II. READING
1. Read the passage and answer the questions.
"Li xi" is an important part in Vietnam’s customs of Tet Festival, especially with
children. It is a small amount of money that can bring good fortune to the upcoming
year. However, "li xi" is not limited only on the first day, but can even last to the 9th or
10th day of Tet Festival, and given when the adults first met the kids.
Besides the money, the tiny red envelope also has its own meaning. It represents the
secrecy and privacy to avoid comparison as adults want children to regard the money
as the gift of New Year, instead of being jealous of receiving less than other kids. The
red color, the most popular color appearing in Vietnamese festivals, signifies the
prosperity and great luck according to Asian’s beliefs.
In the morning of the first day of Lunar New Year, children and parents will visit
grandparents’ home, wishing for a happy new year and great health, showing respect
and gratitude, and giving gifts. After that, it is grandparents and adults’ turn to give
children lucky money to welcome their new age.

2. Read the following text about leisure activities of Vietnamese
teenagers. Match the words in A with their meanings in B.
A recent survey conducted by TIRA, a Vietnamese research company, highlights
problems about the lifestyles of Vietnamese teenagers in urban areas. There is an
imbalance in their consumption of time for studying and recreational activities. On
average, these teenagers spend 9.5 hours a day on studies at school and at home.
They only have about four hours for entertainment. Most of this time is spent on
watching television and the internet, where they chat through social networks. The
teenagers admit that they use computers to play games and to chat with friends
much more than using it for studying purposes. The survey also shows that during
summer months, despite having much more free time than during school years,
these teenagers still fail to manage their time properly. They stay in bed longer, and
then get hooked on games and TV. The time for computers and TV increases
significantly to about five or six hours a day, while there is almost no time for physical
outdoor activities.
