In the past, Vietnam's educational system was affected by many cultures, of which the Chinese and French had most significant influence.
The Imperial Academy - the first university in Vietnam - was built in 1076 under Emperor Ly Nhan Tong for the education of sons of royalty and other high-ranking officials. In 1252, the college was opened to students from various backgrounds besides royal or official ones.
Before the French came, the old-type Mandarin system administered Vietnam for approximately 2,000 years. As the French took over the government's administration, it was converted from a Confucian into a Western-oriented one.
In order to participate in the service under the French rule, the Vietnamese had to convert to the French system and were required to know the French language. In addition, they had to have a good facility with the new version of their language instead of the traditional Chinese characters which had been in use for hundreds of years.
At the beginning of 1900, the whole system was revised. An educational system of three levels was established; elementary, primary, and secondary education. In addition, the use of the national language (Quoc Ngu) was added to the curriculum. Emphasis was placed on rote learning, class discipline, and other French educational methods. Several new schools and colleges were established. Accordingly, French became the second language of much importance to the students.Question 22.

Only 1 in 10 teens eats the recommended amount of fruit and the only vegetable that many teens eat is "chip". Most teens in the developed world are eating too much but are still not getting the vital nutrients to help them grow and stay healthy. More information about nutrition and healthy eating is needed to help young people eat properly. Teens who diet often cut out food they need, such as bread or milk, because they think it is fattening. Others don't know what foods to choose in the school canteen in order to have a balanced diet. There is a saying "you are what you eat". So if you want to become the next David Beckham then you'd better start eating properly.
Lack of money in schools plus increased pressure to do well in the course exams means that teenagers are doing less sport in school than ever before. Girls, in particular, are more likely to suffer from lack of exercise and up to 4 in 10 girls stop playing sports in their early teenage years. Just because you aren't sporty doesn't mean you can't be active. Walk or cycle to school instead of taking the bus. Help at home with the housework or gardening. Go dancing with your friends. There are lots of ways you can stop being a couch potato!
If "we are what we eat" then sleep is like food for the brain. Teens need at least 9 hours' sleep every night and even mild sleepiness can affect your performance, humor and health. Lack of sleep can make you tired, angry or depressed. Nearly 40% of secondary school students go to bed after 11 p.m. on school nights and 15% of teens say they have fallen asleep during class. In the USA some schools are starting classes at 10 a.m. so that teens can get some extra sleep. These schools have noticed an improvement in their students' work.Question 18. The text suggests that teenagers _________. *   A. are healthier than their parents were   B. don't have enough information about healthy eating and lifestyle   C. sleep more than is needed   D. do more sports in schools than beforeQuestion 19. According to the texts, teens who go on a diet cut down on _________. *   A. vegetables   B. bread and milk   C. chips   D. meatQuestion 20.
