Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct option that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 1 to 5.
Cities often feel noticeably hotter than the surrounding countryside, a phenomenon known as the urban heat island (UHI). An urban heat island is a metropolitan area that becomes significantly warmer than nearby rural regions, largely because concrete, asphalt, and buildings absorb and retain heat. In such environments, waste heat, generated by cars, public transport, factories, homes, and even people themselves, (1) ______. When buildings and paved surfaces are constructed close together, they trap heat, and this insulation effect, which slows the release of warmth, causes temperatures in the spaces between structures to remain high even after sunset.
At night, the contrasts becomes especially clear. Surfaces such as roads, sidewalks, and parking lots act like vast reservoirs of heat, preventing warmth from escaping into the cooler night sky. In a dense city core, skyscrapers and narrow streets restrict airflow, (2) ______. The consequences are serious: poorer air quality develops because pollutants released by vehicles and industry cannot disperse easily, while local water systems are harmed when heated runoff enters streams and rivers, damaging aquatic species adapted to cooler conditions. Urban heat islands also place a heavy strain on energy networks, since residents increasingly rely on air conditioning during summer peaks, (3) ______.
To reduce these effects, urban planners, policymakers, and architects are developing both modest and ambitious strategies. Green roofs, essentially gardens on rooftops, help cool buildings by absorbing sunlight and converting it into biomass rather than heat. (4) ______. Expanding urban vegetation and creating more open layouts improve air circulation, allowing heat to dissipate. Though urban heat islands represent a modern challenge, thoughtful design and collective action can lessen their impact, (5) ______.

Read the following passage 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 17 to 26.
Women employed in technology and financial services may be disproportionately exposed to job displacement as artificial intelligence and automation spread, a report by the City of London Corporation warns. [I] While those sectors are often portrayed as “future-proof”, the report argues that the distribution of work within them is uneven: women remain heavily concentrated in clerical and support functions — precisely the tasks most susceptible to automation — while being underrepresented in higher-growth digital roles.
A further concern is the “mid-career cohort”: women with five or more years of experience who might be expected to transition into more technical positions. Instead, many are being sidelined by recruitment systems that reward linear career trajectories and narrowly defined job histories. The report suggests that rigid hiring practices, increasingly reinforced by automated CV screening, can penalize candidates whose profiles do not match predetermined templates. [II] Career breaks linked to caring responsibilities, for instance, may be treated as gaps rather than evidence of resilience or transferable capability; similarly, experience gained outside conventional tech pathways may be discounted even when it signals strong problem-solving and stakeholder-management skills.
To counteract these dynamics, the City of London Corporation urges employers to prioritize reskilling and upskilling, especially for women not currently in technical roles. The report highlights clerical positions as a key risk area, estimating that around 119,000 such roles across tech, financial and professional services—predominantly performed by women—could be displaced over the next decade. [III] Investing in retraining programmes could also reduce organizational costs, with potential savings of up to £757m in redundancy payments, while helping firms redeploy staff into areas where talent shortages persist.
Crucially, the report argues for a shift from credential-based hiring towards capability-based recruitment, where employers assess potential adaptability and learning agility rather than relying solely on past technical experience. It also notes high attrition among women in tech, with estimates suggesting up to 60,000 leave each year due to limited progression, insufficient recognition and inadequate pay—factors that undermine retention just as demand for digital skills intensifies.
The findings sit within a broader climate of workforce anxiety about AI, with surveys indicating that a significant share of UK workers fear job loss within the next five years. [IV] More than 12,000 vacancies remained unfilled in 2024. Finally, it cautions that pay rises alone will not close the gap; without sustained investment in skills, the digital talent shortfall could persist to at least 2035, potentially costing the UK over £10bn in foregone economic growth.
Question 17. Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 1?
A. By characterizing tech and finance as “future-proof”, the report downplays the likelihood of workforce disruption from AI and automation.
B. AI and automation will mainly replace men in tech and finance because women already dominate high-growth digital roles.
C. The City of London Corporation maintains that the main threat from AI lies in high-growth digital roles, where women are increasingly overrepresented.
D. Though seen as “future-proof,” tech and finance may put women at higher AI job-loss risk because many work in automatable support roles, not growing digital ones.
Question 18. The word “sidelined” in paragraph 2 mostly means ______.
A. ignored B. promoted C. trained D. praised
Question 19. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
Career breaks linked to caring responsibilities, for instance, may be treated as gaps rather than evidence of resilience or transferable capability.
A. Caregiving-related career breaks may be interpreted as gaps in work history instead of being recognized as evidence of the candidate’s resilience and transferable ability.
B. Employers often treat caregiving-related career breaks as valuable evidence of resilience and transferable skills.
C. Career breaks taken for caregiving are regarded as gaps in employment rather than as clear proof of strong technical expertise in the field and transferable capability.
D. Career breaks are considered acceptable only when they involve formal technical training or certification, rather than time off taken for caregiving responsibilities.
Question 20. Which of the following is NOT stated in paragraph 3?
A. Employers are urged to prioritize reskilling and upskilling, especially for women not currently in technical roles.
B. The report estimates 119,000 clerical roles could be displaced within a decade.
C. Investing in retraining could reduce organizational costs, with potential savings of up to £757m in redundancy payments.
D. The report predicts that most technical roles will be displaced by automation within the next decade.
Question 21. The word “It” in paragraph 4 refers to ______.
A. capability-based recruitment B. the report C. a shift D. past technical experience
Question 22. According to paragraph 4, which of the following best explains why capability-based recruitment is presented as crucial for improving women’s retention in tech?
A. It ensures higher salaries by requiring companies to raise pay in order to meet legal equality standards.
B. It helps employers recognize potential beyond linear job histories, addressing barriers that push women out as demand for digital skills rises.
C. It reduces the need for technical training by prioritising candidates with strong formal credentials.
D. It eliminates attrition by guaranteeing promotions for women regardless of performance evaluations.
Question 23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Pay growth is presented as the primary lever for closing the long-term digital talent shortfall.
B. Automated CV screening generally reduces bias by valuing non-linear career paths and transferable skills.
C. The report projects that digital roles will see the largest net job losses as automation accelerates.
D. Women are concentrated in clerical and support roles, many of which are especially susceptible to automation.
Question 24. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Capability-based recruitment could help reduce talent shortages.
B. Automated CV screening always improves fairness in hiring.
C. Most women prefer clerical jobs to technical roles.
D. AI will remove the need for reskilling programmes.
Question 25. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit? “Yet the report points out a contradiction: despite automation risks, these sectors still struggle to fill digital posts.”
A. [I] B. [II] C. [III] D. [IV]
Question 26. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
A. The report warns that women in tech and finance face higher AI job-loss risk due to role segregation and rigid hiring, and calls for reskilling and capability-based recruitment to ease talent gaps.
B. The report argues that higher wages will solve the UK’s digital skills shortage and prevent most automation-related job losses in tech and finance.
C. The passage claims automated CV screening has largely eliminated discrimination and helped mid-career women move into high-growth digital roles.
D. The report concludes that AI will reduce the need for training because most digital vacancies will disappear as automation expands.
Read the following passage 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 27 to 34.
In recent decades, digital technologies have become a core component of cultural heritage preservation. Museums, libraries, and research institutions increasingly rely on digital archives to store large collections of historical documents, artworks, and artefacts. Access through digital surrogates rather than direct physical handling reduces deterioration from repeated contact, light exposure, and unstable environmental conditions, extending the lifespan of items.
Digital archiving includes technical processes such as high-resolution scanning, object photography, and structured metadata systems. It plays an important role in organising digital collections. It enables institutions to document attributes such as provenance, physical condition, and historical context, allowing materials to be described and retrieved. Once digitised, items can be stored electronically, duplicated accurately, and distributed without affecting the originals. This allows institutions to maintain multiple secure copies and limits the risk of permanent loss resulting from natural disasters, material decay, or accidental damage. Digitisation is valuable for fragile objects that cannot be examined, transported, or displayed.
Beyond preservation, digital archives substantially extend access to cultural resources. Online platforms allow researchers, students, and the public to consult collections across geographical boundaries, supporting academic research, education, and cross-cultural exchange. Advanced search and retrieval tools facilitate the analysis of large datasets, enabling users to identify patterns, compare records, and locate materials with minimal constraints.
Despite these benefits, the long-term sustainability of digital archives presents persistent challenges. Storage infrastructures and software systems require continual updating to maintain compatibility and data integrity, while evolving file formats necessitate periodic migration. Sustained investment and technical oversight are essential to ensure that digital heritage remains accessible as technologies develop.
Question 27. The word “surrogates” in paragraph 1 mostly means ______.
A. substitutes B. originals C. components D. decorations
Question 28. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1 as a factor causing damage to physical cultural items?
A. frequent physical contact B. unstable environmental conditions C. transportation D. exposure to light
Question 29. The word “It” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. physical condition B. digital archiving C. high-resolution scanning D. technical processes
Question 30. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. By maintaining several secure copies, institutions can prevent permanent loss resulting from natural disasters or material deterioration.
B. The maintenance of multiple secure copies prevents permanent loss arising from environmental damage and unforeseen incidents.
C. Maintaining multiple secure copies reduces the risk that materials damaged by environmental or accidental factors will be permanently lost.
D. By maintaining several secure copies, institutions can reduce the risk of permanent loss caused by natural or accidental factors.
Question 31. The word “fragile” in paragraph 2 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ______.
A. vulnerable B. durable C. delicate D. unstable
Question 32. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 3?
A. Digital archives limit public access to cultural collections across different regions.
B. Online platforms allow users to consult collections without geographical limitations.
C. Digital tools mainly benefit researchers rather than students or the wider public globally.
D. Physical access is still required to compare and classify cultural records effectively.
Question 33. Which paragraph mentions methods of digitising heritage items?
A. Paragraph 4 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 1 D. Paragraph 3
Question 34. Which paragraph mentions issues affecting the long-term viability of digital archives?
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 1 D. Paragraph 4
