Questions 43 to 45 refer to the following text.
Learning English as a foreign language is sometimes interchanged with learning English as a second language. Indonesian, Thai, and Japanese learn English as a foreign language, because the people have their own official language that is Indonesian, Thai, and Japanese respectively. In big cities in Indonesia, people speak Indonesian at home, in the shops and at schools whereas in small towns or in villages people speak Indonesian and vernaculars (Javanese, Balinese, Batak, etc.) interchangeably. They speak English only at schools in their English classrooms.
The Philippines has adopted English as a second language.' English is an official language in the Philippines for a different reason. The Philippines had been under successive foreign colonization, first Spanish and then American, for a long time. Even nowadays Spanish is still being taught in many high schools iii Manila. In the Philippines people speak Tagalog mostly at home and English mostly outside, in the same way as the Indonesians living in Central or East Java speak Javanese at home and Indonesian outside. English has become an official language and a medium of instruction at schools. Even at kindergarten children speak English for communication. No wonder most people from the Philippines are very fluent in English.

Questions 46 and 47 are based on the following text
PICKING A HOME THEATER
Home Theaters aren't just for movie moguls anymore. With a big-screen television, DVD player and surround sound-system, you can live like you're one of the rap stars on "MTV Cribs." But you don't need to take out a second mortgage to get the cinematic experience. There are packages to fit every budget. Television is the heart of your system. The bigger the TV is better, but don't empty your pockets while overwhelming the room with a TV that is just too large. Generally, for a 10-foot-by-10-foot room, a 27-inch screen is fine; if you watch a lot of movies on DVD, you should consider a wide screen set. A high quality DVD player is also important. Look for one that uses "progressive scanning," which displays a sharper image on TVs that support it.
UN-SMK-06-46
According to the reading, what is the most important part of a home theater?
A. Television. B. MTV Cribs: C. DVD Players.
D. A 10-foot-by-lO-foot room.
UN-SMK-06-47
