Setting achievable goals is also an important part of lifelong learning. Goals give direction and motivation to

develop. Second, break your goals down into smaller, more manageable tasks and track your progress. Finally,
celebrate your accomplishments along the way to stay motivated.
People learn in different ways, so it’s also essential that you find the methods that work best for you.
You can do this by trying out a variety of different learning methods, such as reading, watching videos, attending
lectures and engaging in hands-on practice. At the same time, you should also experiment with different learning
tools and techniques until you find what works best for you. Becoming a lifelong learner is a continuous process that
requires dedication and effort. Developing a growth mindset, setting achievable goals, and using a variety of learning
methods are essential steps to becoming a successful lifelong learner. By embracing learning as a lifelong journey,
you will continue to grow, develop new skills, and stay relevant in today’s ever-changing world.

Read the following passage 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 28 to 35.
These days, digital technology is a major part of everyday life for all of us, and we use it for almost everything,
from work to school and entertainment. Therefore, with everyone spending so much time connected to the Internet
and using digital devices, it's important that we all understand how to be responsible digital citizens in the modern
world. But what exactly does that mean?
A responsible digital citizen is someone who uses technology in a sensible way and encourages others to
do the same. They are careful about their online behaviour and always try to be as polite as possible, which helps
others to avoid having negative experiences online. Responsible digital citizens respect other people's privacy, too.
They don't post pictures of others or discuss people's personal lives without their permission because that could
harm their online security. In this way, digital citizens help others to feel safer and more comfortable in the digital
world.
Responsible digital citizens are also aware of the potential risks of being online. They understand that fake
websites and online scams try to access people's personal information to hack into their social media accounts or
even bank accounts.
When a digital citizen encounters one of these online scams, they should report it to the cyber police to stop
this behaviour from happening. By doing this, digital citizens play an important role in making the Internet a
safer place for all users. While many of us use digital technology safely, we should remember that many other
people are still at risk. By being responsible digital citizens, we can help everyone gain the benefits of the digital
world without putting themselves or others at risk.
