Questions 13-18
Read the text and questions below. Choose the best answer to each of the questions. On the
answer sheet, circle A, B, C or D.
Kot is not like any other foreign investors in Vietnam that I have met.
His full name is Rafi Kot, the 55-year-old general director of Family Medical Practice
Vietnam, a chain of healthcare clinics with eight facilities in the whole country. Kot arrived
in Vietnam in 1988, maybe earlier than most other foreign investors, and has been staying
since then and may stay forever. For a man who speaks of himself as a perfectionist, Kot says
he cannot just leave Vietnam yet because his duty in this country is not completed yet.
Actually, as a doctor who joined a charity program started by a German nongovernmental organization, his destination should have been Africa rather than Vietnam, but
then fate brought him to this Southeast Asian country when another doctor in the program
could not make his way to Vietnam, and Kot was chosen in replacement.
His first stop in Vietnam was in the northern province of Ninh Binh, where he and his
team were in charge of developing healthcare services for an expected period of six months.
Recalling the days when he first arrived in Ninh Binh, Kot says he was in shock when seeing
the poor lives of local people, whom he describes as rustic people, or “nha que” in his perfect
Vietnamese, along with the out-of-date healthcare facilities and equipment there. At that
moment, Kot knew he wanted to be a part of developing ahealthcare system for Vietnam.
13
“I love challenges and want to work for changes. I love this country and want to make
a contribution to its development,” Kot says. “If everything was too easy, I would get bored
and there would be no reason for me to stay.”
In 1994, Kot opened his first healthcare center in Vietnam. In 2002, he got married to
a Vietnamese woman and now has two sons and a daughter. “I love my family very much,
and I love Vietnam as well,” Kot says. And that love has made him stay in this country,
despite many difficulties.
13. Where did Kot originally plan to go when he joined the German charity program?
A. Africa
B. Asia
C. Australia
D. Europe
14. What does “his” in the last line of the second paragraph refer to?
A. another doctor
C.
B. fate
Kot
D. Vietnam
15. What kept Kot back in Vietnam after the first six months in Ninh Binh?
A. his friends in Ninh Binh
B. his family
C. his ambition for change
D. the German organisation
16. The word “out-of-date” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A. different
B. expensive
C.
D. useless
old
17. What is the best word to describe Kot’s life in Vietnam now?
A. Boring
B. difficult
C. exciting
D. happy
18. Where is this passage most likely to be found?
A. A business journal
B. A personal website
C. A doctor’s diary
D. A newspaper
Part 4
Questions 19-25
Read the text below about a city in central Vietnam called Hue. Read the questions and
decide if each sentence is correct or incorrect. If it is correct, circle T (True) on the answer
sheet. If it is incorrect, circle F (False) on the answer sheet.
14
Hue is a city in central Vietnam. This city used to be the national capital during the
Nguyễn Dynasty from 1802 to 1945. Since then, it has remained a peaceful city with many
tourist attractions. With the Perfume River winding its way through the heart of the city, Hue
is divided into two halves. To the north of the river, most of the construction still retains
traces from the past, while the south side has seen much faster growth with high buildings
and shopping areas.
Hue is home to a big cultural event every two years, the Hue Festival. This is a great
chance for not only Hue locals but also international artists and performers to come and share
their cultures. This event brings together the best cultural traditions of different countries
around the world to this picturesque city in the heart of Vietnam. Despite all the fastchanging trends of the modern society, this event helps to preserve traditional cultural values.
Hue also boasts some of the best historical values in Vietnam, making it one of the most
desirable destinations for both domestic and international visitors. Here tourists can enjoy the
royal atmosphere by visiting several royal tombs and especially the Imperial City which was
home to the Nguyễn Dynasty. Local specialties are also plentiful, ranging from the famous
clam rice to a variety of traditional cakes made from rice flour. Here you can also go and
experience the local traditions by visiting and shopping at some handicraft villages a dozen
kilometers from the city center. Despite the introduction of mass production industries, it is
amazing that several traditional and hand-made local products remain popular among Hue
local people as well as tourists.
In the modern times, Hue has also become a busy urban area. Among the traditional
markets are big shopping centers, and beside traditional restaurants are exotic fast food stores
like the KFC or Lotteria. Although more cars run on local roads, you can still find several
men leisurely riding tricycles (or ‘xich-lo’) along the streets taking tourists on sight-seeing
tours of the city. It is pleasing to see the co-existence of the old and new in one single city
like Hue.
