Paragraph 1 (about 100–120 words): The most pleasant experience

The most pleasant experience I have ever had was a family trip to Da Nang last summer. It happened during my summer holiday, when my parents wanted us to relax after a long school year. I was with my parents and my younger sister. We visited the beach early in the morning, swam in the clear blue sea, and enjoyed delicious seafood together. In the evening, we walked along the beach and talked happily. This experience made me feel relaxed and joyful because I could spend quality time with my family without worrying about homework or exams. I still remember it clearly because it helped me understand how important family time is.

Paragraph 2 (about 120–150 words): My favourite traditional Vietnamese food

My favourite traditional Vietnamese food is pho, a famous noodle soup in Vietnam. People usually eat pho for breakfast, but it can also be enjoyed at any time of the day. Pho looks simple but very attractive, with soft rice noodles, slices of beef or chicken, green onions, and fragrant herbs in a clear, hot broth. It tastes delicious, light, and slightly sweet from the bones used to cook the soup. I first tried pho when I was very young, and my mother often taught me how to enjoy it with lime, chili, and herbs. I love pho because it is not only tasty but also represents Vietnamese culture. Whenever I eat pho, I feel warm, comfortable, and proud of my country’s traditional food.
