V-Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Ca Tru was also called “Hat A Dao” or “Hat Noi”. Originally, attractive young female singers
entertained men in a relaxed environment, sometimes serving drinks and snacks. Men might have visited a
“Hat A Dao” inn with friends to celebrate a successful business deal or the birth of a son.
 Ca Tru flourished in the 15th century in northern Vietnam when it was popular with the royal palace and
a favourite hobby of aristocrats and scholars. Later, it was performed in communal houses, inns, and private
homes, and gained its high popularity. These performances were mostly for men. When men entered a Ca Tru
inn, they purchased bamboo tally cards. In Chinese Vietnamese, “tru” means “card”, and “ca” means “song”
in Vietnamese, so the name Ca Tru means tally card songs. The tallies were given to the singers in
appreciation for the performance. After the performance each singer received payment in proportion to the
number of cards received.
Ca Tru requires at least three performers. The singer is always a woman and plays the “phach”, an
instrument made of wood or bamboo that is beaten with two wooden sticks. A musician accompanies the
singer on the “dan day”, a long-necked lute with three silk strings and 10 frets. There is also a drummer or
“trong chau”. The drummer shows his approval of the singer or the songs depending on how he hits the drum.
If he likes a song, he might hit the side of the drum twice. The “dan day” player must follow the rhythm of the
“phach”. His instrument, the “dan day”, is only used in CaTru and is now made almost exclusively for sale to
tourists.
