The villager had to work hard in the field all day and could hardly make ends meet. Their lives were simple and they were in need of many things. Many people had to live in houses made of straw and mud, and a few families had a radio or a TV set. However, in spite of the shortages, the villagers managed to send their children to school and college. They hoped that with an education of science and technology, their children could find a way of bettering their lives. The children have met their parents’ wishes. When they came back from college or technical high school, they introduced new farming methods, which resulted in bumper crops. They also helped the villagers grow cash crop for export. Soon, the lifestyle of my village changed. Today, people live in brick houses. In the evening, they can listen to the news on the radio or watch TV for entertainment.. Sometimes they go to town on their motorbikes to do some shopping or to visit their friends. “ Our lives have changed a lot thanks to the knowledge our children brought home” said an old farmer, “and I always tell my grandchildren to study harder so that they can do even more for the village than their parents did.READ THE PASSAGE, AND THEN DO THE TASKS THAT FOLLOW cash crop:► brick housebrick (n) [brik] : gạchstraw (n) [strɔ:]: rơmIn the past, my house was made of straw and mudmud (n) [mʌd] :bùn shortage(n) ['∫ɔ:tidʒ} of :Sự thiếu thốnThis girl is a beggar.
