HISTORY
The Temple of Literature - Văn Miếu - is in Hà Nội. It is at the corner of Nguyễn Thái Học
Street, Tôn Đức Thắng Street and Quốc Tử Giám Street. King Lý Thánh Tông built the temple
in 1070 to worship Confucius. Six years later, King Lý Nhân Tông built a school - Quốc Tử
Giám - behind the Temple to teach members of the royal family. In 1253, King Trần Thái Tông
opened the school to everybody and made it a place for all talented people. In 1484, King Lê
Thánh Tông started to build stone stelae on tortoises to honor the most outstanding doctors.
Today, students often visit the temple before exams. They come here and show respect to the
tortoises. They believe that it will bring luck and help them do better in exams.

SCIENCE
Antibiotics
(Thuốc kháng sinh)
1 _______________
Antibiotics are very important medicines in our lives. Doctors use them to fight many different
kinds of infections. Before 1928 scientists didn't know about them! At that time lots of people
died for unimportant reasons such as cuts on the skin. Alexander Fleming, a Scottish scientist,
discovered an antibiotic called penicillin-just by mistake! Now, we use antibiotics all the time to
protect us from bacteria.
2 _______________
However, antibiotics are not for all illnesses. Doctors will not give patients antibiotics if these
patients have the flu or a cold or a food allergy.
3 _______________
Unnecessary antibiotics can even be harmful when we don't have a bacterial infection. If we take
unnecessary antibiotics, they may not work when bacteria attack our body. Therefore, you should
not buy or take antibiotics without doctor's advice. When you have to take antibiotics, you
should strictly follow the doctor's instructions.
4 _______________
Better still, you should take care of your health. You should give up bad habits and do regular
exercise. If we do so, we may not need to use antibiotics so often.
