IV. Read the passage carefully and then choose the correct answer to each question.
In 1986, Vietnam launched a political and aconomic innovation campaign (Doi Moi) that introduced
reforms intended to facilitate the transition from a centralized economy to a socialist-oriented market
economy. Doi Moi combined government planning with free-market incentives. The programme abolished
agricultural collectives, removed price controls on agricultural goods, and enabled farmers to sell their
goods in the marketplace. It encouraged the establishment of private businesses and foreign investment,
including foreign-owned enterprises.
By the late 1990s, the success of the business and agricultural reforms ushered in under Doi Moi was
evident. More than 30,000 private businesses had been created, and the economy was growing at an annual
rate of more than 7 percent. From the early 1990s to 2005, poverty declined from about 50 percent to 29
percent of the population. However, progress varied geographically, with most prosperity concentrated in
urban areas, particularly in and around Ho Chi Minh City. In general, rural areas also made progress, as rural
households living in poverty declined from 66 percent of the total in 1993 to 30 percent in 2002. By
contrast, concentrations of poverty remained in certain rural areas, particularly the northwest, north-central
coast, and central highlands.
 Government control of the economy and a nonconvertible currency have protected Vietnam from
what could have been a more severe impact resulting from the East Asian financial crisis in 1997.
21. The Vietnamese Doi Moi campaign ......
A. has not interfered with politics B. has focused on centralized economy
C. is not in favour of socialism D. came into being in 1986

22. From the content of the passage, the readers can learn that ......
A. Vietnam used to have agricultural collectives
B. there used to be many foreign-owned enterprises before 1986 in Vietnam
C. before 1986, the Vietnamese government did not control prices on agricultural goods
D. the Vietnamese Doi Moi campaign has not allowed foreign-owned enterprises
23. Which rate has decreased ?
