relatives and friends to sit together. Everyone tried to choose a special gift for my grandpa.
People also sent greetings to him, which are mostly about health. Then, people enjoyed the
party with delicious and well-prepared food. However, the most lovely part of the celebration
was the time after the party. When all of the invitees had left, our family gathered together
and took a trip down memory lane. It reminded me of the good old days when I was a little
girl. No matter how big a problem I got into, I could always ask my grandpa for help or

Part 1 1, What place do you most like to visit? My favorite place to visit is My grandparent’s house. They live in a small village in Vinh Phuc province. Because I live far away from my grandparents, I often come back every summer vacation and it has a lot of memories for me. 2, Is it popular with many other people? Why/ Why not?

It’s not popular with many other people. Because it is a small village in a rural area. This place has many green fields with cool rivers. However, It is close to a famous scenic spot in my country, Tam Dao Mountain. 3, Has it changed very much since you first went there? In what way? Even though I visit often, I'm still surprised by these changes. First, The fields have mostly been flattened and replaced by high-rise buildings. Secondly, The river that my friends and I often frequent has disappeared, replaced by a large park. However, there are still some negative changes. The village's main economic source is farming and most of the villagers are older people, so when they don't have fields, it is very difficult for them to make money.

Science

1, Not really, I find science classes a bit challenging, especially when it comes to memorizing all those formulas in physics. I prefer subjects where I can be more creative, like literature or art. 2, I’ve never been particularly drawn to any one science subject, to be honest. I guess if I had to pick, chemistry might be the most interesting because it’s like cooking, but with elements. Still, it’s not really my cup of tea. 3, Yes, science classes are crucial for improving curiosity, critical thinking, and problem- solving skills. They help us understand the world, make informed decisions, and drive innovation across fields, making science education invaluable.

Part 2 tv dont like

Well I’d like to tell you about a TV program I don’t like. Lots of people enjoy different types of shows. Actually I don’t usually watch TV because of lack of free time. But a few days ago my father was watching TV. So, I started to watch the program with him. I expected it would be interesting, but after 5 minutes I was disappointed. Honestly I don’t remember the name of that program but it was about politics. there were two political figures who came from 2 opposite parties. They were debating with no respect for each other. I really detest this kind of show because usually people don’t listen to each other and very loudly. I think there’s nothing useful, and it’s just a waste of time. I prefer more TV series, or comedy shows without political debate.
