Read the following passage about online dating 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.
Psychologists have found many advantages and disadvantages to online dating. Among the many
criticisms aimed at online dating, the most severe concern is its effects on people's self-esteem and mental
health.
Swipe left or right is the main feature of popular dating apps, where users quickly look at profiles.
However, this system is criticized for being superficial. A study showed that users often feel less satisfied
with their appearance. Jessica Strubel found that after a while, users begin to feel less like unique, special
individuals and more like they're disposable. This feeling leads to users becoming increasingly sensitive
about their looks and bodies, heightening self-consciousness. Dating apps also added to the idea that
there's always something better around the corner, which further pressures users into trying to appear
more attractive.
Dating apps not only harm self-esteem but also alter perceptions of relationships. By accelerating the
dating process, these apps encourage poor social behavior. For instance, it's not unusual for people to ignore
"likes" and messages or to lose interest and cut off communication. This behavior would have been
considered extremely rude in the past. But with online dating, it is a common reality.
Furthermore, thirty-five percent of users actually reported feeling pessimistic about dating. Only
twenty-eight percent of surveyed users reported feeling hopeful after using a dating site or app.

Question 23. According to paragraph 2, all of the following are problems with dating apps EXCEPT _____.
A. they damage people’s self-esteem B. they are inefficient
C. they make users feel disposable D. they are superficial
Question 24. The word “profiles” in paragraph 2 is CLOSEST in meaning to _____.
A. survey B. invitation C. description D. outline
Question 25. The word “it” in paragraph 3 refers to _____.
A. behavior B. communication C. the past D. dating
Question 26. The word “accelerating” in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by _____.
A. delaying B. slowing down C. hindering D. quickening
Question 27. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. Dating apps pressure users to look attractive.
B. Users appear more attractive on dating apps than in real life.
C. Users often find more attractive partners on dating apps.
D. Users are not interested in one another's looks.
Question 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Psychologists have identified only negative aspects of online dating.
B. Dating apps not only negatively impact self-esteem but also change how people view relationships.
C. Thirty-five percent of users reported feeling hopeful about dating.

Read the following passage about smart energy 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 31 to 40.
SMART ENERGY
The upcoming decades will bring significant changes in energy supply and consumption. As some
major oil-producing countries have already reached 'peak oil' and concerns about global warming rise, many
nations are prioritizing the transition to a low-carbon economy, which will transform electricity supply and
usage. [I] Firstly, there will be an increase in overall demand, as consumers switch from oil and gas to
electricity to power their homes and vehicles. [II] Secondly, there will be an increase in power generation,
not only in terms of how much is generated, but also how it is generated, as there is growing electricity
generation from renewable sources. [III] To meet these challenges, countries are investing in Smart Grid
technology. [IV] This system aims to provide the electricity industry with a better understanding of power
generation and demand, and to use this information to create a more efficient power network.
Smart meters can be integrated with the internet or telephone networks. This connectivity enables
customers to control their appliances from a distance. For instance, individuals can turn devices on or off
remotely, providing added convenience. Overall, the system offers significant benefits in managing energy
usage. By analyzing real-time data, it allows for better decision-making. This technology not only improves
efficiency but also supports cost savings. Ultimately, the integration of smart technology will enhance user
experience and system management.
The coming decades will bring significant shifts in energy supply and usage. A problem is the fact that
many renewable power generation sources are located in remote areas, such as windy uplands and coastal
regions, where there is currently a lack of electrical infrastructure. New infrastructures therefore must be
built. Thankfully, with improved smart technology, this can be done more efficiently by reducing the
reinforcement or construction costs.
Although Smart Technology is still in its infancy, pilot schemes to promote and test it are
already underway. Consumers are currently testing the new smart meters which can be used in their homes
to manage electricity use. There are also a number of demonstrations being planned to show how the smart
technology could practically work, and trials are in place to test the new electrical infrastructure. It is here
where Smart Technology is likely to be promoted first, utilising a range of sustainable power sources,
transport solutions and an infrastructure for charging electrically powered vehicles. The infrastructure is
already changing fast.

Question 31. Where in paragraph 1 does the following sentence best fit?
There is also likely more electricity generation centres, as households and communities take up the
opportunity to install photovoltaic cells and small scale wind turbines.
A. [I] B. [II] C. [III] D. [IV]
Question 32. The word “remote” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by _____.
A. attractive B. alone C. isolated D. crowded
Question 33. The word “underway” in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _____.

A. Renewable power generation sources are found in urban areas.
B. Despite being in its early stages, pilot schemes for Smart Technology are already in progress.
C. Some major oil-producing countries have yet to reach 'peak oil' as concerns about global warming
increase.
D. The new computer system will not significantly reduce operational and maintenance costs.
Question 38. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. By integrating with the internet or telephone networks, smart meters enable customers to control
appliances remotely.
B. Smart meters can connect to the internet or telephone networks.
C. Smart meters provide significant benefits for managing energy usage.
