PART 2

Describe a place you visited on vacation.

Answer.

For my most memorable vacation, I'd have to say it was a


quick getaway last year to Vung Tau, a beach town just south of Ho Chi Minh
City, last year. I was craving some sun and relaxation, and Vung Tau, with its
beautiful coastline and vibrant atmosphere, seemed like the perfect
escape.

Vung Tau offered a delightful mix of activities. I spent my days lounging on


the beach, soaking up the sunshine and the refreshing sea breeze. The
water was crystal clear, perfect for taking a dip and cooling off. In the
evenings, the town transformed into a bustling hub. The beachfront came
alive with street vendors selling delicious local snacks, and the lively cafes
were perfect for people-watching and soaking up the atmosphere.

What truly made this vacation special was the feeling of rejuvenation and
the opportunity to experience a different culture. There's something
incredibly calming about spending your days listening to the rhythm of the
waves and feeling the warm sand between your toes. Vũng Tau's laid-
back vibe was exactly what I needed to unwind and de-stress. Plus, the
delicious food and the chance to learn a bit about Vietnamese culture added
another layer of enjoyment to the trip. By the end of the break, I felt
completely refreshed and with a newfound appreciation for the beauty of
Vietnam's coastline.

PART 3

1. Do you think travelling was better in the past than it is now?

Answer: I wouldn't say travel was necessarily better in the past. Back then, it
might have felt more adventurous with fewer tourists, but it was also often
slower and less comfortable. Nowadays, with tons of transport means like
flights, trains, and buses, exploring the world is easier and more accessible.

2. What difficulties do people often face when travelling?

Answer: Travelling isn't always smooth sailing! Common difficulties include


dealing with flight delays or cancellations, which are often frustrating for
passengers who don’t receive any compensation from the airline.
Moreover, packing mishaps, like forgetting essentials or having luggage go
missing, can also add stress to the trip. When setting foot into unfamiliar
places, travellers may get lost or encounter language barriers when trying
to communicate.

Vocabulary.

 Smooth sailing (idiom): suôn sẻ

 Delay (n): hoãn

 Cancellation (n): hủy

 Compensation (n): đền bù

 Mishap (n): sự cố

3. Do you think technology makes travelling more difficult?

Answer: No, it's often the opposite! Travel apps are especially helpful when
you need to navigate unfamiliar cities. Also, translation tools can bridge
language barriers, and online booking platforms make planning and
booking trips a breeze. Technology can be a great way to streamline the
travel process.

 Navigate (v): định hướng

 Barrier (n): rào cản

 Booking (n): đặt phòng

 Platform (n): nền tảng

4. What is the importance of traveling?

Answer: Travelling is a valuable experience that goes far beyond taking


photos! It allows you to broaden your horizons and experience different
cultures firsthand. By immersing yourself in new places, you can see the
world through fresh eyes and learn about diverse ways of life. Travel can
also challenge your own perspectives and force you to step outside
your comfort zone. This can be a great way to build resilience and
personal growth.
