Wherever you go these days, everyone is talking about Ophelia. Her photo is on every
billboard, her songs are playing in every shop. Our reporter, Jane Wilkes, met her in a
café in London.
Jane: So, Ophelia, it’s really nice to meet you. Is that your real name, by the way?
Ophelia: Yes, I’m afraid it is. Of course, everyone knows Ophelia is a character in a
play by Shakespeare. My parents loved the name, so now it’s mine too.
Jane: Hm. Ophelia is a tragic character in the play, but things seem to be going well for
you since you became famous suddenly last year.
Ophelia: Yes, the last year has been incredible. I was singing in my school show when
a famous theatre director heard me. I was invited to go to an audition for a part in a big
musical in London.
Jane: Yes. And when people heard you sing at the premiere, all the tickets for the
show were sold out in two days!
Ophelia: It was amazing. When the show finished, I started working on my own songs,
and my CD came out before Christmas. Apparently, a million copies have been sold
already.
Jane: And I believe you’re working on a book about your life – so far!
Ophelia: Yes, I am. It’s crazy. I’m only nineteen, and my mother asked me: ‘What is
there to say about someone so young?’ But I was asked to do it, and I’m working with
a very good writer, so I hope my fans won’t be disappointed.
Jane: So your biography will be published in June.

Trả lời:
Dear my friend!
I write a letter to tell you about my country’s origins. Under the reign of the sixth Hung
King, a 60-year-old woman lived in Phu Dong village or Bac Ninh province today. One
day, she found a huge footprint in the field. Her curiosity got the better of her and she
set foot in this footprint. She became pregnant on her way home. She gave birth to a
son and named him Giong. Giong was an interesting child. Even at three years old, he
could not speak. At that time, the northern country wanted to occupy Vietnam. Giong
suddenly asked his mother to invite the messenger into their home. After the
messenger told the king of Giong, he brought the iron horse and sword to Giong’s
house. Giong rode the iron horse to battle and used the iron sword to kill the
aggressor. After defeating the aggressor, Giong rode the iron horse straight to the sky.
The legend has been made up to encourage everybody about the patriotism and the
valiant to save our country. I think this story can help you finish the school project.
All the best.
Nguyen Tuong
