The passage we must read to answer the first question is divided in two paragraphs. They do not discuss exactly the same thing - the first paragraph is about teachers, while the second one is about the writing system in Vietnam. However, they do have a theme in common: educational values. We learn that the Vietnamese people highly esteem their teachers as well as their independent identity, the latter being developed with the help of education, literacy.
The text does not say all teachers would become civil administrators. It does say that the test to become a civil administrator was quite challenging.
We can choose the word "manage" to substitute "conduct" in the passage, since both convey the idea of carrying something out. We can also see that the word "them" in the second paragraph is substituting the previously mentioned "Chinese characters" when the author says such characters were used for writing.
The second passage has blanks to be filled. A useful tip to solve this kind of question is to, first, <u>take a brief look at all the options and then read the whole passage.</u> Do not worry about finding the answers in order. Just give it a read, fill in the ones that are easier, more obvious, then work slowly with the others. Once you understand what the passage is about, it is <u>easier to figure which words should go where.</u>
For example, this passage, in particular, is explaining how a certain game is played. We know that, in games, it is possible to hand the turn to the other player. Thus, it makes sense to use the word "handed", option C, to complete number 8: the turn is handed to the other player.
