II. Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question (1m)
There have been changes in family structure and values in Viet Nam because of
industrialisation and modernisation. The Vietnamese family now exists in two major forms: nuclear
families (two generations) and extended families (from three generations upwards). The nuclear
family is the most common. The nuclear family now does not stand on its own, but it always receives
support and assistance from wider families (parents, brothers and wider kin).
Major basic family relationship has changed positively. Modern values have been selected carefully
while traditional values are preserved and developed. Children obey and respect their parents while
maintaining their independent ideas and views. Parents respect their children's independence out of
their love and indulgence. The relationship between grandparents and parents is also noticeable.
Parents and grandparents tend to live together with their children and grandchildren. This traditional
cultural feature distinguishes itself from that of modern western society. Statistics show that the
elderly play an important role in the family. At present, parents or grandparents living together with
children or grandchildren has several advantages.
Social-educational role plays an important role in the Vietnamese family because it contributes to
forming individual's personality. This issue receives particular attention from all family members.
Many families invest time and money in caring for and educating their children while some parents
regrettably cannot afford time to care for and educate their children.
