Read the passage and answer the questions.
The Hmong people are one of the major ethnic minorities of Vietnam, with a population
of about one million. Like many other ethnic groups, each year, the Hmong celebrates
New Year with ritual practices for the gods and celebrations among themselves.
E. READING
The Hmong people celebrate their New Year festival following their own calendar. It
usually falls during the eleventh month of the Lunar calendar and lasts for at least fifteen
3 days. However, it does not have an exact date every year. The date of New Year's Day is
revealed some months prior to the celebration, and the festival is organized rather subtly.
This is the most important festival of the year for them, symbolising the start of something
new and good harvest for the coming year. People from many villages gather together and
share their memories of the last year.
During the festival, there are various traditional musical shows that embody Hmong
customs. Women and girls dress up in traditional costumes, wearing silver necklaces and
diadems. Some other festive activities include tug-of-war and horse racing.
They join with the Vietnamese (Kinh) Lunar New Year about a month later, when all
the ethnicities also celebrate together.
