@Minh_Anh_Pham Hi!
”Disturb” means to bother or annoy someone or something.
”Please don't disturb me; I'm trying to concentrate.”
”Distract” is when you are trying to get someone to pay attention to something, usually unimportant.
”My friend keeps calling me every five minutes, and it's distracting me.”
”Disrupt” means to interfere with something/ someone's actions.
”The student told a funny joke which disrupted the classroom.”
