The great wave of international terrorism that first reached a climax in 1972 showed no signs of
abating in 1975. Strictly speaking, the phenomenon was not new; what was new was its rapid
growth in the 1970s, made possible by increasingly sophisticated technology. Some of this new
technology consists of specialized equipment, such as miniaturized or remote-control
detonating devices, hand-held rocket launchers, and the like, which make terrorism more lethal,
more effective, and less risky for the terrorist. But even improvements in generally available
technology are important. For example, self-dialling international telephone communications
and jet travel facilitate conspiracies across national boundaries and the perpetration of political
crimes by nationals of country in another. The growth of television has contributed to the easy
dissemination of terrorist techniques, such as hijacking of aircraft and the kidnapping of
diplomats or businessmen for ransom.
7. It is argued that.....
A. governments have not taken adequate measures to protect diplomats and businessmen.
B. owing to technological innovations terrorism has been on the decline since the early 1970.
C. among the methods resorted to by terrorists, kidnapping and hijacking are the most common.
