My people have long traditions of silk weaving to sew clothes or decorative materials. Many people wonder what is silk? I would like to answer that silk is a fine, thin fabric woven with silk. The best silk is made from silk. Silkworms are grown, and weave silkworms into silk. Silk weaving is a long-standing profession and originated in China.
According to the goddess of Co Do village, Ba Vi district, silkworm craft, silk nursery has been from the reign of King Hung Vuong sixth Princess Thieu Hoa started. Accordingly, the villagers who are skilled in silk weaving worship Thieu Hoa as the royal family. In the bibliography, the book also records that the Lac Viet people know how to grow mulberry and silkworm re-write "one year has two rice crop, eight litters "Proverbs for silk, good rice because of faeces," said the way to dress up the appearance and the phrase "Nga Son, Bat Trang brick, Nam Dinh silk, Ha Dong silk "to talk about Van Phuc village (Ha Dong district, Hanoi) is a famous village with beautiful silk weaving with many patterns and ages. Popular songs Ha Dong silk dress of musician Ngo Thuy Mien Nguyen Sa also praised the beauty of Ha Dong silk. The Ha Dong Silk Screening, a film won the "Audience Award" at the Pusan Film Festival, Korea, October 2006, about the beauty of Ha Dong silk dress. In addition, America's Tannery in Tan Chau Town, An Giang is well known.
Silk has many uses such as making clothes, decorations and some other applications in life. Silk garments are suitable for hot weather and are very active because silk is easily absorbed by sweat. Silk clothing is also suitable for cold weather because less heat conduction silk makes the wearer warmer. Because silk looks elegant, iridescent should be used as ornaments as curtains, curtains. In addition to making clothes and making crafts, silk is also used as a parachute (for jumping), bicycle tires, blankets and bags of gunpowder. The armor was previously made from silk to the First World War.
By special treatment, silk can be used as a non-absorbable in surgery. Chinese physicians have used silk to make artificial blood vessels. Silk is also used for writing.

Dân tộc tôi từ rất lâu đời đã có truyền thống dệt lụa để may vá quần áo hay làm vật liệu trang trí. Nhiều người tự hỏi lụa là gì? Tôi xin trả lời rằng lụa là một loại vải mịn, mỏng được dệt bằng tơ. Loại lụa tốt nhất được dệt từ tơ tằm. Người ta nuôi tằm, lấy tơ xe sợi dệt thành lụa. Dệt lụa là một nghề có từ rất lâu đời và có nguồn gốc từ Trung Quốc.
Theo thần tích làng Cổ Đô, huyện Ba Vì thì nghề chăn tằm, ươm tơ đã có từ thời vua Hùng Vương thứ 6 do công chúa Thiều Hoa khởi nghiệp. Nêu theo đó dân làng vốn giỏi nghề dệt lụa thờ Thiều Hoa làm thành hoàng.Trong thư tịch thì sách Hán Thư cũng ghi là người Lạc Việt biết trồng dâu nuôi tằm và lại ghi rõ là "một năm có hai vụ lúa, tám lứa tằm" Tục ngữ Việt Nam có câu "Người đẹp vì lụa, lúa tốt vì phân" ý nói cách ăn mặc tạo nên vẻ đẹp bề ngoài và câu "Chiếu Nga Sơn, gạch Bát Tràng, vải tơ Nam Định, lụa hàng Hà Đông" để nói về làng Vạn Phúc (quận Hà Đông, Hà Nội) là một làng nghề nổi tiếng dệt lụa đẹp với nhiều mẫu hoa văn và lâu đời.Bài hát phổ biến Áo lụa Hà Đông của nhạc sĩ Ngô Thụy Miên phổ thơ Nguyên Sa cũng ca ngợi vẻ đẹp của lụa Hà Đông. Bộ phim Áo lụa Hà Đông, một bộ phim đạt giải "Khán giả bình chọn" ở Liên hoan phim Pusan, Hàn Quốc, tháng 10 năm 2006, nói về nét đẹp của áo dài may bằng lụa Hà Đông. Ngoài ra, lụa Lãnh Mỹ A ở thị xã Tân Châu, An Giang cũng được nhiều người biết đến.
Lụa có rất nhiều công dụng như làm quần áo, đồ trang trí và một số ứng dụng khác trong cuộc sống. Quần áo bằng lụa rất thích hợp với thời tiết nóng và hoạt động nhiều vì lụa dễ thấm mồ hôi. Quần áo lụa cũng thích hợp cho thời tiết lạnh vì lụa dẫn nhiệt kém làm cho người mặc ấm hơn. Vì lụa có vẻ đẹp trang nhã, óng ánh nên hay được dùng làm đồ trang trí như màn, rèm. Ngoài dùng để may quần áo và làm thành các đồ thủ công, lụa còn được dùng làm dù (để nhảy), lốp xe đạp, chăn mền và túi đựng thuốc súng. Áo giáp chống đạn trước kia cũng làm từ lụa cho đến Đệ nhất Thế chiến.Bằng quá trình xử lí đặc biệt, tơ lụa có thể dùng làm chỉ không hấp thụ trong phẫu thuật. Các thầy thuốc Trung Quốc đã từng sử dụng lụa để làm mạch máu nhân tạo. Lụa cũng dùng để viết.
Nói tóm lại, dệt lụa là một nghề có nền văn hoá cao. Chính vì vậy, mỗi người trong chúng ta đều cần phải cố gắng bảo vệ truyền thống tốt đẹp đó để cho truyền thống nước ta thêm phong phú và đặc sắc hơn.

Last summer, I had a wonderful vacation at My Khe beach – Da Nang. We traveled by plane to Da Nang which took us about 2 hours.
As soon as I arrived, I could see the large and beautiful sea. And at that moment, I wanted to run quickly to the sea, enjoy the clear blue water and fresh air. The weather in Da Nang was wonderful. There were many people there who swim, bathe, play soccer, windsurf; the children built sandcastles on the sea.
My family and I went back to the hotel to put the luggage. Then we ate seafood together. The service here makes me very satisfied. The food was very fresh and deliciously cooked. After eating and resting, we went to the sea. I was immersed in the cool water and the waves. It was great! I also get to meet foreigners. They were tourists and they are very friendly. In the evening we go for a walk at the beach and sing karaoke together on the sand.
We stayed in Danang for 3 days. I also went to souvenir shops to buy gifts for my friends. When I got back home I was very happy and a little bit regretful because I couldn’t stay longer. This was the best summer vacation I’ve ever had.

In the life of every human being, we must always have friends who help us overcome difficulties and side by side when having fun and sad things. I am not an exception, there is also a close friend who always shares and helps me when I have difficulties. Kha - that's my best friend's name.
Kha this year is her age, also ten years old. Kha has white skin chicken eggs peeled and slim figure. When you come to class, you will be neatly dressed in a white uniform with black pants, and long hair will be neatly tied behind your neck. Kha has a plump face and talking eyes. Your eyes are big and sparkling with a smile always curved a crescent moon, it is knowing how to laugh, sharing every time you are sad and cheering whenever you have fun. The voice of Kha is as clear as the sound of a golden bird every morning, so don't assume that the voice will be sour. Because that voice is very inspiring and extremely attractive. Kha often tells us the ghost stories she knows, with an attractive thrilling voice, which always makes us scream every time we reach the climax. In exchange for a small laugh, it was the frightened face of our children.
Honestly, I did not Kha at first because people who were good at school and good at singing also sang well. Not only that, my parents are very arrogant in comparison with Kha, so I feel very frustrated and embarrassed because no child s to be compared to their friends by their parents, especially while the child He doesn't that girl anymore. And maybe I will still hate Kha so if it doesn't happen that time.
That day was a cold winter morning, every wind whistled in the window and made me tremble. Somehow, the afternoon before I was still healthy, I ran from the field to the end of the game playing a chase with my brother who got sick the next day. I was tired and opened my eyes wide, staring at the dark gray sky outside the doorway, thinking of a way to go to class without disturbing anyone. In the winter, I turned into a lazy sleeper, so I was always the one who woke up late. My parents often have breakfast with my brother and go to school and go to work as a child so I will have breakfast later and go to school myself. If not today, my brother's school will be volunteering, so I have to leave early, otherwise I will not let you go to school this. I was about to step down from the bed when I was headache, when I heard the sound of Hope coming from outside:
- Lan, you don't go now that you're late to learn!
I want to tell her loudly that I am sick but my words can't get out of my throat. Waiting for me to see no one responding, I saw that my house's light was on, and she entered the house curiously, not forgetting the sentence: "I beg your permission." Entering her room, she panicked and ran in, touching her face and touching her forehead:
- You have a fever, why don't you call me in, where are your parents, where is your brother?
- Dad ... mom ... I ... go to work. Also ... and my brother went to volunteer ... cough ..
- Have you eaten breakfast yet? Then there is a medicine in your house, so I'll just go and get it.
Looking at the form of its fever and anxiety, I was surprised, so long ago I thought that Kha did not me, but when I was sick, I was so worried. Naturally I feel I'm a bad friend, don't realize how good Kha is but just follow my own thoughts and hate you. I was embarrassed to receive help from you and was happy to have a good friend Kha. After cooking porridge for you to eat, you also help me take medicine and call for permission for both of us to take a break because taking care of you has made you late for school.
From that day on, Kha also went to the house to give lessons to me, so that I could catch up with my friends when I went back to school without the help of tutors or teachers. Although I used to play and neglect my homework but after the memory, I paid more attention and improved my score, so my teachers and my parents were very happy. It was all thanks to the devotion of Kha, the end of the first semester, and we were ranked in the top 10 of the class and praised by the teachers as a couple of friends!
I really love my best friend and hope that our friendship will also tighten over time so that I can save my childhood memories when I'm with friends and family.

Đề 1 :Hello everybody. Let me introduce myself. My name is .... I was born and raised in Minh Duc, Tu Ky, Hai Duong. I’m 27. I am a responsible and enthusias person. I am a primary teacher. I have now been a teacher for 5 years and am currently teaching at Van To primary school. I get/ (am) married and have a son. I love my family very much. In my freetime, I reading book, cooking and swimming. Swimming is not only my hobby, but also my favorite sport. That’s something about me.
Đề 2:From childhood, each person has a dream to pursue. To me, I want to be a teacher when I grow up. First, teacher has wide knowledge about many subjects so that she can make her best effort to teach student. As knowledge is power leading to success, no one can succeed without it. Second, being a teacher, one can learn from themselves, society and social relationship. A good teacher is the one who know how to balance virtues between teacher and student. Third, knowledge is limitless, being a teacher brings us higher job opportunities than other careers. Especially, human are leading a rapidly developing lifestyle, there is a large need of teachers for young generation. However, the benefits also come with drawback. Although it’s a good job, the teacher has to suffer from several stresses such as: score, teaching method, students and theirs parents. Therefore, patience, diligence and good qualification are thought to be 3 main key factors to become a good teacher. In near future, I hope to be an English teacher so that I can bring a popular foreign language to students at isolated areas. Since everyone are born fair, all the students have a right to go to school and learn from theirs friends, teachers. Despite the challenge of the job, I always choose to pursue my dream.
Đề 4 :
Vietnam is a tropical country. The climate is often hot and humid. In North Vietnam there are four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. It is hot in summer and it is very cold in winter. In South Vietnam there are only two seasons: the rainy season and the dry season. It rains a lot from May to November. In the dry season it is very hot. Sometimes there are storms in the North and floods in the South.
I love spring. Because the weather at that time is very nice. it’s breezy and mild. The landscapes are very beautiful. I love going out in spring to see sky. Sometimes, I take photographs and they’re so nice.

When I was 5 years old I had a pleasant experience. That was when my grandparents went home to play, so careless I got lost. At first I didn’t even know I was lost. I kept going straight until I got tired of my legs and couldn’t walk anymore. At that time I knew I was lost. At first I was so scared, I cried loudly and called my parents. Everyone passing by looked at me. But I’m thinking of kidnappers. Due to fear of being found lost, I immediately stopped crying. I go against the original direction. I stood at a convenience store and waited for my parents to come find me. The owner of the convenience store saw me standing there for a long time afraid I was hungry, so gave me a cake. By the evening my parents found me. Getting lost is scary but I find that after that time I have grown a lot. I also confidently handle unexpected situations better.

I always love to go out with my family, and going to Dam Sen theme park was one of my favorite event. We went there in the early in the morning to get the ket because it was weekend. Once we got inside the park, we started to follow the map to visit everywhere. First, we bought some snacks and drinks to eat on the way, then we sat down near the lake to have a small picnic. Next, we joined in the playground section to play many different interesting games. My sister, my father and I decided to went inside the haunted house while my mother stood outside. I screamed as loud as I could, and I ended up having a sore throat. Later we got on the roller coaster, the racing cars and rode the fake bulls. Most of the time my mother just stood outside and kept our belongings, but sometimes she also joined some easy games as well. We left the park in the evening, and it was such a great day to create memories with my family.

There are four people in my family: my parents, my younger sister and I. My father is a 45-year-old engineer. He spends most of his time in the building sites. That’s why he has a tanned skin. As soon as he comes home, he turns on the television to watch the news, relaxes for a while and then he takes a shower. In case my mother doesn’t cook for the dinner yet, my father is very happy to join hand and help her. Talk about my mother, she is a 40-year-old primary school teacher. In every morning, she is the one who wakes up earliest to prepare the breakfast, clothes and necessary things for my father, me and my sister. After we leave home to work or study, my mother will have a quick breakfast and drive to the primary school. After school, she runs fast to the market, buys some fresh food and backs to home to cook lunch. My father doesn’t come home in the noon so only three of us eat and talk to each other during lunch. However, the lunch is still prepared very scrupulous. In general, my mother is a gentel caring woman and sometimes she is very strict. I have a younger sister who will be 8 years old in the next October. My sister is pretty, docile and hard study. On every weekend, I take her to the park to have fun and we will buy some tasty ice creams. We quite close and sometimes she makes me very angry because of her negligent habit. The last person in my family is me. I am studying in the second year of Business Administration major at Hong Bang University. My schedule is changed frequently and I am also trying to get a scholarship to study abroad in Canada next year so I don’t spend much time to my family. But any time when I am free I try to help my mother in household chorces and take care of my sister. In my family, each person has a different responsibility but we always stand together to enjoy happiness moments, overcome the difficult time and solve the problems. I understand that there is nothing that is more important than my family. I love my parents and my lovely sister so much.
Dịch: Gia đình tôi gồm có 4 người: bố mẹ tôi, em gái tôi và tôi. Bố tôi là một kĩ sư xây dựng 45 tuổi. Hầu hết thời gian trong ngày ông ở công trường. Đó là lý do vì sao ông có làn da rám nắng. Ngay khi về đến nhà, ông ấy bật tivi lên để nghe thời sự, thư giãn và sau đó thì đi tắm. Trong trường hợp mẹ tôi vẫn chưa nấu xong bữa tối thì bố tôi sẽ rất vui vẻ để phụ một tay. Nói về mẹ tôi, bà ấy là một giáo viên tiểu học 40 tuổi. Vào mỗi buổi sáng, mẹ tôi luôn là người dậy sớm nhất để chuẩn bị bữa sáng, quần áo và những đồ dùng cần thiết cho bố con tôi. Sau khi chúng tôi đã rời khỏi nhà để đi làm hay đi học mẹ tôi mới dùng vội bữa sáng và chạy đến trường tiểu học. Sau khi tan trường mẹ tôi chạy thật nhanh đến chợ mua những thực phẩm tươi rồi về nhà nấu bữa trưa. Bố tôi không về nhà vào buổi trưa nên chỉ có ba mẹ con chúng tôi ăn uống và nói chuyện suốt bữa trưa. Dù vậy, bữa cơm vẫn được chuẩn bị rất chu đáo. Nói chung, mẹ tôi là một phụ nữ hiền lành đảm đang và đôi khi rất nghiêm khắc. Tôi có một em gái sẽ tròn 8 tuổi vào tháng 11 tới. Nó rất dễ thương, ngoan ngoãn và chăm chỉ học tập. Vào mỗi dịp cuối tuần tôi hay dẫn em đến công viên giải trí và đi ăn những cây kem tươi ngon. Chúng tôi khá thân thiết nhưng đôi khi nó làm tôi phát cáu bởi vì thói quen cẩu thả của mình. Người cuối cùng trong gia đình tôi chính là tôi. Tôi đang học năm thứ hai ngành Quản Trị Kinh Doanh tại đại học Hồng Bàng. Lịch học của tôi thường xuyên thay đổi và tôi đang cố để giành được học bổng du học Canada trong năm tới nên tôi không dành nhiều thời gian cho gia đình. Nhưng bất kì khi nào rảnh tôi luôn phụ mẹ công việc nhà và chăm sóc em gái. Trong gia đình tôi mỗi người đều có một trách nhiệm riêng nhưng chúng tôi luôn sát cánh bên nhau để tận hưởng những giây phút hạnh phúc, vượt qua thời gian khó khăn và cùng giải quyết vấn đề. Tôi hiểu rằng không có điều gì quan trọng hơn gia đình. Tôi yêu bố mẹ và cô em gái dễ thương rất nhiều.

Van Phuc Silk Village
During their stay in Hanoi, most tourists insist on a trip to Van Phuc Silk Village, the famous silk village of Hanoi to contemplate the genuine traditional silk-making industry.
Van Phuc Silk Village is situated on the banks of Nhue Thi River, Nguyen Trai Road, near Ha Dong city, 8 km southwest of Ha Noi. It takes you only 30 minutes by motorbike to go there from the centre of Hanoi.
The village has been much well known for its traditional sericulture, weaving, and silk products. Tourists coming here are lured by various beautiful shirts, crafts, ties, dresses and many other things made of silk available in the village. What is special is that the silk is made by very simple looms, which is the genuinely traditional Vietnamese way of making silk.
or centuries, silk has always been considered an extreme luxury, on par with rhinoceros horn, ivory and precious handworks in Vietnam.
It has long been a universal byword of luxury, often worn by the richest, most powerful citizens.
Most visitors somehow have heard about the significant role of this kind of material in Vietnam, yet might wonder where the cradle of Viet silk is. The mentioned Van Phuc Silk Village is proud to be the origin of best silk and silk-making industry of Vietnam, which is attached to a long-lasting history of more than two thousand years.
Though passing by lots of ups and downs, during the recent years, the village’s craft has enjoyed revival due to a surging demand for silk in both the domestic and foreign markets.
Today, the fine and lustrous cloth that originates from the cocoon of the silkworm is more affordable for “ordinary” folk.
Furthermore, silk is currently enjoying a fashion renaissance, particularly since its many varieties can be made into a wide range of designs suitable for all facets of modern life. Should you intend to have a silk pair of formal clothes made, just come here and select your suitable materials, and professional tailors here will bring you satisfaction!
Like other visitors to the village, you will be surprised at this “silk shop town”, where almost all houses along the paths have been turned into shops selling silk products. Specifically, the village is now home to 1,280 households, 90% of whom are involved in silk production and business.
The village makes more than 2 million meters of silk per year. Yet, more than that, you are offered a good chance to explore the Vietnamese traditional industry of silk-making.
No tourists here are uncontested with the glisten of various silk products. They are always confronted with an initially bewildering array of silk products, from raw materials, to garments, and a myriad of silk accessories.
The local silk is known for its smooth and lightweight appearance, and qualities that enable it to be dyed more colors to suit a variety of skin tones.
In order to cater for the changing demands and tastes of customers, Van Phuc silk producers are expanding their silk and garment repertoire: traditional glossy, embroidered silks, double layers, wrinkled silks, and of course, more colors, hues and weights, for which they have invented new techniques in dying and thermo-processing the threads.
If you are going to buy something from Vietnam as gifts for those at home, silk and clothes made of silk are available around in the village for your choice. Though the days when Vietnam’s silk was reserved for nobility are long gone, what would never change is the sense of romance and luxury imparted by silk, a luminous cloth type. With 2000 years of history behind them, the silk weavers of Van Phuc Silk village are still busy, weaving dreams.
With a view to reaching Van Phuc village, tourists should travel south west out of Ha Noi on Nguyen Trai Street until they reach the border of Ha Dong District. Then turn right and dive for about 3km. The village is on the left, some 8 km from central Hanoi. Motorbike, bus, or taxis are all of good use.
