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 8 to 12.
Many cities and countries have identified food waste (also sometimes called avoidable food waste
or food loss and waste) as an issue. According to a 2014 study conducted by Value Chain Management
International, the amount of preventable food waste discarded annually in Canada amounts to over $31
billion in losses, with approximately 47% of food waste produced by consumers.
Wasted food has environmental, economic and social implications. When you waste food that
could have been eaten, you are also wasting the natural and human resources that were used to grow,
produce, process and transport that food.
Throwing away edible food represents economic losses. The amount of food thrown away
amounts to wasting approximately $1,760 annually for a family of four. And the food that ends up in
the waste stream requires resources to manage its disposal and diversion, the cost of which is passed
on to municipal utilities and services.
Wasted food that ends up in the garbage, and ultimately the landfill, produces methane—a
greenhouse gas that is 21 times more potent than carbon dioxide. It’s estimated that 7% of greenhouse
gases produced globally are due to preventable food waste. Some of that wasted food could be
recovered through donation programs and used to help address food insecurity, rather than going to
waste.

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 39 to 45.
When we think of the Hawaiian Islands, they often bring to mind a thriving tourist destination
with white sandy beaches and palm trees. However, on one of the most northern islands, you will not
find any tourists or holiday activities. The island of Niihau is characterized by an extinct volcano, a
delicate wetland and thriving forests. It is also the home to various endangered species such as the
Hawaiian monk seal. The island belongs to the Robinson family who bought it from the King of
Hawaii back in 1864 with the promise to maintain the traditional Hawaiian culture and language of the
natives living there. In order to keep this promise, the family over time began to limit visitors to the
island. Today, contact with the native Niihauans on the island is forbidden except by invitation.
Therefore, until recently, the natives knew very little about the outside world.
A walk through the main village of the island shows how Niihau appears to be frozen in time.
There are no cars, shops, restaurants or police. The only means of transport are horses and bicycles.
There is no running water, power or telephone lines. All of the 130 permanent residents are native
Hawaiians and speak Hawaiian as their first language. They don’t pay rent and live by fishing and
farming. It’s a lifestyle far different from residents on the other Hawaiian islands.
The children of Niihau may not have TV or electronics like other children, but they attend a
small school that relies entirely on solar power for electricity. The school is one of the few schools in
the USA that is completely solar powered. The school teaches the Hawaiian traditions and values of
living off the land and ocean, and at the same time offers the children the opportunity to learn how to
use computers and connect with the outside world.
One way outsiders can connect with Niihau is to purchase the islanders’ handicrafts such as their
shell jewelry. These products are on sale in other islands. Although few have the chance to visit this
forbidden land, its mystery continues to fascinate tourists.
