B. Read the following passage and select the best answer to each of the questions from 27 to 32. (1.5 pt)

Ever since Sir Stamford Raffles claimed the island of Singapore for the East India Company in 1819, English has
had a place in Singapore. During the years of British rule, Singapore grew massively in size. Many people came to
Singapore from other British colonies, especially from India and Ceylon, and neighboring areas. The population of
Singapore is now approximately 77% Chinese, 14% Malay, and 8% Indian. There has also been a small scattering of
other ethnic groups including Europeans of various sorts, Japanese, Arabs, and Jews. As a result, it is common for
people to know and use four or five languages in their daily life. Most children grow up bilingual from infancy and
learn more languages as they grow up.
