1. Listen and read.
Nick: How's your international summer camp going, Phong?
Phong: Awesome, just awesome.
Nick: You sound so happy. What do you like about it?
Phong: It's hard to say. Everything's wonderful: the friends I've made, the places I've visited, the activities…
Nick: Oh… Your English has improved a lot!
Phong: Absolutely. I use English every day, with people from different countries.
Nick: Where are they from?
Phong: Everywhere! Places like India, Canada… English is also an official language here in Singapore.
Nick: Right. Have you made any friends from English speaking countries?
Phong: I'm in a team with two boys from Australia and a girl from the USA.
Nick: Do you have difficulty understanding them?
Phong: I found it difficult to understand them at first. Perhaps it's because of their accent, but it's OK now.
Nick: It's great that you can practise English with native speakers. When are you back?
Phong: Our camp closes on July 15th and I take the night flight home the same day.
Nick: Looking forward to seeing you then. Enjoy!
Phong: I will. Thanks. Bye.
