Hi Miss, today I’m gonna talk about the historical building where I live, it’s one of the typical
landmarks of Ho Chi Minh City called Notre Dame Cathedral. This church was established in 1877 and
The church is located in District 1, in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City. It’s surrounded by other
important structures such as the Independence Palace on the right, the Ho Chi Minh city Post Office on
the left and behind is the shopping area. It takes a 5 minutes to walk from here.
Externally, Saigon Notre-Dame Cathedral is shaped like an ancient palace with meticulously
carved and delicate architectural lines and details. The highlight of the church architecture is the huge
stone columns, circular and triangular windows with intricate patterns. Despite going through many years
and violent upheavals, the building still stands tall in the middle of Saigon. Because of that, this church
has played an important role in creating a distinct ancient beauty for Ho Chi Minh City.
For me, I like it a lot because it's a place I often go to take pictures and eat with my friends.
Although it looks very old as it has been around for a long time it needs to be maintained to last longer. I
encourage you to visit this church even once and you will be overwhelmed by its ancient beauty.

- It is better to keep old buildings if it is possible to refurbish them and if they are structurally
sound. This is because old buildings display the original architecture of the city and replacing
them with modern buildings takes away from the charm of the place.

The one I’d like to tell you about is a book which I read. This book belongs to the genre of the
short stories, the book is called The Girl From Yesterday by author Nguyen Nhat Anh.
In addition, an interesting thing about this book is that it was compiled and published by Moscow
State University in 2012, officially becoming a textbook for teaching Vietnamese at universities in the
Russian Federation. This book was also turned into a movie in 2017. I watch this movie many times due
to the genre I like as well as I can read this a book in 3 days if I have free time.
When I was 8 years old, I went to the bookstore with my parents to buy a suitable book for me
but there was no book that I like. However, there was one those books that caught my eye, and that was
this book and I decided to but it. Because, first, the cover of the book is simple and beautiful, secondly, I
like the genre of short stories and thirdly, Nguyen Nhat Anh is my favorite author.
So in conclusion, because I like this book, I keep it very carefully and will take it out and read it

Hi Miss, today I’m gonna talk about a famous person who I care, he is a writer Nguyễn Ngọc Ký.
He was born in 1947, but when he was 4 years old, he became paralyzed in both hands. But not because
of that he gave up, he tried to overcome his fate, train his feet to be able to write and become an elite
teacher, setting a Vietnamese record "The first Vietnamese writer to write by foot".
When I was in elementary school, my school invited him back and that was the first time I saw
him with my own eyes. I just knew and tried to imagine him through his book when I finally got to meet
him. He sat down on the school grounds and shared his initial difficulties when he learned to write with
his feet and advised us to always try our best to get good results. After that meeting, I had the teacher sign
He is not only a writer but also a teacher who has strong faith and overcomes his own adversity,

interested and enjoyed reading his book, which is the book I Go to School, which he signed for me. I

Hi Miss, today I’m gonna talk about a memory that I have forgot, that is, I forgot my brother’s
birthday.
I don't remember exactly what year it was but it must have been about 2 years ago, at that time I
was preparing for the biggest competition of my life which was the national exam. That day, everything
went as usual, I was studying because the exam day was coming, so I don't remember that there was a
party. Suddenly, my younger brother asked me what you gave him this year, I answered what gift today is
not your birthday. he shut up and walked out of my room, it took me by surprise and I closed the door and
continued studying.
That afternoon, when I was studying in my room, I heard the music was so loud that I couldn't
study, I just opened the door to check, then I found out that it was my brother's birthday. I was surprised
because I misremembered his birthday, I thought I would celebrate his birthday after I finished the exam.
He was mad at me, didn't talk to me that day, I felt guilty and disappointed that I couldn't
remember my brother's birthday. Although I still went to buy gifts even though it was late, when I gave
them, she smiled at me and said thank you. That was the day I remember the most, and after that, every
important day I took notes on my phone, I found this to be the most effective.

- I think memorizing through pictures will help us remember longer. Because the brain can't
remember complex words for long, images instead help the brain remember more easily and
store longer.
- In my opinion, each person has a different brain. Some people remember it for a long time
and some people can't remember it for a long time, but we can also use tools and techniques
- I don’t think that technology helps people remember things better. In fact, relying on
technology means we don’t need to remember very much. We can just set reminders on our
smartphones for everything and get an alert when it’s time to do it.

Describe a sleep
Hi Miss, today I’m gonna talk about a sleep, a health-related problem. If you want good health,
Wherever you work you can sleep, for example when you work for an office you can sleep at
your desk, or you can also sleep on the desk when you go to school , even while you lie on the sofa at
home watching TV you can sleep and so on. That shows that no matter where you are, as long as you
As I said above, those places where you can sleep is because you are too exhausted from work
and you need rest so you need to sleep. Another reason is that while studying, that subject makes you not
interested, you can sleep if you are bored. Even if you don't get enough sleep, a place with cool,
Not getting enough sleep can make you feel tired, unable to think and focus on work. From there,
the quality of studying and working decreases, the reason may be that you are too busy because of too
much work that you need to complete according to the deadline. On the other hand, young people spend
too much time playing games, texting, surfing social networks like Tiktok, Facebook. Unnecessary things
should be done later, taking time to get enough sleep, lack of sleep is also very dangerous when you
drive.
In short, if you get enough sleep, you will have good health from which you will do more things

1. What are some advantages of getting enough sleep?
- Getting enough sleep plays an important role in shaping people’s health. It helps us recharge
our energy after an exhausting day, and avoids being overloaded. For example, an 8-hour
sleep is believed to help people work efficiently and boost their productivity. If people don’t
get enough sleep, they can find it difficult to concentrate on their tasks.
2. How do people in your country keep track of their sleep?
- They can also use sleep monitoring devices to review their health status. These apps will
suggest ways to make their sleep the best, like listening to ocean waves or raindrops. This can
also help them sleep better
3. How do you avoid falling asleep when you are at a meeting?
- The most important thing is that before the meeting, you need to go to bed early to wake up
early to prepare thoroughly for the meeting. On the other hand, coffee can also make people
more alert and focused during meetings. But for me, since I can't drink coffee, I go to bed
early to give my body a good condition before the meeting.
