diameter of social circle; employment potential and preference; and, most importantly, the way in which the child views himself and his global environment One of the more advantageous by-products of being a member of a bilingual family is the inherent awareness of two different cultures This bicultural child inherits a wealth of knowledge brought about by an exposure to: historical backgrounds; traditional songs and folklore; rituals of marriage; models of social interaction; and therefore, two varying interpretations of the world The monolingual child seems to be at a disadvantage in comparison to the bilingual child, who has a set of languages and an accompanying set of abstract cultural ideas Practically speaking, when a child comes from a twolanguage family, he must be taught both languages in order to communicate with the extended family members When, for example, the grandparents speak a language which differs from that of the child’s locale, a monolingual child would be deprived of the interaction which occurs between grandparents and grandchildren On the other hand, a bilingual child will not only be able to speak to grandparents, but will also comprehend where these people have ‘come from’ There will be a shared cultural empathy within the family Because all family members can communicate, on both a verbal and cultural level, no one will feel excluded and the child will develop a sense of rootedness On a more abstract level, it has been said that a bilingual child thinks differently from a monolingual child Current research in linguistics indicates that there may be a strong correlation between bilingualism and cognitive skills This new research concerns itself with the fact that a bilingual child has two lexical structures for any given physical or abstract entity This leads logically to the assumption that the child also has two associations for many words, as a word can mean different things in different languages For example, the word ‘fire’ in many western hemisphere languages connotes warmth and relaxation In the Inuit language however, where fire is a necessity of life, it may connote heat and survival For the bilingual child, then, vocabulary items and the abstract idea behind them are both dual in nature and more elastic Researchers maintain that this elasticity of ideas may allow the child to think more flexibly and, therefore, more creatively In the author’s view, the world is becoming a _ A more culturally diverse place B place where only privileged children will prosper C less complex place to live in D much more integrated place According to the first paragraph, which of the following was true of immigrants? A Children were reluctant to use their mother tongue B The mother tongue was considered less important C Parents encouraged children to use their mother tongue D Most parents made it a priority for children to grow up bilingual The phrase “privy to” in paragraph mostly means _ A acquainted with B advised of C apprised of D in the know about The phrase “attributed to” in paragraph mostly means _ A ascribed to B associated with C connected with D held responsible for According to the writer, second or foreign language learning is something _ A people are still apathetic towards B mainly associated with private sector education C that few people take seriously D about which general attitudes have evolved considerably According to the article, the decision to raise bilingual children is difficult because A it may limit the child’s choice of friends B though simple for parents, it can impact negatively on children C it may cause children to lose their sense of identity D it needs to be considered from many different angles With regard to the extended family in immigrant situations, the writer feels it is important that _ A adults try to understand the child’s difficult cultural situation B children are not pressured to speak their parents’ native language C adults recognize the child’s need to identify more with local culture D children can relate to all aspects of their parents’ native culture The word “by-products” in paragraph mostly means _ A entailments B knock-on effects C side effects D spin-offs The word “connotes” in paragraph mostly means _ A underpins B implies C signifies D smacks of 10 According to current research, the benefit of learning two languages is that _ A different types of knowledge can be accessed in different languages B bilinguals become more aware the origin of words in languages C it helps to develop different capabilities of the mind D bilinguals develop a greater sense of the value of culture Your answers 6 10 IV Read the

range of foods available to astronauts is vast, and great care is taken to ensure that it looks and smells appetizing Meals are organized to provide an average of 3,000 calories a day, which seems

and the tasks that follow (10pts) The US City and the Natural Environment A While cities and their metropolitan areas have always interacted with and shaped the natural environment, it is only recently that historians have begun to consider this relationship During our own time, the tension between natural and urbanized areas has increased, as the spread of metropolitan populations and urban land uses has reshaped and destroyed natural landscapes and environments B The relationship between the city and the natural environment has actually been circular, with cities having massive effects on the natural environment, while the natural environment, in turn, has profoundly shaped urban configurations Urban history is filled with stories about how city dwellers contended with the forces of nature that threatened their lives Nature not only caused many of the annoyances of daily urban life, such as bad weather and pests, but it also gave rise to natural disasters and catastrophes such as floods, fires, and earthquakes In order to protect themselves and their settlements against the forces of nature, cities built many defenses including flood walls and dams, earthquake-resistant buildings, and storage places for food and water At times, such protective steps sheltered urbanites against the worst natural furies, but often their own actions – such as building under the shadow of volcanoes, or in earthquake-prone zones – exposed them to danger from natural hazards C City populations require food, water, fuel, and construction materials, while urban industries need natural materials for production purposes In order to fulfill these needs, urbanites increasingly had to reach far beyond their boundaries In the nineteenth century, for instance, the demands of city dwellers for food produced rings of garden farms around cities In the twentieth century, as urban populations increased, the demand for food drove the rise of large factory farms Cities also require fresh water supplies in order to exist – engineers built waterworks, dug wells deeper and deeper into the earth looking for groundwater, and dammed and diverted rivers to obtain water supplies for domestic and industrial uses In the process of obtaining water from distant locales, cities often transformed them, making deserts where there had been fertile agricultural areas D Urbanites had to seek locations to dispose of the wastes they produced Initially, they placed wastes on sites within the city, polluting the air, land, and water with industrial and domestic effluents As cities grew larger, they disposed of their wastes by transporting them to more distant locations Thus, cities constructed sewerage systems for domestic wastes They usually discharged the sewage into neighboring waterways, often polluting the water supply of downstream cities The air and the land also became dumps for waste disposal In the late nineteenth century, coal became the preferred fuel for industrial, transportation, and domestic use But while providing an inexpensive and plentiful energy supply, coal was also very dirty The cities that used it suffered from air contamination and reduced sunlight, while the cleaning tasks of householders were greatly increased E In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, reformers began demanding urban environmental cleanups and public health improvements Women's groups often took the lead in agitating for clean air and clean water, showing a greater concern than men in regard to quality of life and health-related issues The replacement of the horse, first by electric trolleys and then by the car, brought about substantial improvements in street and air sanitation The movements demanding clean air, however, and reduction of waterway pollution were largely unsuccessful On balance, urban sanitary conditions were probably somewhat better in the 1920s than in the late nineteenth century, but the cost of improvement often was the exploitation of urban hinterlands for water supplies, increased downstream water pollution, and growing automobile congestion and pollution F In the decades after the 1940s, city environments suffered from heavy pollution as they sought to cope with increased automobile usage, pollution from industrial production, new varieties of chemical pesticides and the wastes of an increasingly consumer-oriented economy Cleaner fuels and smoke control laws largely freed cities during the 1940s and 1950s of the dense smoke that they had previously suffered from Improved urban air quality resulted largely from the substitution of natural gas and oil for coal and the replacement of the steam locomotive by the diesel-electric However, great increases in automobile usage in some larger cities produced the new phenomenon of smog, and air pollution replaced smoke as a major concern G During these decades, the suburban out-migration, which had begun in the nineteenth century with commuter trains and streetcars and accelerated because of the availability and convenience of the automobile, now increased to a torrent, putting major strains on the formerly rural and undeveloped metropolitan fringes To a great extent, suburban layouts ignored environmental considerations, making little provision for open space, producing endless rows of resource-consuming and fertilizer-dependent lawns, contaminating groundwater through leaking septic tanks, and absorbing excessive amounts of fresh water and energy The growth of the outer city since the 1970s reflected a continued preference on the part of many people in the western world for space-intensive single-family houses surrounded by lawns, for private automobiles over public transit, and for the development of previously untouched areas Without better planning for land use and environmental protection, urban life will, as it has in the past, continue to damage and stress the natural environment Questions
