III. READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the following questions.
Passage 1
UN scientific advisors have recommended the Great Barrier Reef not be placed on a list of world heritage
sites “in danger” but emphasised that the planet’s biggest coral reef system remains under “serious threat” from
global heating and water pollution.
Unesco said in a report that the Australian government had taken positive steps to protect the reef since
a UN monitoring mission visited Queensland in March last year. The UN mission report listed several steps the
federal and state governments should make to protect it, including improving water quality, introducing
sustainable fishing strategies and removing gillnets from the park. That report also said the government should
have “clear commitments” to cut greenhouse gas emissions “consistent with the efforts required to limit the
global average temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.” Since the UN mission in March, the
report said the Albanese government had set an improved target to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 43% by
2030 and to reach net zero emissions by 2050. Experts have said Australia’s latest 2030 target is not consistent
with a global goal of keeping global heating to 1.5°C.
The federal environment minister, Tanya Plibersek, said: “Unesco’s draft decision acknowledges that,
under Labor, Australia is once again serious about protecting the Reef and acting on climate change. “Our Great
Barrier Reef is one of the planet’s most outstanding natural wonders. I encourage people from around the world
to come and see our beautiful reef for themselves - you’re very welcome.”

Passage 2
While no one can predict all the jobs young people will be able to choose from in the second half of the 21st
century, there are many deciding factors in making decisions about the skills and jobs in demand for the
workforce in the future.
Healthcare is one of the fastest growing sectors, with a predicted future growth of 14.2%. The Covid-19
pandemic shone a light on the importance of worker in these fields, with doctors, nurses, and other health
professionals in high demand. Along with this, life expectancy is growing. The older generation is expected to
more than double by 2057. This will increase the demand for skilled physical therapists, which is already growing
due to our sedentary lifestyles.
Also, as a result of the pandemic in which the massive rise in online learning and teaching was witnessed,
demands for teachers across all age ranges are high. Teaching can be done from just about anywhere and
assisted by many advancements in digital technology. Teachers in the future need new technological skills such
as the capacity to manage online learning platforms, create open educational resources and use digital media.

the way for new jobs in the future. Many people said that coding careers will be the most important tech jobs
in the future. That makes software developers and computer programmers the most highly-ranked jobs overall

Passage 3
It is common for all of us to take more tasks than our desired potential. This can often result in stress
and tiredness. Learn the art of sharing work with your partners based on their skills and abilities.
Before the start of the day, make a list of tasks that need your immediate attention as unimportant tasks
can consume much of your precious time. Some tasks need to be completed on that day only while other
unimportant tasks could be carried forward to next day. In short, prioritize your tasks to focus on those that are
more important.
Carry a planner or notebook with you and list all the tasks that come to your mind. Make a simple “To
Do” list before the start of the day, prioritize the tasks, and make sure that they are attainable. To better
manage your time-management skills, you may think of making 3 lists: work, home, and personal.
Stress often occurs when we accept more work than our ability. The result is that our body starts feeling
tired which can affect our productivity. Instead, share tasks with your partners and make sure to leave some
time for relaxation.
Most of the successful men and women have one thing in common. They start their day early as it gives
them time to sit, think, and plan their day. When you get up early, you are more calm, creative, and clear-
headed. As the day progresses, your energy levels start going down, which affects your productivity and your
performance as well.

C. Disadvantages of Time-managing Skills D. Beware of Your Time
2. Making a list of important tasks can help us _______.
