Nội dung bài nghe

Nowadays, both traditional and modern festivals are trying to reduce their carbon footprints and promote eco-friendly practices. Today, I'm going to talk about three of them.

Now, let's look at this photo. Well, this is Forest Festival or Van Mahotsav in India, a tree-planting festival taking place in the first week of July every year since 1950. Its aim is to raise people's awareness about the importance of forests in India. As part of the festival, thousands of trees are planted by both children and adults all over the country.

Next, I'll talk about Tet Festival, or Vietnamese New Year traditions. As part of the celebration, people release live fish into rivers a week before the festival officially begins. This tradition comes from an ancient story and is believed to bring good luck. It is also used to promote the protection and conservation of freshwater habitats. The event is now monitored by local authorities to ensure fish species are suitable for the ecological conditions of rivers.

Music festivals are also becoming eco-friendly, and one example is Paléo Festival in Switzerland, which is held in July every year. Back in 2009, it introduced reusable cups. Festival goers are also encouraged to use public transport as much as possible. Most food stalls sell local, organic, or vegetarian food. The festival is also committed to using 100 per cent green energy.

Now, do you know any other eco-friendly festivals or traditions?

2. Listen again and decide whether the following sentences are true (T) or false (F).

(Nghe lại và quyết định xem những câu sau đây đúng (T) hay sai (F).)

Alexandre Yersin was born in 1863 in Switzerland, and passed away at the age of 80 in Nha Trang, Viet Nam. His family was originally from France. He was a doctor who made great contributions to medicine as well as the people in Viet Nam.

In 1890, Yersin left Europe to work as a medical doctor on a ship near Indochina, where he explored the region. In 1894, he was sent to Hong Kong to deal with an infected disease. Then, he discovered a bacterium responsible for the disease and saved millions of people's lives.

Gợi ý đáp án

Ton That Tung, born in 1912 in Thanh Hoa Province, Vietnam, was a renowned surgeon in the field of medicine. His educational journey began in 1931 when he moved to Hanoi and studied at Chu Van An High School. However, it was from 1935 to 1939 that he truly honed his medical skills, attending the Indochina School of Medicine and Pharmacy. During this period, he performed operations on over 200 livers of dead bodies and analysed them. After the Revolution in August 1945, he served as a private doctor, dedicated to the care of Uncle Ho. His passion for healing and thoroughness in healthcare leadership propelled him to the position of director at Phu Doan Hospital, known today as Viet Duc Hospital.

In 1958, Ton That Tung became the first doctor to successfully perform heart surgery in Vietnam. Later, in 1960s, he found a new surgery method to reduce bleeding and shorten operation times to a remarkable four to eight minutes. He passed away in Hanoi in 1982 at the age of 70 but his contributions to inspire and shape the medical landscape in Vietnam remain to this day.
