1.

Which town or city do you living now

Currently, I'm living in HaNoi, the capital city of VietNam. However, i don't live in the city centre, which
quite crowded and noisy. Instead, i live in the suburbs, which is well-known for the Northern Culture,
especially marionette puppetry. The area where i live is mountainous, with vast rice field, and the local
food is absolutely delicious.

2. - Are there any things you don’t like about your area? (What are they?)

What i don't enjoy about living here is that it can be a bit isolated. Like i say it is located in the suburbs,
so public transport options such as highway trail or bus is quite limited. I often have to call a taxi or ride
my own motorbike to get around, and it can be annoyed when i go far away into the centre.

3. Do you think you will continue to live there for a long time? (Why? Why not?)

Yah, to be honest, I’m not sure. I love the quiet, the people, and the peaceful nature of this area. Maybe
the cost of living is lower compared to the city center, but I might consider moving somewhere more
convenient and bustling to build my career in the long run

4.What are some changes in the area recently?

Recently, many facilities have been installed in my area to serve a large number of visitors. Many new
apartments, hotels, and restaurants have opened up, which has gradually made the neighborhood more
vibrant and noisy.
5. Do you live in a house or an apartment?
For sure, I live in a house with my family, which was designed by my father five years ago. It has four
bedrooms and a big garden in front of the house, where my mom can plant some vegetables and raise
some chickens. It feels cozy and comfortable for me when I come home after a long journey.
6. What is your favourite room in your home? (Why?)
For sure, I love my bedroom for most. I decorated this room follow the minimalism style, which just the
white painting wall / I also put my personal computer and a table in there so I can working on my job,
chatting with my fellows or enjoy a good book. Additionally, it’s a quite place, where I start and end my
day, escape the hustle and bustle of daily life.
7. What things make your home pleasant to live in?
There is no doubt that my mother plays an important role in making our home pleasant. She is kind and
hilarious, always making jokes that make me and my sisters laugh out loud. Another thing is that my
mother’s cooking is so savory, as delicious as a professional chef’s. I really respect my mom for
everything she does.

Yes, of course! My neighbors are our relatives, as we belong to the same Nguyễn clan. They are kind
and helpful, and sometimes they invite me to have dinner together or share their fruits and vegetables.

Yeah, it is sure that I know all my neighbours, as we are relatives, as we belong to the same Nguyễn
Clan. "They have been here for many generations, mainly working in farming and raising livestock as
their main source of income. Because of that, they often have plenty of fruits in their home. I love
visiting them because every time, I get to enjoy things like pomelos, apples, and betel nuts. It’s really
delicious."

10. Is the place where you live quiet or noisy?

Like I said, I live on the outskirts of Hanoi, away from the hustle and bustle of a metropolitan area. The
surroundings are mostly green hills, vast rice fields, and dense forests, which make it peaceful and
serene. Traffic is hardly seen here, as local people often use bikes or walk to reach their destinations.
The sounds of nature, like birds chirping, are more overwhelming than the honking of vehicles.

mathematics

and take breaks easily, get some snack to renew my energy, speedly come back to do the tasks.

2Do you prefer to study at home or in the library? ( Why?)

If I have the choices between study at home and in the library, I actually enjoy studying in the library

motivate me to stay on track. Also, the library has fewer distractions, making it easier for me to highly
concentrate on my work."

with friends and talk about soccers and games. I also appreciate the comfortable seating and the chance
to relax with my friends over a meal."

4 What do you find most interesting about your studies? (Why?)

What I find most interesting about my studies is how theoretical concepts connect to real-world
applications. For example, in physics, learning about combustion and engine is fascinating because I can
actually see it actually apply in a car. It’s rewarding and valuable and satisfied to understand the science
behind things we use in daily day.

5 Which is more important to you—the teachers or the other students on your course?
To me, the teachers are more important because they’re the ones who guide us and ensure we have a
strong foundation in each subject. A good teacher can make even the most difficult topics become more
understandable, which is crucial for my study. Their experience and knowledge provide direction that
helps me learn more effectively which our friends maybe lack the accuration and clear

(Why?)
6 How much time do you spend studying every week?

can absorb more data and keep the low stress level.

Like I say I live in the outskirt of Ha Noi, so I usually ride motorbike to go study cause it allow me to
move anywhere I want . Another reasons is that it can easily navigate through the traffic jam in the rush
hour which I think very time-consuming.

8 Do you study best in the morning or the afternoon? (Why?)

"I study best in the morning. I find that my mind is sober and more focused after a good night's sleep,
which helps me absorb information better and faster. The morning hours are also less distracting and
energetic, so I can work productively and tackle more challenging task."

9 Have you always wanted to study this subject/ these subjects (Why/ Why not?).
Yeas of course I really enjoy physics, cause I can learning about combustion and engine of the cars,

day

vehicle for daily day, especially for short distances.

event, it isn’t suitable.

cousins.

allow them across the road
