Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
In Viet Nam, a market is a trading place, but many markets are not only about
buying and selling things. They reflect the life of the community. A traditional
market is a social gathering point for people of all ages and it is a new and exciting
experience for children, a trading place for local craftsmen, and a chance for
young people to meet. People go to the traditional market not only to buy and sell
things but also to eat, drink, play games, and socialize. For example, if you go to
Sa Pa Market, which is the highlands in the north of Viet Nam, you can see people
wearing their nicest clothes and spending all day long at the market. They buy
things, play the flute, dance, and sing. This is also a time to meet, make friends
or look for lovers. That is why this kind of gathering is also called "Love Market”.
Some other countryside markets in the Mekong Delta are held on boats. Most of
the goods are sold at a floating market. The most exciting time is in the early
morning when boats arrive loaded up with agricultural products.
