Topic 1: I’ve just seen a brilliant programe about dolphins on television. Which programes have you
enjoyed recently? How much televison do you watch?
Dear John
I’m very happy when I received your letter. I know you’ve just seen a brilliant programne about dolphins on
television. I’m writing this letter to tell you about programes i have enjoyed recently.
Among many programs and channels available on TV these days such as the current news programs, sport
programs, entertaining programs, educational programs and movie programs, etc., I like the program “the
World of Animals” most. This program is usually shown on DISCOVERY CHANNEL every day at 9
o’clock in the evening on CHANNEL 40 if you have payment television povided by VTV Cab. It’s also
available on satellite digital televison like K+. It often lasts about 45 minutes. In this program, stories of the
life of many animals in the world are told in a very lively way. For example, people can watch films about
monkeys, snakes, tigers, insects, birds, sea turtles, sharks,the world under water and even the penguins and
the polar bears in the far North & Sound Poles..etc. It’s really interesting and fascinating. I absolutely
admire the filmmakers, cameramen and their co-workers about what they did to bring us lively , dangerous
and spectacular scenes of wildlife. Sometimes, I have to utter : “ Oh My God “ , “ How coud they film that ?
“ It’s unbelieveble when they filmed a hungry big white shark chasing prey or a King cobra snake – the
world's longest venomous snake opening his mount to bit and spray venom to cameraman. That’s trully
dangerous situation. I think Vietnamese filmmakers can’t ever do the same thing as they do. While watching
these films, I find the everyday life activities and habits of these animals very interesting and full mysteries.
In addition, I also learn that it is very important to protect these animals and their living environments
because they are part of our valuable natural world. Watching this program makes me very well informed
and relaxed after a day of work. I don’t spend much time watching tv every day . I just want to watch
Discovery Channel and News to get information about life, economic, politics…etc. Another time I spend
surfing web, reading books or going out with my friends. It’s much better than spend a lot of time watching
Tv.
That’s all for now. I hope to see you soon

Topic 2: My daily life is busy and has a lot of fun. What about you? Please describle your weekday.
How do you deal with your work during the day? What are your hobbies after working? Do you enjoy

Dear John
I’m very happy when I received your letter. I’m writing this letter to tell you about my daily life. It seems
my life is always very full of activities and obligations so I never have much time for myself. During the
week I’m very busy. On weekdays, I usually have to get up at half past six even though I would really prefer
to sleep much later. After I get up I perform my morning routine of washing my face, brushing my teeth....I
usually have breakfast at quarter to seven in the morning. After getting dressed, I drive to my office and my
workday starts at eight o'clock with plenty of work to deal with. Sometimes, it causes my stress but I love
my job as a civil engineer. I have lunch at 12 o’clock, after that I take a nap in a hour to refresh my mind. I
continue working until 5pm. I get home at 6 o’clock and playing football is my favourite sport after work. It
helps me healthy and keep fit. I have dinner with my parent at 8 o’clock . I like watching tv or reading book
after dinner. If I go out to meet my friends or have dinner…etc, I will come home by 11 p.m because my
parent don’t allow me to come home late. Checking mail or comments on my facebook is the last thing I do
before going to bed. I love my life and really enjoy it!

Topic 3: I’ve just joined a film club. I’ve already seen some fantastic films. What kind of films do you
like watching?
Dear John
I’m very happy when I received your letter. I know you have just joined a film club! That’s great. I’m
writing this letter to tell you about my favourite kind of film I like watching.
I’m very interested in Comedy films. As you know, There are many forms of expression inside of
everybody; however the most common form is laughter. The sound of laughter can be heard all around the
worlds every second, it helps us relieve stress and makes us feel better about ourselves. Comedy films play
such an important role in helping us laugh. There are many forms of films out there today. In spite of the
recent incline in action and horror films today, comedy films has always been my number one
choice because it gives people an opportunity to look at humor in life, it usually has a pointless, useless
moral that we can relate to, and it allows you to look at things in a new light and possibly expand your
horizon to become a more optimistic person. All comedies always have one essential ingredient to make it a
great comedy, humor. All comedies give people an opportunity to look at humor in life and laugh at it.
Comedies usually show a hilarious scene for people to enjoy and laugh at. Many scenes which has a outburst
of crazy and ridiculous moments will not usually happen in our daily life, but its fun to enjoy. I often watch
comedies when I get upset, have streess because, laughing Giúp me relax và bring balance back to me. My
favourite actors and actress are Xuan Hinh, Hoai Linh Cam Van, Van Dung …etc. I can’t Giúp laughing
when I watch their commedies or hilarious sitcoms . It’s really fun and very helpful to relieve stress. That’s
the reason why I love waching comedy films.
That’s all for now. I hope to see you soon

those invited. The party began at about three in the afternoon. There were about twenty guests gathered in
her house. We were all dressed in our best clothes. Everyone, especially Huong was very happy. We gave
our presents to her and she happily opened them. It must really be exciting to receive all those presents.
After that her mother served us soft drinks and delicious titbits. We then played some games like "Musical
Chairs" and "Treasure Hunt". The winners were given prizes. At about four-thirty her father brought out the
birthday cake. It was beautifully decorated with pink and white icream. 25 colorful candles sat in the middle
of the cake. We all sang "Happy Birthday" to Huong after which she blew out the candles and cut the cake.
Everyone clapped out hands eagerly. We helped ourselves to slices of the delicious cake. Then we continued
our games.
Finally at about six in the evening the party came to an end. We were all tired but happy. I helped Huong
and her parent clean up the mess we made. After that I walked home with a very good feeling .
That’s all for now. Hope to see you soon

My house is on a small and quiet street in Hai Ba Trung district and the neighborhood is really nice. It takes
about half an hour to go to the city center and 40 minutes to drive to my office. There are some shopping
centers, supermarkets near my house that’s the reasons why we bought this house. It isn’t a big house was
built 5 years ago and painted in yellow. There is also a small garden where I can grow vegetables and
flowers. Next to the garden there is a small yard where my children often play after school.There are 3 floors
and four main rooms in my house: a living room, a dining rooms, two bedrooms. Besides, we have a
kitchen, a bathroom and a toilet. I like the living room was painted in light green. In this room, we have a tea
table, a sofa, a television and there are a couple of oil paintings on the wall. After dinner, our family often
spend time together talking to each other or watching our favourite TV program. I love my house. Every
day, when I come back home from work, I have a warm feeling of being together with my whole family.
Last week, I decided to buy a new shelf and a sofa at a furniture shop. They were delivered to my house
yesterday. I put the shelf next to the table on the left. The bright color of the shelf goes well with the color of
the wall behind it. I put the sofa in the right corner of the bed to sit on when I want to watch TV or read

Topic 11: Building
Bitexco Financial Tower is a skyscraper in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, owned by Bitexco Group, a
Vietnamese company . With 68 floors above ground and three basements, the building has a height of 262.5
metres. It’s the second tallest Building in Vietnam after Hanoi Landmark Tower located in Pham Hung
Street Hanoi City ! Designed by New York Architect Carlos Zapata. His Design inspiration came from
Lotus the national flower of Vietnam. So, the building look like a giant lotus stands brightly in the business
center of Hochiminh City. The unique point of this building is a heli- pad on the 52 storey.he heli-pad
extends 22 meters out from the main structure. It is strong enough to carry a helicopter under 3 tons of
weight. Theseday it becomes a symbol of prosperous and development of modern City Ho Chi Minh
The building features a 5-star hotel, offices, entertainment areas, retail spaces, clinics and convention centers
SPRING
Vietnam is in tropical climate and has 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Autumn may be
loved by many people because the weather is nice: cool and not strong sunshine. But Spring is the most
meaningful and special, because it is not only beautiful, but also waiting by all of Vietnamese people. It is
season of reunion, season of the coming back to hometown of all daughters and sons even when they are no
longer young.
Spring normally start from Jan or Feb of the calendar year, and last for 3 months. The weather is often a bit
cold with small rain. That’s why in Spring all the tree sprout with the new leaves and many kind of flowers
bloom.
In Vietnam, when Spring comes, also the Tet holiday. It is the biggest festival in Vietnam, with at least four
public holidays (will becomes five from 2013) but normally, the holiday often last for at least 1 week. It
start when the Lunar year start. It is the first day of Lunar new year. Everybody stop working, come back to
their hometown, and enjoy the time with their family. The whole holiday is only for enjoying, no working. It
is the time for family, friends, and neighborhood. Everybody wear the most beautiful clothes, visit each
other and say the best wishes. They also give each other the lucky money put in the red pocket. Spring in
Vietnam really is the season of gather and reunion.
Building
I'm really interested in Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower. Because it's not only the tallest building in
Hanoi but also all over Vietnam . It is a supertall skyscraper located in Pham Hung street . It takes
approximately 20 minutes by car from the city center. the complex consists of one 72-story office tower with
the height of 350 m and two 48-storey residence towers . The complex features a 5-star hotel, offices,
entertainment areas, retail spaces, clinics and convention centers....
FACEBOOK : It seems everyone loves Facebook. Everywhere you go, you can see people logged in,
updating their status. Whether they are at home, work or in the passenger seat of a vehicle on their way to
school, people of all ages are signing in to the most popular social network, Facebook. One reason,
Facebook is so popular is that there is a huge amount of Facebook members. Sharing pictures, videos, and
interests are some of the features many people enjoy on Facebook. Being able to connect with friends and
family anytime, from anywhere is another. Making connections with friends from the past is something else
that Facebook makes possible. Facebook has tons of applications and games available on the site also.
Playing games with Facebook friends is a great way to spend leisure time. People that have a lot of time, for
that sort of thing, really get into it. It is, as if, they are in their own little virtual world. Playing a game alone,
against the computer is something no one has to do any more.

The One Pillar Pagoda (Chùa Một Cột in Vietnamese) is a Buddhist temple in the Ho Chi Minh
Mausoleum complex near Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi. The Pagoda has a unique design that is meant to
evoke a lotus flower rising out of the water. On this flower sat the goddess of mercy, who was seen by the
Emperor Ly Thai Tong in a dream handing the latter a baby boy.Afterwards, the Emperor married a
peasant girl, who bore him a son. Overjoyed by his good fortune, the Emperor ordered the construction of
the One Pillar Pagoda
Hanoi Opera House: It is an old theatre with French architecture and typical Gothic and Mosaic characters
reflected on the door domes and the glassed room respectively. For a long time, the Hanoi Opera House

America, people call it Soccer, but I like to call it Football. I idolise Barcelona football club and Messi is my
favourite football player. I’ve never missed any matches of them althought it’s always live at midnight .I
began to play football when I was 6 years old. So far, I have been playing football with my friends on the
wide yard near my house in free time , after shool or after work every day . It clearly that playing football
make me fit, healthy, avoid some desease. In addtion, like the other sports, football Giúp me make new
friends when I take part in some football team. I meet many young and elderly people playing football with
me. They not only Giúp me in every match but also share me everything in daily life and so on.
Especially, football make me enjoy my life after stressful working hours. Therefore, I like football the most
due to several reasons above .
That’s all for now . Hope to see you soon

Topic 9: I guess there are many traditional festival in your country. What is the most important one?
Why do people celebrate this festival?
Dear friend,
I’ve just received your email in which you asked me to tell you about the most important traditional
festival in my country.There are a number of festivals in VN but the most important one is certainly TET. It
is the time when family members come home from all parts of the country to have family reunion. It is
often a one – week holiday. Before Tet, people often redecorate their houses by repainting walls, buying
beautiful flowers, bonsais, food, drinks, cakes, candies…During Tet, people visit their relatives, teachers,
friends. People wish each other good luck, good health and good success. Tet is time for each person come
back home, meet again friends, relatives and has some great parties after a busy year. They also go to
temples, pagodas to pray the best luck for their families. Children are so happy because they are given new
clothes and they receive lucky money in red envelops from adults. What about the most important holiday in
your country?
That’s all for now.Hope to hear from you soon.
See you

yoga… They not only make you strong but Giúp you relax as well. So, it helps you keep fit and stay healthy.

Bitexco Financial Tower is a skyscraper in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, owned by Bitexco Group, a
Vietnamese company . With 68 floors above ground and three basements, the building has a height of 262.5
metres. It’s the second tallest Building in Vietnam after Hanoi Landmark Tower located in Pham Hung
Street Hanoi City ! Designed by New York Architect Carlos Zapata. His Design inspiration came from
Lotus the national flower of Vietnam. So, the building look like a giant lotus stands brightly in the business
center of Hochiminh City. The unique point of this building is a heli- pad on the 52 storey.he heli-pad

SPRING
Vietnam is in tropical climate and has 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Autumn may be
loved by many people because the weather is nice: cool and not strong sunshine. But Spring is the most
meaningful and special, because it is not only beautiful, but also waiting by all of Vietnamese people. It is
season of reunion, season of the coming back to hometown of all daughters and sons even when they are no
longer young.
Spring normally start from Jan or Feb of the calendar year, and last for 3 months. The weather is often a bit
cold with small rain. That’s why in Spring all the tree sprout with the new leaves and many kind of flowers
bloom.
In Vietnam, when Spring comes, also the Tet holiday. It is the biggest festival in Vietnam, with at least four
public holidays (will becomes five from 2013) but normally, the holiday often last for at least 1 week. It
start when the Lunar year start. It is the first day of Lunar new year. Everybody stop working, come back to
their hometown, and enjoy the time with their family. The whole holiday is only for enjoying, no working. It
is the time for family, friends, and neighborhood. Everybody wear the most beautiful clothes, visit each
other and say the best wishes. They also give each other the lucky money put in the red pocket. Spring in
Vietnam really is the season of gather and reunion.
Building
I'm really interested in Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower. Because it's not only the tallest building in
Hanoi but also all over Vietnam . It is a supertall skyscraper located in Pham Hung street . It takes
approximately 20 minutes by car from the city center. the complex consists of one 72-story office tower with
the height of 350 m and two 48-storey residence towers . The complex features a 5-star hotel, offices,
entertainment areas, retail spaces, clinics and convention centers....
FACEBOOK : It seems everyone loves Facebook. Everywhere you go, you can see people logged in,
updating their status. Whether they are at home, work or in the passenger seat of a vehicle on their way to
school, people of all ages are signing in to the most popular social network, Facebook. One reason,
Facebook is so popular is that there is a huge amount of Facebook members. Sharing pictures, videos, and
interests are some of the features many people enjoy on Facebook. Being able to connect with friends and
family anytime, from anywhere is another. Making connections with friends from the past is something else
that Facebook makes possible. Facebook has tons of applications and games available on the site also.
Playing games with Facebook friends is a great way to spend leisure time. People that have a lot of time, for
that sort of thing, really get into it. It is, as if, they are in their own little virtual world. Playing a game alone,
against the computer is something no one has to do any more.

The One Pillar Pagoda (Chùa Một Cột in Vietnamese) is a Buddhist temple in the Ho Chi Minh
Mausoleum complex near Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi. The Pagoda has a unique design that is meant to
evoke a lotus flower rising out of the water. On this flower sat the goddess of mercy, who was seen by the
Emperor Ly Thai Tong in a dream handing the latter a baby boy.Afterwards, the Emperor married a
peasant girl, who bore him a son. Overjoyed by his good fortune, the Emperor ordered the construction of
the One Pillar Pagoda
Hanoi Opera House: It is an old theatre with French architecture and typical Gothic and Mosaic characters
