Đọc đoạn văn

In a small village in the north, there is a stilt house. In the house, a Tay family are living together: the grandparents called Dinh and Pu, the parents called Lai and Pha, and three children called Vang, Pao and Phong. Every day the grandparents stay at home to look after the house. Mr Lai and Mrs Pha work in the fields. They grow rice and other plants. Mrs Pha goes to the market twice a week to buy food for the family. Mr Lai sometimes goes hunting or cutting wood in the forests. Pao and Phong go to the primary school in the village, but Vang studies at the boarding school in the town about 15 kilometres away. He goes home at the weekend.
The family live simply and they enjoy their way of life. There are a few difficulties of course. But they say they live more happily in their stilt house than in a modern flat in the city.

Dịch:

Ở một ngôi làng nhỏ phía Bắc, có một ngôi nhà sàn. Trong nhà, một gia đình Tày đang sống cùng nhau: ông bà tên Dinh và Pu, ba mẹ tên Lai và Pha, và 3 đứa trẻ tên Vàng, Pao, và Phong. Mỗi ngày ông bà ở nhà trông coi nhà cửa. Ông Lai và bà Pha làm việc ngoài đồng. Họ trồng lúa và những cá; khác. Bà Pha đi chợ 2 lần 1 tuần để mua thức ăn cho gia đình. Ông Lai đôi khi đi săn hoặc lấy gỗ trong rừng. Pao và Phong đi học tiểu học ở làng, nhưng Vàng học ở trường nội trú trong thị trấn cách đó khoảng 15km. Cậu ấy về nhà vào cuối tuần.

Gia đình sống đơn giản và họ thích cách sống của mình. Có vài khó khăn. Nhưng họ nói rằng họ ở nhà sàn sống hạnh phúc hơn là ở trong một căn hộ hiện đại trong thành phố.
