    2) Read Mi's presentation on customs and traditions. Is she writing about her family or her society?

    In my opinion, customs and traditions are very important. Like other families, we have our own customs and traditions.

    A Firstly, there’s a tradition in our family of having lunch together on the second day of Tet. Everyone has to be there before 11 a.m. We have followed this tradition for three generations.

    B Secondly, we have the custom of spending Sunday together. We usually go to the cinema or go for a picnic. We don’t have to do it, but it makes us closer as a family.

    C Thirdly, we celebrate our grandparents’ wedding anniversary on the first Sunday of October because they don’t remember the exact date. The custom is that we have to cook a new dish each year. Last year, my mum cooked lasagne, an Italian dish. This year, we prepared five-coloured sticky rice served with grilled chicken. We all enjoy these customs and traditions because they provide our family with a sense of belonging.
