Tapescript L00k at the pictures and tick ( V) the countries to which they apply.(2%) Island people, people who live on islands all over the world, have many things in common. For example, you often find many different languages spoken on islands, There are more than seventy languages spoken on the island of Papua New Guinea Jenny: Laura: Look at picture one. You see one answer to a problem faced by most island people: How do you get from one island to another? There are many different answers, In Indonesia people sometimes use wooden canoes. In Japan islanders use a jetfotl for short trips and a small aircraft that can land on water for Longer journeys. The Japanese also link > their islands by road. At almost two thousand meters in length, Japan Akashi Katkyo road bridge is the world longest suspension bridge qt i 5 qe Look at picture two. Many islands have industries that damage the environment, like mining, forestry and sometimes even fishing, if itis done using cyanide, When these industries have 10 reduce, because of the damage they do, the problem is, how do the people on these islands earn their living? One answer is tourism. Some slands have tourist attractions on them. For example on Easter Island, off the coast of Chile, in South America, there are huge statues left hbehind by a civilization that used to live there But in countries like the Philippines, the people put their skills to yood use and sell their beautiful hand-dyed material to tourists Jenny: (Gujusysr1) ajdoed -puEysams - Laura: Look at picture three. Even with the growth of tourism, mining and fishing are often the two biggest industries for island people. There are large copper mines in the Philippines, for example. And the people of Newfoundland. off the coast of Canada, lish for cod in the cold watets of the North Atlantic. Look at picture four. Because it was, and often stil s, difficult to transport raw materials to an island, you often find that the houses are built of whatever grows on the island, For example in Cuba. an island olf the coast of Florida, in the 7 United States, people build houses called bbohios. They are made of the wood that grows fn the island and the roofs are thatched with palm leaves from the local tees. But in Iceland, where there are no trees, the homes are built with thick stone walls and the rools are covered with turf cut from the fields, to keep the cold out smsuy2 Section C Listen to the conversation between Ben, Laura and Jenny and then tick ( V) the correct answer for each question.The first one has been done for you as an example.(2.5%) Tapescript (Task E) Ben: You are not going to helieve this, Laura: Probably not Ben: Theres a spaceship going to Titan.
