Read the following passage about learning methods 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.
There are many ways to learn, and each person may have their own preferred method. Some students like to learn by
listening to teachers in class. This is known as the lecture method. It is a traditional way of learning where the teacher
explains the lesson, and students take notes. Other students prefer learning by doing. They enjoy hands-on activities like
experiments, group projects, or role-playing. This type of learning is often called experiential learning.

In recent years, online learning has become more popular. Students can now attend classes through the internet, watch
lessons on videos, and do exercises on their computers. This method is flexible, allowing students to learn at their own
pace and on their own time. Many people find it helpful because they can review lessons as many times as they want.

Some students find it difficult to study alone, so they prefer group study. When studying in groups, students can share
their ideas and help each other understand the material better. Group study also makes learning more interactive and fun.
However, it is important to focus during group study sessions to avoid distractions.

No matter which method a student chooses, it is important to stay organized. Writing down a study plan, setting goals, and
keeping track of progress can help students stay on track and learn more effectively. Being motivated is also key to
success, as students who are motivated tend to work harder and achieve better results.

Read the following passage about endangered languages and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the best answer to each of the following questionsfrom 31 to 40.
[I] Peer pressure, a common social phenomenon, has both positive and negative effects on individuals. [II] As humans are
inherently social beings, they often feel a strong need to belong to a group. [III] This desire to fit in sometimes leads
people to adopt behaviors, attitudes, or decisions influenced by their peers. [IV]
Peer pressure can be beneficial in many ways. Positive peer influence encourages individuals to adopt good habits, such as
studying harder, exercising, or participating in community service. For example, a student may be motivated to achieve
better grades after seeing their friends excel academically. Similarly, being part of a sports team can push someone to
maintain a healthy lifestyle and stay physically active. However, peer pressure is not always constructive it can also lead
to harmful behaviors.
Negative peer pressure often causes individuals to make decisions that they might not otherwise consider. Teenagers, in
particular, are vulnerable to such influence. For instance, they may engage in risky activities like smoking, drinking, or
skipping school to avoid being left out of their social circle. This kind of peer influence can negatively impact their health,
education, and future prospects. It is, therefore, essential for individuals to learn how to manage and resist undue pressure
from peers.
By understanding the dynamics of peer pressure and fostering self-confidence, people can make decisions that align
with their values. Parents, teachers, and mentors play a vital role in guiding young individuals to navigate these
challenges and make informed choices.
