Alexander Chaika, a private farmer in Timashevsk, bas other things to worry about. I found him one cool spring morning ankle deep in mud in front of his half finished, aluminum equipment shed. It had rained the night before, and the rich black earth of his 865-acre farm was too gummy for his tractors. The beet planting would have to wait. Chaika's brother and his three hired hands were repairing an old tractor. Chaika himself was on the cell phone, inquiring about fertilizer, the purchase of a new tractor, and the endless papers he had to file with local authorities. I soon learned that Chaika, like most of Russia's successful farmers, rarely gets behind the wheel of a tractor, be's too tangled up in red tape and errands. Chaika is one of Russia's 265.000 private farmers, who work 8 percent of the nation's farmland. A decade ago the country had big hopes for private farming, but that romance has been replaced by hard realities. High interest loans, the reluctance of collective farms to part with more land, and the lack of government subsidies have taken a heavy toll. Typical of Russia's farmers, Chaika got his start ten years ago when land and credits were easier to secure. Quitting his job as foreman at a nearby collective farm, he started with 173 acres of land and a leased tractor. "I didn't want anyone over my head, ordering me around," said Chaika. "I wanted to count on myself." (National Geographic, November 2001) What is the main idea of the paragraphs? A. The challenge becoming private farmer. B. Alexander Chaika is a farmer in Rusia. C. the typical of Rusia farmer D. the private farmers in Rusia E. Chaika's farmland

Two young women giggled under their white straw hats as they emerged from the Beijing Railway Station. Strolling arm in arm, they passed rooftops capped with satellite dishes and headed for a shopping complex where an obelisk with competing messages displayed on each side marked the way. "March ahead along the road of building socialism with Chinese characteristics," said one sign in Chinese script. "Descendants of the dragon use the Dragon Card", said another sign, urging consumers to use a new bank credit card. Both messages seemed to be vying for market share in the minds of Beijing's people. In this and other ways today's Beijing is awash with change, where the old Confucian ideals of personal cultivation and family values clash with a new emphasis on money and the market, where a bureaucratic culture designed to hold people in check is replaced by a rootless mobility, where a construction boom is reshaping Beijing's low slung profile and cramped alleys with soaring skyscrapers of glass and steel, where car traffic clogs street that once rang with bicycle bells, where dust mixed with vehicle exhaust to form a near constant polluted haze, where an employment create unease, where corruption has brought thousands of protesting citizens into the streets. "Before we were controlled by the Communist Party bosses," said a Beijinger who has lived in America for a decade but returns home for regular visits. "Now it's the bosses of companies. The change has been tremendous." His friends and family, once certain of jobs and stable prices, now worry that the new money driven economy will leave them behind. "This is a big influence on relationships within families and among friends and across the social structure," he said. "There is real discontent and anxiety, but people are adjusting." Over the centuries the people of Beijing have become expert at adjusting. Like the willows planted around the capital, people have survived by being flexible, yielding to strong winds, then springing back as stillness returns. (National Geographic, March 2000) The following statements are true according to the text, except .... A. Demonstration occurs if there's corruption involved. B. There are a lot of skyscrapers building in Beijing same as in America. C. Flexibility in Beijing's people is reflected in daily life. D. Two young women were soon joined in the crowded market. E. The change affects on the relationship within families and friends.

The information and communication technology revolution can be easily recognized as the latest revolution in the history of mankind, impacting every facet of business, society, and life worldwide with a speed beyond imagination. The last centuries have seen a continuous evolution process, which started with industrial revolution at the end of 18th century. This revolution has its roots in the invention of the first electronic computers in the 1940s, continued with the development of information technology during following decades and exploded in the early 1990s. In the 1960s and 1970s, computer technology was mainly utilized in business data processing and scientific applications of a mostly number crunching nature. As a result, the-use of this technology was limited to those who had a good command of these systems and computer programming languages. With the invention of microprocessors a new idea of distributed information established itself and computers became available on a personal basis. The contemporary development of networking both on a local and a wide area (LAN and WAN) *merged* computer and information technology with telecommunication. In 1980s the matching of the two technologies Jed to the information communication technology, with a strong focus on the management and dissemination of information by both providers and users. The most noticeable explosion in the information and communication technology revolution was the creation of the World Wide Web (WWW) and each potential in the early 1990s. During the past two decades, WWW technologies have become the driving force in allowing people worldwide to communicate and exchange information ways that have created a totally new dimension in mankind, at such a point that "global villages" are the words today better describing our planet. In recent years, through the use of web-enabled technologies, organizations of all types and sizes around the world have managed to utilize these technologies to conduct both information processing and dissemination with their prospective customers, suppliers, students, and governments. These technologies, now allowing readily available information for everyone regardless of their geographic location, bring the true meaning of the information age to its full realization and prepare a new era for mankind: the knowledge society. In recent years, the science of understanding the nature of information processing and management combined with computer and telecommunkation technologies to process, disseminate, and manage information has become known as "information and communication science and technology". It has many resources and components and originated many new disciplines but, what is more, it intervenes in changing mankind's habits and life-style. (Adapted from Cartelli, A & M. Palma (Eds.) 2009, Encyclopedia of Information Communication and Technology, New York, Hersey) The author organizes the ideas in the text by ... A. contrasting the technology of earlier years to that of recent years B. showing the revolution of technology in different areas C. explaining the cause and its effects of technology across different eras D. emphasizing the characteristics of technology in each period E. presenting the development of technology chronologically
