Soru 8 : Before the Polish born French-American mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot made his mark on the world, scientists liked to forget about the imperfections and irregularities of nature. The study of perfect squares, triangles and planes had dominated their field for over 2,000 years, since the Greek geometer Euclid wrote maths' oldest treatise 'Elements' and provided us with the tools to measure these flawlessly smooth shapes. Early question about how to measure the real shape of a tree, a coastline or anything with a rough edge could not be tackled by Euclidean geometry and had therefore been ignored. But Mandelbrot changed all this when he invented fractal geometry, which enables us to measure roughness. 'My whole career has been one long, ardent pursuit of the concept of roughness', he says. 'The roughness of clusters in the physics of disorder, of turbulent flows, of exotic noises, of chaotic dynamical systems, of the distribution of galaxies, of coastlines, of stock price charts and of mathematical constructions.'

Soru 25 : An Australian historian proposed that the key to understanding Australia was 'the tyranny of distance'. Australians were far removed from their British ancestors, far from the centres of power in Europe and North America and far from each other -with the major cities separated by distances of some 800 km. Time, however, has broken down that sense of distance. Australians today do not see London or New York as the centre of the world. The proximity to Asian economies like China is an economic strength. Transportation and communications links have taken away the sense of remoteness felt by past generations. However, the tech nolo gy th at tru ly p romi ses to e nd t he tyra nny of distance is high-speed broadband, whose benefits we are still only beginning to understand though it has already been a decade since the frenzied dotcom era. That is why the Australian government is rolling out the world's most ambitious broadband project-a national network that will bring fibre to homes in more than 1,000 cities and towns covering 93% of residences. Next generation wireless and satellite technologies will cover the other 7%. The network will operate at lightning speeds and involve an estimated investment of $40 billion through an independent state-owned enterprise in partnership with the private sector.

Soru 39 : The study of how humans acquire language begins with the study of child language acquisition. Principally, two hypotheses have been put forth. The first, deriving from the structuralist school of linguistics, holds that children learn language through imitation and positive-negative reinforcement. This is known as the behaviourist approach. The second, or innateness hypothesis, proposes that the ability to acquire language is a biologically innate capacity. This is known as the cognitive approach. Furthermore, innate language learning ability is linked to physiological maturation and may atrophy around the time of puberty. The innateness hypothesis derives from the generative/transformational school of linguistics. Such descriptions of language acquisition are further tested in exploring how adults acquire language. It appears that most adults learn language through memorization and positive-negative reinforcement: a manifestation of the behaviourist model. Whether this is a result of the post-pubescent decay of the innate ability described above or a result of other psychological and cultural factors is a question of great interest to the psycholinguist.

Soru 44 : Central heating, available in the US since the early 19th century, became popular only after the Civil War. Typically, coal-burning furnaces fuelled the early systems. The furnaces warped and cracked, causing gases to escape, and had to be stoked frequently. It took years and countless small improvements, but by the mid-1920s the systems had become reliable and, with the emergence of oil-fired furnaces, more convenient. Natural gas, which became widely available with the building of a pipeline infrastructure after World War II, had developed into the leading fuel by 1960. Its acceptance resulted in part from its versatility - unlike oil, it can power appliances such as clothes washers and dryers, ovens, ranges and outdoor grills. Because it comes primarily from US and Canadian fields, natural gas is also less vulnerable than oil is, to war and embargo. Oil remains the predominant fuel in a few areas, such as New England, where natural gas pipelines have not yet thoroughly penetrated. Oil users in many regions have the advantage of being able to buy a season's supply in advance at favourable rates and, in contrast to most gas users, can easily change their supplier.
