Read the passage, and then choose the correct answer.
Man is a land animal, but he closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of
man. The sea provided man with food and convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly
two thirds of the world’s population lives within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land
are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hopped to supply many of man’s needs.
The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas
exploration have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of mineral exist on the ocean floor
ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and
shellfish is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by the Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new source of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature
of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible
use as a source of energy. Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The
development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the
problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals and energy sources of the sea will be largely
solved.

Read the passage, and then choose the correct answer.
Originally, all films were made to be shown in movie theatres. The development of television has allowed
films to be broadcast to larger audiences, usually after the films are no longer being shown in theatres. Recording
technology has also enabled consumers to rent or buy copies of films on video tapes or DVDs, and Internet
downloads may be available and have started to become good sources for the film companies. Some films are
now made specifically for TV movies or direct-to-video. These films are often considered not to be as interesting
as films that are shown in theatres. And indeed, some films are not enjoyed. The movie theatre pays an average
of about 55% of its tickets sales to the movie studio, as films rental fees. Actually, when the film is shown on the
first days the theatre has to pay higher price to the movie studio and then the money is decreased after the
duration of the film’s showing. According to a study made in 2000, about 26% of Hollywood movie studios’
17
worldwide income came from box office ticket sales; 46% came from DVD sales to consumers; and 28% came
from television broadcast.
