Questions One and Two are based on Text A
Read Text A below and answer the questions set.
TEXT A
Saudi Arabia Wants to Build This Bizarre City Dubbed “The Line”
The ambitious project sounds like something from a dystopian sci-fi movie about the death
of the planet.
Saudi Arabia is developing a new city, 150-stories tall and built from scratch, that
will serve as a semi-enclosed environment where people can live and work without
ever stepping foot outside. And while the promotional videos released Monday are
likely an attempt to give the development a utopian feel that recalls so many
“intentional cities” of the 20th century, the project comes across as extremely
dystopian.
The city, completely walled on four sides with some kind of ventilation on top, is
planned to be about 546 yards tall (500 meters), 218 yards wide (200 meters), and
105 miles long (170 km), according to the promotional videos, and will feature
cutting-edge technology along with high-speed transportation from end-to-end. Cars
will be completely unnecessary.
A video uploaded to Twitter proclaims this new city will house 9 million residents to
provide a more healthy and “sustainable” quality of life. And while it’s being
advertised as an eco-friendly project, with water and power supplies billed as “100%
renewable,” the details have yet to be provided.
“For too long, humanity has existed within dysfunctional and polluted cities that
ignore nature. Now, a revolution in civilization is taking place. Imagine a traditional
city and consolidating its footprint, designing to protect and enhance nature,” the
narrator of the new video explains.
The video shows what appears to be autonomous drones zipping around the new
city, with plenty of greenery. And people who live there will supposedly be able to
go from one end to another in just 20 minutes.
“Residents have access to all their daily needs within 5-minute walk
neighbourhoods,” the narrator continues.
Another promotional video, uploaded to YouTube on Tuesday and similar in
content, shows the city from the perspective of a young woman literally flying
through the environment. And its soundtrack definitely helps it sound dystopian—a
dark and spooky cover of Louis Armstrong’s “It’s a Wonderful World.”
Why would they use a dark and spooky version of the song—something you’d be
more likely to hear in the trailer for a 2010s movie about a serial killer? Your guess
is as good as ours. But it’s certainly a choice.
