Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question:
             Over thousands of years, the culture of Vietnam has been strongly influenced by neighboring China, Indonesia, India and its former colonizer, France. Due to Vietnam's long association with China, Vietnamese culture remains strongly Confucian with its emphasis on familial duty. Education is highly valued. Historically, passing the imperial Mandarin exams was the only means for Vietnamese people to socially advance themselves. For many decades, foreign cultural influences were shunned and emphasis placed on appreciating and sharing the culture of communist nations such as the former Soviet Union, China, Cuba and others. Since the 1990s, Vietnam has seen a greater exposure to Southeast Asian, European and American culture and media. The traditional uniform called "Ao Dai" is worn in specia occasions such as weddings or Lunar New Year celebration or festivals. “Ao Dai” was once worn by both genders but today it is worn mainly by females. Vietnamese cuisine is very healthy and flavorful, using very little oil and many vegetables. The main dishes are often based on rice, soy sauce, and fish sauce.
