Text 1 (for question number 1-3 )

Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon,

without making physical contact with the object. In modern usage, the term
generally refers to the use of aerial sensor technology to detect and classify
objects on Earth (both on the surface, and in the atmosphere and ocean) by
means of propagated signals (e.g. electromagnetic radiation emitted from aircraft
or satellites).
There are two main types or remote sensing: passive remote sensing and active
remote sensing. Passive sensors detect natural radiation that is emitted or
reflected by the objects or surrounding area being observed. Reflected sunlight is
the most common source of radiation measured by passive censors. Examples of
passive remote sensors include film photography, infra-red, charge-coupled
devices, and radiometers. Active collection, on the other hand, emits energy in
order to scan objects and areas whereupon a sensor then detects and measures
the radiation that is reflected or backscattered from the target. RADAR and
LIDAR are examples of active remote sensing where the time delay between
emission and return is measured, stabilizing the location, height, speed and
direction of an object.

TEXT 3
School Uniform, Another Good Lesson
School uniform is special clothes worn by all students of a particular school.
The uniform of a school may differ from others. Why should schools use uniforms?
Below are some reasons.
First of all, Notre Dames Department of Sociology produced a study in
1998 concerning school uniforms. Their findings using 10th grade students
showed that uniforms have no direct effect on substance abuse, behavioral
problems or attendance. It also claimed a negative effect on student
achievements for those students considered pro-school.
Secondly, uniform helps to create a strong sense school ethos and a sense
of belonging to a particular community. As such it promotes discipline and helps to
drive up academic standards, which is why a uniform is often adopted by schools
which are being reopened with a fresh start after being classified as failing.
Finally, uniform acts as a social leveler, under which all students are equal
in the eyes of the school and of each other. In institutions without uniform
students are often competitive and worry endlessly about their appearance and
the clothes they should wear. Pupils without expensive designer clothes and
trainers may be singled out as social outcasts, or stigmatized as being from poor
backgrounds. For these reasons many parents prefer uniforms as they save them
money on buying clothes for school wear. Considering the findings, schools should
implement the uniform as their identity. The government should also publish some
kind of rule which makes uniform compulsory for schools.
