Mind your languages Thousands of the world's languages are dying, taking to the grave not just words but records of civilisations and cultures that we may never come to fully know or Understand. It is a loss of which few people are aware, yot it will affect us all. Linguists have calculated that of the 6,000 languages currently spoken worldwide most will disappear over the next hundred years. As many as 1,000 languages have died in the past 400 years. Conversely, the handful of major international languages are forging ahead. 7 But tho vast majority of the world never had need of phrases in Heiltsuk (a Native Indian language from the Canadien Pacific coast of British Columbia which is now dead). Nor will most people be interested in learning any of the 800 languages spoken on the island of New Guinea or the 2,400 spoken by Native American Indians (many of which are threatened), but their deaths are robbing us of the knowledge needed to write many chapters of history. generally happy when we have a corpus of texts which we can read and understand with the help of a reliable grammar and dictionary provided by a competent linguist, preferably including texts of some particular interest; says Kortlandt. 10 To non-linguists it must seem an odd issue to get worked up about. Why waste so much time saving languages spoken by so few and not concentrate on the languages of the future that most of us speak? Why look back instead of forward? ‘Would you ask a biologist looking for disappearing species the same question?” Kortlandt asks. ‘Or an astronomer looking for distant galaxies? Why should languages, the mouthpiece of threatened cultures, be less interesting than unknown species or galaxies? Language is the defining characteristic of the human species. These people say things to each other which are very different from the things we say, and think very different thoughts, which are often incomprehensible to us’ 2 _ 17 Documenting a threatened language can be difficult and dangerous, requiring consummate diplomacy with tribes, some of which may be meeting outsiders for the first time and may well be wary about why these strangers need so much information about their language. ‘Some peoples are extremely proud of their language while others are sceptical of the “white man’; believing he now wants to rob them of their language |; says Kortlandt. Take, for example, the vast potential for modern medicine that lies within tropical rainforests. For centuries forest tribes have known about the healing properties of certain plants, but it is only recently that the outside world has discovered that the rainforests and coral reefs hold potential cures for some of the world's major diseases. All tis knowledge could be lost if the tribes and their languages die out without being documented. @ “There are about 200 Tibeto-Burman languages, only about ten of which have been properly described; says Kortlandt. ‘We now have fourteen PhD students describing different, unknown languages: The problem is it can take years to document a language. ‘We are \" CAE Test 2 >> PAPER 1 Reading >» Part 2 Kortlandt is blunt about why some languages have suffered. ‘If we look back to the history of the Empire; he says, ‘for social, economic and political reasons, @ majority never has an interest in preserving the culture of a minority’A Frederik Kortlandt, Professor of Comparative Linguistics at Leiden University in Holland, has a mission to document as many of the remaining endangered languages as he can. He leads a band of language experts trekking to some of the most inaccessible parts of the earth to save such threatened languages. B This is one of the factors worrying Paul Gereti, a linguist in Fiji in the South Pacific, There are hundreds of known remedies in Fiji's forests. The guava leaf relieves diarrhoea, the udi tree eases sore throats, and hibiscus leaf tea is used by expectant mothers. There are possibly scores more yet to be discovered. We will only be able to find them and benefit from their properties through one or more of the 300 languages and dialects spoken on the Fijian islands. If the languages die, so too will ‘the medicinal knowledge of naturally occurring tonics, rubs and potions. Science could be left wondering what we might have found. English is now spoken by almost everyone in Fiji and ereti is teaching Fijians how to speak their own disappearing native languages and dialects. © In September this year, like-minds met in Kathmandu for a conference on how to save some Himalayan languages spoken by just a handful of people. A great number of languages in the greater Himalayan region are endangered or have already reached the point of no return.

Do not rely simply on recognising repeated names, dates ete. E the binding force of culture, and the disappearance of a language means the disappearance of culture. It is not only the words that disappear, but also knowledge about many things.” Kortlandt knows @ language is disappearing when the younger generation does not use it any more, When a language is spoken by fewer than forty people, he calculates that it will die out. Every now and then language researchers get lucky. Kamassian, a southern Samoyed language spoken in the Upper Yenisey region of Russia, was supposed to have died out, until two old women who still spoke it turned up at a conference in Tallinn, Estonia in the early 1970s. According to the Atlas of Languages, Chinese is now spoken by 1,000 million people and English by 360 million. Spanish, spoken by 260 million people, is fast overtaking French as the first foreign language choice of British schoolchildren. Kortlandt is one of several linguists who have sounded the alarm that humankind is on the brink of losing over fifty percent of its languages within the next generation or two. “This loss may be unavoidable in most cases; says one authority, ‘but at the very least, we can record as much as we can of these endangered languages before they die out altogether.

The Cinderella Story C7 he basic story is very old indeed and familiar to most of us. The heroine, Cinderella, is treated cruelly by her stepmother and mocked by her two ugly stepsisters. ‘And even though her father loves her, she can’t tell him how unhappy she is because her stepmother has bewitched him. One day Cinderella’s stepmother and stepsisters are invited to a ball at the royal palace Cinderella is told she cannot go and is understandably very unhappy. However, her fairy godmother comes to the rescue and, waving her magic wand, produces some beautiful clothes for Cinderella as well as a carriage to convey her to the ball. There, she dances with the handsome prince, who falls in love with her, not only because she is beautiful but also because she is good and gracious. Cinderella has been warned that the magic will wear off at midnight, so when the clock strikes twelve, she hurries away, leaving behind her a glass slipper. Next day, the prince, smitten by her charms, comes looking for the girl whose foot fits the glass slipper. He finds Cinderella and they marry amid general rejoicing. Just a sweet, pretty tale? Not in the view of Ellen ‘MacIntosh, who has written extensively about fairy tales. “This story features the stock, two-dimensional characters of most fairy tales, and little character development is attempted,’ she says. Indeed, although her comment does make one wonder why simplicity of this sort should be out of place in a story for children. Be that as it may, Ellen’s main problem is with what the story implies. ‘Instead of standing up to her cruel stepmother and absurd stepsisters, Cinderella just waits for a fairy godmother to appear and solve her problems. But wouldn’t you want a daughter of yours to show more spirit” ‘The story is enduring, whatever its shortcomings, and it doesn’t take much in the way of analytical skills to see its influence on a number of recent Hollywood productions, all aimed at girls aged five to fifteen, In these versions for the silver screen, the Cinderella character no longer has to clean the house and has no siblings to make her life a misery, though she persists in not showing much backbone. The character of the rich and handsome stranger, however, is retained, and in some cases really is a prince. The role of the fairy godmother is often played by coincidence or sheer luck; we live in an enlightened age when even very young children might reject the notion of fairies. ‘The wicked stepmother may be transformed into a villain of some sort. In the majority of film versions, the heroine has a profession and is even permitted to continue working after marrying her prince ~ this is the twenty-first century, after all. ‘Doesn’t the success of these films indicate that the story has relevance to children even today? ‘Yes,’ admits Ellen, who sees its message as being rooted in a fundamental childhood desire for love and attention, ‘Most children experience a sense of inner loneliness as they are growing up and empathise with the protagonist who faces some sort of test or challenge. ‘This can be scen in the original story of Cinderella, where the fairy godmother tells the heroine that she must learn to be gracious and confident if she is to. go to the ball, She has to grow spiritually, and by maturing, she becomes attractive to the prince, thus ensuring that the ending of the story will be happy. ‘In the later versions, this element is missing,’ says Ellen, ‘and the theme of the story is simply that a gir!’s role in life is to be more beautiful than other little girls so that she can carry off the prize: the handsome prince. Is this really what we want girls to grow up believing?” CAE Test 2 >> PAPER 1 Reading >> Part 5Essential tips this part of the ‘to understand wll as the writer's opinion, attitude and purpose. » You can approach this part in ‘wo slightly different ways Howover, you should begin by reading the instructions and the ttle of the text Then you ‘can either skim the text first before you read the questions, ‘or road the quostions first before you skim the text. > There will be seven questions ‘or question stems, Read each {question carefully and, without looking at the options, scan the text for the answer or for a suitable and accurate way to complete the question stem. > Think about the meaning of what you read, and only then see if you can match the relevant section of the text with ‘one of the options. > The correct option is unlikely to use the samo words as the toxt 10 express an idea, Question 13: You are being asked about the writer's view, rot Ellen Macintosh’.

If hadn't realised early on that Vd never make it as a performer, I probably would have carried on dreaming that my big break would come. Asiitis, I became a music teacher instead, and in my free time I started to dabble in the technical side of music production, Then an aunt died, leaving me some cash, and I suddenly realised I could finally set up my own recording studio! Of course, there is a downside to turning a hobby into a career. Love my job so much that I used to work seven days a week, but after a while I realised I was getting burnt out you need to switch off occasionally.
