VI. Read the passage below. Then choose one best answer (A, B, C, or D) to each question.
Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of
communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech.
When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which
motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf and the mute have had to resort this form of
expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used
internationally; spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or
unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies
approval, while shaking the head indicates negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with
the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide,
warn and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other system and techniques also
express human thoughts and feelings.
26. Which of the following best summarizes this passage ?
A. When a language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.
B. Everybody uses only one form of communication.
C. Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.
D. Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest.
27. The word these refers to ......
A. tourists B. the deaf and the mute
C. thoughts and feelings D. sign language motions
