TEXT 04
__________________________________
As (1) ______ result of the new
information technologies and computer-mediated
communications, contemporary
communication has become highly
multimodal moving, particularly, towards the
extensive use of (2) _______image, while
meaning is inevitably derived from ways that
are multimodal. Nowadays, almost all texts
consist of visual elements, which in
combination with language hold a prominent
role in conveying the essential information.
In this context, people, especially youths, are
exposed to (3) _______ variety of
multimodal texts, such as video games,
websites, picture books, school textbooks,
magazine articles, advertisements, and
graphic novels - that involve a complex
interplay of written text, visual images,
graphics, and design elements.
As a consequence of (4) _______
above social changes, the field of education,
in particular, the teaching and learning of
languages has been influenced, as the
traditional literacy pedagogy, which
emphasizes language as a central means of
meaning, has been challenged to expand
beyond the skills of encoding and decoding
texts. In this way, educators should draw on
the Multiliteracies framework and reconsider
their instructional approaches in order to
familiarize students, especially, foreign
language learners, with the multimodal
approach by accentuating the interplay of
language and image that are present in
conventional and electronic texts.

GOOGLE HAS REFUSED GOVERNMENT
DEMANDS TO TAKE DOWN A
GAY MUSIC VIDEO IN KENYA
Kenya’s attempt to stop people from
watching a music video celebrating gay
couples is backfiring. Three weeks after
trying to ban a local rap artist’s remake of
Same Love, (1)__________ Macklemore
and Ryan Lewis, Google Kenya has refused
to pull the video from YouTube, where it has
now been viewed (2)____________ 140,000
times. Kenyan regulators banned the video
in late February, claiming that the content
threatens to turn the country
(3)___________ “Sodom and Gomorrah”
and declaring that anyone caught distributing
it would be punished. But the agency that
banned it also retweeted a link to it—which
ended up bringing more attention to Kenya’s
nascent gay rights campaign. (…)

Communicative approach
The communicative approach is based on the idea
that learning language successfully comes through
having to communicate real meaning. When learners
are involved in real communication, their natural
strategies for language acquisition will be used, and
this will allow them to learn to use the language.
Example
Practising question forms by asking learners to find
out personal information about their colleagues is an example of the communicative approach, as it
involves meaningful communication.
In the classroom
Classroom activities guided by the communicative
approach are characterised by trying to produce
meaningful and real communication, at all levels. As a
result there may be more emphasis on skills than
systems, lessons are more learner-centred, and there
may be use of authentic materials.

Generation Y
By Sally Kane, About.com Guide
Born in the mid-1980's and later, Generation Y legal professionals are in their 20s and are just entering the workforce. With numbers estimated as high as 70 million, Generation Y (also -1- as the Millennials) is the fastest growing segment of today's workforce. As law firms compete for available talent, employers cannot ignore the needs, desires and attitudes of this vast generation. Below are a few common traits that define Generation Y.
Tech-Savvy: Generation Y grew up with technology and rely on it to perform their jobs better. Armed with BlackBerrys, laptops, cellphones and other gadgets, Generation Y is plugged-in 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This generation prefers to communicate through e-mail and text messaging rather than face-to-face contact and -2- webinars and online technology to traditional lecture-based presentations.
Family-Centric: The fast-track has lost much of its appeal for Generation Y who is willing to trade high pay for fewer billable hours, flexible schedules and a better work/life balance. While older generations may view this attitude as narcissistic or lacking commitment, discipline and drive, Generation Y legal professionals have a different vision of workplace expectations and prioritize family over work.
Achievement-Oriented: Nurtured and pampered -3- parents who did not want to make the mistakes of the previous generation, Generation Y is confident, ambitious and achievement-oriented. They have high expectations of their employers, seek out new challenges and are not afraid to question authority. Generation Y wants meaningful work and a solid learning curve
Team-Oriented: As children, Generation Y participated in team sports, play groups and other group activities. They value teamwork and seek the input and affirmation of others. Part of a no-person-left-behind generation, Generation Y is loyal, committed and wants to be included and involved.
Attention-Craving: Generation Y craves attention in the forms of feedback and guidance. They appreciate being kept in the loop and seek frequent praise and reassurance. Generation Y may benefit greatly from mentors who can help guide and develop their young careers.

A man stepped onto the overnight train and told the conductor, “I need you to wake me up in Philadelphia. I'm a deep sleeper and can be angry when I get up, but no matter what, I want you to help me make that stop. Here's $100 to make sure".
The conductor agreed. The man fell asleep, and when he awoke he heard the announcement that the train was approaching New York, which meant they had passed Philadelphia a long time ago. Furious, he ran to the conductor. “I gave you $100 to make sure I got off in Philadelphia, you idiot!" “Wow," another passenger said to his traveling companion. “Is that guy mad!" “Yeah," his companion replied. “But not half as mad as that guy they forced off the train in Philadelphia."

Read the text below to answer question.
European Union member states could cut their plastic bag use by 80%, the European commission has said, by
charging for bags or even banning them.
Plastic bags are a major cause ofseaborne pollution, which is a serious hazard for marine life, and some regions have already
moved to cut their use through charging. The UK deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, has pledged to bring forward charges in
England that will affect single-use bags given out by supermarkets.
The European commission is proposing a new directive that would require member states to choose between three methods
ofreducing the waste from bags: charges, national reduction targets, or an outright ban.
The packaging industry has responded by saying that most people use their plastic bags more than once, for instance using
them as bins, but that does not cut the overall use.
When plastic bags, or pieces of them, find their way into the seas, they are a major hazard to marine life. A whale found dead
on the Southern Spanish coast was found to have swallowed 17kg of plastic waste, including plastic bags. Fish, seabirds and
mammals can ali ingest plastic, which they cannot digest and which can clog up their guts or cause choking.
One of the key problems with plastic bags is that they are so light and small that they easily escape into the environment,
defying attempts to recycle them. The European commission has identified this as a key reason for cutting the use ofthe bags,
and other plastic packaging. The first moves to legislate atan EU levei were made in 2011, and today's announcement is likely
to take at least two years to put into practice.
According to the most recent estimates, from 2008, the EU produces 3.4m tonnes of plastic bags in a year.
