Silk Weaving in the ASEAN Region

For the silk textile lover, the ASEAN region contains a treasure trove of the most beautiful hand- woven fabrics found anywhere in the world. These textiles are surprising in their diversity: from the ikats of Cambodia and Thailand, to the golden songket of Indonesia and Malaysia, to the Philippine pina silk and the Vietnamese silk shantung- each country offers its own century-old weaving traditions to visitors.

Weaving at the household and village level is done on large wooden frame looms, often under stilt houses. Intricate Cambodian ikats are world-renowned. It can take up to several days or more to produce one meter of an intricate ikat pattern. Ikat patterns were traditionally passed from generation to generation by memory; prior to the war, more than 200 different patterns were known to be in existence, but it is unclear how many have survived. Artisans Angkor, located in both Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, trains young Cambodians from rural areas in the art of weaving and other Cambodian crafts.

In Thailand, the cultivation of silkworms and weaving can be traced back thousands of years. Weaving patterns of Thailand's finest weaving, including mudmee, or ikat, are rich and diverse thanks to the influence of the different ethnic groups, including Khmer and Lao peoples. Mudmee is woven throughout the northeast, with each local community having its own distinct styles and designs, incorporating everything from nagas to elephants and peacocks. While chemical dyes are widely available, some weavers continue to practice traditional dyeing methods passed down through the generations.

Viet Nam has become a center for large-scale silkworm and thread production in Southeast Asia, including handloomed silk shantung and jacquards, supplying its neighbors where sericulture is limited or disappeared entirely during the war years. Viet Nam has 54 different ethnic groups, each with their own distinct weaving traditions. Among the Black Thai in northwest Viet Nam's Son La province, for example, young girls are expected to learn how to raise silkworms and make natural dyes using indigo.

READING

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 17 to 20. (1.0 point)

Global warming, a phenomenon that has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges facing our planet today, refers to the gradual increase in Earth's average surface temperature. This rise in temperature is primarily attributed to human activities, particularly the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The consequences of global warming are far-reaching and have profound implications for the environment, ecosystems, and human life.

Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels for energy, deforestation, industrial processes, and agriculture, release significant amounts of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O), into the atmosphere. These gases create a "greenhouse effect," trapping heat from the sun and preventing it from escaping back into space. As a result, the Earth's temperature gradually rises, leading to global warming.

One of the most evident consequences of global warming is the melting of polar ice caps and glaciers. As temperatures rise, vast ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland are losing mass at an alarming rate, contributing to rising sea levels. This phenomenon poses a severe threat to low-lying coastal regions and small island nations, increasing the risk of devastating floods and displacing millions of people.

The warming climate also disrupts weather patterns, leading to more frequent and intense extreme weather events. Heatwaves, hurricanes, cyclones, and droughts become more common, inflicting considerable damage to ecosystems, agriculture, and infrastructure. The agricultural sector faces challenges in adapting to changing growing conditions, which can result in food shortages and price fluctuations.

Additionally, global warming poses a grave threat to biodiversity. Many plant and animal species struggle to adapt to the rapidly changing climate or face habitat loss due to shifting temperatures. Consequently, some species may become extinct, disrupting delicate ecosystems and affecting the balance of nature.

A. urgent      B. difficult     C. stressful      D. impossible

A. greenhouse effect     B. heat      C. the sun       D. threat

Question 20. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about global warming? 

A. Global warming refers to the gradual increase in Earth's average surface temperature.

B. The primary cause of global warming is the emission of greenhouse gases from human activities.

C. Global warming leads to a decrease in sea levels due to melting ice caps.

D. Global warming has far-reaching consequences for the environment and human life.

In the cities of the future, people will experience big changes in their everyday lives. These urban residents will be part of a highly advanced and connected environment, where new technologies and innovative infrastructure come together to make city life easier and more efficient.

Future cities will have smart systems that use resources well, make getting around easier, and help protect the environment. Buildings will be energy-efficient and have smart sensors that adjust things like temperature and lighting based on how many people are there. This will save energy and reduce the amount of pollution. Transportation systems will be well-connected, so people can easily move from one place to another. Electric and self-driving cars will also be common, which means less traffic and less air pollution.

In addition, technology will change the way people interact with their city. Advanced augmented reality (AR) systems will show digital information on top of the real world, giving people useful and personalized suggestions. They will also be able to navigate the city with the help of interactive holographic displays that show important places, public transportation options, and real-time traffic updates. Also, there will be fast internet everywhere, so people can easily communicate and connect everyday objects to the internet to make life easier.

But there will also be challenges along with these advancements. People in future cities will need to adapt to new complexities and risks. As technology becomes more important for critical infrastructure, there will be a bigger risk of cyber-attacks and data breaches. It will be important to have strong security measures to protect people's privacy and keep their information safe from bad actors.
