Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the

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 colors and patterns.

6
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 laborers. 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.
Question 17. All of the following are true about the craft in Long Dinh EXCEPT that _____.
A. it has had the reputation for more than 50 years
B. it has the origin from Kim Son, Ninh Binh
C. the mats have more attractive colors and designs
D. the techniques are a little bit different from those in other regions
Question 18. We can infer from the sentence "Weaving sedge mats is similar growing rice” that _____.
A. both depend on weather conditions B. both occur at the same time
C. both occur on the same land D. both bring similar income
Question 19. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Sedge mat craft village in Tien Giang Province.B. A new type of mat in Mat Craft Village.
C. The technique of weaving sedge mats in Long Dinh. D. Growing rice in Tien Giang Province.
Question 20. Despite difficulties, people in Long Dinh try to follow the craft because _____.
A. they can go to Korea, Japan and America B. they can make the techniques of weaving
different
C. they can have jobs in the rainy months D. they can earn more money than growing rice
Question 21. In order to meet market demands, artisans in Long Dinh ______.

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you understand the assignment. Write
it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to, and don't be afraid to ask questions about what is
expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to
remember later that night! If you want, you can also ask how long the particular homework assignment should
take to complete so you can plan your time.
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools have
libraries that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done. The more work you
can get done in school, the less you will have to do that night.
Third, pace yourself. If you don't finish your homework during school, think about how much you
have left and what else going on that day, and then plan your time. Most middle students should have between
1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you will need to devote more time to
homework.

for help is your teacher. But if you don't feel comfortable with your teacher? If you are in a big enough school,
there may be other teachers who teach the same subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may be in
luck. Sometimes it just helps to have someone explain something in a different way. Moreover, you might
also be able to get some help from another student. If there is someone you like who is a good student, think
about asking that person if you can study together.
