Talk about your house
The house we are living in is situated in the suburb of HCM city, within thirty minutes’ drive off the central city. We have lived there for more than twenty years. This is a fairly large house surrounded with a luxuriant garden.My house consists of four bed-rooms, a living-room, a bathroom with a shower, a dinning-room, a kitchen and a toilet. It is air-conditioned and well-furnished. The living-room is decorated beautifully. Paintings by famous artists are hung on the walls. At night, the color neon lights increase the beauty and coziness of the room. There, on Sundays and holidays my father usually spends his time playing chess or drinking tea with his friends. My mother and my two sisters are diligent and hard-working women. They often keep the house clean and tidy.
On suffocating days of summer, we usually take meals in the garden. It is fairly cool and quiet here. We enjoy our meals amid the melodious twitters of birds. On stormy and rainy nights all whole family members gather in the living-room, watching television or telling each other about their daily activities.
I love my house very much because it is the place where I was born and have grown up in the education of my father and in the tender loving care of my mother. I have spent my whole childhood in the love and affection of my dear ones with so many sweet memories.
Talk about your school
There is a white three-storey building, surrounded by greenery, located at Simei Town Central. That is Simei Primary School. That is also the place where I have schooled for the last five years or so.My school uniform is white. The boys wear a white shirt and white shorts while the girls wear a white blouse and skirt. The uniform must always be worn with the school badge which bears our school motto “Nothing without labor”. It means that we must be willing to work to get our reward. We are also taught to be honest and polite all the time.
Most of the teachers in my school are just and kind. However, there are some teachers who show favoritism. As a result, the students who are favored by these teachers are very proud and like to bully the others. In general, however, we all treat one another like siblings and live in harmony.
I am sad that I will have to leave my school at the end of this year. It has given me knowledge, friends and happy moments. I will always remember my school and the fond memories it holds.
Talk about neighborhood
My neighbors are really good people. They watch out for each other and this makes where I live extra nice. If anyone has a problem with their car or even something in their house, a neighbor is usually there to help. One day, I couldn't start my car, and my neighbor asked what was wrong. I explained that my car wouldn’t start, and he got my car going again. This is just one of the many examples of how my neighbors are the best people I know.
Talk about your holiday
I went to Paris last August with my friend Lucy. We went by train. We stayed for five days in a small hotel in the city centre. The hotel was not cheap, but it was not expensive. Our room was OK -- it was old and dark, but very clean.
In the mornings we visited all the famous tourist sights and the most famous museums. The Louvre Museumwas my favourite!
We had a sandwich for lunch in a park. In the afternoon we walked around the city. We took a lot of photos! Three days we had crepes! They're delicious!
After a nap and a shower, in the evenings, we had dinner in small restaurants and then we went to pubs or discos, or for a walk. We visited interesting places and we met very interesting people! We also made some good friends.
We didn't buy any presents. Everything was very expensive. But we sent very beautiful postcards to our friends.
We had a lot of fun! It was a fantastic holiday!
That's all!
