Read the passage and circle the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the best answer to each of the following
questions.
With the introduction of technology, almost every aspect of our society has undergone a quick transformation,
and the education industry is not an exception. In addition, the Internet has increasingly developed and played
a significant role in education. By providing teachers and students with a wide range of new tools to work
with, future educational technology will change learning significantly.
Due to the use of Internet-connected devices at home and in school, more and more students find tablets highly
convenient to learn. Tablets are beneficial to students in some ways. First of all, a tablet is a versatile tool for
students to play videos, process texts and even play educational games. Second, tablets are small in size and
can be easily carried from place to place, so students can utilize them wherever they want. Last but not least,
for disabled students, these hi-tech gadgets can enable them to learn better. For instance, tablets equipped with
modified keyboard with larger buttons that allow them to control the gadgets with their lips or feet, and other
special features are available as assistive technology devices for disabled students.
On the other hand, it is thought that tablets will revolutionize the way students learn in the future. It would be
wise for the future generation educators to think about how to integrate tablets into their curricula – for
assigning homework, sharing multimedia or any other variety of uses.

of the Internet and other technological advances in education, teaching and learning have become better than
