The ancient town of Hoi An lies on the Thu Bon River, 30 km south of Da Nang. It was
formerly a major trading centre in Southeast Asia between the 16
th
and 17
th
centuries.
Hoi An is famous for its temples, pagodas, small tile-roofed houses and narrow streets.
All the houses were made of wood and their pillars were carved with ornamental designs.
One of the main attractions of Hoi An is the Japanese Covered Bridge, which was built
in the 16
th
century and is still well-preserved. The house was built in 1855 and still keeps
many precious objects that belonged to the Chinese community of Hoi An. Another
attractive address to tourists is Tan Ky House, which was constructed nearly two centuries
ago as a house for the Vietnamese merchant. The house now looks almost exactly as it did in
the early 19
th
century.

III .READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage and answer the questions: (2.0 ms)
Whales are mammals that live their entire lives in the water. Some whales are huge. The blue
whale, for example, grows to 30 meters in length and over 200 tons in weight. Whales may also be
the most intelligent animals in the ocean. Whales like to feed in the cold oceans where there is a lot
of krill- their favorite food. Cold water in the North and South Atlantic Ocean and the North and
South Pacific are good feeding grounds for whales.
Whale populations decrease quickly due to heavy hunting pressure. Conservation groups
asked the International Whaling Commission to stop whaling. However, Native American hunters,
such as the Eskimo, are still allowed to hunt a limited number of whales to feed their communities. If
no effective measures were taken to protect whales, these wonderful animals would disappear
forever.
