Read the passage and choose the correct answer.

1. On the first full moon day of the new lunar year, the Red Dao ethnic minority people organize a forest worship ceremony at the Forest Deity temple in Dong Cam village. It is built next to a huge tree on a hill offering vast views.

2. The ritual begins with Shaman Trieu Huu Phau reading the prayer in the Dao language, which is written in an old book. The Dao observes the ritual of praying for supernatural forces to protect the whole village and bless them with good weather, bumper crops, peace, and health, according to Shaman Phau. The worship is simple. Every family contributes something like a chicken, a liquor bottle, steamed glutinous rice, votive paper, and money to prepare a pig. Only men are allowed to attend the ceremony. While the shaman reads the prayer, young men plant small trees in the surrounding areas.

3. Triệu Văn San said the perennial tree next to the temple is sacred. Wherever the Dao forms a village, they find and worship a huge tree in the forest.
