<g2> 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 question.
In the Mekong Delta, Long Dinh village in Tien Giang province is famous for its
traditional craft of weaving sedge mats. The mats’ high quality makes them popular
domestically, and they are also exported to markets worldwide. 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 Ninh Binh
province. However, the technique of weaving sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with
other places, is somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats arc thicker and have more
attractive colours and patterns.
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 the hardest in May
and June; otherwise, when die rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off finishing
their products till die 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 many kinds of products besides the traditional sedge
mats.
