese hold a ceremony of releasing lighted lanterns on the
river because Vietnamese people believe by doing that, their wishes for parents will come true.
