Nội dung bài nghe:

Dear Tom,

Tet is coming and I’m very happy. We do a lot of things before Tet. We throw some old things away. We clean and decorate our homes. My mother goes shopping and buys food, red envelopes, and peach flowers. She also buys new clothes for us. My father makes banh chung and cooks them on an open fire. He says that I should make some wishes at Tet, and I shouldn’t break anything. It brings bad luck.

Yours

Nguyen

Dear Tom,

Tet is coming. I will tell you more about our Tet.

At Tet, we should visit relatives with parents. We should, wear beautifful clothes too. But we shouldn’t break things. We shouldn’t play cards all night, either.

Please write and tell me about your New Year celebration.

Yours,
