Directions: The short passage below is followed by a question based on its content. Answer the question on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.From the wealth of science we have selected certain parts. And our choice has in no way been influenced by a consideration of the higher interests of humanity. It has simply followed the direction of our natural tendencies. The principles of the greatest convenience and of the least effort, the pleasure procured by speed, change, and comfort, and also the need of escaping from ourselves, are the determining factors in the success of new inventions. But no one has ever asked himself how we would stand the enormous acceleration of the rhythm of life resulting from rapid transportation, telegraph, telephone, modern business methods, machines that write and calculate, and those that do all the housekeeping drudgery of former times. The tendency responsible for the universal adoption of the airplane, the automobile, the cinema, the telephone, the radio, and, in the near future, of television, is as natural as that which, in the night of the ages, led our ancestors to drink alcohol. Steam-heated houses, electric lighting, elevators, biological morals, and chemical adulteration of foodstuffs have been accepted solely because those innovations were agreeable and convenient. But no account whatever has been taken of their probable effect on human beings.What is the theme of the passage?

DIRECTIONS for the question: Read the information given below and answer the question that follows.To open a software lock, you have to type elements in sequence using a keyboard.

Acceptable combinations must also confirm to the following rules:1. The number must be either the second or third element in the combination.2. The fourth and fifth element in the combination must not be the same.3. If the third element is a number, then the fifth must be either B or D.4. If the third element is a letter, then there must be no Fs or Gs in the combination.5. The first element must be a letter closer to the beginning of the alphabet than any other element in the combination.Q. The combination C, Q, 8, P, F can be made acceptable by doing which of the following?
