Read the following excerpt from a speech delivered by actress and activist Angelina jolle on World Refugee Day in 2009. Which two
sentences correctly describe the speaker's point of view?
were here today to talk about millions of desperate families--families so cut-off from civilization that they don't even know that a day like
this is on their behalf. Milions. And numbers can illuminate but they can also obscure. So I am here today to say that refugees are not
numbers. Theyre not even just refugees. They are mothers and daughters and fathers and sons--they are farmers, teachers, doctors,
engineers, they are individuals all. And most of all they are survivors-each one with a remarkable story that tells of resilience in the face of
great loss. They are the most impressive people have ever met and they are also some of the world's most vulnerable. Stripped of home
and country, refugees are buffeted from every ill wind that blows across this planet...
As an American I know the strength that diversity has given my country. A country built by what now some would dismiss as asylum seekers
or economic migrants. And I believe we must persuade the world that refugees must now be simply viewed as a burden. They are survivors.
And they can bring those qualities to the service of their communities and the countries that shelter them.
1.War and difficult situations turn ordinary people into strong survivors.
2.Refugee camps don't have the resources to care for all refugees.
3.Refugees are not a burden but an asset to the country that shelters them.
4.People in peaceful countries dont appreciate what they have.
5.The United States is a nation built on the efforts of economic migrants.
