The percentage of languages that are dying out in Asia is only around 20% from the total number of languages dying out in the world, despite it having around 60% of the global population is due to two reasons:
- <em>Number of languages;</em>
Asia, even though it has around 60% of the world's population, it only has around one third of the languages spoken in the world, so automatically there's a big disproportion between the number of population and number of languages, thus giving it a smaller percentage of languages dying out.
- <em>Keeping the tradition;</em>
Lots of Asian nations are not very willing to let their traditional language to die out and continue to speak it. Apart from the traditional point of view, another reason is that Asia has global economic powers, so learning languages like the English or Spanish are not of great benefit in general, so the pressure is much lesser.

The correct answer is - D. It is impossible to dig through the ice on Antarctica.
Even though the technology is much more advanced nowadays than in the past, the extraction of the numerous natural resources from Antarctica is still pretty much impossible because of the ice cover over the continent.
On average, the ice is around 2 km thick on top of the landmass. Considering the fact that in order to get to the resources, the people will have to dig even more into the ground after they manage to break through the ice, makes it almost impossible, and not to mention economically unjustifiable.
Yes because the Earth was one big ocean at one point
