Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
As humans, we spend a lot of time thinking about the future. We might think about this on an individual level, and wonder what will happen to us and our families, or we might consider the fate of the human race as a whole. In the last thirty years, there has been a revolution occurring under our noses that will influence the future to a huge extent. We have embraced the recent technological advances that have brought us the Internet, laptops, smartphones and many other things that we now rely on for our modern lives, but where are these advances taking us?
The amount of data collected by all our fancy new electronic devices is huge. So huge that it is inconceivable to most. This data is not just hidden away in a supercomputer somewhere unknown, but it could be used too. There are people who are becoming increasingly concerned that this data could be used against us, and that too not just in the case of a computer hack. Advertising companies can also pay for access to our data and use this to target their advertising campaigns.
If you spend time online looking at pictures of nice cars, or jewellery, or even ancient stone carvings, advertisers can alter what you see so that they can try to sell you products related to what they know you like. You may think this is marvellous and something that will help you in life, making your searches more fruitful and the decisions you make, easier. You maybe right. However, they can also ensure you spend more on things, as they know you will buy them whatever the price. This is something we need to monitor.
The power of this data is not limited to targeted advertising and our ability to create data is increasing. In fact, we seem to really enjoy creating data. At the moment, there is increasing popularity of devices that monitor us and our physical activity and health levels. These are worn like watches and can help us keep fit by giving us prompts to move or increase our exercise levels.
It might be the last days of the fitness instructors! The devices are connected to the Internet and help us monitor our health over time, creating a lot of data. In some cases, they can help us lose weight and avoid medical conditions in the future. As such, these devices have the potential to save lives. However, we must remain vigilant and make sure the data collected is not taken advantage of and not used to our detriment.

What does the author think is marvellous?

ATargeted advertising
BHow technology can help our daily life
CGetting help in decision making
DAll of these

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
A company in Sweden has started using driver less electric trucks on a public road.
The project is testing ideas that could bring important changes in transportation. The trucks are called 'T-Pods'. They are shocking to look at because they don't have windows. In fact, they don't even have a place for people to sit inside them. Not even an emergency driver.
What the T-Pod does have is lots of cameras and sensors and a complicated computer system, so that the truck can drive itself. The T-Pod can constantly and quickly exchange information with a control center. Most of the time T-Pods will drive themselves. But when the trucks are in a difficult situation, a real person will be able to take over and drive until the problem is solved.
The small size allows a T-Pod to travel farther and charge faster. T-Pods can go for about 124 miles on a single charge. The developer of the truck says the driver less electric truck costs about 60% less to run than a normal diesel truck with a driver. And it doesn't pollute.
Though the T-Pods can drive at speeds as high as 60 miles per hour, Sweden is only granting the developer a speed limit of 3 miles per hour. That's about as fast as a person walking at normal speed.
The company wants to have 200 trucks on the road by 2020.

What is different about the new truck?

AIt is very fast.
BIt has no driver.
CIt is made in Norway.
DIt is the smallest truck.
