（CEB|SHL Talent Measurement） The use of the Internet by govenmments, businesses, and individuals has grown rapidly within the past few years, especially since the creation of the World Wide Web. The pace of development and expansion shows no signs of abating, with new ways rapidly opening up for organisations to conduct their business. A questionnaire that was intended to be easy to complete was devised, and all national representatives of G7 Government On-Line and ICA countries were invited to respond. The questions and responses were expected primarily from a national or federal government perspective, although there was ample scope to draw upon local government initiatives where representatives considered these important to the national picture. The study was intended to be rapid in execution and delivered in a timely mahher. Following an initial meeting, the questionnaire was developed jointly in Bonn (Germany) and Norwich (UK), making extensive use of both email and video conferencing for effective collaboration. The questionnaire was issued via e-mail and was also published on the World Wide Web.ReSponses were obtained over a period of two to three months. The results were then synthesised, and the report produced between 23 and 25 September, 1997. What is the main point of the above paragraphs?

（CEB|SHL Talent Measurement） Voting is an integral part of the democratic political system. Young voters in particular are highly influential during elections. Their combined votes can make a significant impact on the overall result of an election. Historically, elections have been won or lost based on whether young voters did or did not support the candidate. For instance, during the 1992 U.S. presidential election, approximately 50 percent of the voters under 30 years of age voted. Half of the total votes in this age group went towards the Democratic Party candidate, Bill Clinton. Of the remaining votes from the voters under thirty, 30 percent voted for George Bush (the elder) of the Republican Party, and 20 percent voted for Ross Perot of the independent Party. This 20 percent margin in Clinton's favour could have been the reason Clinton was elected President of the United States in 1992. Young voters have also been strong supporters of the independent parties as well. For example, support for Ross Perot from this age group was high even though his overall rating was only 5 percent. The primary reason that voters of any age get involved in politics and elections is one common factor--money. For example, the political issues that are important to voters under 30 include the minimum wage, student loans and grants, and tax cuts. Secondary issues that get young voters' attention include AIDS research, tobacco, and contraception. Overall, presidential candidates should be sensitive to the needs of our younger voters since their opinions can be influential to the bottom line of an election. According to the text above, which one issues captures attention of young voters?

（CEB|SHL Talent Measurement） Today FBI Director Louis J. Freeh inaugurated the full operation of the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS), a new advanced technology system that will provide major enhancements in the fight against crime. IAFIS provides Federal, state, and local criminal justice agencies the ability to electronically transmit fingerprint information, vastly improving response time. In the past, criminal justice agencies had to post paper fingerprint cards to the FBI for-processing. After the cards were received, a semi-automated system was used to classify the fingerprints and compare them against the fingerprint cards in the FBI's repository. Because the FBI fingerprint file contains more than 34 million cards--a figure comparable to 18 stacks as tall as the Empire State Building in New York City--the identification process sometimes took weeks to complete. IAFIS will compare the submitted images with its huge database of fingerprints and will respond within two hours. The response will include a complete criminal history of the person, if one exists. Even if the per fingerprinted provides 9identification, IAFIS will make a positive identification by matching fingerprints. What is this main point of the above article?

（CEB|SHL Talent Measurement） The SR-71 is a semi-retired U.S. Air Force reconnaissance plane. This sub-orbital jet was used by the United States predominantly as a spy plane in the decades before satellites were used to perform the same function. The SR-71 was first flown in 1964 for stealth and to avoid radar detection however, it was capable of flying so high and so fast that it was generally undetectable from the ground. It also had no capacity for combat because any changes in its speed or shape would undermine its ability to be “invisible." As a result, some described it as a "flying engine." One pilot reported that the plane was fired at over 1,100 times during its active tenure, yet was never hit. Also known in the United States as the "Blackbird" and in Japan the SR-71 was able to fly at speeds up to 2,200 miles per hour, equivalent to more than three times the speed of sound. A camera loaded with high-speed film was mounted in the belly of the and took pictures from high altitudes to provide the U.S. military with information about the activities of its adversaries during the Cold War. The cameras were so sophisticated that they could photograph a golf ball from 80,000 feet. The total number of Blackbirds ranged from 30 to 40 before its eventual retirement. A few were reactivated by NASA in 1996 for research, while some now are used by the U.S. Air Force for display at air shows and in museum such as the Smithsonian Institution. Referring to the above, in what year did the United States begin flying the SR-71?
