Bạn có thể sử dụng các hướng dẫn sau đây.)• time and the channel on TV• length of the show, parts of the show• number of the competitors• content of the questions• the feeling you have for itI enjoy watching television and often spend one or two hours watching it everyday. I sometimes spend more time watching it at weekends. One of my favorite programs is “Road to Mount Olympia.” It is always on from 9 o’clock to 11 o'clock on VTV3 on Sunday. I like watching it because the competitors on each show are very intelligent. They are all advanced students from different schools. They have to answer several questions about general knowledge of natural and social sciences. Many questions are very challenging for me. I am interested in watching it but I don't think I am able to take part in the programme.
