<b>Choose the best sentence that can be arranged from the words given.</b>
<b>Read the two passages carefully and choose the correct answer.</b>

In developing countries, people are sometimes unaware of the importance of education, and there is economic pressure
from those parents who prioritize their children's, making money in the short term over any long-term benefits of education.
Recent studies on child labor and, poverty have suggested that when poor families reach a certain economic threshold where
families are able to provide for their basic needs, parents return their children to school. This has been found to be true, once the
threshold has been breached, even if the potential economic value of the children's work has increased since their return to
school.

Other problems are that teachers are often paid less than other professions; a lack of good universities and a low
acceptance rate for good universities are evident in countries with a relatively high population density.

India has launched EDUSAT, an education satellite that can reach remote parts of the country at a greatly reduced cost.
There is also ail initiative supported by several major corporations to develop a $100 laptop. The laptops have been available
since 2007. The laptops, sold at cost, will enable developing countries to give their children a digital education. In Africa, an
"e-school program" has been launched to provide all 600,000 primary and high "e-schools with computer equipment, learning
materials and internet access within 10 years. Volunteer groups are working to give more individuals opportunity to receive
education in developing countries through such programs as the Perpetual Education Fund. An International Development
Agency project started with the support of American President Bill Clinton uses the Internet to allow co-operation by
individuals on issues of social development.
