Mongolia is in the midst of its demographic transitions and has pursued model of economic growth that has been more focused on import-substitution.

Population growth reached a peak in the late 1960s and has started to decline since then, mainly because of sharp decrease in fertilityratesfrom7.2 in 1975to 2.8 in 1995.

In Caught Inside, Duane, introduces a character names Apollo.…

Texts and images are two efficient ways of being sent. However, no one can deny the fact that, these days, we seem to pay more attention to images than texts due to a variety of reasons such as occasions and meaning. According to The Media Education Lab website of the University of Rhode Island (2012) mention that the difference between text and image is the level of representation, which People process text as narration while image as reality.
