<b>Question 3. Read the following passage and choose the best option. [05p] </b>


The loss of the jobs and persistent unemployment in the industrial countries is due mainly to changes
in technology. It is thought to be misleading to blame job losses on the shift of corporations from the
industrial countries to the Third World.


The present technological developments have been compared to a Third Industrial Revolution. The
first coming in the 19th century, was characterized by the steam engine and the use of coal. In the 1920s
the second emerged with the use ofoil and the electro dynamo. The third, the present one, is driven by
computers, biotechnology and information technology.


However, there can be seen weaknesses in the newest of industrial revolutions. The technology is
advancing so fast and productivity is rising so fast that we are left with a big problem.. Because ofthe
loss in jobs, caused largely by this new, technology, there will not be enough people with money to buy
all these products.


Technology as definitely enhanced our standard ofliving, even our quality of life. But as the capacity to
produce expands and the lack of purchasing power and consequent demand diminish, there can be
overproduction and recession, and what happens to our standard of living?



1.<i> What is the main point the author is making? </i>


A. That the industrial countries have more unemployment than the Third World.
B. That technology is the main cause of unemployment.


C. That corporations have shifted to the Third World.


D. That the present situation is like in the Industrial Revolution.


2.<i> Which of the following is not a characteristic of one of the industrial revolutions? </i>


A. The use of oil B. The use of computer


C. The use of electricity D. The use of coal


3<i>. What is stated as being the main weakness of the Third Industrial Revolution? </i>
A. There will be too few people who can afford to buy things.


B. there won't be enough products for everyone to buy.
C. There will not be enough money around.


D. There will be too many machines in the factories.


4. <i>Why does the author think that there won't be enough people to buy the product? </i>


A. People will not be able to keep up with technology. B. Productivity will not be high enough.
C. There will be too many products. D. <i>Many people will be unemployed </i>
5<i>. What do we infer is the author's attitude to the technology? </i>



A. It has improved our purchasing power B. It has improved our quality of life.
C. It has created more jobs D. It is not responsible for the recession.

<b>Sample Writing </b>


<i> I agree that a family plays a critical role in a society. It is from a family where everything begins. Family is a </i>
<i>base unit of a society. It is what constitutes to form a country and it shows the society’s identity. It tells us a lot </i>
<i>of it from the way a family thinks, works, plays and behaves. Comparing a typical and traditional Asian family </i>
<i>to a normal European family. Both have a different way of doing things. Asian families are usually very </i>
<i>conservative in their way of thinking. For various situations, they settle it according to beliefs and mindset </i>
<i>based on strong morale values and in a conformist way, whereas for European families, they are more open </i>
<i>minded on various issues, thinking that if it does not harm and hurt anyone or themselves, it will be fine. And so </i>
<i>families in this case actually serve as an ambassador of a society. They are the ones that give outsiders a </i>
<i>certain impression of a society, setting a reputation. </i>


<i> When seeing it from a micro perspective, it is a place where the imparting of knowledge occur. In a family, the </i>
<i>parents educate their children, teaching them various values, guiding them towards adulthood. As the children </i>
<i>are often with their parents, they are heavily influenced by them. Whatever the parents do, the children will </i>


<i>follow suit. This is the point where it is important. The younger generation is the future of tomorrow. They must </i>
<i>be guided properly so that they, with the necessary skills, will be able to bring the country to greater heights. </i>
<i>The society and nation depends on them. Hence family plays major role and it is about the nurturing of good </i>
<i>citizens and future leaders of the nation. If the family does not do its part properly, it will be more of a </i>
<i>disadvantage to the nation in the future and the society will have a hard time progressing. </i>


<i> Family is a place where warmth can be felt. Members of a family will share love, care and concern to each </i>
<i>other, felling his sense of attachment; their close relationship will be even more bonded. In this way they can </i>
<i>feel the essence of living and be able to enjoy life to its fullest extent since humans have emotions. With such a </i>
<i>positive atmosphere and united spirit, it will definitely do more good than harm to the society. </i>
