Topic 1: 

Many animals are endangered because of deforestation, pollution, and hunting. To protect them, we should stop cutting down too many trees because forests are home to many species. People must also stop hunting rare animals for their skin, horns, or meat. Another way to help is by keeping rivers and oceans clean so that marine animals can survive. Governments should create more national parks where animals can live safely. We can also support wildlife organizations by donating money or learning about endangered species. Everyone should work together to protect these animals, so they do not disappear from our planet.

In Vietnam, floods are a common problem, especially when it rains a lot. During the rainy season, which usually happens from May to October, heavy rain falls across the country. This makes the rivers and streams overflow, and water spreads over the land, causing floods in many places. The floods can be really dangerous. They can destroy houses, roads, and farms, and sometimes people even get hurt or have to leave their homes. The government tries to help by building things like dams and levees to control the water and warn people when floods are coming. But still, floods can be a big problem for many people in Vietnam, so it's important for everyone to be ready and stay safe when it rains a lot.
