There seems no question but that the clock dial, which has existed in its present form since the seventeenth century and in earlier forms since ancient times, is on its way out. More and more common are the digital clocks that mark off the hours, minutes, and seconds in ever-changing numbers. This certainly appears to be an advance in technology. You will no longer have to interpret the meaning of “the big hand on the eleven and the little hand on the five.” Your digital clock will tell you at once that it is 4:55. And yet there will be a loss in the conversion of dial to digital, and no one seems to be worrying about it. Actually, when something turns, it can turn in just one of two ways, clockwise or counter-clockwise, and we all know which is which. Clockwise is the normal turning direction of the hands of a clock, and counter-clockwise is the opposite of that. Since we all stare at clocks (dial clocks, that is), we have no trouble following directions or descriptions that include those words. But if dial clocks disappear, so will the meaning of those words for anyone who has never stared at anything but digitals.

76. The author maintains that, when dial clocks go out of use and only digitals are used, ----.
A) the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” will cease to carry any meaning
B) people will continue to use the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” on a regular basis
C) it will be quite confusing for everyone to tell the time right away
D) most people will wonder about the meanings of the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise”
E) it will certainly be a major technological change unprecedented in the past

77. It is pointed out in the passage that the use of the clock dial ----.
A) is no longer practical since one is often confused about the meaning of the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise”
B) was most popular in the seventeenth century but has since lost its importance
C) is still widely used despite the technological progress in the manufacture of digital clocks
D) has improved enormously since the seventeenth century due to advances in technology
E) has a very long history though at present it is becoming less and less popular

78. In the passage, the author admits that digital clocks, compared with dial clocks, ----.
A) have a number of drawbacks which make their use rather restricted
B) can, in the long run, be replaced by technologically new and more efficient clocks
C) are technologically more advanced and tell time very precisely
D) do not seem to have much efficiency and easily break down
E) have ceased to be in widespread use due to some inexplicable technological shortcomings

79. The author asserts that people ----.
A) are not aware of the fact that in antiquity time was completely disregarded
B) do not seem to be concerned about “the loss” that the replacement of dial clocks by digitals will cause
C) can also define their position accurately by using digital clocks
D) today have a growing interest in dial clocks and value them very much
E) have already stopped using the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” to indicate directions

80. As has been pointed out in the passage, the word “clockwise” ----.
A) first came into use in the seventeenth century
B) is used only in conjunction with the word “counter-clockwise”
C) can also be used with reference to a digital clock
D) signifies the direction in which the hands of a dial clock move
E) has no meaning unless it is used with reference to a dial clock

When Mozambique and South Africa ended their internal conflicts in the early 1990s, they enacted widescale amnesties, and in both countries the rule of law quickly improved. In each of them, political leaders opted to move past the violence and injustices of the past and to focus on the tasks of social and political reconstruction. As part of that reconstruction, each country became a multiparty democracy in which the accountability of leaders and other key norms of the rule of law could finally take root. The restoration of public security, meanwhile, allowed the provision of basic services. And though their criminal-justice systems remained woefully underfunded, both were finally able to start providing citizens with basic protections. While the legal, social and political improvements in South Africa between 1994 and 2004 were impressive, in poorer Mozambique, the improvement was smaller but still marked.

81. It is clear from the passage that both South Africa and Mozambique ----.
A) underwent a very radical process of social, political and legal transformation over a decade after the mid-1990s
B) are still extremely obsessed with their political past and have failed to adapt themselves to the norms of democracy
C) are noted for their indifference to the rule of law and have introduced a series of non-democratic measures
D) have not solved their internal conflicts fully although they have made their criminal-justice systems very efficient through radical reforms
E) have resorted to every conceivable means in their efforts to restore public security

82. It is pointed out in the passage that, compared with Mozambique, South Africa has ----.
A) never been genuinely enthusiastic about the rule of law in the country and invariably attempted to undermine it
B) upgraded their system of criminal justice and, thus, completely eliminated violence and injustice in society
C) given priority to the cessation of internal conflicts in the country and the establishment of various political parties
D) made enormous progress in the social and political reconstruction of their country
E) never been held accountable for the violence and injustices they caused in the past

83. The author points out that, along with the institution of a multiparty democracy, ----.
A) both Mozambique and South Africa have focused on their past and begun to bring to justice those who are accountable for the crimes of the past
B) the maintenance of the rule of law in Mozambique and South Africa has failed due to a growing rate of political misconduct
C) one important change in Mozambique and South Africa in the late 1990s was the new political principle that leaders were to be held accountable for their policies
D) violence and injustice in Mozambique have ceased completely while South Africa still struggles with them
E) the question of public security has been of little concern for political leaders since they have focused their efforts on party politics

84. It is emphasized in the passage that, in the post-amnesties period, ----.
A) radical political reforms in Mozambique are the major reason for the impressive improvements in the country’s economic performance
B) Mozambique, which is economically underdeveloped, has experienced some striking political improvements
C) political improvements in South Africa became the model for political improvements in Mozambique
D) Mozambique has excelled South Africa in the improvement of both its economy and political institutions
E) Mozambique’s political leaders were concerned not only with political reforms but also, more importantly, with the economic well-being of the country

85. It is implied in the passage that the provision of basic services in Mozambique and South Africa in the pre-amnesties period was ----.
A) a priority for all the political parties
B) far better than it has been in the post-amnesties period
C) regarded as an important factor in the process of democratization
