Câu 1: Đọc đoạn trích sau và trả lời câu hỏi

 “Chàng đi chuyến này, thiếp chẳng dám mong đeo được ấn phong hầu, mặc áo gấm trở về quê cũ, chỉ xin ngày về mang theo được hai chữ bình yên, thế là đủ rồi. Chỉ e việc quân khó liệu, thế giặc khôn lường. Giặc cuồng còn lẩn lút, quân triều còn gian lao, rồi thế chẻ tre chưa có, mà mùa dưa chín quá kì, khiến cho tiện thiếp băn khoăn, mẹ hiền lo lắng. Nhìn trăng soi thành cũ, lại sửa soạn áo rét, gửi người ải xa, trông liễu rủ bãi hoang, lại thổn thức tâm tình, thương người đất thú! Dù có thư tín nghìn hàng, cũng sợ không có cánh hồng bay bổng.”
