Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)
Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for
each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the

identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item onA nswer Sheet

When considering risk factors associated with serious chronic diseases, we often think about health indicators such
as cholesterol, blood pressure, and body weight. But poor diet and physical inactivity also each increase the risk of heart
disease and have a role to play in the development of some cancers. Perhaps worse, the 26 effects of an unhealthy diet
and insufficient exercise are not limited to your body. Recent research has also shown that
27 in a high-fat and high-
sugar diet may have negative effects on your brain, causing learning and memory 28 .
Studies have found obesity is associated with impairments in cognitive functioning, as
29
by a range of learning and memory tests, such as the ability to remember a list of words presented some minutes or hours
earlier. There is also a growing body of evidence that diet-induced cognitive impairments can emerge 30 - within weeks or
even days. For example, one study found healthy adults 31 to a high-fat diet for five days showed impaired attention,
memory, and mood compared with a low-fat diet control group. Another study also found eating a high-fat and
25.


high-sugar breakfast each day for as little as four days resulted in problems with learning and memory 32
to those
observed in overweight and obese individuals.
Body weight was not hugely different between the groups eating a healthy diet and those on high fat and sugar
diets. So this shows negative 33

You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked
with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on

Increased Screen Time and Wellbeing Decline in Youth
[A]
Have young people never had it so good? Or do they face more challenge than any previous generation? Our
current era in the west is one of high wealth. This means minors enjoy material benefits and legal protections
that would have been the envy of those living in the past. But there is an increasing suspicion that all is not
well for our youth. And one of the most popular explanations, among some experts and the popular media, is
that excessive
“
screen time
”
is to blame. (This refers to all the attention young people devote to their
phones, tablets and laptops). However, this is a contentious theory and such claims have been treated
skeptically by some scholars based on their reading of the relevant data.
[B]
Now a new study has provided another contribution to the debate, uncovering strong evidence that
adolescent wellbeing in the United States really is experiencing a decline and arguing that the most likely
cause is the electronic riches we have given them. The background to this is that from the 1960s into the
early 2000s
