- Read the conversation
Duong:
Can you believe it’s the school’s 60th anniversary?
Phuc:
I know! I really like the photo exhibition. It’s fascinating to see how the school used to look.
Duong:
Right! The photos explain a lot about our school in the past.
Tom:
Look – these two pictures were taken in 1970.
Phuc:
Wow, that long ago? The school looks more like thatched houses with paddy fields all around. You can see there were only a few classrooms and the walls were made of mud and straw and, look – trenches!
Duong:
I think that was during the war so it was necessary to have the trenches right there.
Tom:
Ha… the students in this picture are wearing rubber sandals and straw hats.
Nhi:
Hey, and these pictures were taken in 1985. Look at the broken tiled roof and wooden window frames… and some of them are missing.
Duong:
Yes, I can’t imagine how those students could study in such poor conditions!
Phuc:
Right! Things have improved considerably now. We have everything… comfortable classrooms, learning facilities like computer rooms…
Nhi:
Yeah, we also have nice uniforms and proper shoes. We’re much luckier these days… But, I’m not sure our grades are better…
