Once you begin the test, continue moving. If you work slowly in an attempt to (36)_______ fewer

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.
In Viet Nam festivals often take place during the three months in spring and in autumn when people
have a lot of leisure time. In addition, the climate in spring and autumn is especially suitable for holding
festivals and for festivals goers to enjoy. Traditional festivals constitute a form of cultural activities, a
spiritual product which the people have created and developed during the course of history. From
generation to generation, the Vietnamese people preserve the fine tradition of “remembering the source
while drinking water.” Festivals are events which represent this tradition of the community as well as
honour the holy figures named as “gods” -the real persons in national history or legendary persons. The
images of gods converge the noble characteristics of mankind. They are national heroes who fought
against foreign invaders, reclaimed new lands, treated people, fought against natural calamities, or those
legendary characters who affect the earthly life.
Accordingly, first and foremost, festivals are events when people pay tribute to divinities that rendered
merits to the community and the nation. These are occasions when people come back to either their
natural or national roots, which form a sacred part in their mind. Furthermore, festivals represent the
strength of the commune or village, the local region or even the whole nation. Worshipping the same
god, the people unite in solidarity to overcome difficulties, striving for a happy and wealthy life.
Moreover, festivals display the demand for creativity and enjoyment of spiritual and material cultural
values of all social strata. They become a form of education under which fine traditional moral values

can be handed from one generation to the next in a unique way of combining spiritual characters with
competition and entertainment games. Festivals are also the time people can express their sadness and
worries in a wish that gods might bestow favour on them to help them strive for a better life.

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.
One of the most difficult questions to answer is how much a job is worth. We naturally expect that a
doctor’s salary will be higher than a bus conductor’s wage. But the question becomes much more difficult
to answer when we compare, say, a miner with an engineer, or an unskilled man working on an oil-rig in
the North Sea with a teacher in a secondary school. What the doctor, the engineer and teacher have is many
years of training in order to obtain the necessary qualifications for their professions. We feel instinctively
that these skills and these years, when they were studying instead of earning money, should be rewarded.
At the same time we recognize that the work of the miner and the oil-rig laborer is both hard and
dangerous, and that they must be highly paid for the risks they take.
Another factor we must take into consideration is how socially useful a man’s work is, regardless of
the talents he may bring to it. Most people would agree that looking after the sick or teaching children is
more important than, say, selling secondhand cars or improving the taste of toothpaste by adding a red
stripe to it. Yet it is almost certain that the used car salesman earns more than the nurse, and that research
chemist earns more than the school teacher.
Indeed, this whole question of just rewards can be turned on its head. You can argue that a man
who does a job which brings him personal satisfaction is already receiving part of his reward in the form of
a so-called “psychic wage”, and that it is the man with the boring, repetitive job who needs more money to
make up for the soul-destroying monotony of his work. It is significant that that those jobs which are
traditionally regarded as “vocations” - nursing, teaching and the Church, for example - continue to be
poorly paid, while others, such as those in the world of sport or entertainment, carry financial rewards out
of all proportion to their social worth.

Although the amount of money that people earn is in reality largely determined by market forces,
this should not prevent us from seeking some way to decide what is the right pay for the job. A starting
point for such an investigation would be to try to decide the ratio which ought to exist between the highest
and the lowest paid. The picture is made more complicate by two factors: firstly by the “social wage”, i.e,
the welfare benefits which every citizen receives; and secondly, by the taxation system, which is often used
as an instrument of social justice by taxing high incomes at a very high rate indeed. Allowing for these two
things, most countries now regard a ratio of 7:1 as socially acceptable. If it is less, the highly-qualified
people carrying heavy responsibilities become disillusioned, and might even end up by emigration (the so-
called “brain-drain” is an evidence that this can happen). If it is more, the gap between rich and poor will
be so great that it will lead social tensions and ultimately to violence.
