Question 1 – 10

Information Technology (IT) is the area of managing technology and covers a wide variety

Of areas that include computer software, information systems, computer hardware, programming

Languanges and are not limited to things such as processes, and data constructs. In short, anything

That renders data, information or perceived knowledge in any visual format whatscever, via any

Multimedia distribution mechanism is considered part of the IT demain. IT provides businesset with (5)

Four sets of core services to help execute the business strategy, business process automation,

Providing information, connecting with customers, and productivity tools.

IT Pofesionals perform a variety of functiones (IT Disciplines Competencies) that ranges

From installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases.

A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include data management, networking, (10)

Engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as management and

Administration of entire systems. Information technology is starting to spread beyond the

Conventional personal computer and network technologies, and more into integrations of other

Technologies such as the use of cell phones, televisions, automobiles, and more. Which is increasing

The demand for such jobs. (15)

In the recent past, the Acreditation Board for Engineering and Technology and the Association

For Computing Machinery (ACM) have collaborated to form accreditation and curriculum methods

For degress in Information Technology as distinct field of study as compared to Computer Science

And information systems today. Special Interest Group for IT Education (SIGITE) is the ACM working

Group for defining these standards. The worldwide IT services revences iccaled Ꞩ 763 trillions in 2009.

Questions 11 – 20

As noted by the USDOL’s Burean of Labor Statisties (BLS), there is no widely accepted

Standard definition of “green jobs.” In studies reviewed by BLS, neither of the standard classification

Systems most frequently used (i.e., the North American Industry Classificatoin System nor NAICS, or

The Standard occupational Classification System or SOC) identifies green or environmental groups of

Industries or occupations. However, for purposes of discussions, green jobs generally referred to a (5)

Wide variety of jobs that are related to preserving or restoring the environment, reducing energy

Usage, or lowering carbon emissions.

These jobs can be divided into energy efficiency and renewable energy categories. Energy

Efficiency jobs can involve retrofilting homes or developing and manufacturing products that save

Energy. Renewable energy jobs include creating and maintaining technologies that generate energy (10)

From resources that are naturally replenished (i.e solar and wind power).

It is clear that many factors will influence the eventual make up of green jobs, and expecially

Renewable energy jobs, in a given area. These include state and local policies, existing workforce

Strengths, natural resources, geography, and infrastructure. The term “green jobs” often conjures

Images of contruction or manufacturing jobs, but given jobs may include a wide variety of (15)

Positions, including administation and back office support, financial services, salespersons, truck

Drivers, scientists, and egineers, among others, as long as the jobs have something to do with either

Increasing the supplay of renewable energy or energy conservation. While some green jobs will be

New jobs, the majority of green jobs in the immediate future are expected to be existing jobs that

Will require a new layer of “green skills and knowledge”. This would include a welder who needs to (20)

Learn new techniques to manufacture a wind turbine. For example on the other land, an

Experienced carpenter may not require any new skills to install an energy efficient window. The

Largest number of green jobs is expected to be in occupations requiring an apprenticeship

Professional certificate, or one to two years post secondary education.

Question 21-30

Fish farming is the principal form of aquaculture, while other methods may fall

Under mariculture. Fish farming involves raising fish commercially in tanks or coclosures, usually for
food.

A facility which release young (juvenile) fish into the wild for recreational fishing or to supplement a

Species’ natural numbers is generally referred to as a fish batebery. The most common fish species

Raised by fish farms are salmon, carp, tilapia, European seabass, catfish and cod. (5)

There is an increasing demand for fish and fish protein, which has resulted in widespread

Overfishing in wild fisheries. Fish farming offers fish marketers another source. However, farming

Carnivorous fish, such as salmon, does not always reduce preasure on wild fisberies, since

Carnivorous farmed fish are usually fed fishmeal and fish oil extracted from wild forage fish. In this

Way, the salmon can consume in weight more wild fish than they weight themselves. The global (10)

Returns for fish farming recorded by the FAO in 2008 totaled 33,8 million tons worth about SUS 60

billion.

The issue of feeds in fish farming has been controversial one. Many cultured fishes filapia

Carp, catfish, and many others require no meat or fish products in their diets. Top level carnivores

(most salmon species) depend on fish feed of which a portion is usually derived from wild enough fish
(15)

(anchovies, menhaden etc). vegetables derived proteins have successfully replaced fish meal in

Feeds for carnivorous fishes, but vegetable – derived oils have not successfully been incorpored in

The diets of carnivores.

Secondly, farmed fish are kept in concentrations never soon in the wild (e.g 50,000) fish in

2-acre (8,100 m2) area) with each fish occupying less room than the average bullish. This are (20)

Several forms of pollution. Packed lightly, fish rub against each other and the sides of their cages,

Damaging their fins and tails and becoming sickened with various diseases and infections. This
Also causes stress.

However, fish tend also to be animals that aggregate into large schools at high density. Most

Successful aquaculture species are schooling species, which do not have social problems at high (25)

Density. Aquaculturie s tend to feel that operating a rearing system above its design capacity or

Above the social density limit of the fish will result in decreased growth rate and increases FCR (Food

Conversion ratio – kg dry feed/Kg of fish produced), which will result in increased cost and risk of

Health problems along with a decrease in profits. Stressing the animals is not desirable, but the

Concept of and measurement of stress must be viewed from the perspective of the animal using the
(30)

Scientific method.

Question 31-40

The age of commerce ended for Indonesia as it began with the changes in demand for

the products that Indonesia supplied to international markets. The second and third quarters

of the seventeenth century saw economic crisis replacing boom in most of the economically advanced

world, including Europe and China. Prices were falling, population numbers stagnating or even

declining, and political crises challenging established rulers and state systems. (5)

Indonesian trades were also hit by regulations issued by the Japanese government in 1639,

Closing that country off to all international trade expect with China and the Netherlands. Up until

This time, direct trade between China and Japan had been banned, in theory if not in fact, as one of

The ways the ban was overcome was through the exchange of goods in overseas ports. One of the

Most important of these ports was Banten in west java, whose role in the Chinese trade networks (10)

Across the region has already been noted. When the Japanese government decided to close the

Country off from the rest of the world, this trade network collapsed virtually overnight.

The external word had changed in other ways too. In 1567 the Ming Dynasty in China had

Repealed the regulation prohibiting its citizens from engaging in private overseas trade, this freeing

Chinese trades to once again sailed directly to Indonesia to collect the goods they wished to import. (15)

This they had begun to do, and in large numbers, squeezing out many of the Indonesian

Intermediaries who had been carrying goods north to China.
