Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to

indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

The loss of the jobs and persistent unemployment in the industrial countries is due mainly to

changes in technology. It is thought to be misleading to blame job losses on the shift of corporations

from the industrial countries to the Third World.

The present technological developments have been compared to a Third Industrial Revolution.

The first coming in the 19

^th

century, was characterized by the steam engine and the use of coal. In

the 1920s the second emerged with the use of oil and the electrodynamo. The third, the present one,

is driven by computers, biotechnology and information technology.

However, there can be seen weaknesses in the newest of industrial revolutions. The technology

is advancing so fast and productivity is rising so fast that we are left with a big problem. Because of

the loss in jobs, caused largely by this new, technology, there will not be enough people with money

to buy all these products.

Technology has definitely enhanced our standard of living, even our quality of life. But as the

capacity to produce expands and the lack of purchasing power and consequent demand diminish,

there can be overproduction and recession, and what happens to our standard of living?
