Elephants, majestic creatures that symbolize wisdom and strength, are facing a serious threat due to the demand for ivory. Elephant ivory, often referred to as "white gold," is highly sought after for ornamental and cultural purposes. However, the trade of ivory comes at a devastating cost: the survival of these gentle giants. 2. Every year, tens of thousands of elephants are killed for their tusks, pushing some populations to the brink of extinction. Poachers target elephants in Africa and Asia, driving a brutal industry
fueled by high market prices. Despite international bans, the illegal ivory trade continues to thrive, with sophisticated smuggling networks and persistent demand in certain regions. 3. The consequences of ivory poaching extend beyond the loss of individual animals. Elephant populations play a crucial role in their ecosystems. As keystone species, they help maintain the balance of their habitats by spreading seeds, creating water access for other animals, and shaping landscapes. The decline of elephants disrupts these ecosystems, affecting countless other species. 4. To combat the crisis of ivory poaching, comprehensive and multi-faceted conservation efforts are essential. Governments must enforce anti-poaching laws with harsher penalties and use advanced technology like drones to track illegal activities. Raising awareness about the ecological importance of elephants and the long-term consequences of their decline can shift public attitudes. Communities living near elephant habitats also play a critical role. By offering alternative livelihoods through sustainable tourism or conservation projects, locals can be empowered to protect rather than exploit these animals. Ethical tourism initiatives also provide much-needed funding for habitat protection and anti-poaching patrols. 5. The fight against the ivory trade is not just about saving elephants; it is about preserving biodiversity and protecting the intricate balance of our planet. Together, we can ensure a future where elephants roam free, their tusks serving their natural purpose rather than being a symbol of human greed. Question 23: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 1? A.

The survival of elephants largely depends on the trade of their ivory, which is known for its significant cost. C.

Paragraph 5 Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 30. 1. Short videos have become a defining feature of social media in recent years. Platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts thrive on bite-sized content, with clips lasting between 15 seconds and a minute. From viral dance challenges to quick cooking hacks, these videos provide entertainment, education, and creativity in a compact format that fits perfectly into modern, fast-paced lifestyles. 2. The appeal of short videos lies in their ability to capture attention almost instantly. [I] In an age of shrinking attention spans, short videos deliver humor, inspiration, or information in seconds. [II] Whether it's learning new workout routines or discovering creative recipes, users can engage with meaningful content that fits into their busy schedules without committing too much time. [III] Moreover, the simplicity of creating these videos has made content creation accessible to everyone. [IV] 3. But behind the glittering appeal lies a darker side. The addictive nature of short videos has given rise to "doomscrolling," a phenomenon where users lose hours mindlessly swiping through an endless feed. Studies have shown that this behavior can harm productivity and disrupt sleep patterns, especially when it continues late into the night. The high-energy, rapid- fire nature of short videos also takes a toll on our ability to focus. Research indicates that consuming fast-paced content can make it harder to engage with more complex, slower-paced tasks like reading, studying, or even having meaningful conversations. 4. So, how can we enjoy short videos without falling into their traps? Experts recommend setting boundaries, such as limiting daily screen time and avoiding videos before bedtime to protect sleep. Curating content by following accounts that share educational or skill-based material can also make the experience more meaningful. Parents should encourage open
discussions about online safety and use parental controls to guide younger users. By adopting mindful habits, short videos can remain a source of joy and inspiration rather than a digital distraction. As short videos continue to shape our online experience, the challenge lies in making them work for us - not the other way around.

Short videos would be more appealing if they did not have any drawbacks. D. The negative effects of short videos are not significant enough to be considered. Question 35: Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3? A. Short videos are addictive and can negatively impact productivity, sleep patterns, and the ability to focus. B. Short videos have negative effects, but they also provide moments of relaxation and enjoyment for users. C. Short videos are popular because they provide fast-paced content that appeals to users with limited time to spare. D. The fast nature of short videos makes them entertaining, but their addictive quality can lead to excessive screen time.

Short videos, which have become immensely popular, are associated with potential negative impacts, but mindful habits can make them a positive tool. C.
