Read the following passage about endangered languages and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
There are about 7,000 languages in the world today. However, most people speak the largest languages: Chinese, Spanish, English, Hindi, Russian, Arabic. What about the smaller languages? Some of them, like Maori in New Zealand and Tuvan in southern Siberia, have fewer than 1,000 speakers. We may soon lose those languages completely. In fact, 230 languages became extinct between 1950 and 2010.
Unfortunately, when we lose a language, we also lose its culture and knowledge. That's because people in different places have different ways of living and thinking. One example of this is the Tuvan language of southern Siberia. Tuvan people depend on animals for food and other basic needs. Their language shows this with its close connection between people and animals, including rhythmic words like 'galloping horse.' And the word oj byzaa is 'a white calf less than one year old.'
In some places, people are working to save additional languages. Many schools in New Zealand now teach the Maori language. This helps connect New Zealanders to their Maori culture. And Welsh is spoken by around 500,000 people in Wales. The Welsh government is working to increase that number to one million by 2050.
Technology also offers a possible alternative to saving endangered languages. The Endangered Languages Voices project has created 'Talking Dictionaries' — the recorded voices of people communicating with each other. All of them are fluent speakers of endangered languages. And because these dictionaries are accessible to anyone on the Internet, people now and in the future can learn some of the vocabulary, history, greetings, and grammar rules of past languages.
Question 23: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the largest languages?
Read the following passage about urbanisation and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Global urbanisation has increased significantly in recent decades, and one of the main drivers of this growth has been rural migration. [II] Half of the world's population already resides in cities, and by 2050, experts predict that figure could reach as high as two-thirds. [III] Many factors contribute to this global phenomenon, which then gives rise to various issues. [IV]
In the process of urbanisation, rural migration causes various far-reaching impacts on the environment and urban life. Urban areas are not able to offer adequate housing for new residents, which harms the environment and reduces air quality. As growing populations bring about more deforestation and pollution, the air quality worsens, which can lead to health issues for residents. Second, due to population expansion, cities are struggling to offer adequate public facilities for urban people. Low-income people are unable to obtain the necessary affordable housing and end up living in slums, where the quality of life is very poor.
Push factors which force people away from rural life include fewer employment options, crop failures, and the difficulty to earn a good living. Pull factors that attract people to urban life include higher standard of living, better educational opportunities, diverse entertainment alternatives, allowing urban citizens to access leisure activities easily. They also offer exciting job opportunities.
Rural migration is a complicated process, of which the causes and effects should be fully comprehended. By carefully planning city development and suitable social policies, we can provide urban citizens with good public services, exciting job opportunities and a high quality of life without harming the environment.
Question 31: In which paragraph does the writer mention more and more people are moving to the city from the countryside each year?
