Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 28 to 32.

Upon the creation of the United States, one of the core concepts on which the hopes for the new democracy were pinned was the ideal that its citizens would be enlightened individuals with clearly articulated rights and the opportunity for individual achievement and education. It was believed that in a free nation where the power belongs to the people, the commitment to education defines the progress of that democracy and is the catalyst for future progress. This core value has not only stood the test of time but has also grown in importance.

In this new Information Era and international economy, education is an increasingly vital commodity, a precursor of potential success and a driving force of chance. It is important to recognize, however, that we approach education today differently than in the past, partly because the kinds of jobs people had didn’t require the kind of basic education and specialized training that is often required in the workforce today. In the 1950s, for instance, only 20 percent of American jobs were classified as professional, 20 percent as skilled; and 60 percent as unskilled. Today, our world has changed. The proportion of unskilled jobs has fallen to 20 percent, while jobs now account for at least 60 percent of the workforce. Even more important, almost every job today increasingly requires a combination of academic knowledge and practical skills that require learning throughout a lifetime.

Question 28: Education is defined in this passage as a driving force of chance because ___________

A. without education, no changes could have happened in American society so far.

B. the government of the United States wants to drive social changes in their own ways.

C. education has helped to bring about and orient most changes in the American workforce.

D. any American citizen who wants to changes his driving license must be very well-educated.

Question 29: The passage shows the percentage of jobs that require higher training in the US__________ between 1950s and now.

A. has remained the same B. has changed dramatically

C. has been reversed D. has changed slightly

Question 30: The phrase “enlightened individuals” in the first sentence most likely means “people who ____________.”

A. always appear brilliant-looking in public B. have often been well-exposed to light

C. have acquired an adequate level of education D. bring light to anywhere they go

Question 31: In order to become a good American citizen today, in the author’s point of view, any individual must ___________

A. know well all his/her rights and be ready to grasp his/her opportunity of success in life

B. study carefully the history of American educational and vocational systems even since their creation

C. understand thoroughly the combination of academic knowledge and practical skills

D. move actively forward in the new Information Era and international economy with a prestigious diploma

Question 32: Which of the following titles would be best for the passage?

A. Education and Jobs in the Past and at Present in the United States.

B. The Significant Role of Education in American Citizens’ Careers

C. Academic Knowledge and Practical Skills in American Professions

D. Recent Changes of Educational and Vocational Systems in America

Traditional handicrafts of Vietnam

– Vietnam’s traditional handicrafts are associated with wet rice civilization and craft villages and guilds. Handicrafts not only turn a profit but also reflect the customs and culture of Vietnam’s rural areas. On today’s edition of Colorful Vietnam-Vietnam’s 54 ethnic groups, VOV reporter To Tuan examines the traditional handicrafts of Vietnam.

Vietnam’s traditional handicraft villages are concentrated in the Red River Delta. The ancient Viet people lived mainly on rice farming. During the idle time between crops, farmers made tools of bamboo, rattan and steel. As time went by, handicrafts developed from households to guilds. Whole villages engaged in pottery, mat weaving, silk weaving, wood-carving or bronze casting.

Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital city with a thousand-year history boasts many handicraft streets and guilds. The city has 36 streets whose name begins with the word “Hang” meaning “Craft”. Craftspeople from rural areas moved to Hanoi and formed their guilds. Today, some of these streets retain their traditional crafts, such as Hang Bac – engaged in silver making, Hang Thiec – Tin making, and Hang Dong – Bronze-casting. Some retain their old name but the traditional crafts faded such as Hang Can – Scale making, and Hang Quat – Fan making. Folklore researcher Doctor Ngo Duc Thinh says: “Hang Quat street no longer makes fans, but it reminds people of a traditional craft that is reflected in the local lifestyles and architecture”.

Each craft village has its own know-how, which has been passed down from generation to generation. There have been villages specialized in lacquer wares, pottery, blacksmithing, embroidery, bamboo, rattan, basket-weaving, folk painting and wooden and stone sculpture. Nguyen Huu Nam is the owner of a workshop of doing gold and silver inlays in Kieu Ky village on the outskirts of Hanoi: “We inherited this craft from our ancestors. We have mastered the techniques of gold and silver inlaying and transferred them to our offspring”.

Traditional craft villages have cultural and historical significance. Many of them have become popular tourist destinations.

Vietnam now has 4,500 craft villages, including 400 traditional villages which employ some 12 million people and create millions of seasonal jobs for farmers. The export of handicraft items earns more than 1 billion USD annually. These villages generate economic benefits while helping to preserve Vietnam’s cultural and historical heritage.

Recently, we made a trip to visit Dong Ho village with a desire to meet the old artisan - Nguyen Huu Sam. Just when we arrived at the dyke in the village and talked with the villagers about the artisan, they intimately told us about him. The old house owned by the artisan is situated in a long alley of the village. On the walls of the house there are many folk paintings in different genres, from daily life paintings to landscape paintings shown in a set of “four seasons” and four times.

Mr. Sam told us about his past. When he was three years old, he was instructed in the craft of making Dong Ho paintings by his father. At five, he could help his father apply the Dong Ho paintings, and learn how to print the paper with proper colours.At seven, he was able to draw with a pen and make the most difficult samples. Years went by and the soul of Dong Ho folk paintings has kept seashell powder paint to the poonah-paper.

In the 1940s, this craft flourished. At that time, he was assigned by his parents to take the paintings to the market for sale. Mr. Sam said that 17 families in the village had been engaged in making Dong Ho paintings.

Artisan Sam has always been devoted to the making of Dong Ho paintings and has waited for opportunities to restore this traditional craft. In 1967, when the local authorities assigned him to restore the traditional genre of Dong Ho folk paintings, he gathered 50 villagers with professional skills and collected hundreds of woodblocks to establish the Dong Ho Painting Cooperative. Thanks to his efforts, such famous paintings as "Rat’s wedding”, “Rooster”, “Scene of jealousy” and “Writing verses about precious flowers” have been revived. Dong Ho paintings have been available in many parts of the world such as Japan, France, Germany, Singapore and the United States.

Recently, we made a trip to visit Dong Ho village with a desire to meet the old artisan - Nguyen Huu Sam. Just when we arrived at the dyke in the village and talked with the villagers about the artisan, they intimately told us about him. The old house owned by the artisan is situated in a long alley of the village. On the walls of the house there are many folk paintings in different genres, from daily life paintings to landscape paintings shown in a set of “four seasons” and four times.

Mr. Sam told us about his past. When he was three years old, he was instructed in the craft of making Dong Ho paintings by his father. At five, he could help his father apply the Dong Ho paintings, and learn how to print the paper with proper colours.At seven, he was able to draw with a pen and make the most difficult samples. Years went by and the soul of Dong Ho folk paintings has kept seashell powder paint to the poonah-paper.

In the 1940s, this craft flourished. At that time, he was assigned by his parents to take the paintings to the market for sale. Mr. Sam said that 17 families in the village had been engaged in making Dong Ho paintings.

Artisan Sam has always been devoted to the making of Dong Ho paintings and has waited for opportunities to restore this traditional craft. In 1967, when the local authorities assigned him to restore the traditional genre of Dong Ho folk paintings, he gathered 50 villagers with professional skills and collected hundreds of woodblocks to establish the Dong Ho Painting Cooperative. Thanks to his efforts, such famous paintings as "Rat’s wedding”, “Rooster”, “Scene of jealousy” and “Writing verses about precious flowers” have been revived. Dong Ho paintings have been available in many parts of the world such as Japan, France, Germany, Singapore and the United States.

When Mr. Sam was very young, he mostly helped his parents by ________.

collecting and taking the paintings to the market for sale

Sedge Mat Craft Village In Tien Giang Province

In the Mekong Delta., Long Dinh village of Tien Giang province is famous for its traditional craft of weaving flowered mats. The mat's high quality makes them popular domestically, and they are also exported to markets worldwide including Korea, Japan and America.

In spite of its well-established reputation for this traditional craft, mat weaving only started here some 50 years ago. It was first introduced by immigrants from Kim Son, a famous mat weaving village in the northern province of Ninh Binh. However, the technique of weaving sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with other places in the South, is somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more attractive colours and pattems.

Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice. Long Dinh mat production mainly occurs during the dry season, from January to April. Weavers have to work their hardest in May and June, otherwise, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off finishing their products till the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires, Long Dinh mat producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than growing rice.

This trade provides employment for thousands of local labourers. At present, nearly 1,000 households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats. To better meet market demands, Long Dinh mat weavers have created more products in addition to the traditional sedge mats. Particularly, they are producing a new type of mat made from the dried stalks of water hyacinth, a common material in the Mekong Delta.

Thanks to the planning and further investment, the mat weaving occupation has indeed brought in more income for local residents. Their living standards have improved considerably, resulting in better conditions for the whole village.

36. All of the following are true about the craft in Long Dinh EXCEPT that .

A.it has the origin from Kim Son, Ninh Binh

B.it has had the reputation for more than 50 years

C.the techniques are a little bit different from those in other regions

D.the mats have more attractive colours and designs

37. We can infer from the sentence "Weaving sedge mats is similar growing rice” that .

A.both depend on weather conditions B.both occur on the same land

C.both bring similar income D. both occur at the same time

38. Despite difficulties, people in Long Dinh try to follow the craft because .

A.they can have jobs in the rainy months

B.they can go to Korea, Japan and America

C.they can make the techniques of weaving different

D.they can earn more money than growing rice

39. In order to meet market demands, artisans in Long Dinh .

A.produce new products from rare material

B.hire thousands of local labourers

C.try to produce various types of products

D.stop producing the traditional sedge mats

40. We can infer from the passage that .

A.the new technique makes labourers work in the dry season
