Cause 2:
- Similarities: All discuss human nature.
- Differences:
+ 'Chinh Phu Ngam,' 'Resentment in the Palace,' and 'The Tale of Kieu' discuss human nature in the realm of the living.
+ 'Soul's Journey' discusses human nature both in life and in death.

Cause 2 (page 80 of Vietnamese Literature 11 Volume 1):Cause 3 (page 80 of Vietnamese Literature 11 Volume 1):Cause 4 (page 80 of Vietnamese Literature 11 Volume 1):

Practice Exercise
Cause 1 (page 81 of Vietnamese Literature 11 Volume 1):
In the excerpt (Textbook, p.81), the author compares 'North' and 'South':
- Similarities: The author affirms that our Dai Viet country (in the South) has all that Dai Minh country (in the North) has such as culture, territory, customs, government, heroes...
- Differences:
+ Culture: Long known for its scholarly tradition.
+ Territory: Mountains and rivers have divided the land.
+ Customs: Northern and Southern customs differ.
+ Separate governments (From Trieu, Dinh, Ly, Tran, generations establishing independence – While Chinese, Tang, Song, Yuan each claimed imperial power in their own way).
+ Heroes: Both eras have illustrious figures.

Cause 2:
These differences demonstrate that Dai Viet is an independent, autonomous country. The intention of the Northern dynasty to annex and merge Dai Viet is completely contrary to justice, and is unacceptable.

Cause 3:
This is a passage comparing role models, highly persuasive. Based on presenting similarities and differences, the author has led readers to a conclusion, that is, the independent existence of the two nations, which cannot be amalgamated. The writer's argument has been effectively achieved.

The object of comparison is 'Van chieu hon'.

Cause 2: Analyze the similarities and differences between the object being compared and the object of comparison.

Similarity: both depict women with suffering and sorrow

Difference

Chinh phu ngam, Cung oan ngam: address a social class

The Tale of Kieu: discuss the human society with various classes of people, different social strata

Van chieu hon: discuss human beings both in life and in death

To clarify the research subject

Write vivid, specific, and persuasive argumentative essays

II. METHOD OF COMPARISON

Cause 1: Nguyen Tuan compared Ngô Tất Tố's concept of 'streetlighting' in 'Turn Off the Light' with the beliefs of two types of people:

Those advocating for refined operas and fragrant melodies: advocating for the reform of outdated customs

Type of nostalgic people: returning to a life of fishing and farming

Cause 2: The basis for comparing the concept of 'streetlighting': Mrs. Dau's change in psychological development created a leap in Ngô Tất Tố's creative concept of the image of the peasant before the August 1945 revolution

Cause 3: Purpose of comparison:

Highlighting the illusion: it is impossible to reform people's lives with the two types of people mentioned above

Belief: when the dam breaks, the peasants rise up against the cruel and harsh forces of feudal society.

Cause 4:

Comparison must be based on clear criteria. Conclusions drawn from comparison must be truthful to help perceive phenomena and objects more accurately and profoundly.

III. PRACTICE

Cause 1: In the excerpt, the author compared 'North' with 'South' in terms of: culture, territory, customs, heroic figures

Cause 2: Dai Viet is an independent country with its own sovereignty, long-standing customs and traditions. The enemy's desire to annex our country is against justice, against the will of heaven.

Cause 3: Persuasiveness of the excerpt:

The author presents extremely sharp arguments and reasoning, laying the groundwork to lead the reader to a principle: each nation has its own independent sovereignty, with a long-standing cultured civilization. Therefore, assimilation and integration are impossible.
