Read the following passage about being a responsible digital citizen 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.

BEING A RESPONSIBLE DIGITAL CITIZEN

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 behavior 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 theirpermission 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 there are fake websites and online scams which 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 behavior 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 know how to use digital technology safely these days, we should remember that there are many other people who are still at risk. By being responsible digital citizens, we can help everyone gain the benefits of the digital world without putting themselves at risk.

Read the following passage about the fitness trends 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.

FITNESS TRENDS

[I] Reformer Pilates is an advanced and more intense variation of traditional Pilates. [II] Since this type of equipment isn't something you would typically have at home, you'll need to visit a specialized Pilates center to try it. [III] While it might look easy at first, don't be fooled—by the end of the session, your thighs will be burning, and you might struggle to walk up or down stairs for a few days afterward. [IV] This workout pushes your body to its limits, providing a more challenging experience than standard Pilates, and many find it an effective way to build both strength and flexibility.

Trampolining is another popular fitness trend, and although it may seem like child's play, it's actually a highly effective workout. Jumping up and down on a trampoline can leave you feeling exhausted after just a few minutes. Surprisingly, it's even better for heart health than running, while also improving coordination and helping to reduce stress levels. Trampolining is gaining widespread popularity, with new centers popping up that feature as many as 150 trampolines. These facilities offer options for everyone: you can enjoy 'freejumping,' where you bounce without an instructor, or pay for professional lessons to learn the best techniques and get the most out of your workout. Many people are discovering that trampolining combines fun and fitness in a way that makes staying active much more enjoyable.

If you're someone who is typically active but feeling down or emotionally drained, Dynamic Running Therapy might be just what the doctor ordered. This trend involves running with a therapist, combining the benefits of physical exercise with talk therapy. Though these sessions are often more expensive than typical therapy sessions because of the professional fees, they offer significant advantages. Running while talking helps distract you from any discomfort, allowing you to cover longer distances, and creates a relaxed, open environment that can make it easier to talk compared to the usual therapist's office setting.
