Read the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions:


Today, the lifestyles of Vietnamese people are changing, including how they prepare for the Tet (Lunar New Year) holidav and their entertainment during the festival.


According to Vietnamese tradition, the Tet is a time for every family to come together and enioy traditional foods, such as "banh chung", "gio" and "dua hanh".


But in recent years, the ways Vietnamese enjoy the Tet holidays have changed much. People, especially the well-off, love travelling to explore and relax, rather than remaining busy cooking and cleaning in their houses prior to Tet. This travelling helps ease the burden of housework for women, but it also causes the traditional Tet to lose its poetic flavour.


People who love the traditional Tet cannot forget the images of a pot of "banh chung" being cooked and evaporating during an evening close to the New Year's Eve. Adults and children sat around the pot, chatting. After a night in which they stayed awake, during the next morning, while the adults picked up the cakes, the children were eager to taste their own tiny cakes. But today, many Vietnamese families don’t cook square glutinous rice cakes themselves.

b)

The Vietnamese nowadays enjoy relaxing and travelling during the Tet.

c)
