"Li xi" is an important part in Vietnam’s customs of Tet Festival, especially with children. It
is a small amount of money that can bring good fortune to the upcoming year. However, "li
xi" is not limited only on the first day, but can even last to the 9th or 10th day of Tet
Festival, and given when the adults first met the kids.

Besides the money, the tiny red envelope also has its own meaning. It represents the secrecy
and privacy to avoid comparison as adults want children to regard the money as the gift of
New Year, instead of being jealous of receiving less than other kids. The red color, the most
popular color appearing in Vietnamese festivals, signifies the prosperity and great luck
according to Asian’s beliefs.

In the morning of the first day of Lunar New Year, children and parents will visit
grandparents’ home, wishing for a happy new year and great health, showing respect and
gratitude, and giving gifts. After that, it is grandparents and adults’ turn to give children
lucky money to welcome their new age.

words in A with their meanings in B.

A recent survey conducted by TIRA, a Vietnamese research company, highlights problems


about the lifestyles of Vietnamese teenagers in urban areas. There is an imbalance in their
consumption of time for studying and recreational activities. On average, these teenagers
spend 9.5 hours a day on studies at school and at home. They only have about four hours for
entertainment. Most of this time is spent on watching television and the internet, where they
chat through social networks. The teenagers admit that they use computers to play games
and to chat with friends much more than using it for studying purposes. The survey also
shows that during summer months, despite having much more free time than during school
years, these teenagers still fail to manage their time properly. They stay in bed longer, and
then get hooked on games and TV. The time for computers and TV increases significantly to
about five or six hours a day, while there is almost no time for physical outdoor activities.
