I would like to understand what characteristics of Vietnam make it good for an online English class, and what other countries are similar to Vietnam in those ways. That…
How hot did it get today? Do you like this weather?Why don’t people come out? Where have you sat for hours? I can wash my clothes in the sink before I go to work.The sun is hot and the air is dry. I don’t need a drier; the clothes will be dry.It was 93 F today, and next week it will be 100 F. People don’t come out for food trucks in this heat. We sat there all day.How many…
