Reading Comprehension Reading Passage A Language has long functioned not merely as a medium of communication but as a site where power is negotiated and exercised. In contemporary digital environments, this function is increasingly mediated by technological systems that regulate how language circulates and acquires authority. Although such systems are often framed as neutral tools, their design embeds assumptions about legitimacy and normativity. Algorithms that rank, filter, or generate language do not eliminate power relations; instead, they reconfigure them in less visible forms. As a result, linguistic authority becomes intertwined with technical infrastructure. As universities work to cultivate critical awareness of technological mediation, language education must extend beyond mere proficiency to include an interrogation of the conditions under which meaning is produced.

14. The author challenges claims of technological neutrality by emphasizing: computational error (B) market incentives (C) embedded assumptions in design (D) user resistance

15. The phrase "less visible forms" suggests that power relations are: diminishing (B) becoming more transparent (C) irrelevant to discourse (D) concealed within technical systems

16. Universities are presented as institutions that must: adapt by adopting new technologies (B) abandon traditional language instruction (C) resist digital transformation (D) cultivate critical awareness of mediation
