The following text is for questions 1 to 4.
Ice, which is water in its frozen, solid state, will form when the water temperature reaches 32?F. In cold weather, ice appears on rivers, lakes, and the ocean. In areas where it is perpetually cold, ice becomes part of the landscape as features such as glaciers, ice caps, and ice sheets.
Glaciers form in locations where snow accumulates faster than it can melt, usually in mountainous areas. Over time the snow becomes compressed and recrystallizes into ice. When the ice reaches a solid mass of a certain thickness it can begin to move, or flow, under its own weight. Most glaciers move very slowly, perhaps only a few inches a year, but under circumstances, they can advance quickly.
An ice cap is a thick layer of ice and snow that has formed a permanent crust over areas of land. Such formations are found primarily in polar regions. Sometimes the term ice cup is used interchangeably with ice sheet, although an ice sheet usually is larger. Ice sheet that cover continents are known as continental glaciers, such as the Antarctic ice sheet.

A financial institution (FI) is an establishment that focuses on dealing with financial transactions, such as investments, loans, and deposits.
Conventionally, financial institutions are composed of organizations, such as banks, trust companies, insurance companies, and investment dealers. People deal with a financial institution on a regular basis. Every transaction from depositing money to taking out loans and exchange currencies must be done through financial institutions.
Financial institutions are regulated highly by the government to protect people finance and to maintain the economy's stability. For example, if a financial institution enters into bankruptcy as a result of controversial practices, this will no doubt cause wide-spread panic as people start to question the safety of their finances. This loss of confidence can inflict further negative externalities upon the economy.

Jawaban: BThe following text is for questions 9 to 12.
Bar codes are becoming common all over the world. They became available in 1974 and since then, several bar codes have been designed.
A bar code is a printed pattern of black and white lines. The pattern contains important information. Each printed bar code consists of a unique pattern of black and white lines that represent numbers from 0 to 9. The first six digits identify the manufacturer and the next five digits identify a certain product. The last digit tells if the number is scanned correctly so it is called 'check digit'. For example, the Campbell Soup Company produces canned foods. The first six digits of all Campbell products are the same. The next five digits are different for each Campbell product, such as chicken soup, tomato soup and so on. As a result, the bar code for each product in a store is unique.
Many kinds of businesses use bar codes. However, a bar code system is especially useful in supermarkets. One reason is that most customers purchase a large number of items. Bar codes make the checkout process fast and easy. Also, supermarkets sell a wide variety of items. Most of these items are sold quickly. Using bar codes allows stores to easily track what has been sold and what needs to be ordered. Using the technology of bar codes makes supermarkets more efficient.
