Read the following passage about great jobsand 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.
Some people love working so much that it doesn’t feel like work. But most people are not so lucky.They need money to live, so they need a job. However, they don’t love their work, and they feelunhappy. And because they are unhappy, they may not work hard. Luckily, some people and companiesare trying to improve things.
Dan Price is the CEO of a company based in Seattle. In 2015, he raised the salaries of all of hisworkers to $70,000 a year, much higher than the average income in the United States. To pay for this,he cut his own salary to the same amount. Interestingly, according to a study by Princeton Universityin 2010 about salaries, people who make around $75,000 each year are happier and feel moresatisfaction than those who make less or more money. Since Price made his decision, his workers havebeen happier and his company has been more thriving.
Money is one reason why some workers are unhappy with their jobs. Another reason is working toomany hours. Perpetual Guardian, a company based in New Zealand, wanted staff to have a better work-life balance. The company came up with a plan. Its staff were paid for five days, but they only had towork four days each week. Not surprisingly, workers were happier and more satisfied.
Many studies show that people who do things are happier than people who buy things. Forexample, going on a road trip or learning to play the guitar is better than buying a car or guitar. Thefamous company Airbnb wants its staff to have great experiences. Workers get $2,000 each year to stayat Airbnb properties anywhere in the world. As a result, many people who work at Airbnb love theirjobs.

Read the following passage 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.
[I] New guidelines from a group of experts have clarified healthy drink recommenda-tions for kids, stressing that teenagers should avoid caffeine. [II] The guidance comes at a time when caffeinated drinks are seemingly skyrocketing in popularity among young people. [III]
A poll released last year by the C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital found that nearly 25% of parents say their teens consume caffeine most days or every day. According to the parents of teen caffeine drinkers, soda was by far the most popular caffeine source in their kids’ diet. About a third of respondents said their kids drank coffee or tea, while about 22% said their kids had caffeinated energy drinks. “Chocolate is a big source, too,” pediatrician Danelle Fisher, MD, told Health. [IV]
Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant, which can make people feel more alert and energized. The effects usually peak within an hour of consumption but can linger for four to six hours. In adults, caffeine has been linked to benefits such as a lower risk of heart disease and diabetes and a decreased risk of memory loss. Yet, it does also interfere with the absorption of calcium in the body and can increase blood pressure.
Caffeine is generally safe for adults - up to 400 milligrams per day - but the stimulant has different effects on kids’ bodies, explained Megan Lott, Master of Public Health. “Kids and teens have smaller bodies and rapidly developing brains, making them more susceptible to the negative effects of consuming too much caffeine.” It can interfere with sleep quality and exacerbate mental health conditions in kids.
The caffeine in these beverages isn’t the only cause for concern, said Lott - other ingredients that tend to show up in caffeinated drinks can also be problematic. “Most caffeinated drinks popular with kids and teens also have large amounts of added sugars, non-sugar sweeteners, and other additives. These ingredients are not recommended in isolation and are particularly cautioned against when combined.”
Overall, experts and research agree: Kids and teens don’t need caffeine. But pediatricians also agreed that, though caffeine shouldn’t be a staple in teens’ diets, they don’t necessarily need to avoid it entirely. Teens should keep their caffeine intake below a ‘reasonable’ limit of 100 milligrams per day. It’s also best that they cut off caffeine consumption by early afternoon, avoid energy drinks, and be mindful of any signs of caffeine dependency, such as needing caffeine to stay awake.
