Bản dịch :
Xin chào, tôi tên là Nana. Tôi sống ở Liverpool, một thành phố lớn ở Anh. Nó có rất nhiều người và những điều thú vị. Nó rất ồn ào . Nhưng tôi thích sống ở đây vì cuộc sống thú vị
Trong kỳ nghỉ hè. Tôi thường ở với ông bà của tôi ở King, một thị trấn ở phía đông nước Anh, ở một đất nước tên là Norkfolk. Không có nhiều người ở đó, nhưng các cửa hàng rất đẹp và mọi thứ rẻ hơn. Tôi thích Norfolk vì người dân rất thân thiện.
