Sign Language Because deaf people cannot hear, they have special way of communicating. For example, they can learn to understand what someone is saying by looking at the mouth of the speaker. This is called lipreading. Also, speaking is very difficult for the deaf, because they cannot hear their own voices. However, it is possible with special training. According to many deaf people all around the world, the most practical and popular way of communicating is with sign language. In many ways, sign language is similar to spoken language. The words of sign language are made of signs, which are formed with movements of the hands, face, and body. As with words, each sign has a different meaning and can be combined to form sentences. Sign languages also have their own grammar. The alphabet of sign language is special hand signs that stand for letters; they make spelling possible. The signs combine to form a rich language that can express the same thoughts, feelings, and ideas as any spoken language. And just as people from different countries speak different languages, most countries have their own variety of sign language. In addition to knowing sign language, it is also helpful to know something about how deaf people communicate. Since they rely so much on actions, deaf people are generally not very formal when they “talk”, and may touch your arm or shoulder a lot to make sure you know what they’re saying. It is not seen as rude among deaf people to lightly touch someone you do not know to get their attention. It’s also okay to wave your hands or hit the table or floor. Also, lots of eye contact is necessary. There are many ways to learn a few signs. Community colleges often teach introductory classes. For self- learners, bookstores and libraries have books for learning sign language. There are also instructional videos on the Internet, with actors demonstrating signs and performing interesting stories and conversations for you to see. With practice, you’ll soon get the hang of this useful method of communicating (340 words) Question 36: You can learn to lipread by ____________.

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 43 to 50. Song of the Humpback Herman Melville, the writer of the famous whale story Moby Dick, once wrote that humback whales were

“ the most lighthearted of all the whales.” A favourite of whale watchers everywhere, they swim in ocean areas close to land, and are active at the surface. They can often be seen breaching, or leaping out of the water, and then coming down with a great splash. Humpbacks are known to be intelligent animals and can be seen working together to hunt schools of small fish. And, if you listen closely, you might even hear one singing. Marine biologist Jim Darling has studied the songs of humpback whales for more than 25 years. While recording whale songs on a boat near Hawaii, he invited author Douglas Chadwick to experience diving with a humpback. In the water, Chadwick heard the whale’s songs in a way he never heard them before. “ Suddenly, I no longer heard the whale’s voice in my ears,” he said. “ I felt it inside my head and bones.” When swimming with the whale, Chadwick could see that the whale was aware of him, but not alarmed by his presence. The 13-meter-long giant looked him over curiously, but never harmed him. The whale then swam under the boat. It pointed its head down to the ocean floor and, with flippers extended out to its sides, began to sing. Up in the boat, Darling recorded the whale’s song. Humpback whale songs can be long and complex, sometimes lasting for 30 minutes or more. They are perhaps the longest song sung by any animal. Darling says that only male humpback sing, but for unknown reasons. It was previously thought that they sang to attract females, but scientists showed this was incorrect when they played recordings of whale songs in the ocean and the female whales did not respond. Another idea is that male humpbacks compete with each other using songs, just as other male animals on land do using their antlers or tusks. Researchers have also found that humpback whale songs are different in different parts of the world, perhaps like whale national anthems. They may also be like hit tunes on the radio, changing over time - from one year to the next, or even over a single breeding season. There is still so much the scientists don’t know, and years of study lie ahead for whale researchers like Jim Darling. “ Why do I do it?” he wonders aloud. “ Human beings like puzzles. I want to know. Period.” Another member of the research team, photographer Flip Nicklin, recalls a special moment he had while interacting with a humpback. While he was snorkeling some distance from the huge animal, it approached him until it was just a few metres away. It then gently carried Nicklin toward its eye with a flipper, as if examining him. Apparently, the urge to understand a different species goes both ways. ( 481 words) Question 43: What is this reading mainly about?
