Có thể kết luận gì về chính phủ trong đoạn 3?
A. Chính phủ không đánh giá cao tầm quan trọng của các ngôn ngữ thiểu số.
B. Những người không thuộc chính phủ sẽ được phép nói ngôn ngữ địa phương của họ.
C. Người dân địa phương sẽ bị sao nhãng trong công việc nếu họ sử dụng ngôn ngữ của tổ tiên họ.
D. Tốt hơn là để cho những ngôn ngữ thiểu số này biến mất một cách tự nhiên bằng cách phớt lờ chúng.
Thông tin: This means that while many people may feel a sentimental attachment to their local language, their government's position should be one of benign neglect, allowing people to speak the language, but not acting to prevent its eventual disappearance.
Tạm dịch: Điều này có nghĩa rằng trong khi nhiều người cảm thấy khá gắn kết với ngôn ngữ địa phương họ, thì thái độ của chính phủ nên là nhẹ nhàng phớt lờ, vẫn cho phép họ nói ngôn ngữ đó, nhưng lại không làm gì để bảo tồn nó khỏi sự biến mất dần dần.
=> Như vậy, thái độ nhẹ nhàng phớt lờ, không hề bảo tồn các ngôn ngữ thiểu số là cách để cho nó bị đào thải một cách tự nhiên.
