Tet is a national and family festival. It is an occasion for every Vietnamese to have a good time while thinking about the last year and the next year. At Tet, spring fairs are organized, streets and public buildings are brightly decorated and almost all shops are crowded with people shopping for Tet. At home, every is tidied, special food is cooked,offerings of food, fresh water, flowers and betel are made on the family altar with burning joss- sticks scenting the air. First-footing is made when the lucky visitor comes and children are given lucky money wrapped in a red tiny envelope. Tet is also a time for peace and love. During Tet, children often behave well and friends, relatives and neighbors give each other best wishes for the new year

Hi!

It was great to hear your news! You’re so lucky to win that amount of money. I think you should use it wisely. If I were you, I would divide the money into four parts. I would give my parents the first part, so they can buy something they want. The second part would be sent to the charity. I could use the third part to buy some books or clothes. However, you must remember that you are a student and you will need money for lots of things in the future. Therefore, I would save the last part for rainy days.

However, the decision is up to you. I think you will know how to spend it wisely.

All the best,

Linh.

Chào!

Thật vui khi biết tin của bạn! Bạn thật may mắn khi trúng được số tiền đó. Tôi nghĩ bạn nên sử dụng nó một cách khôn ngoan. Nếu tôi là bạn, tôi sẽ chia số tiền thành bốn phần. Tôi sẽ cho cha mẹ phần đầu tiên, để họ có thể mua cái gì đó họ muốn. Phần thứ hai sẽ được gửi đến quỹ từ thiện. Tôi có thể dùng phần thứ ba để mua sách hoặc quần áo. Tuy nhiên, bạn phải nhớ rằng bạn đang là sinh viên và bạn sẽ cần tiền cho rất nhiều thứ trong tương lai. Do đó, tôi sẽ để dành phần cuối cùng phòng cho những ngày túng thiếu.

Tuy nhiên, quyết định là ở bạn. Tôi nghĩ bạn sẽ biết cách chi tiêu một cách khôn ngoan.

Chúc bạn tất cả những gì tốt nhất,

Linh.

Dear Helen,

How are you? Every year in Vietnam in the first week of the third lunar month, the festival is March 3, tourists from all over the world eagerly make pilgrimages to Phu Day Festival, the place to worship Holy Mother Lieu Hanh, the sacred mother of the Vietnamese nation.

At the same time, Lady Chua Lieu Hanh was also worshiped at many other festivals in Vietnam, but the Phu Day festival was among the most solemn, with the participation of a large number of people.

Dear Mai,

I haven't talked to you for a long time since your family moved to Sai Gon. How are you doing now? What do you do on the weekend?

Today I’m going to share with you about my leisure activities in my spare time.

I like spending my free time with friends. On the weekend, I often go to the cinema , then eat something good with my best friends. I greatly love chatting with them.

I also enjoy going travelling with my family. Last year we went to Da Nang, a beautiful city with many bridges. In addition, having dinner with my family is one of my favourite activities each day.

I really like to read books, and one of my top novels is the series of Harry Potter. Do you know it?

I guess that’s all about me now. When you have free time, write me and tell me about you and your hobbies.

I’m looking forward to your reply.

Best, Minh.

Hi Tra,
How are you? Thank you for your wonderful gift. I think you got an enjoyable summer holiday. And I would like to tell you about my last summer holiday.
I spent my summer holiday with my family in Da Nang for 3 days. That was really great days for me. On the first day, we had a trip to Ba Na Hills. The atmosphere was very fresh, it made me feel good. We visited many places such as Fantasy Park, Debay Cellar, French Village, etc.
On the second day, we went to visit My Son Sanctuary and go swimming in the afternoon. Da Nang beach is very pure and the scene is really beautiful. So I took many nice pictures.
And on the last day, we just walked around the town, enjoy some delicious dishes of Da Nang such as bun Quang, banh trang thit heo, etc and bought some souvenirs. I have a great gift for you. I will send your gift and the beautiful pictures that I took for you.
I really had a great time with my family. Da Nang is a wonderful place and people in here are friendly. I think this is a place I shall never forget. So how is your summer vacation? Write to me and tell me about it.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes,
Trang
