Over the last two decades, the use of ICT has been an important topic in education. On the
one hand, studies have shown that ICT can enhance teaching and learning outcomes. For
example, in science and mathematics education, scholars have documented that the use of
ICT can improve students’ conceptual understanding, problem solving, and team working
skills. Consequently, most curriculum documents state the importance of ICT and encourage
school teachers to use them. However, teachers need to specifically trained in order to
integrate ICT in their teaching. Based on the passage, the passage most likely discusses….
A. ICT and education in today’s learning development
B. teachers need to be trained in order to integrate ICT in their teaching
C. the advantages of using ICT in the learning process
D. the development of education by using ICT
E. educational growth in the last two decades
The latest round in an ongoing debate over global-warming trends claims that
warming has indeed slowed down this century. An obvious slowing in the rise of global
temperatures was recorded at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This was
referred to as a "hiatus" or a "pause". This hiatus was first observed several years
ago. Climate-change skeptics have used this as evidence that global warming has
stopped permanently. But in June the previous year, a study in science claimed that
the hiatus was just an artifact which disappears when biases in temperature data are
corrected.

Now a prominent group of researchers is countering that claim. They argue in Nature
Climate Change that even after correcting these biases the slowdown was real.
"There is this mismatch between what the climate models are producing and what the
observations are showing," says lead author John Fyfe. "We can't ignore it." Fyfe uses
the term "slowdown" rather than "hiatus". He also stresses that it does not in any way
weaken global-warming theory.

The passage above mainly discusses about….


A. the hiatus observation was first carried out several years ago
B. the reason why global warming is slowing down in this century
C. global warming is a verifiable issue in the space of a decade
D. the contention about global warming and whether it is indeed
slowing this period
E. the view of study in science that the hiatus is an artifact which
vanishes
Indonesian coffee exports rose from 336,840 tonnes (or 5,614,000 60-KG bags) in
crop year 2000/2001 to 656,400 tonnes (10,940,000 bags) in 2012/2013, according to
data collated by the International Coffee Organization. Total production over the same
period increased from 419,220 tonnes to 763,800 tonnes. At present, the principal
destinations for Indonesian coffee are the US, Japan and Western Europe (particularly
Germany), but Indonesia is well placed to capitalize on the fast-rising demand in the
ASEAN region and in China. Based on the passage, the passage mainly
discuss about ...
A. The coffee export has decreased in several years
B. Total production deducted from 419,220 tonnes to 763,800 tonnes
C. Indonesian coffee exports increased from 2000/2001 to 2012/2013
D. Indonesia is in a good site to take advantage of fast-rising demand in ASEAN
E. The US, Japan and Western Europe are the destination for Indonesian coffee
