Read the passage and choose the best answers. Sa Pa District is in Lao Cai Province, northwest Vietnam, 380 km northwest of Hanoi. The town of Sa Pa lies at an elevation of about 1500 meters. The climate is moderate and rainy in summer, and foggy and cold with occasional snowfalls in winter. Sa Pa is a quiet mountain town and home to a great diversity of ethnic minority peoples. The population consists mostly of minority groups. Besides the Kinh people, there are mainly five ethnic groups in Sa Pa: Hmong, Dao, Tay, Giay, and a small number of Xa Pho. Most of the ethnic minority people work their land on sloping terraces since the vast majority of the land is mountainous. Their staple foods are rice and corn. Rice, by its very nature of being a labour- intensive crop, makes the daily fight for survival the most importance. The unique climate in Sa Pa has a major influence on the ethnic minorities who live in the area. With sub-tropical summers, temperate winters and 160 days of mist annually, the influence on agricultural yields and health- related issues is significant. The scenery of the Sa Pa region in large part reflects the relationship between the minority people and nature. This is seen especially in the paddy fields carpeting the rolling lower slopes of the Hoang Lien Mountains. The impressive physical landscape which underlies this has resulted from the work of the elements over thousands of years, wearing away the underlying rock. On a clear day, the imposing peak of Fan Si Pan comes into view. The last major peak in the Himalayan range, Fan Si Pan offers a staggering view of some of the primary rain forests in Vietnam. - imposing (adj): hùng vĩ 1. The second paragraph is mainly about ___.
