1 Making changes to our habits can pose a formidable challenge, yet even small adjustments
2 can wield a significant impact for our lives. By adding or eliminating just one thing for 30 days, we can
3 establish fresh patterns of behaviour what can lead to lasting improvements.
4 For instance, if you aspire to elevate your physical well-being, cutting out sugar from your diet
5 for 30 days can be a game-changer. This might require going with desserts or sugary beverages, but
6 the benefits can be truly worthwhile. Not only will you feel better, so you may also notice
7 improvements in your skin, energy levels, and overall sense of vitality.
8 Conversely, adding a habit can also be transformative. For instance, if you want to be
9 more productively, adding a daily meditation practice can help you bolster focus and reduce
1 stress. This might involve simply finding a quiet place to sit and introspect for few minutes each
0 day, but the rewards can be significant. You may detect a heightened sense of concentration
1 and invigoration throughout the day, produce a greater sense of calm and clarity.
1 As the old saying goes, ‘Rome wasn’t built in a day’. Making lasting changes to our habits
1 take time and effort, but by focusing in just one thing for 30 days, we can establish a new, healthier

PART 3. Read an extract from an article and choose the answer A, B, C or D that fits best according to the text.
Write your answers in the corresponding numbered boxes provided.
One of the basic assumptions of modern linguistics is that speech is primary and writing is secondary. The
most immediate manifestation of language is speech and not writing. Writing is simply the representation of speech in
another physical medium. Spoken language encodes thought into a physically transmittable form, while writing, in turn,
encodes spoken language into a physically preservable form. Writing is a three-stage process: thinking of an idea,
expressing it in mental grammar, and then transferring it to written form. All units of writing, whether letters or
characters, are based on units of speech, i.e., words, sounds, or syllables. When linguists study language, therefore,
they take the spoken language as their best source of data and their object of description except in instances of
languages like Latin for which there are no longer any speakers.
You may think that with the advent of so many “instant messaging” programs, writing can now be as
immediate as speech. But it is important to remember that even though the written form can be nearly immediate
these days, there is still an extra step between conceptualizing the message you want to communicate and the
reception of that idea, if you have to write it - regardless of whether you do so longhand or type it into a computer.
There are several reasons for maintaining that speech is primary and writing is secondary. Writing is a later
historical development than spoken language. Archeological evidence indicates that writing was first utilized in Sumer,
that is, modern-day Iraq, about 6,000 years ago. The Sumerians probably devised written characters for the purpose
of maintaining inventories of livestock and merchandise. As far as physical and cultural anthropologists can tell,
spoken language has probably been used by humans for hundreds of thousands of years.
Writing does not exist everywhere that spoken language does. This seems hard to imagine in our highly
literate society, but the fact is that there are still many communities in the world where a written form of language is not
used. Even in those cultures using a writing system there are individuals who fail to learn the written form of their
language. In fact, the majority of the Earth's inhabitants are illiterate, though quite capable of spoken communication.
However, no society uses only a written language with no spoken form.
Writing must be taught, whereas spoken language is acquired automatically. All children, except children with
serious learning disabilities, naturally learn to speak the language of the community in which they are brought up. They
acquire the basics of their native language before they enter school, and even if they never attend school, they
become fully competent speakers. Writing systems vary in complexity, but regardless of their level of sophistication,
they must all be taught.
Neurolinguistic evidence (studies of the brain in action during language use) demonstrates that the processing
and production of written language is overlaid on the spoken language centers in the brain. Spoken language involves
several distinct areas of the brain; writing uses these areas and others as well.
Despite all this evidence, it is a widely held misconception that writing is more perfect than speech. To many
people, writing somehow seems more correct and more stable, whereas speech can be careless, corrupted, and
susceptible to change. Some people even go so far as to identify "language" with writing and to regard speech as a
secondary form of language used imperfectly to approximate the ideals of the written language.
What gives rise to the misconception that writing is more perfect than speech? There are several reasons.
Writing can be edited, and so the product of writing is usually more aptly worded and better organized, containing
fewer errors, hesitations, and incomplete sentences than are found in speech. This “perfection of writing” can be
explained by the fact that writing is the result of deliberation, correction, and revision, while speech is the spontaneous
and simultaneous formulation of ideas; writing is therefore less subject to the constraint of time than speech is. Writing
must be taught and is therefore ultimately associated with education and educated speech. Since the speech of the
Page 6 of 13
educated is more often than not set up as the “standard language,” writing is associated indirectly with the varieties of
language that people tend to view as "correct." However, the association of writing with the standard variety is not a
necessary one, as evidenced by the attempts of writers to transcribe faithfully the speech of their characters. Mark
Twain's Huckleberry Finn and John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men contain examples of this. Writing is more physically
stable than spoken language, which consists of nothing more than sound waves traveling through the air, and is
therefore ephemeral and transient. Writing tends to last, because of its physical medium (characters on some
surface), and can be preserved for a very long time. Spelling does not seem to vary from individual to individual or
from place to place as easily as pronunciation does. Thus, writing has the appearance of being more stable especially
in the modern era. Of course, spelling does vary, as exemplified by the differences between the American ways of
spelling gray and words with the suffixes -ize and -ization as compared with the British spelling of grey and -ise and -
isation. Writing could also change if it were made to follow the changes of speech. The fact that people at various
times try to carry out spelling reforms amply illustrates this possibility.

Conservation Strategies

Page 7 of 13
Section A.
Although estimates vary, it is believed that approximately 900 different animal species have died out in the last 500 years.
A further 35,000 species are officially recorded as at risk of extinction, though this is unquestionably an
underrepresentation of the true number under threat. The survival chances of only a tiny proportion of the world's wildlife
have been assessed, so it’s highly likely that far more species are at risk of dying out. In fact, estimates on the true
number vary enormously but range from 10 million to almost 50 million. Experts have also calculated that 25% of the
world's mammals are under threat, and 40% of amphibians are endangered. Such statistics are undoubtedly alarming.
However, numbers alone are not enough to highlight the seriousness of the issue, or the solutions.
Section B.
Of course, it's important to distinguish between cases of preventable animal extinction and extinction that occurs due to
natural evolutionary reasons. Somewhere between 90% and 99% of all the species that have ever existed have died out.
Many species gradually disappear when they are unable to adapt to changing circumstances such as availability of food
or the appearance of new predators. In these cases, other species evolve to fill the vacant role. The Earth's ecosystems
are complex networks of living things, in which animals, plants and waterways are dependent on one another. Natural
extinction helps to maintain the planet’s delicate ecological balance.
Section C.
When left undisturbed, nature finds a way to restore itself. However, the natural balance of the world's ecosystems is
changing, leading to significant biodiversity loss. Construction, tourism, mining, manufacturing and other aspects of
human life are responsible for much of the environmental destruction we see in the world nowadays. Such activities
directly lead to the loss of natural habitats, increase pollution and soil erosion, and also play a major role in climate
change. All of this is having a disastrous impact on the planet s wildlife. Species are disappearing at rates estimated to be
between 1,000 and 10,000 higher than rates of natural extinction. There's no doubt that humans have a
disproportionately negative impact on the world. What's less clear is how best to resolve this.
Section D.
Wildlife management is far from straightforward, especially given the fact that it requires vast financial resources. To put
this in context, it has been estimated that it costs over a million dollars a year to save just one single species of condor
bird native to one particular area of North America. Since there are currently fewer than four hundred of these
endangered condors in existence, saving each one comes at a cost of over $2,500 a year. With this in mind, wildlife
management often involves weighing up competing environmental needs, and making painful strategic decisions to
prioritise some species over others. The factors influencing such decisions are extremely complex, and often
controversial.
Section E.
In recent years, the concept of "conservation triage" has gained increasing attention. This involves leaving some species
to face extinction in order to allocate more resources to species with a greater chance of survival, or which are perceived
to be more important in some way. Conservation triage recognises that it makes sense to invest our limited resources in
species that will have the best environmental outcomes. However, there is no accepted formula to evaluate the relative
merits of saving one species over another. The lack of consensus regarding which species should be prioritised means
that wildlife agencies often adopt differing approaches when it comes to conservation efforts.
Section F.
Some conservation strategics focus entirely on "flagship" species. These are animals promoted as icons to raise public
awareness of environmental issues. They are selected on the basis that they are commonly regarded as attractive or
charismatic, and therefore valued in society. For instance, the possibility that the beloved giant panda may become extinct
has highlighted the importance of protecting natural habitats and having tighter controls against deforestation. However,
while cute animals may generate public sympathy, there is little evidence that this leads to significant environmental gains, in
fact, if images of flagship species appear too often in marketing, the public may even assume they are no longer
endangered.
Section G.
Although flagship species may be "cute", the arguments for alternative approaches are more compelling. It surely makes
more sense to prioritise species which make the greatest overall contribution to nature, regardless of whether they are
perceived to be attractive. Keystone species perform essential functions in ecosystems. For instance, elephants in the
wild clear pathways for small animals. Insects and bees are essential for the pollination and dispersal of tree and plant
seeds. Should keystone species disappear, the survival of all the forms of life in that environment would be at risk.
Likewise, indicator species are vital as they provide valuable information about the condition of natural habitats. Some
types of crayfish are used as indicator species. By monitoring crayfish populations, ecologists can understand more
about the overall condition of our waterways. This clearly highlights the need for a pragmatic rather than a sentimental
approach to conservation.
