For any information not available in the passage, please infer from the context or refer to your own knowledge.  In the pastTodayTravelTravellers spent months at sea.Travellers sit on a plane for a few hours.Clothing and buildingsThere were unfamiliar styles.They are very similar.RecreationPeople enjoyed completely different local forms of recreation.People enjoy the same sports, music, films and TV shows.ConsumptionPeople bought locally produced products/domestic products or home-made goods.People buy the same products from huge, global companies.LanguageLanguages were diversified and people normally spoke only their mother tongues or dialects.Many local languages are threatened with extinction with more people speaking certain languages. (2)  Answer the following questions.         How many languages does the writer probably speak?The writer probably speaks three languages: Baras, Indonesian, and English.          Why are languages disappearing around the world?By using the example of Baras, the writer implies that languages are disappearing because globalization causes people to migrate and the migrants usually learn the common language for effective communication. They then may give up using their own languages. Read paragraph 6 and answer the questions.         What does “it” in the sentence “Where will it stop?” refer to? It refers to the extinction of languages caused by globalization.         Does the writer prefer to live in a world with no cultural differences? Why?No, the writer wouldn’t prefer that. The writer thinks the idea is disappointing because there will no longer be any of the wonderful differences between different cultures. III. Post-readingVoice your opinion:Do you think the situation imagined by the writer in the last paragraph will happen in reality? Why or why not?Answers may vary.(For reference) No, I don’t think globalization is sure to result in the disappearance of languages and cultures. While it is undeniable that globalization can pose threats to a certain language and culture, it also presents a tremendous opportunity for cultural diversity. In China, for example, increased participation in global trade not only boosted the economy; it also allowed the Chinese to spread their culture around the world, whether through Peking operas or traditional festivals or food. Meanwhile, the influence brought by the introduction of foreign cultures has increased awareness of Chinese people’s cultural identity, stimulating citizens to defend, preserve, and restore the cultural features they care about the most. IV. InteractionThink about the following question and have a discussion with your classmates.Do you think globalization is unavoidable? Why? Answers may vary.(For reference) Yes, globalization is unavoidable.It is unavoidable due to closer economic cooperation between countries, the wider use of the Internet and social media, and the advance of science and technology. V.
