V. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions below.
There are many problems that make the Vietnamese movies unable to keep pace with the development of the other countries ‘modern movies in the world. First of all we do not have enough money to buy the most modern machinery and equipment for movie technology. The Vietnamese scriptwriters and filmmakers are not well-paid. They are busy earning money for life. We do not have enough conditions to train filmmakers and actors and actresses. From the dawn of the Vietnamese movie industry, there have been several films that won the world’s recognition. However, our movie industry is still limited compared with many other countries’. It is rather sad but we must say many Vietnamese viewers do not like Vietnamese films. They like ones from Korea, China, and the U.S!
