IV READING
A READ THE PASSAGE BELOW AND CHOOSE THE CORRECT ANSWER FOR EACH QUESTION:
(9)The traditional definition of literacy is considered to be the ability to read and write, or the ability to use language to read, write, listen, and speak In modern contexts, the word refers to reading and writing at a level adequate for communication, or at level that lets one understand and communicate ideas in a literate society, so as to take part in that society The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has drafted the following definition: " Literacy is the ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate and compute, using printed and written materials associated with varying contexts Literacy involvesa continuum of learning to enable an individual to achieve his or her goals, to develop his or her knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in the wider society." Policy makers also argue that literacy increases job opportunities and access to higher education In Kerala, India, for example, female and child mortality rates declined dramatically in the 1960s, when the girls who were educated in the educational reforms after 1948 began to raise families Recent researchers, however, argue that correlations such as the one listed above may have more to with the effects of schooling rather than literacy in general Regardless, the focus of educatioal systems worldwide include a basic concept around communication through text and print, which is the foundation of most definitions of literacy
Asian, Arab and Sub-Saraha African countries are regions with the lowest literacy rates at about 10% to 12% East Asia and Latin America have illiteray rates in the 10 to 15% region while developed countries have illiteray rates of a few percent Within ethnically homogeneous regions, literay rates can vary widely from region to region This often coincides with the region's wealth or urbanization, though many factors play a role
1 A literacy
A can read but does not know how to write B cannot communicate with others in written language C can communicate in written language D cannot read any printed document
2 Literacy _
A helps one develop his or her knowledge and potential B is used to refer an ability to listen and speak
C does not develop in modern society
D is a term which has just come into being in the modern time

* Passage :
The world's population increased from billion in 1959 to billion by 1999, a doubling that occurred over 40 years The Census Bureau's lasted projections imply that population growth will continue into the 21st century, although
more slowly The world's population is projected to grow from billion in 1999 to billion by 2042, an increase of 50 percent that will require 43 years
The world's population growth rate rose from about 1.5 percent per year from 1950 to 1951 to a peak of over percent in the early 1960s due to reductions in mortality Growth rates thereafter started to decline due to rising age at marriage as well as increasing availability and use of effective contraceptive methods Note that changes in population growth have not always been steady A dip in the growth rate from 1959 to 1960, for instance, was due to the Great Leap Forward in China During that time, both natural disasters and decreased agricutural output in the wake of massive social reorganization caused China's death rate to rise sharply and its fertility rate to fall by almost half
