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.

In the 1920s the second emerged with the use of oil and the electrodynamo. 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 of the 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 of living, 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?

a. The use of oil

b. The use of computer

c. The use of electricity

d. The use of coal

28. What is stated as being the main weakness of the Third Industrial Revolution?

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.

29. Why does the author think that there won't be enough people to buy the products?

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. Many people will be unemployed.

30. What do we infer is the author's attitude to the technology?

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.

Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects, such as overs (envelopes or packages with stamps on them). It is one of the world’s most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranging up to 20 million in the United States alone.

Many casual collectors enjoy accumulating stamps without worrying about the tiny details, but the creation of a large or comprehensive collection generally requires some philatelic knowledge. This is especially important for those who intend to spend large amounts for stamps.

Stamps collectors are an important source of revenue for some small countries who create limited runs of elaborate stamps designed mainly to be bought by stamps collectors. The stamps produced by these countries far exceed the postal needs of the countries.

Some collectors, observing the generally rising prices of rare stamps, have taken to Philatelic Investment. Rare stamps are among the most portable of tangible investments, and are easy to store. They offer an attractive alternative to art, other collectible investments, and precious metals

IV. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer:

Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboo in a particular culture.

In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they're trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children.

As a general rule, it's best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host's team.

26. The author considers politics and religion ________________.

a. cheerful topics

b. taboo

c. rude topics

d. topics that can never be talked about

27. Which is typically a friendly topic in most places according to the author?

a. sports     b. children

c. personal feelings     d. families

28. Why are people from Asia more private in their conversation with others ?

a. They don't want to talk with others much.

b. They don't want to have their good relationship with others harmed by informal conversation.

c. They are afraid to argue with their colleagues.

d. They want to keep their feelings to themselves.

29. What shouldn't you do when talking about sports with colleagues from another country?

a. Praising your own country's sports.

b. Criticizing your own country's sports.

c. Praising the sports of your colleagues' country.

d. Criticizing the sports of your colleagues' country.
