(Đọc cuộc phỏng vấn. Sarin có đề xuất Chương trình Sinh viên Quốc tế ASEAN không?)

1. yes

2. no

 

ASEAN Student Spotlight Magazine interviewed Sarin. She’s a computer science graduate from Cambodia. She recently returned home from a year on an international study program in Hanoi.

ASSM: Welcome home Sarin! How does it feel to be back?

Sarin: It’s so good to be back. I had a great time in Vietnam, but I’m happy to be home.

ASSM: Tell me about your year in Vietnam.

Sarin: I went there on a scholarship to the ASEAN International Students Program. It was such a great program. I studied in English in a new environment. I didn’t know much about Vietnam before I arrived, but I learned a lot about the people and the culture. Vietnamese people are friendly, and the food is so delicious!

ASSM: What made you decide to study in an ASEAN country?

Sarin: Well, at first I wanted to study in Sydney, but Australia is so far from home. Then, my teacher told me about the ASEAN International Students Program. I found out that there are many good international universities within ASEAN. Staying within ASEAN is much closer to home, and it’s cheaper, too. Being an international student in Vietnam has given me great opportunities. My degree will help me get a good job.

ASSM: So, would you recommend the international student program?

Sarin: Yes. It was such a great experience, and I made some great new friends. Before I went there, I was nervous about living in a foreign city. Now, I can’t wait to visit Hanoi again next year!

Tạm dịch:

Tạp chí ASEAN Student Spotlight đã phỏng vấn Sarin. Cô ấy tốt nghiệp ngành khoa học máy tính từ Campuchia. Cô vừa trở về nhà sau một năm theo học chương trình quốc tế tại Hà Nội.

ASSM: Chào mừng Sarin về nhà! Bạn cảm thấy thế nào khi được trở về?

Sarin: Thật tốt khi được trở về. Tôi đã có một thời gian tuyệt vời ở Việt Nam, nhưng tôi rất vui khi được về nhà.

ASSM: Hãy kể cho tôi nghe về một năm của bạn ở Việt Nam.

Sarin: Tôi đến đó nhờ học bổng của Chương trình Sinh viên Quốc tế ASEAN. Đó là một chương trình tuyệt vời. Tôi đã học tiếng Anh trong một môi trường mới. Tôi đã không biết nhiều về Việt Nam trước khi đến, nhưng tôi đã học được rất nhiều về con người và văn hóa nơi đây. Người Việt Nam rất thân thiện và đồ ăn rất ngon!

ASSM: Điều gì khiến bạn quyết định học tập tại một quốc gia ASEAN?

Sarin: Chà, lúc đầu tôi muốn học ở Sydney, nhưng Úc rất xa nhà. Sau đó, giáo viên của tôi nói với tôi về Chương trình Sinh viên Quốc tế ASEAN. Tôi phát hiện ra rằng có rất nhiều trường đại học quốc tế tốt trong ASEAN. Ở ASEAN thì gần nhà hơn nhiều và cũng rẻ hơn. Là một sinh viên quốc tế tại Việt Nam đã cho tôi những cơ hội tốt. Bằng cấp của tôi sẽ giúp tôi có được một công việc tốt.

ASSM: Vậy, bạn có muốn giới thiệu chương trình sinh viên quốc tế không?

Sarin: Có chứ. Đó là một trải nghiệm tuyệt vời, và tôi đã kết bạn với một số người bạn mới rất tốt. Trước khi tôi đến đó, tôi đã lo lắng về việc sống ở một thành phố xa lạ. Bây giờ, tôi rất nóng lòng được đến thăm Hà Nội vào năm tới!

Lunar New Year is a time for them to honour ancestors, get together with family and friends, have a big family meal, and wish one another prosperity for the year to come. The streets and houses are decorated, and fireworks are lit to scare away bad luck. There are also parades, street parties, and art performances in the new year celebrations.

People in Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar celebrate the arrival of the New Year according to the Buddhist calendar. Their New Year's celebrations are in April. People in these countries follow traditions such as offering rice to Buddhist monks to show their respect and receiving wishes for good luck and health from them. They decorate their homes, cook traditional dishes, and splash each other with water. There are also art performances, folk games, and dancing.

In these cultures, it is believed that water will wash away bad luck and ill health from the old year and allow people to start the new year fresh.

ASSM: So, do you think you would recommend the ASEAN International Student Program?

Subject: ASEAN STUDENT SUMMER CAMP

I'm Sengphet, your supervisor for this year's ASEAN Student Summer Camp in Lace. I'd like to give you some information about the camp.

On the first day you'll fly to Vientiane and travel to Vang Vieng. This is where we'll stay during the camp. We'll go by bus, and it should take about four hours.

The next clay you'll meet the other camp member. Sixty ASEAN students have signed up this year. Then, we'll visit Wat Kang, a beautiful temple.  It's a short walk from our accommodation. You can see golden Buddha statues there. Later, we'll explore Tham Xang, the elephant cave. People visit to pray for good health!

On Day 3, you'll learn to cook larb, our national dish. It's a salad made with beef.  It's delicious. After that, you'll learn how to say or "hello" in our Lao language class.

Day 4 will be a day you'll never forget! We will join Boun Bang Fai, the Rocket Festival! Before the rainy season, locals fire huge rockets into the sky to encourage the rains to fall. It's incredible!

The last day will have the camp closing ceremony, and you'll return home to Vietnam.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hanoi – A Cultural Explosion!

Hello fellow travellers! I just got back from a culture-packed day tour of Hanoi. City Break was our tour company and showed us so much of what Hanoi has to offer.

Our first stop was one of the most popular tourist attractions in Hanoi, the Temple of Literature, which was Vietnam's first national university. King Lý Thánh Tông had the temple complex built in 1070 CE. I really enjoyed walking around the traditional Vietnamese architecture, beautiful gardens and lakes. The site shows how important learning and wisdom are in Vietnamese culture. The whole temple complex was a great history lesson!

Next, our guide, Trung, took us to Hanoi Botanical Garden for an escape from the crowded city. We enjoyed a picnic near a beautiful lake in the garden. The next stop was the One Pillar Pagoda for lots of pictures. Located in the middle of a peaceful pond, this traditional temple was so beautiful. Trung explained that this pagoda is a symbol of Hanoi and a place of worship. Pagodas are popular in Vietnam as they are usually important temples of worship.

Our final stop on the tour was the Old Quarter, a busy shopping area. We walked around the shops that sell handmade items at great prices. After shopping, Trung introduced us to the delicious flavours of Vietnamese street food as we tasted unusual dishes from the street stalls. This was definitely my favourite part. Make sure to go with an empty stomach, though! It was a great day and I highly recommend touring Hanoi with City Break!

Come Visit the BATU Caves of Malaysia!

Get ready to enjoy this magical place right in the heart of Malaysia. These incredible limestone caves are inside a massive hill and are the home of many Hindu temples that honour the Hindu god Lord Murugan. The Malay word batu means 'rock' and this is one huge rock! Be prepared to climb up 272 colourful steps to the top cave temple. It is like walking on a giant rainbow!

The History of the Caves

The series of caves are about 400 million years old. Local tribes once used them as shelters. In 1890, a leader of the Indian community created a temple to Lord Murugan within the caves. Today, there are many temples with statues of Hindu gods.

Meet the Monkeys!

On the way up, you may meet some new animal friends. The Batu Cave monkeys are everywhere and cheeky, and perhaps grab a snack from a friendly tourist.

The Temples

With 140 feet, the statue of the Hindu god Lord Murugan guards the entrance of the caves. Wrapped in gold with his mighty spear, the statue is quite a site! Inside the caves, there are various temples that honour Hindu gods. There is even a museum and art gallery cave full of Hindu paintings and statues. Visitors can explore the peaceful and beautifully lit caves of this magical underground world for hours.

Visitor Tips

If you plan to spend a few hours at this tourist site, don't forget plenty of suncream and comfortable walking shoes. Food and water are available outside the cave entrance.

1. The caves are on top of a very high hill.   

2. In the past, the caves were homes for people.

3. The Batu Cave monkeys want food from visitors.

4. All the temples are for the god Lord Murugan.

3. What is required if a person wants to help underprivileged children?

 

STUDENT B

1. What are some purposes of ASEAN mentioned in Text A?

2. What do children benefit from the joining hands of ASEAN Member States?

Text A

ASEAN, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, was established in 1967. Among many purposes, it aims to facilitate the economic development and sociocultural integration of its members. Since 1990s, with the joining hands of ASEAN Member States, child poverty has dramatically decreased. There have also been advances in healthcare, access to clean water, and hygiene standards for children. More children are attending primary and secondary school and have access to technology and the Internet. Countries in the region also do their best to protect their children from violence and child abuse.

Text B

Despite recent progress in improving children's general well-being in Southeast Asia, there's a lot more you can do to help underprivileged children in this region. You can come to Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines, Thailand, Việt Nam, or other countries and reach out to the needy children. Helping a young child learn a new skill gives them more opportunities in the future. As a volunteer, you can help them in a variety of settings, including community centres, after-school programs, and food programs. Most programs don't require prior experience, so all you need is just a helping hand and a kind heart!

Languages

India has many different cultures and people speak over 1,600 languages and dialects there.

In India, religion is very important. India is the home of two major world religions: Hinduism and Buddhism. Nearly 80% of the population of India practise Hinduism, but today only 0.8% of the population practise Buddhism. Another important religion is Islam - about 14% of Indians are Muslims. In fact, India has the second largest population of Muslims in the world after Indonesia.
