Below are 5 sample paragraphs about a favorite character in a read or heard story:

Sample 1: Saint Giong

The character I love the most is Saint Giong from Vietnamese legend. Saint Giong was a special boy who, at the age of three, hadn't spoken or smiled, but upon hearing that the country was in danger, he suddenly grew rapidly, rode an iron horse, and defeated the invaders. The image of Saint Giong ascending to the sky represents the patriotic spirit, bravery, and extraordinary strength of our people. I greatly admire Saint Giong because he is a symbol of patriotism and indomitable will.

Sample 2: Cinderella

The character I love the most is Cinderella from the fairy tale of the same name. Cinderella was a kind and hardworking girl who was unfairly treated by her stepmother and two cruel stepsisters. Thanks to her kind heart and the help of a fairy godmother, she was able to attend the ball and meet the prince. Ultimately, she became a princess and lived a happy life. I love Cinderella because she is always gentle, optimistic, and deserving of happiness.

Sample 3: Cricket ("Dế Mèn phiêu lưu ký" - To Hoai)

The character I love the most is Cricket from the story "Dế Mèn phiêu lưu ký" by writer To Hoai. Initially, Cricket was an arrogant and conceited young cricket, but after causing the death of Little Cricket, he realized his mistake and was determined to change. Cricket bravely embarked on adventures, overcoming many challenges to help his little friends. I like Cricket for his strength, resilience, and spirit of learning from and correcting his mistakes.

Sample 4: Uncle Cuoi

The character I love is Uncle Cuoi from the fairy tale "The Legend of Uncle Cuoi on the Moon." Uncle Cuoi was intelligent, quick-witted, and kind-hearted. Thanks to a magical herb, he could save many people, but due to one careless incident, the herb’s roots were pulled up into the sky, taking Uncle Cuoi with it. Since then, he has had to live alone on the moon. I like Uncle Cuoi because he is kind, compassionate, and is associated with the legend of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Sample 5: Little Liem ("Chuyện cũ trong phủ chúa Trịnh" - Pham Dinh Ho)

The character I love is Little Liem in the story "Chuyện cũ trong phủ chúa Trịnh". Liem was an intelligent, honest, and courageous boy. When entrusted with the task of delivering money to the lord's palace, he did not succumb to greed and kept the exact amount given. Even when tested with gold bars, he remained honest and did not take even a little. I greatly admire Liem’s honesty and wish to learn from this Sample.
