Read the passage and answer the questions. "Li xi" is an important part in Vietnam’s customs of Tet Festival, especially with children. It is a small amount of money that can bring good fortune to the upcoming year. However, "li xi" is not limited only on the first day, but can even last to the 9th or 10th day of Tet Festival, and given when the adults first met the kids. Besides the money, the tiny red envelope also has its own meaning. It represents the secrecy and privacy to avoid comparison as adults want children to regard the money as the gift of New Year, instead of being jealous of receiving less than other kids. The red color, the most popular color appearing in Vietnamese festivals, signifies the prosperity and great luck according to Asian’s beliefs. In the morning of the first day of Lunar New Year, children and parents will visit grandparents’ home, wishing for a happy new year and great health, showing respect and gratitude, and giving gifts. After that, it is grandparents and adults’ turn to give children lucky money to welcome their new age. 1. By whom is the custom loved most? ___ 2. For how long can the custom be applied? ___ 3. Why is a red envelope used? ___ 4. What does the red color signify? ___ 5. Why do adults give "li xi" to children? ___
2. 2. Read the passage about the practice of ancestor worship in Viet Nam. Match the activities in A with their status in B. Write your answers in the space provided. The practice of ancestor worship is relatively straightforward. Nearly every house, office, and business in Viet Nam has a small altar which is used to commune with ancestors. Incense sticks are burned frequently. Offerings are made – fruit, sweets, and gifts. The latter items are paper replicas of dollar notes (‘ghost money’), motorbikes, cars, houses and so on. After worship, the paper gifts are burnt so that the spirits of the gifts can ascend to heaven for the ancestors to use. In the past, the income from a plot of land was used to maintain the altar and arrange the rituals, but this tradition has now faded away. However, the custom that the eldest son will arrange the ceremonial and inherit the family house upon the death of his parents is still generally observed. Another traditional element is the placing of wooden tablets on the altar for each of the ancestors over recent generations. This is less rigorously observed today, and tablets are often replaced by photographs. Some pagodas house commemorative tablets for ancestors on behalf of regular worshippers. A B ___ 1.

Listen to Amy talking about the custom of drinking tea around the world. // Match the country with its information.// You will listen TWICE.// Now listen and match.// India produces and consumes more tea than any other country in the world. Chai is the national drink in India. In Japan tea is an important part of the food culture. The ceremony of tea is known as matcha - serving green tea to a small group of people in popular teahouses. It’s almost impossible to spend 24 hours in a Moroccan city and to not be served hot tea. Moroccan mint tea is literally the heart of their culture. New Zealand imported considerable amounts of tea in 19th century, with the arrival of the British missionaries. Today people experiment with other types of tea like the Japanese green tea, or Chinese tea. In 2014, tea was one of the most popular non- alcoholic drinks in the United States. Today we can say that coffee is still preferred for the morning ritual, ice tea is often consumed with lunch and all types of tea are drunk in the evenings. (Dừng) Now listen again.

A 3. C 4. B 5. C III. WRITING 1. Write a short paragraph (80-100 words) to express your opinion on the following idea: I agree that the ethnic minorities should learn the Viet’s language for some reasons. First, they live in the same country so they really need a common language to communicate. Because the Viet account for more than 80 per cent of the population, if every ethnic group could speak the Viet’s language, all groups would be able to exchange cultures and traditions more easily. Moreover, the Viet have more opportunities to exchange with the outside world so they update information and knowledge faster. If ethnic groups could speak the Viet’s language, I think they could also read news in Vietnamese and widen their knowledge faster. Those are the reasons why people from ethnic minorities should learn Vietnamese. 2. Complete each of the following sentences using the cues given.
