PRACTICE TASK 2 Directions: Transform the following texts into a non-linear text. Make sure to use the most appropriate visual illustration. Draw your illustration in your notebook. 1. Almost all Koreans live in cities, which occupy only a small portion of the nation's total area. The country divides its land by use -- urban areas, managed areas, natural preserves, and farms and forests in order to carry out its planning initiatives of the categories, urban areas take up 16.7 percent of the country, while farms and forests occupy 46.5 percent, followed by 25.6 percent for managed areas and 11.2 percent for preserves. 2. South Korea and North Korea took dramatically different paths following the end of fighting in the Korean War in 1953. When it comes to their economies and living standards, they could hardly be more different. The two Koreas are separated by the demilitarized zone, a four-kilometer wide strip running along the 38th parallel which splits the Korean peninsula roughly in half. To the south of the DMZ, South Korea operates one of the world's most advanced economies, while to the north its neighbor is a military dictatorship that keeps a tight fist on the economy and has often struggled to provide enough food to its people. North Korea's economy is isolated and tightly controlled. It is generally unable to meet the basic needs of its people. Economists find it difficult to analyze the North Korean economy because data is non-existent, unreliable, or outdated. South Korea's economy is one of the world's most advanced and productive, ranking 12th globally in terms of annual output. South Korea's economic growth depends heavily on exports, and the nation leads the world in shipments of semiconductors and memory chips.
