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 from 34 to 38. 
  When Melinda Wenner Moyer looked around in the autumn of 2018, she saw everywhere
what she would describe as “assholes”. In the US and the UK, hate crime was – and is – rising.
Across the world, #MeToo allegations continued to come. Donald Trump was in the White House
and “I just felt like there was so much bad behaviour everywhere,” says Moyer. “I started thinking
about my kids and worrying about ‘Who were they going to become?’ and ‘What were they learning
from this behaviour?’ if they were seeing it on TV or hearing about it from their friends.” Moyer
realised: “What I wanted more than anything else was for my kids to not grow up to be assholes.”
Moyer, a science journalist and parenting columnist, decided to go through the research and
ended up writing a book with the pleasing title How to Raise Kids Who Aren’t Assholes. In the vast
realm of parenting advice, there was plenty on diet, sleep and how to turn your child into a
superhuman genius, but not a great deal on how to create a kind, compassionate person.
“I think there are probably a couple of reasons for this,” she says. Some parents have a fear,
she believes, that instilling kindness “is going to be to their child’s detriment – they’re going to be
walked all over, they’re not going to be successful, it’s going to hold them back in some way. But
when I looked at the research on this, it clearly suggested the opposite – that kindness is actually
strongly associated with success.

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 following questions from 39 to 45.
When you look up at the blue sky overhead or gaze across the seemingly endless expanse of a
blue ocean, you might think that the color blue is common in nature. But among all the hues found in
rocks, plants and flowers, or in the fur, feathers, scales and skin of animals, blue is surprisingly
scarce.But why is the color blue so rare? The answer stems from the chemistry and physics of how
colors are produced — and how we see them.
We're able to see color because each of our eyes contains between 6 million and 7 million
light-sensitive cells called cones. There are three different types of cones in the eye of a person with
normal color vision, and each cone type is most sensitive to a particular wavelength of light: red,
green or blue. Information from millions of cones reaches our brains as electrical signals that
communicate all the types of light reflected by what we see, which is then interpreted as different
shades of color.
When we look at a colorful object, such as a sparkling sapphire or a vibrant hydrangea
bloom, "the object is absorbing some of the white light that falls onto it; because it's absorbing some
of the light, the rest of the light that's reflected has a color," science writer Kai Kupferschmidt, author
of "Blue: In Search of Nature's Rarest Color" (The Experiment, 2021), told Live Science.
"When you see a blue flower — for instance, a cornflower — you see the cornflower as blue
because it absorbs the red part of the spectrum," Kupferschmidt said. Or to put it another way, the
flower appears blue because that color is the part of the spectrum that the blossom rejected,
Kupferschmidt wrote in his book, which explores the science and nature of this popular hue.
In the visible spectrum, red has long wavelengths, meaning it is very low-energy compared
with other colors. For a flower to appear blue, "it needs to be able to produce a molecule that can
absorb very small amounts of energy," in order to absorb the red part of the spectrum, Kupferschmidt
said.
Generating such molecules — which are large and complex — is difficult for plants to do,
which is why blue flowers are produced by fewer than 10% of the world's nearly 300,000 flowering
plant species. One possible driver for the evolution of blue flowers is that blue is highly visible to

pollinators such as bees, and producing blue blossoms may benefit plants in ecosystems where
competition for pollinators is high, Adrian Dyer, an associate professor and vision scientist at the
Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Melbourne, Australia, told the Australian Broadcasting
Company in 2016.
As for minerals, their crystal structures interact with ions (charged atoms or molecules) to
determine which parts of the spectrum are absorbed and which are reflected. The mineral lapis lazuli,
which is mined only in Afghanistan and produces the rare blue pigment ultramarine, contains
trisulfide ions — three sulfur atoms bound together inside a crystal lattice — that can release or bind
a single electron. "That energy difference is what makes the blue," Kupferschmidt said.
