-> My favorite place to buy clothing is online shopping. I like it because it’s convenient
and its price fits my budget.
-> My favorite restaurant is really cozy and nice. It’s in an old building, so the
atmosphere is really “old-style”. And the food here is the best for me, and as well as the
price.
1. What is your preferred method of transportation?
-> My preferred method of transportation is the motorbike. I like it because it is
convenient and it helps me get to school faster.

2. Where do you usually do your food shopping?

-> I usually do my food shopping at markets and supermarkets. It depends on the distance
from me to where I buy food. I usually buy food from there because the food is nice and
fits with my budget.

3. Describe the kind of music you usually listen to ?

-> My kind of music I usually listen to is V-pop, like pop ballads and pop rock. I like it
because it fits my type and it heals my soul.
4. How long have you lived in your current residence?
-> I have lived in my current residence since I was a freshman, and now I am a third-year
student. I like to live there because the people are friendly, and it is also convenient to get
to the school.

-> No, not really every day. I eat breakfast when I feel hungry in the morning or I need
power to work for a whole day.
-> I like to go on vacation in Da Lat. I like it because the atmosphere there is peaceful,
and I can relax after studying very hard.

-> I often go sightseeing on my vacation. The reason I say this is that I can relax while I
go sightseeing, and walking can help me feel healthy.
-> No, I’m not really a good cook. That’s because I only cook very simple food, and
usually I wash dishes more than I cook.

-> Yes, I really like comedy. That’s because it’s fun and it helps relax. Another thing is
that the comedy is not really a comedy; it's teaching me a lot of things about life.
-> My favorite drink is coffee. I drink it every day because it gives me power for a whole
day to study and work. And usually I drink a bit because if I drink too much, it makes me
feel sick.

-> There are some types of food stores in my neighborhood, such as department stores,
supermarkets, cheap food stalls, street food vendors, and coffeehouses. They are very
popular because I live near the city center.
-> I usually go food shopping once a week. That’s because it’s my day off and I can have
more time to select fresh food. Another thing is that the price at that time is less than
other days.

-> I travel to university every day by motorbike. That’s because my current residence is
far from school and not near bus stops. Another thing is that I can have more time to do
what I like.
-> I like reading cookbooks. That’s because I myself want to cook my favorite food
without having to go out to eat. Which makes it very convenient. Another thing is that I
want to cook for my family.

-> I often play sports, like soccer, every weekend. That’s because I’m very busy with
school on weekdays. Another thing is that the weekend is the ideal time to relax after a
hard studying week.
-> I was born on September 23, 2003. And now it is January, so my birthday is in a few
months. Also, this is the time that makes me happiest because I always have my parents
by my side.

-> Yes, I do. And sometimes I skip a meal because I’m playing a video game or I’m busy
on something interesting and I don’t want to stop.
-> I like to play a video game and listen to my favorite songs. And I do both at the same
time because the music makes it comfortable for me to play a video game. Another thing
is that it helps me relax after a hard studying week.

-> I usually buy shoes online. That’s because online shoes are convenient and give me
more time to do what I like. Another thing is that the price fits my budget, so I can buy
my favorite shoes.
