III. Read the following passage and choose A, B, C, or D to fill in the gaps:

Computerization has changed high school education in many ways. The first is the use of the
computer as a teaching aid for teachers. The next is the massive data storage and fast data gain
from computers. In early 1980s only 20% of high school teachers in the US used computers.
However, since then high schools in the US have computerized rapidly. In 1987, school
acquired about 1.5 million computers with 95% of the schools having at least one computer. At
school, teachers can use a computer to bring texts, sound and pictures into a classroom. With a
computer, they can more readily attract and retain students’ attention. Computers can also speed
up the teaching process and make difficult- to-explain ideas straights forward. This means that
teachers can spend more time answering students’questions and catering for đáp ứngother
needs. Computer software can shorten the learning process by illustrating real world
applications of abstract theories.
