5: One of interesting experience i have ever had was visiting the Ha Long Bay – one of te most
beautyful natural wonders in the world. I went there with my family on a cruise tour. We enjoyed the
view of the bay from the desk of the boat , as well as kayaking , swimming , snookerling. The food on
the cruise was dilicious and fresh . We also learned about the history and culture of the bay from our

bay is truly a magical place that everyone should visit at least one time in their life .

have a sily plot that i can not understand.

- Increased aggressive and violent behavior, especially among boys

similarities and differences

Both children and adults can become more aggressive after watching violent mediabut the degree and
duration of these effects may vary depending on the individual’s age, personality.

-Children are more vulnerable to the influence of violent media because their brains are still
developing
-Adults may have more experience and knowledge to cope with violent media

Unit 3
1: there are 3 factors i think are most important to me when chosing a hotel

- location : the hotel Should be near the city center It's convenient for shopping and
sightseeing. I can walk or travel by public transport.
- Price: the price should be suitable for students because we don’t have too
much money .
- Food : i need the food at my restaurant to be good beacuse i’ve been out all
day so i want to enjoy my dinner at the hotel .

- 2 Service : I want a hotel have some service i need

+ i usually stay up late to work or play video games so wake up service is important to
me beacause i don’t want to miss out on my daily activities
+ room service : because i often stay up late so i can be hungry or thirsty so room service
is important for me .

3 i Think the best way to get information about a hotel is from readinng reviews fromn
other guest Because I can get the most objective review of what they have experienced
at the hotel
