HOUSE AND HOME
My house is located at number 50 27/4 street, Baria city. It is in a quiet neighborhood. It is small and made of bricks. It’s about 5m wide and 20 m long. It has four rooms. They are: the living room, the bedroom, the kitchen and the bathroom. The living room and the bedroom are very nice and tidy. There is not much furniture in my house. It is old and inexpensive.
My family consists of five people. They are my parents, my elder brother, my younger sister and I. My father is an engineer. He is working in a government office. My mother is a teacher and she is teaching in the primary school. My sister is a student. I feel very happy to live at home because my parents, my brother and my sister love me a lot. I love them very much, too.

Topic 3
EDUCATION AND FUTURE CAREER
Hello, teacher and class. And now I will tell you something about my education and future career.
My name’s Van Khang. I am an eighth-form student of PhuocNguyen junior high school. At school I study a lot of subjects, exactly 14, such as: mathematics, physics, chemistry, literature, English and so on.
I like English, music because I think they are very interesting and funny. I dislike physical education because my health is not good. Besides studying English at school, I am attending an English course at a language centre in the evening.
When I finish high school, I will choose a career in tourism. I would like to become a tourist guide because I like to go everywhere, visit beautiful places, get in touch with all kinds of people and have opportunities to practice my English. I wish that my dream would come true.
That’s all. Thanks for your listening.
