Read the following passage about Building Understanding Across Nations and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the  following questions from 23 to 30.

In our interconnected world, cultural ambassadors play a vital role in bridging the gaps between different nations and peoples. These dedicated individuals and groups serve as links between cultures, fostering mutual understanding and respect through various activities and programs. Their mission is to showcase their own cultural heritage while learning about and appreciating others, creating pathways for meaningful dialogue and lasting connections across borders.

Cultural ambassadors employ numerous methods to achieve their goals. They organize traditional festivals and art exhibitions that display unique customs, allowing visitors to experience different cultures firsthand. Language exchange programs enable people to communicate more effectively, while cultural workshops teach traditional crafts, music, and dance. These ambassadors also utilize digital platforms to reach wider audiences, sharing stories and traditions through social media and online events that connect people from different corners of the world.

Despite their important work, cultural ambassadors face several challenges in their mission. Stereotypes and prejudices can create barriers to understanding, while language differences sometimes lead to misunderstandings. Limited resources and funding may restrict their activities, and political tensions between nations can complicate their efforts. However, these dedicated individuals persist in their work, believing that personal connections and shared experiences can overcome these obstacles and promote harmony among different communities.

Looking ahead, the role of cultural ambassadors becomes increasingly significant in our global society. Their efforts to build bridges between nations contribute to reducing conflicts and fostering peace. Through their continued dedication to promoting cross-cultural understanding, these ambassadors help create a more inclusive and connected world where differences are celebrated rather than feared. This ongoing process of cultural exchange remains essential for building a future based on mutual respect and cooperation.

The word “ambassadors” in paragraph 1 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _________.

Read the passage carefully. Choose an option (A, B, C or D) that best answers each question from 16 to 22.

1. Like many emergency responders, Nicholas Groom is used to stress at work.  On the one hand, the stress can be helpful. “I find that when attending a serious incident, it helps me to maintain focus on the situation,” Nicholas Groom said. On the other hand, the work can be highly pressurized. “Too much stress can impair your ability to make decisions,” he adds. And Groom is not alone in his complicated relationship with stress.

2. Many people believe that there should be a balanced amount of stress. In other words, not too much stress so you’re not overwhelmed but not too little stress so you don’t feel unmotivated. After all, some anxiety is motivating; think of the adrenaline before a deadline or the excitement before a competition.  Sports fans sometimes even talk about a “gene” in some athletes who seem to play best in the decisive final moments of a match. Furthermore, many psychologists claim that performance in many situations increases with stress up to a point. Of course, any stress can cause harm when it’s prolonged. To take just one example, a long-term high heart rate is linked to cardiovascular diseases. And additional stressors, such as financial pressures or psychiatric issues, clearly affect how beneficially someone can respond to stress.  

3. So is there a way to harness stress to your advantage while being mindful of its detrimental long-term effects? One key factor is to avoid, whenever possible, the point when stress leads to mental and physical collapse. Crystal Wernicke, 30, has always used stress as a motivator. But juggling between parenting, a full-time job, a voluntary role and financial troubles at the same time became too much and eventually led to a two-month period of illness. Another factor is the presence of control. For those who feel powerless over their situation, stress is unlikely to be beneficial. But with some autonomy over stressful tasks, we are better able to convert that pressure into higher performance.

4. When it comes to stress and how it affects your performance, it’s helpful to recognize the variations in personality, type of stress and task that affect the level of pressure you are under, as well as understanding tools you can use to control and harness that stress. Ultimately, it’s not helpful to take a one-sided view, either demonizing or glorifying stress. As James C Quick, a management professor at the University of Texas, sums up: “Stress can be the kiss of death as well as the spice of life.”

Read the following passage about Asia’s culture and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions

[I] Chemicals are present everywhere in our environment, some of which occur naturally, while others are the result of human activities. [II]. They are found in the air, water, and soil, and can have both positive and negative impacts on the ecosystem. Some chemicals, like nutrients, help support life by promoting plant growth [III]. However, others, especially synthetic chemicals such as pesticides, fertilizers, and industrial waste, can be harmful to both the environment and human health. [IV]

The widespread use of pesticides and fertilizers in agriculture has been a major cause of chemical pollution. When these chemicals are used improperly or excessively, they can wash into rivers, lakes, and oceans, leading to water pollution. This runoff can also contribute to the depletion of oxygen in water bodies, a process known as eutrophication. Eutrophication harms aquatic life, disrupting ecosystems and causing the death of fish and other organisms that rely on oxygen.

Toxic chemicals such as heavy metals (e.g., mercury and lead) pose additional threats to the environment and human health. These substances can accumulate in the food chain, starting from plants and animals in contaminated areas and eventually reaching humans. Long-term exposure to these chemicals can lead to serious health issues, including neurological disorders, cancer, and other chronic conditions. Many countries have established regulations to limit the use of harmful chemicals, but enforcement remains a challenge.

Efforts to reduce chemical pollution involve a combination of government regulations, technological innovations, and public awareness. Governments worldwide have introduced stricter rules on the use of hazardous chemicals and encouraged the development of eco-friendly alternatives. These regulations aim to limit the harmful impact of chemicals on the environment, encouraging industries to adopt safer practices. Environmental organizations play a vital role in monitoring chemical pollution, raising awareness, and advocating for cleaner technologies. They work closely with policymakers to ensure effective enforcement of environmental laws. While progress has been made, ongoing efforts are needed to address emerging challenges and ensure a safer and healthier environment for future generations.

The phrase "eutrophication" in paragraph II is CLOSEST in meaning to _______.
