Transcript

As you enter the Vatican Museums, you pass through large sculptured

doors When the light shines just the right way, bronze squares in the

doors seem to catch fire The artist Cecco Bonanotte created the doors in

nineteen ninety-nine He produced them for the opening celebration of the

new entrance to the Vatican Museums in two thousand But other works

here are much older There are containers with beautiful artwork created

more than two thousand years ago Statues and paintings show heroes of

ancient Troy and Athens Paintings and cloth textiles reproduce the world

of the sixteenth century Sometimes experts remove objects to repair and

restore them And some objects may be loaned to other museums But

there are always many interesting and beautiful objects to see at the

Vatican Museums.

I’m Nguyen Viet Hung I’m now twenty-five years old, and I’ll tell you a story about my pen pal Last year I had the most

enjoyable experience when I met somebody I had been writing

to for over nine years When I was about fifteen, my teacher of English asked if anyone wanted to have an English pen pal I had known some English and as I was finding it rather difficult I thought this might help me A few weeks later the teacher gave

me the address of a boy who lived in Leeds We began to write

to each other straight away and usually exchanged letters about twice a month

Read the passage below.

We often wrote that we would like to meet but, unfortunately, this was never possible However, last year I was sent on a two-week course in London by my firm There was a great deal of work to

do and I didn’t have much time free but on the second weekend

my friend came to see me I wondered if we would really like

each other when we met Fortunately, there was absolutely

nothing to worry about; we had been writing for so long that it

was like a meeting an old friend We had a meal together and

spent the whole day talking about our shared interests I hope we will be able to meet again soon
