1. Personally, I prefer life of the country to the city. There are many reasons why I like it. First of all, in the country is very quiet, which brings me the peace and the comfort. Second of all, living in the country helps me avoid the noise of vehicles and the smoke, dust from them such as motorbikes, cars, trucks and so on. So this is good for my health. Thirdly, people in the country are very friendly and hospitable. If you live in urban areas, you couldn’t know your neighbors. This makes me boried and lonely. Finally, the costs of living in the city are much higher than that in the country. The prices of goods are also very high. Because of the disadvantages of living in the city, I want to live and work in the country.

Some people ask me if I like living in my hometown. The answer is certainly ‘yes’. The simple reason is that it has lots of (1. interest)...INTERESTING... places. If you want to widen your knowledge of the past, you can go to the museum. It’s a (2. history)...HISTORIC.... building, with a big collection of valuable artefacts.

(Trả lời câu hỏi viết câu trả lời đầy đủ một chút tại đây dùng để nói)

On one hand, traditional crafts have many benefits, such as providing employment, preserving cultural heritage, and helping develop tourism.

Firstly, traditional crafts provide many people, especially young ones in rural areas with job opportunities.

Now, besides farming, they can live on handicraft making or other follow-up services.

Secondly, traditional crafts help preserve cultural heritage which is shown through sophisticated handicrafts by skillful artisans.

In addition, more and more tourists like visiting craft villages and buying handicrafts as souvenirs. Therefore, local tourism will develop quickly.

On the other hand, Vietnamese craftsmen have faced some challenges.

As tourism develops, handicrafts are at risk of losing authenticity. They may be made for the commercial demands of tourists rather than for the real purpose of art.

Waste treatment and pollution are other issues in craft villages because waste is often directly released into the local environment without proper treatment.

And there’s a lot of competition from other countries like China or India.

Dear Sheera.
Long time i met you... how are you? today i am going to write to tell you about the city that i am living. the place where i live is a city of northern Vietnam, it's Ha Noi city! In my city , there are many interesting things. the streets here are always busy, and i really like that noise. Don't think that in the city there won't be no fresh air like in your home town , in the morning you can walk by the lakeside to enjoy the cool breeze and watch the artisans something sit by the lake to finance. In addition, you can go to the small restaurants here to enjoy the delious foods in Hanoi or go to the streets to hang out. A bustling cheese wall will also mean a lot of traffic jams, and there are many factories here, so the air in many ares is not clean. Even so, i love my city very much! Do you love your city? Tell me about it in the next letter!

1.Describe a place of interest in your hometown

=> I live in New York with my parents. There are a good number of interesting places to see and visit here. But the New York Public Library is more interesting to me than any other places.

I am a citizen of the USA by birth but my parents are not. They came here in search of living from Larissa in Greece during the 1980s. They have been living for around 36 years in this city. After my birth and I got matured enough, they took me to different interesting places to visit in the New York City, and these places are really interesting. But being an introvert, I disliked the crowds and the public library appeared to be more interesting to me than other places. The place is filled with books on numerous issues, magazines, documents and many other things. The classics available in the library were my favourite.

Going to the library is easier for me. In fact, this is not far away from my residence. The New York Public Library is only a 10-minute walk from my home. It remains open from 10 am to 8 pm, except the weekends. Usually, I go there in the evening and read books or novels until the library is closed. Besides, the library is accessible from the other parts of the city. The people who want to visit the library can reach here using several transportation modes. They can reach the library by taxi, metro or by their private cars. But the people who live nearby, like me, come here mostly on foot.

The New York Public Library is a great place to read. But the people who come here are not readers always. Some of them are researchers, while some others may be historians or musicians. Actually, the library is visited by a wide range of people. Basically, the library comes with the reading facilities. But there is also the scope to check the reference books, peep on the music directory or crosscheck any history. Besides, the reading rooms are well expanded and the readers have ample opportunities to use the books and references after their needs. But they have to be careful with the books. Silence among the readers while reading books is expected there.

Reading books may appear boring to many but it is very interesting to me. I love reading books. The books help us to know the unknown and unseen. The experiences of past thousand years have been preserved in books in words. So, when I read them, it appears that I am travelling through time! But every place is not suitable for reading and it requires a very special environment. Hence, I think a library is a nice place to read. At the same time, it is an interesting place as an enriched collection of books are available together. In fact, it is impossible for an individual to collect a part of the books of this library in his entire life. So, I find more interest in reading books in a calm place and the New York Public Library is a place I would recommend to a tourist.
