VI. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Mark Zuckerberg was born in 1984, in New York, into a prosperous,
professional family. He developed an interest in computers at an early age and when
he was twelve, he created a messaging program which he named "Zucknet". His
dentist father used it in his surgery so that his receptionist could inform him of the
arrival of a patient without yelling across the room. Together with his friends, Mark
spent much of his spare time as a boy designing and making computer games just for
fun.
In 2002, Mark enrolled at Harvard University. By his second year at the
institution, he had acquired a reputation on the campus as a developer of software. It
was at that time he invented "Facemash" which compared pictures of female students
and allowed users to vote on which one was the most attractive. The program became
very popular on campus, but was later shut down by the university authorities who
deemed it ‘inappropriate’.
Based on the buzz of "Facemash", three of Mark's fellow students, Divya
Narendra, and twins, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, asked him to work with them
on an idea for a social networking site called "Harvard Connection". This site was
designed to use information from Harvard's student networks to create a dating site
for the university's elite. Mark was initially enthusiastic about the complex project but
boredom soon set in and he backed out of it to work on his own social networking
site. He created a site that allowed users to produce their own profiles, upload photos,
and communicate with other people beyond the confines of the university. He called
the site "Facebook" and he operated from one small college room until June 2004
when he finally abandoned his studies to devote himself fully to Facebook and moved
the company to California.
By the end of 2004, Facebook had one million users and Mark was climbing
high. However, in 2006, the multi-millionaire business mogul faced his first big
hurdle. The creators of Harvard Connection claimed that he had used their idea, and
insisted that he should compensate them for their business losses. Mark maintained
that the ideas were based on two very different types of social networks but, after
lawyers searched his records, incriminating emails revealed that he may have
intentionally stolen the intellectual property of his former partners. Although an initial
settlement of $65 million was reached between the two parties, the legal dispute over
the matter continued well into 2011, after the Harvard Connection creators claimed
they were misled with regards to the value of the Facebook stock.
Since amassing his sizeable fortune, Mark has used his millions to fund a
variety of philanthropic causes. He has put lots of money into the deteriorating
schools system in deprived parts on New York and he actively encourages other
wealthy, young entrepreneurs to follow his example and put back something into
society.
