Reading 1:

The use of digital devices such as tablets and laptops has revolutionized the way students learn in the 21st century These devices have become an integral part of the modern classroom, replacing traditional paper-based materials and changing the way teachers deliver their lessons. They offer several benefits for both teachers and students.

Firstly, digital devices are highly portable, allowing students to take their learning materials with them wherever they go.

This is particularly useful for students who have to travel long distances to attend school or for those who need to study on the go. Digital devices also offer a wealth of interactive resources that are not available in traditional textbooks. Videos, animations, and simulations can be used to help students understand complex concepts, while quizzes and games can be used to reinforce learning and make it more engaging.

Another significant advantage of digital devices is the ability to access a vast range of online resources. Students can access educational websites, e-books, and online courses from anywhere in the world, providing them with a more comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the subject matter. Teachers can also use digital devices to connect with other educators around the world, sharing resources and collaborating on lesson plans.

While they offer students access to a wealth of interactive resources and educational materials, there is also the potential for distractions and technical problems. With the right approach, digital devices can be a valuable tool for modern learners, providing them with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the digital age.

Bình Phước, một tỉnh miền Đông Nam Bộ Việt Nam, không chỉ nổi bật với cảnh quan thiên nhiên tươi đẹp mà còn là nơi lưu giữ những giá trị văn hóa và tín ngưỡng dân gian phong phú của đồng bào các dân tộc thiểu số, trong đó có người Xtiêng. Một trong những tín ngưỡng nổi bật của người Xtiêng là lễ hội cúng thần linh và tổ tiên.

Người Xtiêng tin rằng các thần linh và tổ tiên luôn phù hộ cho họ trong cuộc sống hàng ngày. Vì vậy, họ thường tổ chức các lễ cúng để bày tỏ lòng thành kính và tôn trọng đối với những đấng thiêng liêng. Các lễ cúng thường được tổ chức vào các dịp lễ hội, đầu năm mới hoặc khi có sự kiện quan trọng trong gia đình như cưới hỏi hay khởi công xây dựng nhà cửa.

Trước khi diễn ra lễ cúng, gia đình sẽ chuẩn bị rất nhiều món ăn truyền thống như thịt heo, gà, xôi, rượu cần và hoa quả. Mỗi món ăn đều mang ý nghĩa riêng, thể hiện lòng biết ơn và sự trân trọng đối với tổ tiên. Bên cạnh đó, nơi tổ chức lễ cúng thường được bài trí trang trọng với các lễ vật được sắp xếp ngay ngắn trên bàn thờ. #### Nghi Thức Lễ Cúng Lễ cúng thường diễn ra dưới sự dẫn dắt của một thầy mo - người giữ vai trò quan trọng trong việc thực hiện các nghi thức. Thầy mo sẽ đọc các bài khấn, cầu xin phù hộ cho gia đình được bình an, sức khỏe dồi dào, làm ăn phát đạt. Bên cạnh những lời khấn, các điệu múa, nhảy truyền thống cũng được biểu diễn nhằm hòa cùng không khí lễ hội, tạo nên sự thiêng liêng và rộn ràng cho buổi lễ. #### Ý Nghĩa của Tín Ngưỡng Tín ngưỡng cúng thần linh và tổ tiên không chỉ là một tập tục văn hóa mà còn là sợi dây kết nối các thế hệ trong gia đình và cộng đồng. Nó giúp người dân gìn giữ bản sắc văn hóa, truyền tải những giá trị đạo đức, nhân văn sâu sắc. Qua đó, tín ngưỡng này còn thể hiện lòng biết ơn, sự kính trọng đối với tổ tiên, đồng thời tạo sự gắn kết giữa con người với thiên nhiên và xã hội. #### Kết Luận Tín ngưỡng dân gian của người Xtiêng tại Bình Phước là một phần không thể thiếu trong cuộc sống của họ. Nó không chỉ góp phần làm phong phú thêm bức tranh văn hóa đa dạng của vùng đất này mà còn thể hiện giá trị tinh thần cao cả của con người, góp phần duy trì bản sắc văn hóa dân tộc trong thời kỳ hội nhập. Tham gia vào các lễ hội cúng thần linh và tổ tiên, du khách không chỉ được trải nghiệm những phong tục tập quán độc đáo mà còn cảm nhận được tinh thần cộng đồng và những giá trị văn hóa đặc sắc của người Xtiêng.

In the United States, it is important to be on time , or punctual , for an appointment , a class, a meeting, etc. However, this may not be true in all countries. An American professor discovered the difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian university. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at 10 A.M. and end at 12. On the first day , when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many students came after 10:30 A.M. Two students came after 11 A.M. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness.Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students’ behavior.
The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation:at a lunch with a friend and in a university class, respectively.He gave them an example and asked them how they would react, If they had a lunch appointment with a friend,the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time,On the other hand.the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.
In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour.In contrast, in Brazil,neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour.Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States,but also end at the scheduled time.In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12:00;many remained past 12:30 to discuss the class and ask more questions.While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil , neither is staying late.

The explanation for these differences is complicated. People from Brazilian and North American cultures have different feelings about lateness. In Brazil, the students believe that a person who usually arrives late is probably more successful than a person who is always on time. In fact , Brazilians expect a person with status or prestige to arrive late, while in the United States lateness is usually disrespectful and unacceptable. Consequently, if a Brazilian is late for an appointment with a North American, the American may misinterpret the reason for the lateness and become angry.

As a result of his study, the professor learned that the Brazilian students were not being disrespectful to him. Instead, they were simply behaving in the appropriate way for a Brazilian student in Brazil. Eventually, the professor was able to adapt his own behavior so that he could feel comfortable in the new culture.

In the United States, it is important to be on time , or punctual , for an appointment , a class, a meeting, etc. However, this may not be true in all countries. An American professor discovered the difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian university. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at 10 A.M. and end at 12. On the first day , when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many students came after 10:30 A.M. Two students came after 11 A.M. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness.Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students’ behavior.
The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation:at a lunch with a friend and in a university class, respectively.He gave them an example and asked them how they would react, If they had a lunch appointment with a friend,the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time,On the other hand.the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.
In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour.In contrast, in Brazil,neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour.Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States,but also end at the scheduled time.In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12:00;many remained past 12:30 to discuss the class and ask more questions.While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil , neither is staying late.

The explanation for these differences is complicated. People from Brazilian and North American cultures have different feelings about lateness. In Brazil, the students believe that a person who usually arrives late is probably more successful than a person who is always on time. In fact , Brazilians expect a person with status or prestige to arrive late, while in the United States lateness is usually disrespectful and unacceptable. Consequently, if a Brazilian is late for an appointment with a North American, the American may misinterpret the reason for the lateness and become angry.

As a result of his study, the professor learned that the Brazilian students were not being disrespectful to him. Instead, they were simply behaving in the appropriate way for a Brazilian student in Brazil. Eventually, the professor was able to adapt his own behavior so that he could feel comfortable in the new.

I. Comprehension Questions:

1. What did the profressor decide to study? Who did the profressor study? How did he study them?

2. Did American students and Brazilian students have the same ideas about lateness in class? Do classes always begim and end at the appointed hour for both cultures?

3. What were the American students' and the Brazinlian students' ideas about being late for a lunch appointment?
