II. WHILE-READING

Last Saturday the representatives of three classes of my school took part in the annual final English Competition organized by our English teachers. Its aims was to stimulate the spirit of learning English among the students. The competition was sponsored by the Students’ Parents Society. Mrs. Lien, our English teacher, explained the competition’s rules to the students.
“…To participate in the contest, you have to work in groups of three. Each group must complete five activities in all. On competition of each activity, you will have to answer the questions on the worksheets within two minutes. The judges will observe and score your performance. The maximum score for each activity is 15 points. At the end of the competition, the judges will announce the total score of each group. The group that gets the highest score will be the winner. The winner will be awarded a set of CDs for studying English and an Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary. Now, let’s start our competition.”
Hung, Thu and Nga were the members of Group A. They quickly read the questions and tried to find out the answers. At first, things went smoothly. They almost completed the five activities. But in Activity 5, Hung had difficulty reciting the poem. He could not remember the last sentence. Time was up, and the judges announced the results. The winner was group B, which got 70 points; Hung’s group got 65 points; and group C got 60. Thu felt a bit disappointed. Hung apologized for not being able to complete the poem. But Nga made it better by saying “ For me the most important thing was our participation in the competition and the enjoyment we had from it.”

When the clouds all go away?

Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright
Do you like it in the day
When the clouds all go away?
Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright?
Bạn có thích bầu trời ban đêm
Khi ngàn vì sao đang lấp lánh
Do you like it in the day
When the clouds all go away?
Bạn có thích bầu trời ban ngày
Khi những đám mây bay đi


What I like is the morning sun
Shining on me when I run

Cũn tụi yờu n?ng s?m ban mai
T?a ỏnh sỏng khi tụi ch?y
And I also like the rain
Pattering on my windowpane
Và tôi cũng yêu những cơn mưa
Gõ từng nhịp bên khung cửa sổ
