VI. Read the passage and choose the best answer. (1.25 points)

The Vietnamese word for bread is banh mi, but it also refers to a type of Vietnamese traditional baguette. The Vietnamese baguette banh mi is filled with meat, vegetables, butter, and sauce. This way of making the banh mi looks like making a sandwich. That is why foreigners call it a sandwich although its shape is a baguette.

People can choose from a wide variety of main ingredients (grilled pork, fish patty, fried egg, etc.) and vegetables (cucumber, onion, carrot, etc.) to fill the banh mi. Depending on the main ingredients, there are varieties of banh mi such as banh mi thit (pork sandwich), banh mi thit nuong (grilled pork sandwich), banh mi cha lua (pork sausage sandwich), banh mi cha ca (fish patty sandwich), banh mi op-la (fried egg sandwich), banh mi ca moi (sardine sandwich), etc.

Banh mi is sometimes considered as a street food, but it can be served as a main food. Many people even choose banh mi for their breakfast. Banh mi along with pho, bun, xoi and many other traditional dishes, is the beauty of Vietnamese cuisine.
