Question VII. Reading the passage ( 1,25points)

We are Khmer Krom, one  of the biggest ethnic groups in the south of  Vietnam. We live by farming mostly rice – and fishing on the Mekong River. Life is sometimes hard as our work depends heavily on the weather. When it is not harvest time, the men of the village go fishing from early morning and don’t  return until late afternoon. By the time they return, most of  the village women will be waiting for them on the river bank. They wait to buy the fish, which they will later sell at the local market or bringto the nearby town for a higher price. We children will be there too. We love running around the beach  and waiting for the boats to come in.

Our most important festival of the year is the Chol Chnam Thmay, which celebrates the New Year. It falls in mid-April. Every family tries to prepare well for the festive activities. The community also visits and helps poor families so that everybody has a happy New Year.
