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.
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.
