Read the passage and do the tasks below.

            Viet Nam is famous for many delicious kinds of food such as spring rolls, seafood, Pho and Che as well. Of all, I like Pho the most. Pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup, usually served with beef or chicken. The soup includes noodles made from rice and is often served with Vietnamese basil, mint leaves, lime, and bean sprouts that are added to the soup by the person who is dining.

            Vietnamese people love Pho and so do foreigners. I have a friend from England. Her name is Anna. She has come to Viet Nam for three years. Anna works as an English teacher in Ha Noi. She likes Pho so much that she eats Pho three times a day. Normally we eat Pho in a restaurant, but sometimes my mother cooks at home. I think Pho in a restaurant is more delicious than that at home because it has a special smell.
