IV.
Read the passage, then decide if the
statements that follow it are True or False. (1.0 pt)
The
ao dai, the traditional dress of
Vietnamese women, has a long history. In the early 17th century,
Vietnamese clothing designers made changes to the design of the traditional
Chinese costume, creating the primitive forms of the present ao dai. This creativity showed Vietnam’s
strong sense of independence. The ao dai,
with different designs and materials, was traditionally worn by both men and
women. Over the years, despite the coming of western clothing for more
convenience in daily activities of modern life, the ao dai has been there to
stay. Therefore, Vietnamese women go on wearing this unique dress, which is
both traditional and fashionable and which conveys our rich culture to the
world.
19. The ao dai had its start at the beginning of the 17th
century.
20. Vietnamese ao dai and Chinese dresses are exactly the same.
21. Both men and women wore the ao dai in Vietnam many years back.

inconvenient in modern life, the ao dai
is uniquely fashionable.
