Speaking Park 2 Describe a person

Well, you know, throughout my life, the only person I pour out my heart to is my mom, and it is my pleasure to tell you about her.

My mom is not eye-catching. Despite her fresh smile, she is quite short with curly black hair and dark skin. The stocky figure highlights her in the crowd.

However, behind that appearance is her lofty soul. Mom takes every moment to care for me. I am luckily wrapped in her tender love, but the thing I am most proud of my mom is her big heart for people.

My mother is a teacher of art. Not only does she draw the beauty of our life in papers but she also helps engrave it in students mind, inspiring them to lead a healthy spiritual life and be confident when encountering any difficulties. I remember witnessing one of her students, whose father was a drunkard, crying with my mom when he had no money to afford study due to his fathers addiction. My mom encouraged him a lot. She also found way to his house, talked to his parents and discussed ways to support his study with the family. She called for fiscal help from the school, raised a fund and mobilized al l teachers and students parents to contribute money together to help unprivileged students out. She also donated money herself and proposed some policies which gave favorable conditions to those students. As a result, not only the mentioned boy but also many other children could enter the school, enjoy the education as well as the compassion of the society.

However, you know, it was a long story! My mom did sacrifice and struggle a lot. It is easier said than done! And she did it! Successfully! She is undeniably a shinning mirror for me to follow!

Describe an event As a cultural event taking place annually, Lunar New Year celebration is the moment I look forward to joining each year.

Lunar New Year celebration in Vietnam is also known as Tet Holiday, which lasts about three or four days, based on Lunar Calendar. Vietnamese people prepare for Tet by cleaning the house and cooking special foods such as Chung cake, and spring rolls. There are a lot of customs practiced during Tet with people worshipping ancestors, wishing New Year's greetings, and giving lucky money to children and the elderly.

Especially, despite being burdened with the hustle and bustle of modern life to win the bread, everyone stops working on the holiday and finds way back home. My father is a miner, and he is only permitted to leave the mine on Tet Holiday to rejoin us. We visit our relatives and temples, forgetting about the troubles of the past year, burning incense and praying for a better upcoming year. It is thanks to those moments immersing myself in cozy atmosphere with family, could I deeply appreciate the value of love and precious moments of reunion.

Certainly, this feeling is what our country praises. We would like to instill in following generations the belief that money gives people a more comfortable life,

but only love brings human happiness- the utmost desire of everyone. Lets turn this world into a place of caring, sociability and joyful moments. (Note: We can also modify this talk to suit the requirement to describe a festival or the moment you cannot forget ) Describe a historical place/ hometown/ tourism site (gp lun)

Vietnamese history was written by tears, blood and unspoken pains. I respectfully appreciate it and I am always proud of being born in Hai Duong, a place of not only unique charm but also glorious history.

Hai Duong is a small city, which is situated fifty kilometers to the East of Hanoi. The climate there is quite mild; I mean it is not too hot in summer and not too cold in winter. Besides, being at a small size with less stressful traffic jam and fewer fumes, my hometown is so clean and peaceful. Together with the fresh atmosphere, Hai Duong is also attractive with its picturesque scenes. I am impressed by green rice paddles and rows of trees grown along the roads leading to the city center. From the color of leaves on the trees, which changes in different seasons, to the touch of the breeze, everything is wild and natural. People in my hometown live in harmony with animals. Wild birds, dogs and cats are seen everywhere, and we can even see pigs, cows and buffaloes crossing the street, which excites many visitors, especially foreigners.

Above all, the glamour of my place stems from historical values of the old days, which we are preserving. There are over twenty temples and four magnificent pagodas in the region. In addition, we are conserving one palace of the King Tran, where he reigned for three years during the war with one Chinese Dynasty. The city is also wrapped by Six Heads River, which is a monument to the glorious victory of General Tran Hung Dao when fighting against enemy in thirteenth century. However, the image of more than two hundred tombs of unknown soldiers in the forest lying at the south of the city haunts all visitors and residents. Our

generations have grown up without the experience of war. Hence, nowhere can we perceive the hardship that our predecessors endured more apparently than in the moment setting foot there, standing in silence at their graveside and urging ourselves to devote more to this nation. Well, thats the image of my hometown- an appealing place of peace and heroic past.
