7. What do you think is the best leisure activities for teenagers? Why do you think so?
In my opinions, community is the best leisure activities for teenager. First, because today's teens are not confident in communicating and living virtual with technology so they have no hobby and do not know how to play sports and they are afraid to meet someone so it can change they more confident. Second, it will make them know more knowledge and more life skills. Besides, it improves health, helps us feel comfortable and acquainted with many new people will help us always happy and not alone when sad and we can share interesting things together and make us have good friendship. Finally, this action will help the world become more and more attached and better in the future. As I have noted (in short, for these reasons) teenagers should communication with people and friends more for a good future life of yourself and of us.
I believe the best leisure activity for teenagers is any group activity. This could be playing a team sport or joining a hobby group or even volunteering. Firstly, teenagers like to feel that they belong to the group. Secondly, being part of a group helps teenagers make friends. Friendship is very important to teenagers. In addition, they will make friends with people who have the same interests as them. For these reasons, I think group activities are best for teenagers
8. Should parents decide how teenagers spend their free times?
In my opinion, parents should decide for teenagers spend their free time sensibly. It must right balance between learning and playing. First, young people can play thirty minutes in their free time after school is finished, during work breaks, teens can play sports such as basketball, football, badminton and so on. They have few friends, free time is not known, then they on facebook all day, it's a waste of time. Second, young people can read books to develop the brain and thinking ability. Third, young people can help their parents with housework in your spare time, or go charity with her parents. Fourth, parents should provide for youth participation in social activities so that they are more confident and make friends. For this reason, parents should let teens participate in activities or play in their free time and do not create pressure for teens.
Topic 2: Life in the countryside
1. Talking about what you like or dislike about the life in the countryside? Why?
Like: People can live in the fresh atmosphere in the countryside. They can go fishing in the river for food. There was so much space so we can run around the fields and shout out loud without disturbing anybody and we will feel so freedom. I like picking fruits like blackberries, apple, mango, etc, and I like do farm work like digging holes, plaiting vegetables, collecting water, swimming in the river and flying kites with new friends.
Dislike: It is inconvenient without shopping centre, supermarket and entertainment centre is miles away. There is also no running water and electricity and it doesn’t excite at all and the life there have a little boring than the city
2.What do you like about the life of nomads?
I like the ger of them, because it keep cool in summer and warm in winter, even when the temperature drops to -50C and it can be put up then taken down and transported so it convenient.
I like to go to everywhere and meet new people will make we have more skills and I like the beautiful grassland, vast pastures, rivers and mountains they go to.
The children there learn to ride a horse and they learn to be brave and it so interesting with me
3.What don’t you like about the life of nomads?
They can’t live permanently in one place and I don’t like doing too much heavy work like herding the cattle and they only have some little food, no food like noodle, hamburger, etc.
The nomads life is not as modern as the life of city, The life in the city is more interesting things.
4.Talk about changes in your neighborhood.
On summer holidays, I often go back to my hometown and I have seen many changes in this rural area over the years. The most impressive change is in education. Recently, there are more schools rebuilt nearby and they are better equipped. This summer, my hometown friends and me enjoy reading different kind of books and comic in the new library. This change make me stay here a lot more enjoy able. Means of communication is the second big change I can see in this area. In the past, the common way to contact somebody far away was to write letters by hand. Nowadays, thank to mobile phone and even social networks, the local can keep in touch more easily. However, the negative change in the environment is something I dislike, Vast paddy fields where the children used to fly kites no longer exist. Instead a new industrial zone appears. Worse, factories in the zone are polluting the river and make it too dirty for us. As I have noted, my hometown has experienced both positive and negative changes. ( My neighborhood has lot of better change in this area than the past).
5. Do you like live in the city in the country or the city? Why?
I like live in the countryside because it peaceful and the atmosphere there is not polluted as the city. I love the fresh air in here and the beautiful scenery here like the big beautiful vast, the blue sky, the rivers and trees, etc. The people here are friendly and kind, they are hard farmer and I like the persistence of them. I like to help them working and after I finished I can enjoy to relax with a a cup of milk or tea. I love the life in the countryside very much because it have a big meaningful with me.
I like the live in the city because it modern and more convenient than the life of the countryside and it have a lot of interesting things than the countryside. The life of there have lot of modern furniture such as: washing machine, modern television, cleaner machine, electric stove, microwave oven, air conditional, electricity fan, etc and it support for we to do housework.

In each Bahnar villages, there is a large public house and it call the Rong house ( or communal house) in the middle of the villages. The communal house is the headquarters or the villages, where the village elders meet for public work, where the villagers meet, where the unmarried boy sleeps night, where the ceremonial customs or the community and the reception of strange guests in to the villages. Bahnar people have many festival as; thankgiving to parents, buffalo stabbing ceremony, etc. The life of Bahnar have lot of thing interesting with me
The Cham have a population of nearly 162 thousand people living in the provinces of Ninh Thuan, Binh Thuan, Dong Nai and Tay Ninh. Their language belongs to the Malayo- Polynesian group. Their production activities include: cultivating wet rice, fishing and making handicrafts. The Chan are famous for their silk and hand-made pottery. The Cham have a tradition of wet rice cultivation, they are also experienced in fishing and making handicraft, especially silk and hand-made pottery. Every year, they hold the Kate festival to commemorate the dead and honour heroes in the Cham community. Various agricultural ceremonies are performed during the year for a new canal, for young rice and for many so many other occasions. Personally, I find the Cham ethnic people very interesting. Experience their way of life if possible, it’s worth your time.

It’s a joyful time that brings my family together. 5. Talk about a traditional danceNow I will to tell you about the xoe dance, a traditional dance of the Thai ethnic group in Viet Nam. Thai people have followed this spiritual tradition for generations. The xoe dance expresses people’s working life and wishes for a happy and wealthy life. It is performed in both public and private gatherings such as celebrations, festivals or family reunions.The xoe dance has more than 30 forms based on the first six ancient forms. The most popular form is the xoe vong or ‘circle dance’ because it expresses social unity. People, young or old alike, join hands to make a circle around the fire and dance to the music. Besides the circle dance, there are dances with conical hats, paper fans or scarves.Old people say they shouldn’t break with this tradition it because reflects Thai culture and lifestyle. As a Thai folk song goes, without the xoe dance, the rice won’t grow and people won’t get married. I like this dance.
The Obon dance is a traditional Japanese dance. People have the honour of their ancestors. The Obon festival takes place in mid-August in many regions of Japan and in mid-July in other regions. There are many forms in different regions. The most typical form is circle dance. People make a circle around a yagura, a high wooden stage; some dancers move clockwise, and some counter-clockwise. This is one of the most important traditions. A lot of people come back to reunite with their families during the Obon festival. I really like this dance.
Topic 5: Festival in Viet Nam
*some questions about writing posts (reply): một số câu hỏi về bài viết (tự trả lời)
-What is the festival? -What time this festival take place? -Who worship in that festival? -What activities in that festival? -Do you like this festival? Why or why not? 4. How important is the traditional festival to our in life?-Festivals bring in positivity and happiness. They make you enthusiastic and excited for little things. They help in spreading love and kindness. And this is what the world needs. Life is cheerful with festivals. They become one reason behind your smile. So celebrate all the good things in life :)
- Festivals for us are the chains and that bind Friends, Families and time together and hence closed ones to spend more lead to happiness and Love which boosts the quality of our Life. In today era where we all are running like crazy behind Materialistic things Festivals are a welcome break for us to stop, smell the roses and prioritize our Goals and what we want from Life. It is very easy to get carried away without a thought to what makes us happy. Festivals for me is a time which takes the clock back and reminds me every single time what I need the most.
- Festivals are like cherry in the cake. Where we make some good memories, meet relatives. If we have festivals we can enjoy life by making it special than the other usual days which have every day. Life is not about living. It is about benefiting everyone by spreading joy and peace.
5. What should we do to preserve our tradition festival?
- Because they are our common experiences and the factors that form nations. Festival can be considered as part of culture and that is a major factor that bonds nations. That is not to say that we must oppose change. A culture that doesn’t changes with time and changing circumstances and under the influence of other cultures becomes a dead culture, just as a language that no longer adepts to changing uses is a dead language.
- Because these things preserved the lives and safety of our ancestors in the past and while they may lack use currently, they may save our children in the future. It rarely cost anything to remember and maintain the key attributes of your cultural identity especially when you integrate them with your current situation.
- Good traditions festival should be preserved until something is proven to be better comes about, something that causes people to rejoice in the goodness of being alive, something that is equally uplifting, something that gives hope and creates love, or until these arrogant, bored, pugnacious generations are gone in order to give rise to yet another generation willing to try and change things for what they perceive to be better than the former generation’s traditions.
