ICT is the abbreviation of Information and Communication Technology. According to
Perron, et al; 2010, ICTs is electronic tools that can be used to get, copy and save
information. These tools are mostly influenced by internet. Another definition of ICT is as
stated by Ajayi, 2009 is that ICT can be defined as a technological tool as means of collecting
(inputting/gathering), collating (processing/analysing), and conveying
(outputting/transferring) information through technology. Furthermore, this tool is very
essential today, as information can be updated, kept and used as it is needed by using this
tool. Not only for sharing information, but this tool also affects to the way people
communicate today. In the last few years, people can communicate easily by using wire
phone, or the phone is connected by using wire, therefore it cannot be easily brought.
However, nowadays, people can communicate with any people in the world by using this
tool. The thing that happens in a part of a world can be easily seen by other people in another
side of the world at the same time.  
1. What is ICT? And what does it stand for?
ICT is the abbreviation of Information and Communication Technology and ICTs
is electronic tools that can be used to get, copy and save information.
2. Why is ICT considered important for people?
Because ICT can be defined as a technological tool as means of collecting
(inputting/gathering), collating (processing/analysing), and conveying
(outputting/transferring) information through technology.
3. How is today communication different from the one in the past?
Because information can be updated, kept and used as it is needed by using this
tool
4. What do you think will happen if people are not provided with technology?
because we can communicate remotely via today's technology, whereas past
technology the telephone had to be connected by cable and humans will not
progress and develop if they are not equipped with technology

5. What is the main idea of the text above?


ICTs is electronic tools that can be used to get, copy and save information. These
tools are mostly influenced by interne

In the last ten years police have installed speed trap units on many busy roads. These
contain a radar set, a microprocessor and a camera equipped with a flash. The radar sends out
a beam of radio waves at a frequency of 24 gigahertz. This is equivalent to a wavelength of
1,25 cms. If a car is moving toward the radar, the reflected signal will bounce back with a
slightly smaller wavelength. If away from the radar, the waves will reflect with a slightly
longer wavelength. The microprocessor within the unit measures the difference in wavelength
between ongoing and returning signals and calculates the speed of each vehicle. If it is above
the speed pre-set by the police, the camera takes a picture of the vehicle. The information is
stored on a smart card for transfer to the police computer. The owner of the vehicle can then
be traced using the Driver and Vehicle Licencing Centre database.
Some drivers have now got used to these traps. They slow down when they approach
one to ensure that the camera is not triggered. They speed up again as soon as they have
passed. This is known as ‘surfing.’ One way of outwitting such motorists is a new
computerized system. This consists of two units equipped with digital cameras positioned at a
measured distance apart. The first unit records the time each vehicle passes it and identifies
each vehicle by its number plates using optical character recognition software. This
information is relayed to the second unit then calculates the time taken by each vehicle to
travel between the units. The registration numbers of those vehicles exceeding the speed limit
are relayed to police headquarters where a computer matches each vehicle with the DVLC
database. Using mailmerge a standard letter is then printed off addressed to the vehicle
owner.
6. What does the text talk about?
the application of police using current technology
7. What is the function of the installed speed trap units?
slow down when they approach one to ensure that the camera is not triggered.
8. How does the radar work?
The radar sends out a beam of radio waves at a frequency of 24 gigahertz. This is
equivalent to a wavelength of 1,25 CMs. If a car is moving toward the radar, the
reflected signal will bounce back with a slightly smaller wavelength
9. Why do drivers do ‘surfing’? and how do the police overcome this problem?
Because some drivers have now got used to these traps, and police use the new
computerized system. It consists of two units equipped with digital cameras that are
placed at measured distances apart.
10. Do you think speed trap units can be effectively applied in Indonesia? Why?
effective, so that drivers in Indonesia do not accelerate while driving.
11. The word it in sentence The first unit records the time each vehicle passes it refers to
drivers
12. The phrase slow down is opposite in meaning with
speed up (in paragraph 2).
13. The word approach is similar in meaning to
oncoming (in paragraph 2).
14. What is the purpose of the text above?
explains about speed traps and how to deal with riders who trick the speed trap
15. What do you think the message in the letter sent to the owner of the vehicle exceeding
the speed limit?
registration number of riders who violate the speed rules

Good luck
