Questions 3 to 5 refer to the following text.

Learning English as a foreign language is sometimes interchanged with learning

English as a second language. Indonesian, Thai, and Japanese people learn English as a
foreign language, because they have their own official language that is Indonesian, Thai, and
Japanese respectively. In big cities in Indonesia, people speak Indonesian at home, in the
shops and at schools whereas in small towns or in villages people speak Indonesian and
vernaculars (Javanese, Balinese, Batak, etc.) interchangeably. They speak English only at
schools in their classrooms.
The Philippines has adopted English as a second language. English is an official
language in the Phillippines for a different reason. The Philippines had been under successive
foreign colonization, first Spanish and then American, for a long time. Even nowadays
Spanish is still being taught in many highschools in Manila. In Philippines, people speak
Tagalog mostly at home and English mostly outside, in the same way as the Indonesians
living in Central or East Java speak Javanese at home and Indonesian outside. English has
become an official language and a medium of instruction at schools. Even at kindergarten
children speak English for communication. No wonder most people from the Philippines are
fluent in English.
