Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.

India has two national languages for central administrative purposes: Hindi and English. Hindi is the national,
official, and main link language of India. English is an associate official language. The historical background of India
is never far away from everyday usage of English. India has had a longer exposure to English than any other country
which uses it as a second language.

In India, English serves two purposes. First, it provides a linguistic tool for the administrative cohesiveness
of the country, causing people who speak different languages to become united. Secondly, it serves as a language of
wider communication, including a large variety of different people covering a vast area. It overlaps with local
languages in certain spheres of influence and in public domains.

Generally, English is used among Indians as a ‘link’ language and it is the first language for many well-
educated Indians. It is also the second language for many who speak more than one language in India. The English
language is a tie that helps bind the many segments of our society together. Also, it is a linguistic bridge between the
major countries of the world and India.

English has special national status in India. It has a special place in the parliament, judiciary, broadcasting,
journalism, and in the education system. One can see a Hindi-speaking teacher giving his or her students instructions
during an educational tour about where to meet and when their bus would leave, but all in English. It means that the
language permeates daily life. It is unavoidable and is always expected, especially in the cities.
