TEST II

ENGLISH LANGUAGE

Directions for questions number 31 to 45:

The section consists of two passages followed by questions based on the contents of the passages. Answer the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.

Passage I

Culture is such a complicated concept that it does not lend itself to a single definition or a simple description. It brings to mind different images to different people. In its broadest sense, it includes a wide variety of constructs such as the mental habits, personal prejudices, moral values, social customs, artistic achievements, and aesthetic preferences of particular societies. Recognizing the amorphous nature of the concept of culture, anthropologists thought it fit to distinguish between Culture with a capital C and culture with a small c. The former is a relatively societal construct referring to the general view of culture as creative endeavours such as theatre, dance, music, literature, and art. The latter is a relatively personal construct referring to the patterns of behaviour, values, and beliefs that guide the everyday life of an individual or a group of individuals within a cultural community.

Historically, the cultural orientation that informed L2 learning and teaching was confined mostly to Culture with a big C. It is only after World War II, when language communication became the primary goal of language learning and teaching, that learners and teachers alike started emphasizing the importance of everyday aspects of cultural practices, that is, culture with a small c. Whatever its orientation, culture teaching played a rather subterranean role in most L2 education. It became part of what Michael Byram (1989) has called "the hidden curriculum", indirectly seeking to create in the learner an empathy towards and an appreciation for the culture of the target language community. This hidden agenda has been the order of things from time immemorial. In a comprehensive review of twenty-five centuries of language teaching, Louis Kelly (1966, p. 378) has pointed out that "the cultural orientation of language teaching has always been one of its unstated aims".

According to a review by H.H. Stern culture teaching has generally included a cognitive component, an affective component, and a behavioural component. A focal point of the cognitive, affective and behavioural components of teaching culture has always been the native speaker of the target language. As Stern (1992) reiterates, "One of the most important aims of culture teaching is to help the learner gain an understanding of the native speaker's perspective". It is a matter of the L2 learner "becoming sensitive to the state of mind of individuals and groups within the target language community". The teacher's task, then, is to help the learner "create a network of mental associations similar to those which the items evoke in the native speaker". The overall objective of culture teaching, then, is to help L2 learners develop the ability to use the target language in culturally appropriate ways for the specific purpose of empathizing and interacting with native speakers of the target language.

31. One of the following is the primary aim of the passage: Learners must understand diverse cultures Description of different components of culture To understand the difference between Culture with a capital C and culture with a small c Help second language learners use the target language in culturally appropriate ways

82. The phrase "Recognizing the amorphous nature ofthe concept of culture" means knowing that the concept of culture cannot be understood understanding that culture cannot be concretely defined knowing that culture is a formless and shapeless entity understanding that the concept of culture can never be fully understood

33. Culture with a small c refers to artistic achievements in the daily life of individuals social customs of learners of second language behaviours and values in the daily life of individuals creative and aesthetic aspects of society

34. The phrase "... culture teaching played education" refers to a rather subterranean role in most L2 a subversive role a rather cynical role an invisible role a subservient role

35. An appropriate title to the passage would be Raising Cultural Awareness of L2 Learners Celebrating Diversity among Learners The Hidden Agenda Cultural Profiling

36. The author of the passage is likely to be A sociologist An education ist An anthropologist A language teacher

37. All the following are mentioned in the passage except It was the general view of culture that was taught from the time of World War II. The ''hidden curriculum" is rather insidiously included in the L2 classroom. There are three major components to teaching culture. The main emphasis of teaching culture in the L2 classroom is to enable learners to engage appropriately with native speakers of the target language.

38. The most appropriate sentence following the passage would be While there are merits in the notions of Colour Purple and third culture, it seems to me that a true understanding of the cultural dynamics of the L2 classroom can emerge only through an understanding of the individual cultural identity that teachers and learners bring with them. One of the engines that drives both economic and cultural globalisation is global electronic communication, the Internet. Such an approach is based on a limited view of culture in at least two important ways. Second, the traditional approach to the teaching of culture also ignores the rich diversity of world views that learners bring with them to the language classroom.

Passage II

Where does all this lead, in ethical and political terms? In our own concluding essay to The Great Ape Project, Paola Cavalieri and I point to an international organization that can serve as a political model for the liberation of the great apes: the Anti-Slavery Society. In the last two-hundred years, human slavery has been eliminated, or virtually so, from the face of the Earth. In laboratories, zoos, circuses, and elsewhere, the great apes remain the most abject of slaves. In 1991, the United States government set official minimum . standards for cages for laboratory chimpanzees. The recommended cage size for permanently confining a single adult chimpanzee was 5 x 5 x 7 feet.

Can we put an end to the slavery of the great apes? Since the launch of the Great Ape Project in 1993 there have been promising signs of change in attitudes toward the non-human great apes. In Britain, the government has said that it will no longer allow great apes to be the subject of harmful scientific experimentation. In the United States, a National Science Foundation report on chimpanzees in laboratories recommended that in contrast to the methods normally applied to other animals used in research -chimpanzees surplus to research requirements should not be killed but should be "retired". In New Zealand, animal welfare legislation enacted in 1999 included a clause prohibiting the use of "non-human hominoids" -that is, great apes -in research, unless the research was intended to benefit them, either individually or as a species. In hailing the legislation as a world first, the government minister responsible for its passage through parliament specifically referred to "the advanced cognitive and emotional capacity of the great apes" as the reason for the special status being accorded to them.

These are the early signs of what could become a more fundamental change. It needs to happen soon, not only for the sake of those apes now enslaved in the developed world, but also for those still living freely in their original lands. In Africa, and in Indonesia, the great apes are everywhere endangered by the clearing and burning of the forests in which they live. In Africa, chimpanzees, bonobos and gorillas face an additional threat: foreign logging companies are building roads into the forests, providing access for hunters who shoot them for "bushmeat", often to be sold at high prices in markets and restaurants hundreds of miles away. If this trade is not stopped soon, there will be very few free-living African apes left.

Extending the community of equals to the great apes is a first step towards the broader moral community that should eventually include all sentient creatures. We imagine that there is a vast gulf between us and other species. This gulf has disastrous consequences not only for the great apes, but for all animals. The Great Ape Project is not merely the champion of the one relatively small group of animals over others, but rather a bridge that will reduce this gulf, and so lead to a different attitude towards all sentient creatures.

39. The author is ultimately focussing on an equitable attitude towards all life end of slavery of the apes end of destruction of habitats of apes description of threats to hominoids

40. The reason why the author is concentrating on apes is because they are most used in medical experiments they have fairly advanced cognitive and emotional capacity this will help to reduce the gap between humans and other sentient creatures he is anti-slavery

41. The sentence "The recommended cage size for permanently confining a single adult chimpanzee was 5 x 5 x 7 feet" suggests that the author is stating a fact a precise researcher unhappy with the arrangement satisfied with the arrangement

42. The legislation of 1999 included one of the following: Apes could not be used for scientific experiments' Apes could only be used for experiments which benefited them Apes should be retired after experimentation Only smaller animals could be used for experiments

43. The style of the passage is Descriptive Argumentative Persuasive Narrative

44. A suitable title to the passage would be Towards Equality ofAll Species Experimentation on Animals and their Disastrous Consequences The Great Ape Project Extinction of the Ape

45. All the points are mentioned in the passage except Granting equality to apes is the first step towards a planet where all living beings have an equal right to existence. Granting basic rights to apes is gaining strong political support at an international level. Animal liberation is that basic principle of equality that entitles us to regard all human beings as equal. Human slavery has virtually been eliminated from society.
