Read the passage and then choose the best answer for the following questions. More and more, technology is moving to the cloud. It's not just a fad - the shift away from traditional software models to software as a service, or Saas, has steadily gained momentum over the last 10 years. Looking ahead, the next decade of cloud computing promises even more ways to collaborate from anywhere, using mobile devices. So what is cloud computing? Essentially, cloud computing is a kind of outsourcing of software, data storage, and processing. Users access applications and files by logging in from any device that has an internet connection. Information and programs are hosted by outside parties and reside on a global network of secure data centres instead of on the user's hard drive. This frees up processing power, facilitates sharing and collaboration, and allows secure mobile access regardless of where the user is or what device is being used. Cloud computing is a more efficient way of delivering computing resources. With cloud computing, software and service environments are subscription-based-users pay a monthly fee instead of buying licenses. Software and platforms are managed by the providers and are updated continuously for maximum performance and security. 1. The word "efficient" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to____________. A. sensitive. B. competitive. C. alternative. D. productive. 2. According to paragraph 3, software and platforms have the maximum performance and security because____________. A. They don't work as computing resources. B. They require no subscription. C. They are updated continuously. D. They are centralized. 3. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned as a good thing cloud computing can do? A. Information and programs are on the user's hard. B. Freeing up processing power. C. Facilitating sharing and collaboration. D. Allowing secure mobile access. 4. What could be the best title for the passage? A. The Shift Away from Traditional Software. B. What is Cloud Computing. C. The Kind of Outsourcing of Software. D. How are Software and Platforms Managed. 5. The word "that" in paragraph 2 refers to________. A. device. B. internet connection. C. information and programs.

Families in the 21st century come in all shapes and sizes: traditional, single parent, blended (more than one family together in the same house), and gay and lesbian parents - just to name a few. No matter the "type" of family you have, there are going to be highs and lows - good times and bad. Many times, however, families become blocked in their relationships by hurt, anger, mistrust, and confusion. These emotions are natural and normal, and few families do not have at least a few experiences with them. The worst time for most families, is during a divorce. By making a few simple changes in the way we look at the world and deal with other people, it is possible to create happier, more stable relationships. Families need to be units of mutual caring and support; they can be sources of lifelong strength for all individuals. It is never too late to begin the process of improving family relationships – even if they are already of good quality - by developing some simple skills. Whereas in other situations you can step back and assess the relationship, it is often hard to do this with your family. Your family may be a constant presence in your life, so when an argument or issue arises, it may seem impossible to handle. Remember that communication is key to resolving conflict. While it may seem that your siblings are constantly present to annoy you or boss you around, they are also there to communicate. Use your family's presence to your advantage – communicate with each other, develop ways to value boundaries, and build trust and respect. 98. The passage mainly discusses ____. A. families in the 21st century B. how to keep and improve family relationships C. what changes to make for a happier family D. family problems and solutions in the 21st century 99. Which of the following is not listed as something that blocks family relationships? A. mistrust B. divorce C. bankruptcy D. confusion 100. The word "them" in the passage refers to ____.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. All families experience both good and bad times. B. Family care and support make individuals strong. C. Good family relationships need no improvements. D. Normally, it is hard to assess family relationships. 103. The word "handle" in the passage almost means ____. A. hold B. share C. control D. solve 104. According to the passage, which of the following is the best way to deal with family problems? A.
