Read the following passage and choose the item that best answers each of the questions about it.
Because deaf people cannot hear, they have special ways of communicating. For example, they can learn to understand what someone is saying by looking at the mouth of the speaker. This is called lip-reading. Also, speaking is very difficult for the deaf, because they cannot hear their own voices. However, it is possible with special training. According to many deaf people all around the world, the most practical and popular way of communicating is with sign language.
In many ways, sign language is similar to spoken language. The words of sign language are made with signs, which are formed with movements of the hands, face, and body. As with words, each sign has a different meaning and can be combined to form sentences. Sign languages also have their own grammar. The alphabet of sign language is special hand signs that stand for letters; they make spelling possible. The signs combine to form a rich language that can express the same thoughts, feelings, and ideas as any spoken language. And just as people from different countries speak different languages, most countries have their own variety of sign language.
In addition to knowing sign language, it is also helpful to know something about how deaf people communicate. Since they rely so much on actions, deaf people are generally not very formal when they “talk”, and may touch your arm or shoulder a lot to make sure you know what they’re saying. It is not seen as rude in among deaf people to lightly touch someone you do not know to get their attention. It’s also okay to wave your hands or hit the table or floor. Also, lots of eye contact is necessary.
There are many ways to learn a few signs. Community colleges often teach introductory classes. For self-learners, bookstores and libraries have books for learning sign language. There are also instructional videos on the Internet, with 30 actors demonstrating signs and performing interesting stories and conversations for you to see. With practice, you’ll soon get the hang of this useful method of communicating!

Sample 1:
Dear Mark,
How are you? I’m going to tell you about the Mid-Autumn Festival. It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. During the Mid-Autumn, my family and I often eat moon cakes, pomelos and watch lion dances. Furthermore, I also take part in one of the most interesting activities, which is the lantern parade in mid-autumn night. I like the festival very much because it was funny and meaningful.
I hope one day you can join the festival with us.
Cheers,
Linh

Dear Mark,
How are you? I'm going to tell you about Tet holiday in Vietnam. It usually takes place between late January and mid-February, depending on the lunar calendar. One of the most important activities during Tet is the preparation and sharing of special foods. My family often eat banh chung, which are filled with pork and beans and wrapped in banana leaves. During the festival, I often visit my friend’s and relatives’ houses, enjoy some special food, visit pagodas, and receive lucky money. I really love Tet holiday because I can get together with my family and friends after a year of hard work and study, and I’m happy to get dressed up in nice clothes and take a walk in public places.
I hope one day you can join the festival with us.
Cheers,

Hope you're doing well! I want to share about the Mid-Autumn Festival, a cherished celebration here.

My best friend, Lan, is in the same class 6A with me. She tells me if she is the president of the 3Rs club she will do some following activities to improve the environment. Firstly, she will organise the meetings each week. It will be the place where all members can express their ideas, talk with each other to raise solidarity. The more members understand each other, the more effectively they can do. Secondly, she will organise some campaigns to raise people’s awareness about protecting the environment. Finally, every member of the club will have a chance to take part in social activities like collecting and recycling the rubbish around the school, in the parks, on the rivers,…every week. I think Lan is a good leader because her ideas are wonderful. If they are done, our environment will become more beautiful and fresher.
