called carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbons, and others. There may also be sand, dust particles, and
other substances that evaporate and become pollutants.
A primary pollutant is one that is directly released into the air causing pollution. An example is carbon
monoxide, which comes from cars and trucks on the road. A second primary pollutant is sulfur dioxide, which
comes from the burning of coal.

In the past, both men and women were expected to be married at quite young ages. Marriages were generally
arranged by parents and family, with their children having little chance to say no in the matter. In the past it was
not surprising to find that a bride and groom had only just met on the day of their engagement or marriage.
In modern Vietnam, this has changed completely as people choose their own marriage partners based on love,
and in consideration primarily to their own needs and wants. Moreover early marriage is quite illegal.
The traditional Vietnamese wedding is one of the most important of traditional Vietnamese occasions.
Regardless of westernization, many of the ageold customs practiced in a traditional Vietnamese wedding
continue to be celebrated by both Vietnamese in Vietnam and overseas, often combining both western and
eastern elements. Besides the wedding ceremony, there is also an engagement ceremony which takes place
usually half a year or so before the wedding. Due to the spiritual nature of the occasion, the date and time of the
marriage ceremony are decided in advance by a fortune teller. The traditional Vietnamese wedding consists of
an extensive array of ceremonies: the first is the ceremony to ask permission to receive the bride, the second is
the procession to receive the bride (along with the ancestor ceremony at her house), the third is to bring the
bride to the groom's house for another ancestor ceremony and to welcome her into the family, then the last is a
wedding banquet. The number of guests in attendance at these banquets is huge, usually in the hundreds.
Several special dishes are served. Guests are expected to bring gifts, often money, which the groom and bride at
one point in the banquet will go from table to table collecting.
