1. Read the following passage and answer the questions, Circle A, B or C.
Promotion of learning and respect for teachers are among the traditional values of the Vietnamese people. In the
old days, it was commonly believed that a teacher's position was higher than parents' and only lower than the
king's. In many communes and villages, rich people invited teachers to stay in their houses to teach their own
children and those from other families. To become a mandarin, a candidate had to have excellent learning
achievements and gained high marks in competitive exams. The first such exam for civil administrators was
conducted in 1075.
For nearly one thousand years, Vietnamese people learnt Chinese characters and used them for writing, but
pronounced them in a different, Vietnamese way. Besides the use of Chinese characters, the Vietnamese people
adapted such characters to invent an ancient Vietnamese script for writing and expressions. Many valuable works
of literature and history were kept for the future generations thanks to the script. This development and
preservation strengthened an awareness of national independence and ensured that the Chinese did not
assimilate the Vietnamese people.
