Suggested solutions for the literature exam are as follows:
I. READING COMPREHENSION (3.0 points)
Read the excerpt:
I once stood in front of a river and watched the water flow. Flowing in the morning, flowing in the evening, and flowing in the dark. And I thought about the history of creation. The history of artistic creation in this world is like the flow of a river. It never stops. This generation of water follows the previous generation of water to create the magnificent beauty of rivers. Just like this generation of artists follows the next generation of artists to create the history of human art. Generations of artists always bring new life to art. They receive inspiration from the previous generation. Without the previous generations of artists, the artists of the next generation would not have the resources to create and explore. But without the artists of the next generation, art begins to fall into stagnation and goes to destruction. Everything is like the movement of water in a river. The freshness in the flow of water is the life of the river. The next generation of artists simply copying the art of previous artists is the "stopping of flow" of the river of art. And that is death.
Never separate yesterday's water from today's water. Do not separate generations of water from the river, just as do not separate generations of artists from the flow of art. The vast ocean is not a motionless mass. It contains drops of water in its profound and sublime unity.
If we separate each drop of water from the unity of the ocean, we will only see small, isolated drops that gradually disappear. When I touch the river, I see the purity and the flow of water.
In the purity and flow of water today is contained the purity and flow of water from thousands of years ago.
(Excerpt from The River and Generations of Water, Nguyen Quang Thieu)

In the excerpt Country (excerpt from the epic poem Road of Aspiration), poet Nguyen Khoa Diem wrote:
When we grow up, the Country is already there.
The Country is in the "once upon a time..." stories that my mother often told.
The Country begins with the betel nut you are chewing now.
The country grew up when its people knew how to grow bamboo to fight the enemy.
Mom's hair is tied at the back of her head.
Parents love each other with spicy ginger and salty salt
The beam and the column become the name
Rice grains must be sun-dried, milled, pounded, winnowed and sifted.
The Country has existed since that day...
Land is where I go to school
Water is where I bathe
The Country is where we meet
The Country is where I dropped my scarf in secret memories
Land is where "the phoenix flies to the silver mountain"
Water is where "the fisherman's claws lead the sea"
Time is endless
Vast space
The country is where our people reunite

Reading comprehension Writing
Question 1: What has made the history of human art is that this generation of artists follows the previous generation of artists.
Sentence 2: Without previous generations of artists, the artists of the next generation would not have the resources to create and explore.
Sentence 3: The association of the flow of the river with the history of artistic creation in the excerpt has given readers a reasonable and poetic overview of artistic creation. The author has presented to readers that the movement of the river is like the freshness in the flow of art. The succession of the next generation is the life of a river. If there is no next generation of artists or the next generation only copies from previous artists, then that is the cessation of the flow of the river of art.
Question 4: From the author's reflection "If we separate each drop of water from the unity of the ocean, we will only see small, lonely drops of water that gradually disappear", what lesson do you learn about your own lifestyle?
Society in particular and humanity in general are an ocean and each of us is just a drop of water. If we separate from the collective and the community, we will be alone and destroyed. This affirms that we cannot survive if we separate from the collective, which is the family, society and the country. Therefore, we must be grateful for the care and sharing that our family and society give us. From there, we must live responsibly towards our family and country.

Suggested solution:
In today's society, individuality, with its distinct characteristics of character, interests, lifestyle and views, creates diversity and richness in the community. "Respect differences" is a fairly common saying in today's world.
When we respect individuality, we not only accept differences but also encourage healthy freedom of self-expression. This creates conditions for each person to develop their potential and strengths, build relationships based on respect and empathy. Respecting individuality helps us broaden our understanding, overcome cultural barriers and build strong and rich communities. Miss H'Hen Niê, in the Miss Universe pageant, confidently expressed her personality, she was not self-conscious about her skin color but made it shine and become her own unique feature. Or singer Hoang Thuy Linh brought folk elements into her songs, expressing it with her own personality, becoming a trend that is widely popular around the world. In a class, there are people who are good at math and people who are good at literature. The best thing is that these two people respect each other's differences.
There are also young people who are not really confident in expressing their own personality or many people do not respect the individuality of others. That should be condemned and criticized. We, the young generation of the country, in addition to preserving the national cultural identity, also need to respect the depth and beauty of other ethnic cultures. It is the difference of each personality that has created a rich ocean of beautiful colors and created artistic peaks for mankind.

Topic
Content to be analyzed
1. Feelings about the Origin of the Country:
- Capitalize the noun Country: suggests solemnity and sacredness.
- "The Country Already Exists": It is impossible to determine exactly the origin of the country, the author affirms by stating the obvious truth.
- The country was built a long time ago, through many generations. Affirming the eternal existence of the country. The opening verse is both simple and solemn, mixed with pride.
- The phrase "Country" is repeated many times, emphasizing the origin of the country. At the same time, the long verse creates a rapid rhythm, making the poem rich in music.
- The country was formed with the birth of folk literature: Romantic, innocent fairy tales. The country is close and attached.
- The country was born with the ancient custom of chewing betel of the nation. Connection (Betel is the beginning of a story…). Betel has both material and spiritual value (love – affection – generational connection). The country originates from the smallest, simplest things.
- The country grew up with a tradition of patriotism from ancient times: the image of the bamboo tree is associated with the image of Saint Giong fighting to protect the country, the resilient and indomitable spirit of the Vietnamese people.
- The country exists in the love between husband and wife:
+ "Mother's hair is tied behind her head": The gentle, rustic, and kind beauty of the portrait of Vietnamese women.
+ Idiom "spicy ginger, salty salt": Loyal and lasting love, a lifestyle that values loyalty and love, and the beauty of eternal traditions.
- Country is the traditional cultural image of the nation:
+ The rafters and pillars: simple and plain but are the sturdy roof that protects from the sun and rain. The custom of naming children from familiar, close, rustic objects is closely connected to the surrounding life.
+ Rice is the staple food of Vietnamese people, associated with the long-standing wet rice culture.
+ Idiom "one sun two dews": the quality of hard work, diligence, hardship, and perseverance of working people.
+ List the tasks of "milling, pounding, winnowing, sieving...": Complicated steps that require perseverance, skill, and diligence to produce pure white rice.
- "The country was born from that day": The country was born from the deep depths of a folk culture, of long-standing customs and practices.
- To Nguyen Khoa Diem, the country is simple, close, familiar but very sacred.
A fresh approach to the country through many aspects: history, geography, culture... The poetic voice is rich in contemplation but also very profound and evocative.
2. The next 9 sentences: This is a poem that defines what a Country is in a very artistic way.
- Country is something close and dear:
The Country is close to us, the poet separates the Country into two elements, one element of yin, one element of yang to explain the Country in a simple but specific way.
Land is where I go to school
Water is where I bathe.
When the Country is separated into two elements, it is close to the lovely, memorable, and very familiar memories of a person's life. Separate the element LAND - to indicate the daily path he takes to school, the familiar path he has walked for many years to reach the school that provides him with knowledge to step into life, so that each of us can confidently master our lives. Separate the element WATER - is the river where you are cool, the river carries heavy alluvium to make the fields, sugarcane fields, and mulberry fields green. That rushing water is an endless source of love and deep gratitude.
- The place where love begins:
The country is where we meet
The country is where I dropped my scarf in secret memories.
When we date, the Country merges into one, becoming a poetic dating space, supporting and proving our love. The place where we date can be a communal house roof, a row of areca nuts, a bamboo fence, a small bamboo bridge... how harmonious and poetic! When two people love each other, the Country also lives in the secret memories of the couple "The Country is where I dropped my scarf in my secret memories". The verse is imbued with the essence of folk songs, typical of Vietnamese culture in the past. The image of the scarf and the memories remind us of the folk song filled with tears of missing our lover:
The handkerchief misses someone,
....
Tear tissue...
The place where you dropped your scarf is probably the place that bears the imprint of so many memories of two lovers. That place is also a part of the Country.
- A deeper explanation of the Country:
The beauty of the homeland is recreated in folk songs that exude pride in the majestic mountains and rivers, in the Dragon Father and Fairy Mother of the Vietnamese people, associated with gratitude to ancestors that is deeply ingrained in the subconscious of every Vietnamese person.
_ In terms of geography: The country is perceived as "immense space". It can be understood as mountains, rivers, borders, and water from the majestic Truong Son range - "The place where the phoenix flies to the silver mountain."
About history: The country is felt with the depth of "time". With a deep pride.
*Art:
-The lyrical and political writing style is skillfully used:
+With familiar and simple images, Nguyen Khoa Diem has aroused in the reader's soul a deep and passionate love for the country. He has brought the schoolyard and the scarf in silent memories to live forever through the endless time and immense space of a nation with four thousand years of history.
* Conclusion: The epic poem "Aspirational Road" with its poems about the country has helped the young generation of Vietnam love their country more and this is a work of art that has made Nguyen Khoa Diem's name immortal with the country.
