MY VILLAGE
I live in a village by Mekong River. Every day, like most of my friends, I walk to school. It

is three kilometers away. After class, I often help my mother to collect water from the
river and feed the chickens. At the weekend, the villagers often gather at the community
hall where there is a TV. The adults watch TV, but more often they talk about their farm
work and exchange news. The children run around, playing games and shouting merrily.
Laughter is heard everywhere.


My father sometimes takes me to the market town nearby where he sells our home
products like vegetables, fruits, eggs… He then buys me an ice cream and lets me take a
ride on the electric train in the town square. I love those trips.
On starry nights, children lie on the grass, looking at the sky and daring each other to
find the Milky Way. We dream of faraway places.
Answer the following questions.
1/ Does the boy like riding on the electric train in the town square?
