IX. Read the text about an artist. Choose the correct answer: A, B, or C.
You can’t buy a drawing by Julian Beever and you can’t see his work in a gallery or museum. Julian
makes his amazing pictures on the pavements of city streets. People have called him “the Pavement Picasso”
and perhaps you have seen his pictures on the Internet.
Julian has made hundreds of pieces of “pavement art” in different countries - in many parts of Europe
and also in the USA, Australia, Japan, Argentina, and Brazil.
His drawings can take three or four days to finish. But because he draws with chalk, the drawings only
stay for a short time. When people walk on them or when it rains, they quickly disappear. For Julian, this isn’t a
problem. The drawings survive in the photos he has taken, and this is the most important thing for him.
Julian’s fame hasn’t come from experts in the art world, but from the Internet. “The reason why my
work has become well known is because people like it and they’ve sent it to each other on the Internet,” he
says. “So I know that what I do is popular.”

teenagers saw Demetrius’s tag and started writing their own tags on walls, buses and subway trains all over
New York.
Then, some teenagers started writing their tags with aerosol paint. Their tags were bigger and more
colourful. Aerosol paint graffiti became very popular in the 1970s and 1980s and appearedon trains, buses and
walls around the world. In the 1990s and 2000s, a lot of graffiti artists started painting pictures.

Many students listen to music while they are studying, and say that it helps them learn. Many parents and
teachers say that music is just distracting, and that students are better studying in silence. Who is right?
In a study, some scientists asked three groups of students to listen to a piece of music by Mozart or a
relaxation tape for ten minutes, or just sit in silence for ten minutes. The students then did a ‘spatial reasoning’
89
test (a test about remembering shapes and imagining looking at objects from different directions), and the ones
who had listened to the Mozart did better in the test.
Taking part in musical activities and learning to play an instrument can improve verbal memory (the ability
to remember words). The longer the training lasts, the better the improvement in the memory. So, there’s no
excuse to give up the piano lessons!

them to support the family in the new year. Almost all Vietnamese children know about the legend and origin
of this traditional dish.This cake was invented by the 18'1' Prince of Hung Emperor. 3,000-4,000 years ago,
Prince Lang Lieu, made round and square cakes and brought them to the King. He explained the meaning of the
cakes to his father: the round cake was the symbol of the sky and the Square cake was the symbol of the Earth.
In the old belief of Vietnamese people, the Earth is square, so this cake's shape is square, too. Because of the
special meaning and delicious taste of the cakes, Lang Lieu became the next Emperor. Since then, in honor of
this 18th Prince, Vietnamese people always make and have Square cake in the Lunar New Year. It has become

Healthy eating is about feeling great and having more energy. If you choose the right foods, your

and salt is bad for your body.
Dairy products like milk, cheese, and yoghurt are great because they contain calcium and keep your
teeth and bones healthy. You should choose low-fat dairy products.
Meat, fish, eggs, beans, and nuts are important, too. They keep our bodies healthy and they give us
energy to work and play.
Whole grains are an important part of every meal. If you eat lots of whole grains, you will have a
healthy heart. Whole grains are in bread, cereal, pasta, and rice. Dark bread and brown rice are great sourcesof
whole grains.

vitamins. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables with every meal, and as snacks during the day. Fruit and vegetables
with darker colours have more vitamins.

Eating habits in Viet Nam
Meals in Viet Nam - lunch or dinner - must include rice. Traditionally, Vietnamese meals are prepared by
wives or mothers and the whole family is expected to eat. However, families now may have only one meal a
day at home, and it may not include all the family members.
Tastes, cooking methods and dishes are different between the three regions: the North, the Central, and the
South. Nowadays, these differences have become small.
When families do not have time to prepare meals, they eat out. Employees have lunch somewhere nearby the
work places.
Since Viet Nam opened its doors to foreign investors, more foreigners have stayed and worked in Viet Nam.
As a result, more foreign restaurants have been opened in Viet Nam, especially in big cities.
Young people in Viet Nam now like fast food because of its conveniences. Vietnamese food fast shops have
been opened, and the most successful Vietnamese fast food chain is Pho 24. In recent years, there have been
more Vietnamese fast food chains such as Bun Bo Hue 3A3.

price. Nowadays, often favored over long grain rice for its unique flavour and texture, broken rice is one of the
best-loved fares in Vietnam.
Local broken rice eateries can practically be found on every street in Saigon. A broken rice dish is served

The practice of holding royal examinations to select talented people for administrationbegan in 1075. It

more than 300 years, royal examinations had been irregularly, and the number of laureates for each exam was

years. From 1442, laureates of a royal examination were awarded the title “Tien si ” (Doctoral laureate), and

Chu Van An was born in 1292 and died in 1370. From his childhood, he was famous for his intelligence. He
did not have the dream of taking part in exams to become mandarins like other students. Chu Van An stayed at
home and taught himself by reading books, and opened schools. His school quickly became famous in the
region and many students from other places went there to study.
Emperor Tran Minh Tong invited Chu Van An to be the principal of the Imperial Academy to teach his crown
prince and other students to become talented people for the country. In 1359, Emperor Tran Minh Tong gave
his crown to his son, Tran Hien Tong, who was also a student of ChuVan An. Under the regime of Emperor
Tran Hien Tong, the court and the country were peaceful. However, this period lasted only for 12 years. Then
Emperor Tran Hien Tong died, and Tran Du Tong inherited the crown. The social situation became
complicated, the people were very poor and hard and many good people were killed.
Chu Van An bravely submitted a petition which requested the Emperor to behead 7 perfidious mandarins, so it
was called “Seven Beheaded Petition” (That Tram So). “Seven Beheaded Petition” became the symbol of the
courageous attitude of the real intellectuals, and of Chu Van An’s spirit.

Hue Temple of Literature
In Hue, the Temple of Literature is located on the bank of the Huong River, to the west of the Citadel, just 1
kilometer from Linh Mu Pagoda.
Hue Temple of Literature was built in 1908 during the reign of Emperor Gia Long, on the top of a hill. Over
the years afterwards, the temple has gone through several major I restoration works.
The remaining of the complex consists of about 50 architectural works, the biggest of which is the worshiping
hall of Confucius.

133
After going past the main gate, we would see several small houses where kings and mandarins would stop by
to prepare their costumes before going inside to attend the ceremony. At the front there are two rows of 32
stone tablets bearing the names of 239 successful candidates in National Examinations organized through the
Nguyen Dynasty. Although the monument has been damaged during the war, the main temple and especially
the Doctors’ stone tablets still remain.
Today, people visiting the Temple of Literature can see a unique symbol of Vietnam educational system
during the feudal times.

Chu Van An was born in 1292 in Van Thon village, QuangLiet commune, present day ThanhTri district,
Hanoi. In the early life, he was famous as a straightforward man who passed the doctoral examination but
refused to become a mandarin. Instead, he opened a school and began his career as a Confucian teacher in
Huynh Cung village in Thanh Tri. Under the reign of Tran Minh Tong, Chu Van An became a teacher at the
137
Imperial Academy where he was responsible for teaching the crown prince Vuong, the future emperor Tran
Hien Tong. Later, he resigned and returned to his home-village because Tran Du Tong refused his request of
beheading eight corrupted mandarins. For the rest of his life, Chu Van An continued his teaching career and
wrote books. He died of illness in 1370.

Van Mieu - Quoc Tu Giam (Temple of Literature - Imperial Academy)
The Temple of Literature was built in 1070 under the reign of Emperor Ly Thanh Tong to honour
Confucius and later used as a royal school, where Emperor Ly Nhan Tong studied when he was a five- year-old
prince.
140
The Imperial Academy, which can be considered Vietnam’s first university, was built in 1076 next to
the temple. Over the next seven centuries and more, theuniversity produced thousands of scholars for the
country. Under the reign of Emperor Tran Minh Tong (1314-1329), the teacher Chu Van An, was appointed the
school’s principal. After his death in 1370, Emperor Tran Nghe Tong (1321 - 1394) had him worshiped beside
Confucius at the Temple of Literature. Many schools in Vietnam are also named after Chu Ban An.
In 1946, the Imperial Academy in Hanoi was destroyed by French bombing, but gradually restored later.
To enter the main area of the Temple of Literature, visitors must go through three gates. The first gate is
called Van Mieu Mon; the second is called Dai Trung Mon and the third, Dai Thanh Mon.
In the space between Dai Trung Mon and Dai Thanh Mon is the one-storey, two-roof pavilion called
Khue Van Cac. Behind Khue Van Cac is the Thien Quang Tinh (Well of Heavenly Clarity), on either side of
which 41 Doctors’ stone tablets stand in two rows. They stand upon stone turtles with the names and
birthplaces of successful doctoral candidates from the examinations held at the Imperial Academy from 1484 to
1780.
Now as a major tourist site, the Temple of Literature - Imperial Academy also hosts award ceremonies
to recognize outstanding students. An annual poetry festival is held here on the 15th of the first lunar month.

Chu Van An was born in 1292 and died in 1370. From his childhood, he was famous for his intelligence. He
did not have the dream of taking part in exams to become mandarins like other students. Chu Van An stayed at
home and taught himself by reading books, and opened schools. His school quickly became famous in the
region and many students from other places went there to study.
Emperor Tran Minh Tong invited Chu Van An to be the principal of the Imperial Academy to teach his
crown prince and other students to become talented people for the country. In 1359, Emperor Tran Minh Tong
gave his crown to his son, Tran Hien Tong, who was also a student of Chu Van An. Under the regime of
Emperor Tran Hien Tong, the court and the country were peaceful. However, this period lasted only for 12
years. Then Emperor Tran Hien Tong died, and Tran Du Tong inherited the crown. The social situation became
complicated, the people were very poor and many good people were killed.
Chu Van An bravely submitted a petition which requested the Emperor to behead 7 perfidious mandarins,
so it was called “Seven Beheaded Petition” (That Tram So). “Seven Beheaded Petition” became the symbol of
the courageous attitude of the real intellectuals, and of Chu Van An’s spirit.

“were”.
2. My sister in law used to had long hair but now she has short hair.
had => have
Giải thích: Cấu trúc “S + used to + V” dùng để diễn tả hành động đã từng làm trong quá khứ mà bây giờ không
