IV. Read the passage, and choose the best answer.
Good manners are a treasure to the people who possess them, as well as to the
community they live in. Manners are taught, learnt, and passed from generation to
generation.
Even hundreds of years ago, children were taught to behave responsibly. They learnt to
respect seniority. When they passed an object to another person, they had to use both
hands. When they entered a room, they had to bow and greet the oldest person first.
Boys learnt to work hard to support their families. Girls learnt to do housework, and to
take care of others. Loyalty and honesty were highly appreciated. When they made a
mistake, they would not let another person be punished for it. That would be cowardly
and mean. They were taught that families were strong, and everybody should stick
together in adversity.(tai họa, nghịch cảnh)
Fortunately, many of these values have been well preserved. They have contributed to
making the unique Vietnamese culture, and strengthening our society.
