Read the following passage about A Sustainable Future 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 recent years, the concept of green living has gained significant traction as individuals and
communities recognize the importance of sustainable practices. Green living refers to adopting a lifestyle
that minimizes an individual’s or society's use of the Earth's natural resources. It encompasses a range of
practices, from reducing waste and conserving energy to choosing sustainable products and supporting local
economies.
One major aspect of green living is the emphasis on reducing waste. Many people are now adopting
practices such as recycling and composting to manage their waste more effectively. This shift not only helps
to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills but also promotes a healthier environment.
Additionally, green living encourages the use of renewable resources. Solar energy, for example, has
become increasingly popular as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. By investing in solar panels, homeowners
can harness the power of the sun to generate electricity for their homes, which significantly reduces their
carbon footprint.
Moreover, green living also involves making informed choices about the products we use. Choosing
organic foods, for instance, supports sustainable farming practices and reduces exposure to harmful
chemicals. However, it is essential to distinguish between organic and conventional foods to understand
their environmental impact better.
In discussions about sustainability, the term "eco-friendly" often arises. This term refers to products and
practices that do not harm the environment. For example, eco-friendly cleaning products can be an excellent
alternative to traditional cleaners that contain harmful chemicals.
Paraphrasing is also crucial when discussing green living. It involves restating ideas in one’s own
words to ensure understanding. For instance, one might say, "Living sustainably means making choices
that benefit the planet," instead of directly repeating the definition of green living.
 Ultimately, adopting green living practices can lead to a healthier lifestyle and a more sustainable
planet. Communities that embrace these practices often find a renewed sense of purpose and connection to
nature. Furthermore, cities around the world are implementing policies that support green living initiatives.
These may include increasing public transportation options or creating green spaces for residents to enjoy.
In conclusion, green living is not just a trend; it is a necessary shift toward a sustainable future. By
making conscious choices, we can contribute to the well-being of our planet and future generations.

Read the following passage about Challenges and Opportunities of Urbanization 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.
Urbanization is the increasing movement of people from rural areas to cities, significantly impacting
society, the economy, and the environment. While it fosters economic growth by creating job opportunities
and driving innovation, urbanization also presents challenges that require sustainable solutions.
Cities become hubs for entrepreneurship, offering better access to education and healthcare. However,
rapid growth can lead to overcrowding, inadequate housing, and strained public services, resulting in poor
living conditions for many. Environmental concerns arise as natural habitats are lost and pollution increases,
making effective urban planning essential.
Sustainable urban development should prioritize green spaces, public transport, and renewable energy
to mitigate negative impacts. Collaboration among governments, businesses, and communities is crucial
for addressing these challenges. Engaging local residents in decision-making ensures that urban strategies
are inclusive and effective.

Read the following passage about Nelson Mandela 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.
Nelson Mandela, born on July 18, 1918, in the village of Mvezo in South Africa, is one of the most
iconic figures of the 20th century. He is best known for leading the fight against apartheid, a system of
institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination in South Africa. Mandela was born into the Thembu
royal family and received a traditional education, but he went on to study law at the University of Fort Hare
and the University of Witwatersrand.
Mandela’s journey as an anti-apartheid leader began in the 1940s when he joined the African National
Congress (ANC). During the 1950s, he became increasingly involved in activism, leading protests and legal
challenges against apartheid policies. In 1962, Mandela was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment for
his involvement in planning sabotage against the government. He spent 27 years in prison, mostly on
Robben Island, under harsh conditions. Despite his imprisonment, Mandela’s reputation grew globally, and
he became a symbol of resistance to oppression.
 In 1990, due to intense domestic and international pressure, the South African government released
Mandela from prison. He played a crucial role in negotiating the end of apartheid and the transition to
multiracial democracy. In 1994, Mandela became South Africa’s first black president in the country’s first
fully representative democratic election.
Mandela’s presidency marked a new era of racial reconciliation and healing. He focused on national
unity, forgiveness, and peace, famously saying, "I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried
not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing
a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb."
After stepping down as president in 1999, Mandela continued his activism, focusing on issues like
HIV/AIDS awareness and global peace. He passed away on December 5, 2013, leaving behind a legacy of
courage, perseverance, and hope for future generations.
