PART 2: Read and write T(true) or F(false). There is one example.
Water Puppet Theater
Water puppet theaters started in the Red River Delta a thousand years ago. But they are still popular today all over
Viet Nam. The puppets are usually made from wood and painted in different colors with a special type of paint that stays
in water.
The stage is a pool of water, and the puppets move over the top of it. When water puppets first started, the stage was a
rice field. Today, people hide behind a screen so no one sees them. They use sticks to make the puppets move and act out
the story. The stories are usually about Vietnamese folktales and legends. Some times there is a band that plays
Vietnamese music.

2 Lan:I'm Lan. I went on a vacation with all my cousins to a big house in the mountains. I have eight
cousins, so we had lots of fun together. There was a big lake near the house, so we went for walks and
also went swimming. It was very warm, so it was OK when we got wet! We also sang outside in the
evening. It was very beautiful in the mountains.

My parents didn't go to work for two weeks, and we went to different places together each day. We

them all, but my favorite was the lions.
