 VOCABULARY SECTION                       (10 points) Read the text below and choose the correct word per each space.    MY FIRST WEEK WITH THE IPHONE Last Wednesday, my life changed forever. I got an iPhone. I consider it the greatest thing to happen to blind people for a very long time, possibly  ever. I changed my life in 24 hours. I went to the store with my mom. We asked the salesman about VoiceOver, a program that reads the text on the screen as you touch it. He (6)_______ about it and how to activate it, but he didn’t know how to use it. “Can he get text messages on this?” my mom asked. “”Well, yes, but it (7)_______ the message, “the salesman said. Mom’s hopes sunk, but mine didn’t. Well, let’s see, try it.” I suggested. She pulled (8)_______ her phone and sent me a text message. Within seconds, my phone alerted (9)_______, and said her name. I simply swiped my finger and it read her message. Hi Austin. She almost cried. The other night I downloaded an app that identifies colors. It uses the phone’s camera and (10)________the names of colors. Some of them have very surreal names, such as Atomic Orange, Cosmic Hippie Green, Opium and Black – White. I have (11)_______ experienced this before in my life. I can see (12)_______ light and color, but just in blurs, and objects don’t really have a color, just light sources. The next day, I went outside. I looked at the sky. I heard colors such as “Horizon”, “Outer Space” and (13)_______ shades of blue of gray. I used colors cues to find my pumpkin plants, by (14)_______ for the green among the brown and stone. I spent ten minutes looking at my pumpkin plants, with their leaves of green and lemon – ginger. I then roamed my yard and (15)_______ a blue flower. I then found the brown shed and returned to the gray house. My mind felt brown. I watched the sun set, listening to the colors change as the sky darkened. The next night, I had a conversation with mom about how the sky looked bluer tonight. Since I can see some light and color, I think hearing the color names helps my perception and enhances my visual experience. Amazing!

IV READING SECTION READING SECTION                       (5 points) Read two articles from two different sources on global trends. If it is true, mark T on the space provided.  If it is false, mark F on the space provided. If there is no information, mark NI on the space provided.   1) THE ENDLESS CITY Urban drift is now “unstoppable”, the director of UN-Habitat, Anna Tibaijuka, states sadly: “The rural population is decreasing fast. At the moment, just over half the world lives in cities. By 2050 that figure will rise to 70%.” We are going to see the world’s cities merge to form an increasing number of urban “mega-regions”. Some of them will stretch for hundreds of kilometers and across more than one country. This process is already happening in China. The largest of these megaregions – The Hong Kong-Shenhzen-Guanzhou region – will be home to about 120 million people by 2030. It will certainly create more jobs, but the gap between rich and poor will grow as people move in from the rural areas in search of work. “If these new cities are going to be successful, they will need to know how to reduce these inequalities,” said the report’s co-author Eduardo Moreno.   2) MOBILE DEVICES TAKE OVER THE WORLD In developing nations, 57% of people now have mobile phone access and this number is going to increase rapidly. While internet use is also increasing, UN reports say it won’t go up so quickly because of higher costs. There are currently 5 billion global mobile phone subscriptions, compared with about 1 billion in 2002. It will gradually turn into “the most prolific and desirable consumer device of the planet.” The difference is that in Africa, mobile devices will be used in all aspects of life, not just to chat with friends. Mobile devices will be used, for example, for the movement of money, for finding jobs and even to follow university courses.

The mobile phone will be more popular in Africa than in the USA T F NI

The number of urban mega-regions is increasing.  T https://evirtual.espe.edu.ec/evaluaciones.cgi?wAccion=verevaluacion&wid_evaluacion=7918986&id_curso=16434
