Audio script:
Last summer holiday my family went back to the UK and we went to a music festival on the Isle of Wight. It
is one of the most famous music festivals in our country, which takes place every June. When we got there, I
was impressed by the huge number of people. You know about sixty thousand people went to the event. We
didn’t stay at a hotel but put up a tent in the camp site. It was lots of fun. We listened to a lot of songs by
many bands such as The Killers and The Stone Roses. Guess what? We met Jon Bon Jovi! He’s my dad’s
favourite singer. He and his band stirred up the crowd in nearly three hours with the hit songs. We also went
to the Bohemian Woods, a beautiful woodland down by the river. There we enjoyed a mix of good music
from around the world and escaped the busy and noisy festival for a white.
Dịch Script:
Mùa hè năm ngoái, gia đình tôi trở về Anh và chúng tôi đến một lễ hội âm nhạc trên đảo Wight. Đây là một
trong những lễ hội âm nhạc nổi tiếng nhất trong nước, diễn ra vào tháng 6 hàng năm. Khi chúng tôi đến đó,
tôi đã rất ấn tượng với số lượng người khổng lồ. Bạn biết khoảng sáu mươi nghìn người đã tham dự sự kiện
này. Chúng tôi đã không ở tại một khách sạn nhưng ở tại một cái lều trong khu cắm trại. Đó là rất nhiều
niềm vui. Chúng tôi đã nghe rất nhiều bài hát của nhiều ban nhạc như The Killers và The Stone Roses. Đoán
cái gì? Chúng tôi đã gặp Jon Bon Jovi! Anh ấy là ca sĩ yêu thích của cha tôi, anh ấy và ban nhạc của anh ấy
đã khuấy động đám đông trong gần ba tiếng đồng hồ với những bài hát nổi tiếng. Chúng tôi cũng đã đi đến
Rừng Bohemian, một khu rừng tuyệt đẹp bên bờ sông. Ở đó, chúng tôi thưởng thức một buổi hòa nhạc hay
từ khắp nơi trên thế giới và thoát khỏi lễ hội bận rộn và ồn ào cho một màu trắng.

1st, 2010 to October 10th 2010. I saw lots of of fireworks, parties, parades during these days. It was
interesting. I took so many pictures on this festival because there were plenty of beautiful scences. We
organized this great festival to celebrate the 1000th anniversary of Thang Long – Hanoi.
Model 2:
The festival I attended last year is the Buffalo Fighting. It is annually held in Do Son – Hai Phong on the 9th
day of the 8th lunar month. The most typical reason for the buffalo fighting festival is to express the martial
spirit of the local people in Do Son, Hai Phong. The festival is attached to Water God worshipinng
ceremony and the “Hien Sinh” custom.
The festival starts with the worshiping ceremony. After that, 16 buffaloes and their owners are ready for the
final. Each round, one pair of buffaloes is led to opposite sides of the festival rounds then they rush into each
other. Each couple of the buffaloes will fight three times to find the winner. The thing that I like most in this
festival is the exciting atmosphere from the spectators. It is more than watching a football match between
two famous teams.
Model 3:

Last year I attended a very large festival in Nui Sam – Chau Doc city, An Giang province. The great festival
is held annually by the Temple Committee. From the 23th to the 27th of the forth lunar month, the locals and
people around the country gather to take part in the event to honor a Holy Protector Goddess called “ Ba
Chua Xu” with the hope that she would bring them greater crops as well as happier and wealthier lives.
During the festival days, many traditional, cultural and religious activities and dances are organized.
Especially on the 25th night, the most sacred ritual (“bathing” the Goddess) take place. After that
worshippers touch the Goddess and ask her for protection and blessing.
