次の英文を読んで,あとの設問に答えなさい。
Puanani Wilhelm is an assistant language teacher from Hawaii. Today she is
talking ( 1 ) her students about Hawaiian history and language.
Aloha, everyone!
As you know, I am from Hawaii. If you have been there, maybe you noticed that
there are many different kinds of people in Hawaii.
Some people call our islands “the melting pot of the Pacific. "The first people
came to Hawaii over 1,000 years ago from other Polynesian islands. Their
descendants, like myself, are called “Hawaiians," but we are a ( 2 ). There are
also many people from different parts of the world: Japan, Korea, China, the
Philippines, Europe, and other American states. ( 3 ) there are many different
races and nationalities, we seem to be getting along very well.
There are lots of different languages too. Of course English is our main
language, but did you know that Hawaiian is also an official language? I'd like to
tell you a little about it.
Have you heard people ( 4 ) Hawaiian before? You all know that aloha means
'hello,' but it also means 'welcome' and 'love.' Do you know how to say "Thank
you" in Hawaiian? We say "Mahalo !"
Hawaiian is a very musical language. We have only forty syllables in our
language, and the sound is very soft. In the old times, we had no writing system,
so our history and our stories were passed on from parents to children by ( 5 ).
In the nineteenth century Europeans and Americans came to our islands and
set our language into the Roman alphabet. By the late nineteenth century, more
than ninety percent of the population could read and write ( 6a ). In 1896,
however, ( 6b ) was declared the official language, and Hawaiian was no longer
taught in schools. By 1902 they had closed all the Hawaiian language schools. It
seemed that the Hawaiian language would die out. Then in the early 1970s, we
began a movement to revive our native Hawaiian culture and language.
As part of the movement to revive the Hawaiian language, a nursery school
called Punαna Leo was set up in 1984. The word Punana means 'nest' and leo
means 'voice' or 'language.'
This school is for children from the age of two to five. Just as little birds in their
nests learn from their mothers, children are taught to use Hawaiian all day long.
I also went to Punana Leo, and then, when it was time to enter, public school, I
went to Kaiapuni. All subjects there are taught in Hawaiian. I started to study
English as a second language in the fifth grade, so now I can speak both
Hawaiian and English.
(7)The number of young people who can not speak Hawaiian is increasing
rapidly, and more and more families speak Hawaiian at home. Less than a
generation ago, no one thought that would be possible.
You may wonder why Hawaiians are so eager to maintain their native language.
(8)ithinktheansweristhatlanguageismorethanjustameansofexchanginginformation.
We see the world around us through the window of our language. It enables
us to share the history and culture of our people, and so it helps us find our
identity. If we lose our language, we lose something of ourselves.
( 9 ) here in Japan. What happens to your culture and identity? English is
useful for communication in many parts of the world, but your mother tongue is
an important part of your identity.
In Japan, too, there is a minority language, just as in Hawaii. The Ainu people
have lost much of their language and culture. Today, they are trying to revive their
traditions.
In this class we are going to study English of course, but I want you to
remember that your mother tongue is the most important language in the world.
Mahalo for listening.
