* Sample answer
From: Nguyen
To: Tom Dear Tom,
I will tell you more about our Tet. At Tet, we should decorate our homes with flowers and plants. We should visit our grandparents and relatives, too.
But we shouldn`t eat too much sweet food. We shouldn`t keep lucky money, either. We should put it into our piggy bank.
Please write and tell me about your New Year celebration.
Yours,
Nguyen
