Read the poem "Thoughts of Hanoi" by Nguyen Thi Vinh, then use it to answer questions 10-13. The night is deep and chill as in early autumn. Pitchblack, it thickens after each lightning flash. I dream of Hanoi: Co-ngu Road ten years of separation the way back sliced by a frontier of hatred. I want to bury the past to burn the future still I yearn still I fear those endless nights waiting for dawn. Brother, how is Hang Dao now? How is Ngoc Son temple? Do the trains still run each day from Hanoi to the neighboring towns? To Bac-ninh, Cam-giang, Yen-bai, the small villages, islands of brown thatch in a lush green sea? The girls bright eyes ruddy cheeks four-piece dresses raven-bill scarves sowing harvesting spinning weaving all year round, the boys ploughing transplanting in the fields in their shops running across the meadow at evening to fly kites and sing alternating songs. Stainless blue sky, jubilant voices of children stumbling through the alphabet, village graybeards strolling to the temple, grandmothers basking in twilight sun, chewing betel leaves while the children run - Brother, how is all that now? Or is it obsolete? Are you like me, reliving the past, imagining the future? Do you count me as a friend or am I the enemy in your eyes? Brother, I am afraid that one day I’ll be with the March-North Army meeting you on your way to the South. I might be the one to shoot you then or you me but please not with hatred. For don’t you remember how it was, you and I in school together, plotting our lives together? Those roots go deep! Brother, we are men, conscious of more than material needs. How can this happen to us my friend my foe? Question 1 10. What is the speaker's relationship to the city of Hanoi?(3 points) Responses He used to live there and has bad memories of it.
