which five business leaders talked about their predictions for high-tech
developments in the 21st century. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each
person (61 to 65) to one of the statements ( A to G) given below. Mark your
answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.{{/I}} Caroline
Hartman: Thanks for the terrific article on U2's Bono
and his efforts to save Africa from financial ruin. He's not a saint. He is a
hard-working, real man, using his gifts to inspire us in song and make a
difference in the world. Some issues are so serious that most of us don't even
try to fix them. Bono can't save the world by himself, but like others who have
shown the way, such as Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mohandas Gandhi, he is
proving that one man can make a difference. Molly
Leuschel: Bono may be smarter, better informed and
more committed than other stars, but Africa's problems are larger than his
ambition. After living in Africa nearly six years, I returned to the U.S. with
more questions than answers. Debt relief is a noble idea, but most foreign aid
does little to enrich the life of the average African. Amanda Adichie: I am a 24-year-old Nigerian
and have often viewed stars "concern" for Africa with resentment. My reaction to
Bono was different: I was impressed. He is right in recommending not only debt
relief but the lowering of trade restrictions on African countries. What Africa
needs is not gifts of fish but fair access to the fishing pond. Malini Ranganathan: Your story on the smartest
superstar on the planet was brilliant. I felt like I was right there with him,
there to nod my head in approval and to believe in the potential of his
African-debt-relief campaign, there to appreciate the peculiar, stubborn, witty
and human sides to a guy who seems too famous to be real. Hats off to you for
capturing these features so aptly and for making Bono's personality so real, his
cause so true. Lynne Pereira:
I loved your article on Bono, but why the annoying wording on your cover: "Don't
laugh — the planet's biggest rock star is on a mission to make a difference"?
Who would want to laugh? Bono has proved that he's willing and able to do what
plenty of world leaders can't or won't do: put his money where his mouth is and
make a difference. Statements
[A] Competition on an equal footing is vital to Africa. [B]
Bono should save himself from himself. [C] One man's power,
though limited, is significant. [D] Africa's problems are
insolvable. [E] You have presented a real image of
Bono. [F] Africa is faced with other issues besides
debts. [G] Bono's cause is a serious business.
