READING. Read this text and do Tasks A and B. 5 x 0.20=1 mark

English is an international language spoken by an increasing number of people around the world. However, in many
English-speaking countries English isn’t the only language. In the UK, for example, people speak Welsh, Gaelic and a few
other languages. Because these languages aren´t international, people pay less attention to them.
Dylan from Cardiff says:
“I grew up in Wales. My family spoke English, but Welsh language was everywhere. When you were driving
around Wales, all the road signs were in English and Welsh. As a child, I hated reading everything twice! We had
television in Welsh too. While everyone in England was watching fashionable American TV shows, we were
learning about local farming in Welsh!
At secondary school, I was dreaming of going to live in Paris, when I realized that, instead of Welsh lessons, I
needed French lessons. No one spoke Welsh outside Wales. Now I´m older, I feel differently. Welsh is a part of my
identity and, besides, we have better Welsh TV now!”
Many languages are disappearing in the UK. Even if they are spoken by very few people, languages have a history
and culture and it’s a pity to see them go. If we care about saving forests or animals, we should care about saving
languages too.
Task A: Circle T for true or F for false.

1- The text is about English as a second language. T F

2- Dylan used to love the TV programmes he could watch as a child. T F

3- The writer of the article thinks minority languages need to be protected. T F

Task B: Circle the correct letter a, b or c.

4- At home, Dylan spoke a) Welsh b) French c) English

5- How did Dylan feel about Welsh in his childhood? a) annoyed b) confused c) interested
