Those students who completed their placements in child protection told us about the great opportunity they have had to apply theory to practice: the many chances of learning new skills and trying new skills and trying new tasks; the sound knowledge available through training; and how valuable becoming familiar with different welfare services was to their future career.

Unit 4
1) We are living in the age of a telecommunications revolution. In order to keep from getting left behind, many developing countries are making an intensive effort
to
strengthen
their
telecommunications
infrastructure. This will help them catch up with the
developed countries. It was, after all, advanced telecommunications that gave some countries an economic advantage over others during the 20th century. There is one place that developing nations are looking to improve upon. That is enabling their citizens and businesses to get access to the Web. They are installing advanced optical fibers. These fibers, a millimeter in diameter, can bring the information superhighway to their door.

One Vietnamese leader said, \is understandable that people want to tackle their immediate problems first. Still, our entire future is at stake. People don't always understand the breadth of the problem, though.\He continued, \are problems with using the antique communications equipment. And if we continue to use such old equipment, the gap between us and the developed world will continue to
widen. Sacrifices have to be made now so that our children will have a country with opportunities equal to those they see in the developed world.\where they can cruise alongside Americans and Western Europeans on the information superhighway.

1) Have you ever experienced living alone by yourself?
2) Sunlight disappears, awakening me to the fact that I am alone. I am a(n) solitary observer on this isolated pond in the forest. Here I sit alone as the last light of day fades away. A lone wolf in the distance cries out. Then darkness creeps in around me. I return to my small hut to put the kettle on the stove and sit in solitude with a hot cup of tea until I want to sleep.
