In the Mekong Delta, Long Dinh village of Tien Giang province is famous for its traditional
craft of weaving flowered mats. The mat’s high quality makes them popular domestically, and

weaving village in the northern province of Ninh Binh. However, the technique of weaving
sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with other places in the South, is somewhat different.
Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more attractive colours and patterns.


Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice. Long Dinh mat production mainly occurs
during the dry season, from January to April. Weavers have to work their hardest in May and
June, otherwise, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off finishing their
products till the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires, Long Dinh mat
producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than growing rice.


This trade provides employment for thousands of local labourers. At present, nearly 1,000
households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats. To better meet market demands, Long
Dinh mat weavers have created more products in addition to the traditional sedge mats.


Particularly, they are producing a new type of mat made from the dried stalks of water hyacinth,
a common material in the Mekong Delta.


Thanks to the planning and further investment, the mat weaving occupation has indeed
brought in more income for local residents. Their living standards have improved considerably,
resulting in better conditions for the whole village.

A. try to produce various types of products


B. stop producing the traditional sedge mats
C. produce new Products from rare material
D. for thousands of local labourers



2. We can infer from the sentence “Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice” that


.
