Explanation:

The elderly Carl knew that he was an anachronism among the young programmers working in his office. Each time he struggled to send a simple e-mail message, he lamented the death of the typewriter-and-telephone era in which he had spent most of his career. Bitter that the end of his own usefulness approached, Carl often denigrated the young programmers for having no concept of how to use their own brains -- not calculators -- to solve equations or analyze data. Technology had become the programmers' nemesis, he felt, and had turned him into a dinosaur. Sometimes the young manager and his lackeys mused at Carl's outdated experience with punch cards and mainframes, and it fueled Carl's resentment. He couldn't wait to retire.

No one was looking forward to tommy's fifth birthday. on that day, he would be removed from the family to enter communal living.
mario62 [17]

I would say the bet answer would be option D "Five-year-olds will be evaluated." This would set the stories setting as a dystopia because no five year old would be evaluated at such a young age and given a job. Tommy was also worried that his creativity, and intelligence would go unnoticed and he would be placed as a coal processor and hoped he would become a scientist or a programmer. Also, remember that a dystopia is a made up world of injustice and suffering.

Hope this helps.

The factor of agricultural sectors that allow each sector to perform tasks with maximum efficiency is _____. A. specialization B
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

A). Specialization

Explanation:

Specialization is defined as 'the act of focusing upon a particular skill, product, or field' and this is the factor associated with the agricultural sector that allows each of the sectors to yield maximum efficiency while performing the tasks. This process helps in centralizing the resources(the process of integration of specialized production)  like land, capital, labor on the production of a selected variety of goods. Thus, each sector is able to concentrate upon the new techniques or methods to ensure its maximum efficiency without any change and hence, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
