A cleft sentence highlights one part: Lan made the plan → It was Lan who/that made the plan. Focus on time: It was on Monday that Lan made it. Keep the original event, tense and actor unchanged. Who is possible for a person; that works in the other common focuses. Do not use a cleft to imply an unsupported contrast.
Topic preview: To plan a weekly budget, first write down the money actually available, not money you hope to receive. Next, list necessary travel and school costs. Set aside a small reserve if possible, then decide what remains for optional spending. Here is a fictional example, not my private financial record: from 200,000 đồng, allow 80,000 for travel, 50,000 for school materials, 20,000 for a reserve and 50,000 for optional spending. The four amounts add up to the available total. Record purchases during the week. Finally, compare the record with the plan and adjust the next week. If an essential cost changes, reconsider optional spending rather than hide the difference. Do not share account details or passwords in a class display. The purpose is responsible planning, not a competition to spend the least.
Follow-up: What if travel costs rise?
Response: Revise the budget and seek appropriate advice before cutting essential travel or assuming extra money will appear.
