Read the Passage and answer the questions
Conservation technology is a growing field, and right up in the forefront are drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, which are either operated by a remote controller or programmed to fly unaided. Drones have had a long history of use in the military and by large tech companies in mapping roadways, and their applications in conservation and ecology are growing.
Drones have various uses in wildlife conservation and monitoring, especially given the smaller sizes and more-affordable costs associated with this technology in modern times. Examples include using drones for elephant population monitoring and in measuring forest biodiversity. They are also widely used in monitoring illegal activities such as poaching or deforestation. Kaziranga National Park was the first protected area in India to utilize drones in targeting rhino-poachers.
UAVs are a so used to track wildfires and their spread, playing a role in disaster mitigation. Recent applications include the use of drones in pest management, where pesticides are loaded into drones for spraying large swaths of cropland, as seen during the locust swarm.
Drones can help counter issues related to safety of manned aerial surveys since there is no pilot involved and they can be flown into remote locations which might otherwise be inaccessibile. In the event of a crash scenario, their smaller sizes are likely to cause less damage which means ground staff who operate them do not face the risk of injury.
This passage is mainly about using drones for __________.

Although nature must supply the initial force of desire, nature is not, in the civilised man, the spasmodic, fragmentary, and yet violent set of impulses that is in the savage. Each impulse has its constitutional ministry of thought and knowledge and reflection, through which possible conflicts of impulses are foreseen, and temporary impulses are controlled by the unifying impulse which may be called wisdom. In this way education destroys the crudity of instinct, and increases through know edge the wealth and variety of the individual's contacts with the outside world, making him no longer an isolated fighting unit, but a citizen of the universe, embracing distant countries, remote regions of space, and vast stretches of past and future within the circle of his interests. It is th is simultaneous softening in the insistence of desire and enlargement of its scope that is the chief moral end of education.

Theorists adopting psychodynamic approach hold that inner conflicts are crucial for understanding human behaviour, including aggression. Sigmund Freud, for example, believed that aggressive impulses are inevitable reactions to the frustrations of daily life . Children normally desire to vent aggressive impulses on other people, including their parents, because even the most attentive parents cannot gratify all of their demands immediately. Yet children, also fearing their parents' punishment and loss of potential love, come to repress most aggressive impulses. The Freudian perspective, in a sense, sees us as 'steam engines'. By holding in rather than venting 'steam', we set the stage for future explosions. Pent up aggressive impulses demand outlets. They may be expressed towards parents in indirect ways such as destroying furniture, or they may be expressed toward strangers later in life.
