Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Pho, a beloved Vietnamese noodle soup, boasts a rich history and diverse regional variations. While its exact origins remain debated, most food historians agree that pho emerged in the early 20th century in northern Vietnam, specifically around Hanoi. This period saw significant French influence, evident in the use of beef, a previously uncommon ingredient in Vietnamese cuisine.
Northern Vietnamese pho typically features a clear, savory broth made by simmering beef bones for hours. The noodles are often wider and flatter, and the dish is traditionally served with a simple garnish of green onions and cilantro. Southern Vietnamese pho, on the other hand, developed later and embraced a wider array of flavors and toppings.
In southern Vietnam, pho broth tends to be sweeter and more aromatic, with the addition of spices like star anise and cinnamon. The noodles may be thinner, and a generous assortment of fresh herbs, bean sprouts, lime wedges, and chili sauce are offered alongside. While beef remains popular, chicken pho (pho ga) is equally prevalent in the south.
Despite these regional variations, pho unites the Vietnamese people as a source of national pride and culinary comfort. From humble street food stalls to upscale restaurants, pho continues to evolve and adapt, reflecting the dynamism of Vietnamese culture and cuisine.
