a) terrorists can possibly replace technologically complicated atomic explosions with less complex, deliberate atomic pollution. b) terrorists cannot pose a threat to the U.K. since their lack of long-range delivery systems
limits the utility of weapons of mass destruction.
c) an unmoving target of the size of a warehouse would satisfy terrorists if they could destroy it
successfully.
d) among the various reasons for the first option not to materialise is the governmental
enforcement of measures against the sale of destructive materials to terrorist.
15. The first option mentioned is nearly impossible due to the fact that.....................

Almost totally devoid of natural resources of commercial value, Israel in its early years focused
on agricultural production. Chemical manufacturing, diamond cutting and polishing, and
developing high technology products with commercial and military applications have surpassed
agriculture as the most important areas of Israel's modern economy. One out of four Israeli
workers today is employed directly or indirectly by the arms industry. Even the Kibbutz, the
socialist agricultural co-operatives which were the most prominent expression of the Jews'
"Return to the land," now earn more of their income through manufacturing than agricultural
production.
16. The most appropriate conclusion to be drawn from the passage is that.....................
a) If Israel had enough natural resources for commercial production, it would not concentrate
on agriculture now.
b) Israel has developed commercially as well as agriculturally and politically.
c) Israel's recent concentration on the manufacturing of commercial products has led to better
food production methods.
