People think children should play sports. Sports are fun, and children stay healthy while playing with others. However, playing sports can have negative effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-esteem or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports, 40 million kids play sports in the US. Of these, 18 million say they have been yelled at or called names while playing sports. This leaves many children with a bad impression of sports. They think sports
are just too aggressive.
Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main cause of too much aggression in childre’s sports. They believe children copy aggressive 10 adult behavior. This behavior is then further reinforced through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that winning is everything. At children’s sporting events, parents may yell insults at other players or cheer when their child behaves aggressively. As well, children may be taught that hurting other players is acceptable, or they may be pushed to continue playing even when they are injured. In addition, the media makes violence seem exciting.

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 36 to 42.
Formal training programs are often readily available in large companies, meaning there are more opportunities to develop and grow. Thanks to the breadth of roles available in large corporations, you’re more likely to be able to make sideways moves and try different roles, as well as having more opportunities for promotion thanks to the volume of roles. At large companies like Mondelez, there are online learning platforms that make it easy for employees to improve any chosen skill. From virtual workshops to e-learning, the easy-access education is all at your fingertips. The great thing about this training is that you can be in control.
A larger company means a larger pool of talent, and big companies typically attract the best of the best. This means that you’ll have the opportunity to learn from people who are experts in their field, which is great for your professional and personal development.
Generally, the larger a company is, the more diverse it will be. Diversity in the workplace is beneficial from both a professional perspective, in that you’ll meet a broad range of people with hugely varied skillsets, and from a personal perspective, in that there’s a large pool of people to make friends with and socialize with. Whatever your interests, you’re sure to find someone with similar hobbies.
With such a large and diverse community at your fingertips, there are plenty of opportunities for networking in large companies. This is beneficial if you’re interested in changing roles internally, and it’s also beneficial when the time comes for you to uproot and move to a new company and a new role. Your sprawling network is likely to have friends and ex-colleagues in companies that you’re interested in moving to, so it’s a useful starting point when it comes to researching and reaching out to potential employers. Your dedicated hard work and impressive breadth of skills will help you gain those glowing references that will put you ahead of the game.
Large companies often have extra perks for employees, from subsidized gym memberships to book clubs and social events. While these shouldn’t be the driving force behind where you choose to work, they do contribute to the overall experience and your day-to-day life in the workplace.
Large companies can also support you outside of work. Many companies will offer schemes that allow you to work from home and work flexible hours, so whether you’re a working parent, have a pet at home, a long commute or lots of after-work commitments, large companies will respect that and allow you to tailor your work to suit your life outside the office. Importantly, many large companies also offer mental health support; developing mental health policies and training mental health first aiders, and the effects of these are likely to extend outside the office.
