Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
1. Project-based learning (PBL) is an innovative and highly effective teaching method that enables students to explore real-world questions while gaining knowledge and enhancing their skills. At Radcliffe Group of Schools, we have adopted PBL, which has produced exceptional results. We believe that education should extend beyond simply memorizing facts from textbooks. Instead, it should focus on helping students discover new possibilities, unlock their potential, and prepare them for future success. PBL plays a crucial role in achieving this vision, equipping students with the skills necessary for both academic and professional success.
2. PBL is not just useful for learning content; it also helps students develop important life skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and teamwork. A significant advantage of PBL is its ability to encourage students to be active participants in their learning. Rather than passively absorbing information, students are motivated to take an active role, exploring topics in greater depth and expanding their boundaries.
3. Moreover, PBL promotes the development of meta-cognitive skills, enabling students to reflect on their thinking processes and approach problems strategically. It also helps build confidence and a sense of ownership over their education. Students engaged in PBL often feel more empowered and invested in their work, better preparing them for future academic and career challenges. Additionally, PBL offers a more engaging and dynamic learning experience than traditional methods, allowing students the freedom to explore their creativity.
4. At Radcliffe Group of Schools, we support PBL through initiatives like "No Bag Day," where students focus on project-based tasks without carrying backpacks, and "Student-Led Conferences," where students present their work and skills to their parents. These initiatives foster continuous learning and help build vital skills for students' future growth.
Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A.PBL is enhanced to motivate students to engage and play a more active part in their education.
B.A major strength of PBL lies in its ability to promote student involvement in their own education.
C.The benefits of PBL are highlighted by its potential to actively involve pupils in their own learning.
D.Promotion of student participation in the learning process is one of PBL's primary objectives.

Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
1. [I] Waste management is a major issue for cities worldwide, and European cities are leading the way with innovative solutions. [II] One such solution is Waste-to-Energy (WtE), which has become increasingly popular. [III] It reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills while generating clean energy, supporting sustainability, and promoting a circular economy. [IV]
2. The European Union (EU) has set an ambitious goal to reduce landfill use to less than 10% of municipal waste by 2035. To meet this target, solutions like WtE are encouraged. Landfilling is considered the least desirable option in the EU's waste management hierarchy. By diverting waste to WtE, pollution in soil and groundwater is reduced, and harmful emissions in the air and water are minimized. EU regulations ensure that WtE plants operate under strict emission limits, protecting public health and the environment.
3. In addition to reducing waste sent to landfills, WtE also helps lower greenhouse gas emissions by replacing fossil fuels. It also reduces emissions from the burning process by recycling the by-products of combustion. WtE technologies, when equipped with proper pollution control systems, can contribute to clean energy production and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Many European WtE plants are also exploring Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies to further reduce their carbon footprint.
4. European cities are adopting the principles of the circular economy, which emphasizes reusing, recycling, and recovering resources. WtE fits into this model by converting waste into valuable resources. The heat generated during incineration can be used for district heating, and materials like metals and minerals recovered from waste can be reused in production, reducing the strain on natural resources.
5. There are over 500 WtE plants operating in major European cities like Paris, Vienna, Copenhagen, and Barcelona. These plants contribute to sustainable urban development, turning waste into clean energy. As technology improves, WtE will play an even more significant role in Europe's sustainable future.
Which of the following best summarises paragraph 4?
A.As part of their commitment to the circular economy, European cities use WtE to generate valuable resources such as energy and facilities.
B.WtE is used in European cities as part of the circular economy to convert waste into useful resources like reusable materials and heat.
C.Within their circular economy, European cities use WtE to reduce energy dependence on other nations and produce recyclable materials.
D.A lot of European urban areas use WtE as part of their circular economy initiatives to create renewable value and reduce waste.
