It is great to have pen pals. In my opinion, friendship is among the meaningful relations in our life. Many of my friends have pen pals and they correspond regularly. A friend of mine once got a letter from the school mailbox and told me a lot of interesting things about her pen pal. That made me excited and I was eager to have one. Therefore, I got online and did some chatting. I was lucky to get to know a very nice Australian girl. Her name's Jenny. She and I are the same age and we have a lot of things in common.
Although my English was not very good at first, we were able to understand each other quite well. My English has improved a lot. Jenny has never been to Viet Nam. However, she thinks well of our country and our people. When she comes to Viet Nam, I will take her to some interesting places, especially our World Heritage Sites, such as Ha Long Bay, Hoi An Ancient Town, My- Son Tower. Through her mail, she tells me about her country. Thanks to Jenny, I know more and more about Australia. I hope to be an exchange student in Australia some day and we will be able to meet.

Wonder why some pop singers appear to enjoy so much fame in their time. Usually, there are some valid reasons for their popularity.

She shot to (8) FAME with hits such as Holiday, Material Girl, True Blue and Live to Tell.

She has (11) INFLUENCED pop music, fashion and style, shocking and impressing many people at the same time. Her (12) UNIQUE identity in a era when so many pop singers look and sound alike puts her in a class of her own.
Another icon with even more mass appeal in his day is Elvis Presley. Nicknamed the King of Rock and Roll, or simply, the King, he ruled the pop music (13) SENSE during the 1950s. By (14) COMBINING black rhythm-and-blues music with white country blues, he created new styles of music and in the process re-invented wock-and-roll. It was considered remarkable and even revolutionary at a time when black and white Americans (15) LED separate lives and lived in great (16) MISTRUST of one another. Through music, he (17) BRIDGED a visiable gap between the two groups of Americans. To the youth of his generation, Elvis also (18) SYMBOLIZED rebelliousness and vitality. His influence (19) PEAKED in the 1950s but declined after the 1960s with the rise of other pop groups. He died in 1977 but he is remembered until today and thousands still flock to Graceland, his home, every anniversary of his death. Elvis Presley has definitely become a music (20) LEGEND
