VI. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
We all know about the pleasure and fun that you can get from playing video games. There's the satisfaction of
finally reaching the last level of a game after months of trying, or the thrill of beating your best friend in a game for the
first time. But some experts now say that as well as offering fantastic entertainment, video games might also be good
for you.
It seems that when you play video games, you might be acquiring some very important skills. For a start,
games are great for your concentration. Being able to focus on a task for an extended period of time is definitely a
skill you can use at school or later, in a job. Because you have to think incredibly quickly, video games can also
stimulate your brain and improve the speed at which you react. Fitness games, which are very popular, allow you to
practise sports techniques like balancing or hitting balls from the comfort of your living room. A lot of games also
teach decision-making skills. For example, when you have to choose the best way to escape from a burning building in
a game, you're learning how to solve problems and use your judgment quickly, and under pressure - skills that will be
very useful later in life. Gaming teaches you about success and failure too. The fact that a lot of games are difficult,
and you have to work hard to reach that top level, teaches you that in life you can succeed if you keep on trying. On
the other hand, games teach you that if you fail, you don't give up - you have a break, and then try again!
Some psychologists believe that role-playing games are particularly valuable. In the virtual environment,
young people can take on roles that are often not available to them in real life. You can become a leader, and have to
deal with people who lie to you, hide things from you or want to destroy you. By dealing with these situations, you can
develop social skills that might help you in the real world when you're older.
Gaming does have its downsides, of course. Playing for a while is great, but people who play for hours on end
can have problems. Physically, it can stop you from getting enough exercise, which is unhealthy. Psychologically,
there is evidence that some players can become addicted to their games and begin to prefer their 'virtual' lives, where
they are always in control. It is sometimes claimed that very violent games can have a negative effect on players and
lead to violence in real life. Although there isn't much evidence to support this, it is an argument that will go on and
on.
But overall, the message is that playing video games is not harmful, unless you spend too much time on them.
And while you're building your city, looking after your farm, defeating your enemies or making your fortune in a
game, you're also developing skills that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
(Adapted from "Prepare 6" by James Styring and Nicholas Tims)

X. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer

There has been confusion and misunderstandings about vaccines. But vaccinations are an important part of
family and public health. Vaccines prevent the spread of contagious, dangerous, and deadly diseases. These include
measles, polio, mumps, chicken pox, whooping cough, diphtheria, and HPV.
Everyone needs vaccines. They are recommended for infants, children, teenagers, and adults. There are widely
accepted immunization schedules available. They list what vaccines are needed, and at what age they should be given.
The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) believes that immunization is essential to preventing the spread
of contagious diseases. Vaccines are especially important for at-risk populations such as young children and older
adults.
There are some people who can't or shouldn't receive vaccinations. These include young infants (under 2
months) and people with certain medical issues. There is also a small number of people who don't respond to a
particular vaccine. Because these people can't be vaccinated, it's very important everyone else gets vaccinated to
preserve the "herd immunity" for the vast majority of people. This means that if most people are immune to a disease
because of vaccinations, it will stop spreading.
There can be side effects after you or your child get a vaccine. They are usually mild. They include redness or
swelling at the injection site. Sometimes children develop a low-grade fever. These symptoms usually go away in a
day or two. More serious side effects have been reported, but are rare.
It takes years of development and testing before a vaccine is approved as safe and effective. After the vaccine
is released to the public, its use is monitored to make sure there are no safety issues. Vaccines are safe. The benefits of
their use far outweigh any risks of side effects.
