Early western travelers, whether to Persia, Turkey, or China frequently remark on the absence of changes in fashion there. On the other hand, people of these cultures believe that there is an instability and lack of order in western culture. The Japanese always boast that clothing in their culture has not changed in over a thousand years. Of course there is considerable evidence that there has been rapidly changing fashions in all parts of the world. Changes in costume often take place at times of economic or social change, followed by a long period without major changes. The beginnings of fashion and the wearing of different clothes in Europe can be dated to the middle of 14th century. The most dramatic change was a sudden shortening and tightening of the male over garment, sometimes also stuffing the chest area to make it look bigger. The pace of change accelerated during the following century and women and men's fashion became more complex and diverse.

Although tailors and dressmakers were no doubt responsible for many innovations in style, the textile industry certainly has been very influential. The four major fashion capitals are considered to be Milan, New York, Paris, and London. Fashion weeks are held in these cities where designers exhibit their new clothing collections to audiences; these cities are also where all the headquarters of the greatest fashion companies in the world are located.

Westerners today have a wide selection choice of clothes available. What a person chooses to wear can reflect their personality or likes. When people who have cultural status start to wear new or different clothes, a fashion trend may start. People who like them may start to wear clothes of a similar style. Fashions may vary considerably within a society according to age, social class, generation, occupation and geography, as well as over the passing of time. If, for example, an older person dresses according to the fashion of young people, he or she may look ridiculous in the eyes of both young and older people. The terms “fashionista” and “fashion victim” refer to someone who slavishly follows current fashions. The fashion industry is a product of the modern era. Prior to the mid-19th century, most clothing was custom- made. It was hand-made for individuals, either as home production or on order from dressmakers and tailors. Although the fashion industry developed first in Europe and America, today it is an international industry, with clothing often designed in one country, produced in another, and sold worldwide. At the beginning of the 20th century, fashion magazines began to include photographs of various fashion designs and became even more influential on people than in the past. These magazines had many effects on the clothing tastes of the public. "Vogue", founded in the US in 1892, has been one of the most successful of these magazines. Though colors and patterns of textiles change from year to year, the cut of a gentleman's coat or the pattern to which a lady's dress was cut changes more slowly. Men's fashions largely derived from military models. Women's fashions mainly derived from geographical and regional customs.

Những du khách phương Tây xưa, dù là Ba Tư, Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ, hay Trung Quốc thường xuyên nhận xét về sự vắng mặt của những thay đổi trong thời trang. Mặt khác, người dân của các nền văn hoá tin rằng có một sự mất ổn định và thiếu trật tự trong văn hoá phương Tây. Người Nhật luôn khoe rằng quần áo trong nền văn hoá của họ đã không thay đổi trong hơn một nghìn năm. Tất nhiên có bằng chứng đáng kể rằng thời trang đã thay đổi nhanh chóng ở tất cả các nơi trên thế giới. Thay đổi trang phục thường diễn ra vào những thời điểm thay đổi về kinh tế hay xã hội, tiếp theo là một thời gian dài mà không có những thay đổi lớn. Sự khởi đầu của thời trang và mặc quần áo khác nhau ở châu Âu có thể được hẹn hò vào giữa thế kỷ 14. Sự thay đổi mạnh mẽ nhất là sự rút ngắn đột ngột và thắt chặt của người đàn ông qua hàng may mặc, đôi khi cũng nhồi vùng ngực để làm cho nó lớn hơn. Tốc độ thay đổi tăng nhanh trong thế kỷ tiếp theo và phụ nữ và thời trang của nam giới trở nên phức tạp và đa dạng hơn.

Mặc dù thợ may không nghi ngờ gì về nhiều đổi mới về phong cách, ngành dệt may chắc chắn đã có ảnh hưởng rất lớn. Bốn thủ đô thời trang nổi tiếng là Milan, New York, Paris và London. Tuần lễ thời trang được tổ chức ở những thành phố này, nơi các nhà thiết kế giới thiệu bộ sưu tập quần áo mới của họ cho khán giả; những thành phố này cũng là nơi mà tất cả các trụ sở chính của các công ty thời trang lớn nhất trên thế giới được đặt.

Người phương Tây hiện nay có rất nhiều lựa chọn về quần áo. Những gì một người chọn để mặc có thể phản ánh cá tính hoặc thích của họ. Khi những người có địa vị văn hoá mặc quần áo mới hoặc khác nhau, xu hướng thời trang sẽ bắt đầu. Những người thích họ có thể bắt đầu mặc quần áo của một phong cách tương tự. Thời trang có thể thay đổi đáng kể trong một xã hội theo tuổi, tầng lớp xã hội, thế hệ, nghề nghiệp và địa lý, cũng như về thời gian. Ví dụ, nếu người cao tuổi mặc trang phục theo thời trang của những người trẻ tuổi, họ có thể trông thật lố bịch trong mắt cả người trẻ và người lớn tuổi. Thuật ngữ "thời trang" và "nạn nhân thời trang" chỉ những người theo thời trang hiện đại. Ngành công nghiệp thời trang là một sản phẩm của thời kỳ hiện đại. Trước giữa thế kỷ 19, hầu hết quần áo được làm theo yêu cầu của khách hàng. Nó được làm bằng tay cho các cá nhân, hoặc là sản xuất tại nhà hoặc theo yêu cầu của nhà may vá và thợ may. Mặc dù ngành công nghiệp thời trang phát triển đầu tiên ở châu Âu và Mỹ, ngày nay nó là một ngành công nghiệp quốc tế, với quần áo thường được thiết kế ở một quốc gia, sản xuất ở nước khác, và được bán trên toàn thế giới. Vào đầu thế kỷ 20, các tạp chí thời trang bắt đầu bao gồm những bức ảnh về các kiểu thiết kế thời trang khác nhau và thậm chí còn có ảnh hưởng nhiều hơn đến con người hơn là trong quá khứ. Những tạp chí này có nhiều ảnh hưởng đến sở thích quần áo của công chúng. "Vogue", được thành lập ở Mỹ vào năm 1892, là một trong những tạp chí thành công nhất. Mặc dù màu sắc và kiểu dáng của hàng dệt may thay đổi theo từng năm, việc cắt lớp áo của quý ông hoặc mô hình mà trang phục của một cô gái bị cắt giảm chậm hơn. Thời trang của nam giới chủ yếu bắt nguồn từ các mô hình quân sự. Các thời trang của phụ nữ chủ yếu xuất phát từ phong tục địa lý và khu vực.

I would like to talk about the Lunar New Year festival, also known as the Tet holiday, which is the occasion expected the most by Vietnamese people every year. The festival usually lasts for around 7 days, and it takes place when a new year comes according to the lunar calendar.

The Lunar New Year festival takes place because it is one of the most well-known traditions of Vietnam. Our people have been celebrating this occasion for thousands of years, and although there has been some recent argument about whether we should stop celebrating this festival, I do not think this activity will come to an end soon, at least not in the short term.

There are some common things that people do during this festival. Perhaps the most important thing is that people who work and study in big cities would go back to their hometown to celebrate the new year with their families and relatives. The new year festival is one of very few occasions that families can gather together, so it is easy to understand why everyone in Vietnam expects this festival so much. Another thing that we usually do is that we give children some “lucky money” with the hope that it will bring fortune to those kids. We also have some other activities such as making “chung” cake, visiting temples and pagodas… and so on.

The new year festival is so important to me and also to all Vietnamese citizens. The reason is because we get more days off from work and study, and therefore we have more time to spend with our families and our loved ones. It is also a great time to think about what we have done in the previous year, and to make plans for the upcoming year.

Tôi muốn nói về Tết Nguyên Đán, còn được gọi là dịp Tết, đó là dịp mà mọi người Việt Nam mong muốn hàng năm. Tết thường kéo dài khoảng 7 ngày, và nó diễn ra khi một năm mới đến theo âm lịch.

Tết Nguyên đán diễn ra bởi vì đây là một trong những truyền thống nổi tiếng nhất của Việt Nam. Nhân dân chúng tôi đã tổ chức kỷ niệm này hàng ngàn năm, và mặc dù đã có một số tranh luận gần đây về việc liệu chúng ta nên ngừng ăn mừng lễ hội này, tôi không nghĩ rằng hoạt động này sẽ sớm kết thúc, ít nhất là trong thời gian ngắn.

Có một số điều phổ biến mà mọi người làm trong lễ hội này. Có lẽ điều quan trọng nhất là những người làm việc và học tập tại các thành phố lớn sẽ quay trở lại quê hương để mừng năm mới với gia đình và người thân. Lễ hội năm mới là một trong những dịp rất hiếm hoi mà các gia đình có thể tập hợp lại, vì vậy rất dễ hiểu vì sao mọi người ở Việt Nam đều mong đợi lễ hội này rất nhiều. Một điều khác thường làm là chúng tôi cho trẻ tiền lì xì với hy vọng rằng nó sẽ mang lại tài sản cho những đứa trẻ đó. Chúng tôi cũng có một số hoạt động khác như làm bánh chưng , thăm đền chùa ... và như vậy.

Tết năm mới rất quan trọng đối với tôi và cho tất cả công dân Việt Nam. Lý do là vì chúng ta có nhiều ngày nghỉ việc và học tập, và do đó chúng ta có nhiều thời gian hơn để dành cho gia đình và những người thân yêu. Đây cũng là thời gian tuyệt vời để suy nghĩ về những gì chúng tôi đã làm trong năm trước và để hoạch định kế hoạch cho năm tới.

Read the following passage and choose A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

   If we believe that clothing has to do with covering the body, and costume with the choice of a particular form of garment for a particular use, then we can say that clothing depend primarily on such physical conditions as climate, health, and textile manufacture, whereas costume reflect social factors such as religious beliefs, aesthetics, personal status, and the wish to be distinguished from or to emulate our fellows.

   The ancient Greeks and the Chinese believed that we first covered our bodies for some physical reason such as protecting ourselves from the weather elements. Ethnologists and psychologists have invoked psychological reasons: modesty in the case of ancients, and taboo, magical influence and the desire to please for the moderns.

   In early history, costume must have fulfilled a function beyond that of simple utility, perhaps through some magical significance, investing primitive man with the attributes of other creatures. Ornaments identified the wearer with animals, gods, heroes or other men. This identification remains symbolic in more sophisticated societies. We should bear in mind that the theater has its distant origins in sacred performances, and in all period children at play have worn disguises, so as to adapt gradually to adult life.

   Costume helped inspire fear or impose authority. For a chieftain, costume embodied attributes expressing his power, while a warrior’s costume enhanced his physical superiority and suggested he was superhuman. In more recent times, professional or administrative costume has been devised to distinguish the wearer and express personal or delegated authority; this purpose is seen clearly in the judge’s robes and the police officer’s uniform. Costume denotes power, and since power is usually equated with wealth, costume came to be an expression of social caste and material prosperity. Military uniform denotes rank and is intended to intimidate, to protect the body and to express membership in a group. At the bottom of the scale, there are such compulsory costumes as the convict’s uniform. Finally, costume can possess a religious significance that combines various elements: an actual or symbolic identification with a god, the desire to express this in earthly life, and the desire to enhance the wearer’s position of respect.

Question: Which of the following would most likely NOT be reflected in a person’s costume, as it is defined in the passage?

A. Having a heart condition

B. Playing in a baseball game

C. Working in a hospital

D. Participating in a religious ceremony

   In early history, costume must have fulfilled a function beyond that of simple utility, perhaps through some magical significance, investing primitive man with the attributes of other creatures. Ornaments identified the wearer with animals, gods, heroes or other men. This identification remains symbolic in more sophisticated societies. We should bear in mind that the theater has its distant origins in sacred performances, and in all period children at play have worn disguises, so as to adapt gradually to adult life.

   Costume helped inspire fear or impose authority. For a chieftain, costume embodied attributes expressing his power, while a warrior’s costume enhanced his physical superiority and suggested he was superhuman. In more recent times, professional or administrative costume has been devised to distinguish the wearer and express personal or delegated authority; this purpose is seen clearly in the judge’s robes and the police officer’s uniform. Costume denotes power, and since power is usually equated with wealth, costume came to be an expression of social caste and material prosperity. Military uniform denotes rank and is intended to intimidate, to protect the body and to express membership in a group. At the bottom of the scale, there are such compulsory costumes as the convict’s uniform. Finally, costume can possess a religious significance that combines various elements: an actual or symbolic identification with a god, the desire to express this in earthly life, and the desire to enhance the wearer’s position of respect.

A. physical protection

As far as we know every country has their traditional clothes. Ao Dai is known as traditional Vietnamese clothes especially women. Early versions of the “Ao Dai” date back to 1744 when Lord Vu Vuong of the Nguyen Dynasty decided both men and women should wear an outfit of pants and a gown that buttoned down the front.

As far as we know every country has their traditional clothes. Ao Dai is known as traditional Vietnamese clothes especially women. Early versions of the “Ao Dai” date back to 1744 when Lord Vu Vuong of the Nguyen Dynasty decided both men and women should wear an outfit of pants and a gown that buttoned down the front. The word "ao dai" was originally applied to the outfit worn at the court of the Nguyễn Lords at Huế in the 18th century. This outfit evolved into, a five-paneled aristocratic gown worn in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Inspired by Paris fashions, Nguyễn Cát Tường and other artists associated with Hanoi University redesigned the ngũ thân as a modern dress in the 1920s and 1930s.[3] The updated look was promoted by the artists and magazines of (Self-Reliant Literary Group) as a national costume for the modern era. In the 1950s, Saigon designers tightened the fit to produce the version worn by Vietnamese women today.[3] The dress was extremely popular in South Vietnam in the 1960s and early 1970s. On Tết and other occasions, Vietnamese men may wear (brocade robe), a version of the ao dai made of thicker fabric..What wasn’t, until 1930 that “Ao Dai”appear similar to what it looks today. Now, Men wear it less, generally only on ceremonial occasions such as weddings or funerals. During the 1950s two tailors in Saigon started producing “Ao Dai”with raglan sleeves. This creates a diagonal seam running from the collar to the underarm. This style is still preferred today. “Ao Dai”is made individually to fit each customer's shape to create the most flasttering look. Its body-hugging top flows over wide trousers that brush the floor. The pants should reach the soles of the feet and flow along the floor. Splits in the gown extend well above waist height and make it comfortable and easy to move in. Comfortability is always taken into account for fashions and beauty. Tailors must be skills so as to ensure the wearer has freedom of movement. Despite it being a long robe, “Ao Dai” is cool to wear. Synthetic or silk fabrics are best to use being they do not crush and dry quickly. For this reason “Ao Dai” is a practical uniform for daily wear. The color can show the wearer's age and status. Young girls wear pure white, fully-lined outfits symbolizing their purity. Older but unmarried girls move into soft pastel shades. Only married women wear “Ao Dai”in strong, rich colors, usually over white or black pants. “Ao Dai”is rarely seen in places where manual work is practiced. In the nineties the Ao dai become popular again. It has become standard and common attire for female students as well and staff at offices and hotels. Ao dai nowadays is very popular with different designs and colors. “Ao Dai”has become the most preferred dress for formal occasions and traditionally ceremonies. Nowadays, “Ao Dai” has been modified. Its length is cut shorter usually just below the knee. Variations in the neck, between boat and mandarin style, are common. Adventurous alterations such as a low scooped neckline, puffed sleeves or off the shoulder designs are appearing as ladies experiment with fashion. Access to new fabrics have made for some interesting design most visitors to Vietnam admire local tailors' skills when making ao dai. ashion designers want to change the traditional ao dai. Some have printed lines of poetry on the ao dai, so they look modern and very fashionable. Other designers have taken inspiration from Vietnam’s ethnic minorities. They have visited villages and studied traditional designs and symbols such as suns, stars, crosses, and stripes. They have added these patterns to the ao dai, so Vietnamese women can continue to wear the unique dress, which is now both traditional and fashionable.
