Exercise 6. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer marked A, B C or D for each question.

The lifestyle in Bangkok is quite different. I think that living in Bangkok is very exciting. I haven’t lived here all my life. My family came here when I was three. But now it is my home. Nearly all my friends live here. It is our capital city, and very big. From morning till night there are crowds of people on the main streets. Some parts of the city are very noisy. I have a long journey to school every day, but I don’t mind because it is so interesting. There’s always something happening in the streets. There are all kinds of people selling things – fruits, flowers, cooked food, clothes, - everything you could imagine. I really enjoy the excitement of the crowded streets and large modern buildings. I love walking around the streets at the weekend with some other boys from my class.

Tạm dịch:

Lối sống ở Bangkok khá khác biệt. Tôi nghĩ rằng cuộc sống ở Bangkok rất thú vị. Tôi đã không sống ở đây cả đời. Gia đình tôi đến đây khi tôi lên ba. Nhưng bây giờ nó là nhà của tôi. Gần như tất cả bạn bè của tôi đều sống ở đây. Đây là thủ đô của chúng tôi và nó rất rộng lớn. Từ sáng đến tối, người dân tập trung đông đúc trên các đường phố chính. Một số khu vực của thành phố rất đông đúc. Mỗi ngày tôi đều có một chặng đường dài đến trường nhưng tôi không bận tâm vì nó rất thú vị. Luôn có điều gì đó diễn ra trên đường phố. Có đủ loại người bán mọi thứ - trái cây, hoa, đồ ăn nấu chín, quần áo - mọi thứ mà bạn có thể tưởng tượng ra. Tôi thực sự thích thú với sự sôi động của những con phố đông đúc và những tòa nhà lớn hiện đại. Tôi thích đi dạo phố vào cuối tuần với một số bạn nam khác trong lớp.
