Trong thời gian ôn IELTS hai năm trước, Queen có giữ lại các tài liệu mà Q đã sưu tập được, dùng cho phần nói và phần viết. Giờ muốn share lại cho các bạn cùng tham khảo! Vì bộ tài liệu này Q soạn cho mình Q học nên đôi khi có những phần trình bày không được khoa học lắm, thêm vào đó cũng không có ghi chú cẩn thận về resource của các bài viết, các bạn thông cảm giùm, và cũng đừng ai kiện Queen về tội ăn cắp bản quyền tác giả nhé, vì đây. | The Temple of Literature was built in October 1070 for the worship of sages and saints of Confucianism. Six years later (1076), the National College was established at the Temple of Literature and built at the rear. In the beginning, it was only for princes, but later was broadened to admit bright students nationwide. The Temple of Literature is completely surrounded by brick walls while inside the complex there are walls separating it into five areas. The first area begins at the main gate on which the words "Van Mieu Mon" (Disciple of Temple of Literature) have been inscribed. Under the gate, there are two stone dragons bearing the style of the Le So Dynasty. The main path leading to Dai Trung Mon gate starts the second area where there are two small gates on both sides. The same path leads to Khue Van Cac (literary coterie to enjoy the beauty of Khue star). There are also two small gates on both sides of Khue Van Cac. The third section is formed by the area from Khue Van to Dai Thanh Mon. In the middle of this area, there is a square lake called Thien Quang Tinh (the clear Holy Pond) which is surrounded by walls. On both sides are the two gardens of steles on which the names of those who attained . degrees were engraved. In ancient times after years of study, students were able to participate in the first-degree examinations held once every three years. Those with the highest marks in this exam were named bachelors. A year later, these bachelors would come to the capital to take part in the first stage of the examinations. Those with the highest marks in this exam were called 1st PhD. Being a ., the scholar could then be promoted to mandarin. At present, there are 82 steles, the oldest of which notes the 1442 palace exam and the most recent, the 1779 exams. These are the most valuable relics of the Temple of Literature. Walking through Dai Thanh gate, we come to the fourth area. There is a large playground where two pavilions were built on both sides for the Confucian scholars to worship. At the rear of the playground is Dai Bai House, a palace with majestic architecture. There are various precious objects located here: a bell cast in 1768 on the left and on the right is a musical stone upon which a story is engraved telling of the usefulness of this musical instrument. At the rear of the Dai Bai area is the Imperial College of the Le Dynasty, the then university. When the Nguyen Dynasty moved this college to Hue, this area was converted into a temple dedicated to Confucius'' parents that was damaged during the war. The Temple of Literature is a place with a lot of diversity and points of interest for the scholar and tourist alike.
