Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer
to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
We are often told to smile every day and smile as much as we can, and this advice seems to be an
extremely good one, since research has shown that whether your smile is genuine or not, it can act on your body
and mind in a variety of positive ways.
Smiling not only helps to prevent us from looking tired, worn down, or overwhelmed but it can also
actually help decrease stress. And although this sounds strange, many studies have shown that smiling can
reduce stress even if a smile is not genuine. When you are stressed, take the time to smile even if you don't
really want to and you will surely reap the benefits.
Smiling can also bolster your overall health by helping your immune system to function more effectively.
It is thought that when you smile, immune function improves because you are more relaxed. Whether you're
trying to improve health or give your immune system a big boost ahead of cold and flu season, smiling may
help.
And if you want to make a good impression on other people, you'd better smile more. While more
negative facial expressions like frowns, scowls, and grimaces push people away, smiling is seen as more
attractive - and people may even assume you have more positive personality traits if you're smiling. Moreover,
smiling can make you look more youthful. This is because muscles we use to smile also lift the face, making a
person appear younger. So remember to smile your way through the day, and you'll look better than ever before.

Read the following passage about and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Biking has enjoyed a rise in popularity around the world as urbanites avoid public transport and turn to
the relative safety of a two-wheeled commute. [II] Now, many cycling supporters are working with local
governments in the hope of turning this COVID-related trend into lasting changes. [III]
Tabitha Combs, a lecturer at the University of North Carolina, has been gathering data on local actions
affecting cycling during the pandemic. [IV] At present, she has identified at least 365 global cities that have
designated new street space for this activity since she began on 24 March. "This was clearly a phenomenon that
was taking place in cities all around the world at roughly the same time," she explains. "It was like a
simultaneous global brainwave." While some cities created pop-up bike lanes, others implemented 'slow streets'
by erecting makeshift barriers and reducing speed limits so bikers could safely share the road with other
vehicles. In Europe, Paris fast-tracked a plan to create 650km of temporary and permanent bikeways, while
Rome introduced 150km of its own cycling lane.
However, there is still the issue of how cities can keep people cycling after COVID, especially as
enthusiasm is waning in places such as the UK, where a new report shows car ownership is considered more
important than ever. Harry Prapavessis, director of the Exercise and Health Psychology Lab at Canada's
Western University, thinks this boils down to three key factors: efficiency, safety and cost. To begin with,
should constantly improve the quality of their bike networks, and ensure infrastructure is well maintained even
in poor weather. They also need to put more effort into showcasing the cost-effectiveness of a two- wheeled
commute, which can be six-times cheaper than driving a car, to the general public.
Plus, he says, there are simple policies that can promote cycling, including tax breaks, reductions in
healthcare premiums or worker-compensation packages that include benefits for bike commuters. Prapavessis
adds: "These are strategies that lead to real behavioural change because there is this reminder that as you
ride regularly, society is showing you that it values and rewards your decision." As a behavioural scientist,
he hopes 2020 will not be remembered as a blip in time when bike travel soared only because of COVID-19
fears. "That would be really sad. It would mean that we didn't take advantage of what we could have done to
encourage and persuade those people to stick with it."

C. The costs of driving a car can be six times higher than those involved in riding bikes.
D. Prapavessis hopes that bikes will remain popular even after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Question 38: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. These strategies create real behavioral change by reminding cyclists that society values and rewards their
choices.
B. Such methods effectively promote behavioral change as they show that society appreciates regular cycling.
C. These approaches lead to lasting changes in behavior by indicating that society values the decision to cycle
regularly.

D. People will only ride regularly if they know society is rewarding their decision to do so.
Question 40: Which of the following best summaries the passage?
A. Biking has become more popular during COVID-19, leading cities to create new infrastructure and policies
to encourage lasting cycling habits.
B. The rise of biking during the pandemic is mainly due to urbanites avoiding public transport, and it is unlikely
to continue after COVID-19.
C. Cities have focused on improving public transport to decrease biking during the pandemic, and cycling has
not gained popularity.
