Vietnam is not only famous for its history and street food but also for its amazing natural wonders. These places, including mountains, caves, and beaches, attract millions of visitors every year.  these areas helps people understand more about nature and the importance of preserving it.

One of the most famous places is Ha Long Bay in northern Vietnam. It is known for its tall limestone islands that rise from the sea. Formed over millions of years and shaped by nature, these islands are both beautiful and mysterious. What surprises many visitors is the legend behind them—some believe dragons created the rocks to protect Vietnam  invaders. Ha Long Bay is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which shows its global importance.

 some parts of the bay are crowded with tourists, there are still peaceful spots where visitors can enjoy the scenery. In central Vietnam, Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park is another natural wonder. It is home to a number of huge caves, including Son Doong, which is the largest cave in the world  scientists have fully explored. Discovered by a local man and later studied by researchers, the cave has rivers, forests, and even its own climate inside.

In the south, the Mekong Delta offers a different kind of beauty. The area is full of rivers and canals, where people sell fruits and goods from boats. In places like Cai Rang or Phong Dien, you can find a bunch of colorful floating markets, which attract  locals and tourists. These markets show  closely people live with nature in this part of the country.

 to buildings and cities, natural wonders offer something deeper. They not only bring joy and peace, but also help us learn about the planet. As eco-tourism becomes more popular, taking care of these places while enjoying them becomes even more .

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

In today's world, technology plays a major role in teenagers' lives. Smartphones, social media, and online games are now a regular part of daily routines. These tools help young people stay connected, learn new things, and express themselves creatively. However, there are also concerns about how too much technology – especially when used at night – can affect their health and development. It is important for parents to understand both the benefits and the risks of digital life.

One key issue is sleep deprivation. Children need about 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night to grow, stay healthy, and concentrate well in school. Unfortunately, many teens use electronic devices right before bed and even keep them close while sleeping. Studies show that the blue light from screens can make it harder to fall asleep and reduce sleep quality. Lack of sleep can lead to poor academic performance, mood swings, and even mental health problems.

Cyberbullying is another serious risk. Many teens experience online bullying through messages, social media, or group chats. These incidents often happen late at night, when parents are unaware. Victims of cyberbullying may feel anxious, depressed, or isolated. In some cases, it can have long-term effects on their confidence and emotional health.

Teens also face exposure to inappropriate content. The internet makes it easy to access violent images, hate speech, or adult material – sometimes by accident. Even though not all teens are affected the same way, repeated exposure to harmful content can change their behaviour, beliefs, or mental health.

Technology addiction is becoming more common. Many teens feel the urge to check their phones constantly, fearing they will miss out on something. This habit can grow into compulsive behaviour, which disrupts daily routines and creates stress or anxiety.

So, what can parents do? Experts suggest a few useful strategies. One approach involves creating clear rules, such as having phones kept out of the bedroom at night or setting specific times during the day when screens are not used, like at meals. Open communication between parents and teenagers is also seen as important. Parents may benefit from asking their teens about their online activities and making an effort to listen with understanding, rather than judgment. Another helpful method is setting a good example, as teenagers often learn from the behavior of adults around them. It can also be valuable to provide opportunities for offline activities, including sports, creative hobbies, or quality time with friends and family.

Technology can be a powerful tool – but only when used wisely. By staying involved and supportive, parents can help teenagers build a healthy, balanced digital life.
