Read the Passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
The term Mass Communication occurs when information is disseminated to a relatively large number of people in different places. it should be seen as the same thing with talking face to face with someone else. With mass communication, there is no answer, smile, laugh or lock of surprise. the people who receive the message are as far away from the source of the message as far away as you are from the announcers on the radio or from the newscasters on television, or from the writer of a column in the local newspaper.
There are three identifiable means of errors in mass communication. There is one done through the printed words, books, magazine and newspapers. The other is primarily radio, but also records and tape recordings. Also, it can be done through a combination of sound and pictures as in television, films and the more recently popular video tape.
Together, they are referred to as the mass media.
All media can be used to inform and entertain. However, there are coverts roles played. It may be to educate as in school broadcast. Again, the aim may be to persuade as when the media are used by advertisers or for political broadcasts. The media are often in strong position to influence public opinion because they select the topics to be presented and can stress the importance of one issue over the other.
The mass media have, in recent times, come under acerbic criticism. Many presenters have become not only conscientized but also immensely concerned about the possible effects that science of violence and bad behavior may have on their children. More worrisome are the potential danger of political and commercial propaganda.
The means of mass media can be summarized into:

Bayanin Amsa
The most appropriate option for this group is "monitors". The sentence states that the Ugandan AIDS Commission was set up by President Museveni to deal with the spread of the disease. The word "monitors" means to keep a close watch over something, which is exactly what the Ugandan AIDS Commission was created to do. The Commission's main role is to monitor the spread of HIV and AIDS in Uganda and to implement measures to prevent it from spreading further. The other options, "limits", "anticipates", and "increases", do not make sense in this context. The Ugandan AIDS Commission was not set up to limit or increase the spread of the disease, nor was it created to anticipate the spread of the disease.

Bayanin Amsa
In "Sweet Sixteen," Bolaji Abdullahi notes that stereoscopic people should be corrected of their bad thinking. To explain this in simple terms, being stereoscopic means having a narrow and limited perspective on things, which often leads to making judgments and forming opinions based on preconceived notions or generalizations, rather than on actual knowledge or experience. Therefore, it is important to correct this kind of thinking by providing more information and educating individuals about different perspectives and experiences, as well as challenging their assumptions and biases. This can help them broaden their understanding and become more open-minded and accepting of diversity.

The correct phrase is "either/or". "Either/or" means you have two options, and you must choose one of them. For example, "Do you want to have pizza or burgers for dinner?" Here, you have to choose either pizza or burgers, not both or neither. "Neither/nor" means you have two options, but you reject both of them. For example, "I don't like neither pizza nor burgers." Here, you are rejecting both options, and you do not want either one. "Either/nor" is not a commonly used phrase, so it's best to avoid it.

In the context of the passage, the aircraft has just taken off, which is referred to as "departure."

The best word to complete the sentence would be "didn't come out without challenges" is "However". The word "however" is commonly used to introduce a contrast or a contradiction to the previous statement, which makes it an appropriate choice in this sentence. It indicates that despite the success achieved in legal practice over many years, there were still challenges that had to be faced. The other options could also fit in the sentence grammatically, but they wouldn't convey the intended meaning of a contradiction or contrast between the two parts of the sentence. For instance, "indeed" would be used to emphasize and confirm the truth of the statement made in the first part of the sentence. "But" would also introduce a contrast, but it would suggest a less strong opposition than "however". "In spite of all" would imply that there were challenges, but it wouldn't create the necessary contrast to the first part of the sentence.

More specifically, the sea anemone is formed quite like a flower for which is named, with body like a stem and tentacles like petals in brilliant shades; blue, pink, green and red. Its diameters vary from about six millimeters in some species to more than ninety centimeters in the giant verities of Australia. Like corals, hydras and jelly fish, sea anemones are coelenterates. They can move slowly, but more often they attach the lower part of their cylindrical bodies to rocks, shells or wharf pilings.
The upper and end of the sea anemone has a mouth surrounded by tentacles which the animal uses to capture its food. Stinging cells in the tentacles throw out tiny poison threads that paralyze other small sea animals. The tentacles then drag this prey into the sea anemone's mouth.The food is digested in the large inner body cavity. When disturbed, a sea anemone retracts its lump on a rock. Anemones may reproduce by forming eggs. dividing in half or developing buds that grow and break off as independent animals.

The word "however" is used to show a contrast or contradiction to what came before, in this case, the success that the person achieved. Therefore, the complete sentence would read, "His many years of success in legal practice didn't come out without challenges, however."

Vacancies in the company will be notified by .....
Bayanin Amsa
The word that best completes the sentence is "advertisement." The word "advertisement" is the most appropriate option in the context of notifying vacancies in the company to the public. It refers to a paid promotion or notice in a medium such as newspapers, websites, or social media. Companies typically use advertisements to attract the attention of job seekers and notify them of job openings. The other options provided could also be used in some contexts, but they do not specifically convey the idea of job vacancies. For instance, "bulletin" is a general term for a brief announcement or report of recent events, while "publication" refers to a printed or online material that contains articles, stories, or other content. "Publicity" typically refers to the act of promoting or advertising something to the public, without necessarily indicating that there are job vacancies available.
