Nick's mum: Today we're making a prawn salad, which is a favourite of mine.

Mi: Fantastic. I love salad.

Nick's mum: This salad is simple but delicious. Here are the ingredients: prawns, celery, spring onions, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Nick: What should I do first, Mum?

Nick's mum: Get a big bowl for me. And then can you wash the celery?

Nick: Sure.

Mi: I can wash the spring onions if you like, Mrs Warner.

Nick's mum: Please, do. I'll boil the prawns.

Mi: So, do English people eat lots of salad?

Nick's mum: Yes, especially in the summertime. People often serve salad as a starter. But salads also make a healthy lunch or supper.

Mi: You’re right they're so versatile. And you car put anything in a salad.

Nick: Mum, the prawns are pink now.

Nick's mum: They're pink?

Nick: Yes.

Nick's mum: Good, they're ready. I'll drain them. Nick, can you peel them? Mi, could you chop the celery and spring onions? You should be careful if you use the red knife - it's sharp.

Mi: Right, everything's ready. What do we do next?

Father: This is a present for you, son.

Nguyen: A kite! How cool! Thank you, dad.

Father: I made it for you, just like your grandfather used to make one for me.

Nguyen: Is it a family tradition?

Father: Yes, for generations.

Nguyen: I love it. So when you were a kid, what did you use to do for entertainment?

Father: Oh, it was all very simple back then. We didn't have television or the internet. A mobile movie team used to come once every two months, and everyone from the village would be there. The children were always early, trying to get a place near the screen.

Nguyen: I suppose it was a special occasion, wasn't it?

Father: Sure.

Nguyen: I wish there were movie teams like that now.

Father: Yeah, it was a lot of fun.

Nguyen: Then how did you get to know about the world outside?

Father: We had the radio; actually, only wealthy people did. The whole village used to listen to the news programme through a loudspeaker.

Nguyen: Wow, I can't imagine that.

Father: I know. The world's changed a lot, son. It's much easier now.

Nguyen: Do you miss the past, dad?

Father: I suppose I do. Sometimes I wish I could go back to that time.

Veronica: ... I’ve been choosing my school subjects for next year. I’ve decided to take a vocational GCSE* along with some traditional academic subjects.

Nhi: A vocational GCSE? What’s that?

Veronica: Well, GCSEs are secondary certifi cates of education which are studied by students aged between 14 to 16. In vocational subjects, students can study a work sector like applied business, design, health, or tourism.

Nhi: Isn’t it hard to study both academic and vocational subjects at the same time? And isn’t it too soon to be doing vocational training?

Veronica: Well, no… they off er an applied approach to learning so it’s not too diffi  cult or too soon. I think it adds variety.

Nhi: Oh, I see! What area are you interested in?

Veronica: Leisure and Tourism.

Nhi: So, what job opportunities are there in tourism?

Veronica: A lot. You can work as a housekeeper, receptionist, tour guide, lodging manager, chef, or event planner. You can also work in customer service…

Nhi: Sounds interesting! What if you change your mind later?

Veronica: No worries. I can still progress to further education to take A levels*. With A levels, I can go to college or university. What about you?

Nhi: My dad is encouraging me to choose biology, chemistry, and physics.

Veronica: Wow! To become a doctor?

Nhi: Yeah, we’ve discussed becoming a doctor, but I may also become a biologist.
