DESCRIBE THE BEST PRESENT YOU HAVE RECEIVED

 Describe the best present you have received 



Well! Over the years, I've received many gifts in different occasions from many people. However, today I' like to talk about the greatest present, a motorbike. My father bought me that bike on my twenty first birthday. 

When I was a high school student, my school was far from my house. I still remember how exhausted I was after riding back home by my old bike in the scorching weather. I was jealous of my friends who had their parents bought them a motorbike. I always had to ask for a lift and that bothered me much. It had been more inconvenient since I arrived in HCM city for my study. During three years at the university, I lost a lot of hobbies. I couldn't participate in the clubs or outdoor activities that I liked just because I didn't have personal vehicle. It was nearly impossible to go to everywhere I wanted by public transport.  Thus, owning a motorbike became the my only dream. (Không thể dùng "the only dream of me). As I know that my parents wouldn't be able to buy me a motorbike at that time, I didn't ask them for one. 
However, fortune finally smiled on me. On my 21st birthday, my father told me that he wanted to take me to a motorbike shop and purchase one for me. I was so happy that at that night it was tough for me to sleep. He bought me a Honda Wave Alpha - a reputable brand from Japan. It was not as expensive as my friend, at least it fitted my needs. It was white, small and light weight. The model of this line was suitable for female students. While returning home, I felt myself like flying in joy. Everyday, after work, I got around by it without any reason.
It was a long expected gift that my father gave me and till now it is the best present that I've ever had.

WHICH ONE DO YOU CHOOSE? LIVING IN A BIG CITY OR IN THE COUNTRY? WHY?

 It's my honor to stand here presenting about my choice between living in a city or in a countryside. Although I was grown up in a countryside, I prefer living in an urban area. At the age of 22, like other young people, I'm fascinated with the glory of the magnificent city. I was attracted to the grandeur of building, the fantastic public transport system and the modern infrastructure for the first time I came to HCM city. They're things that I can't find in my hometown.  In addition, one of the most important things that make me choose living in the city is the medical care and service. Living in an urban area allows us to get help in the major medical institute and service. Getting help in the city can occur more quickly and even more specialized. Because of the lack of the high quality health care service, the citizens living in the rural area always spend much time and money on arriving in big city to meet the doctor. It's inconvenient if someone is so sick tha...
