Read the following passage about the impact of cyberspace communication and mark the letters A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.

     Teens don't understand the big fuss. As the first generation to grow up in a digital world, they hardly know a time when computers weren't around, and they leap at the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends. So what? But researchers nationwide are increasingly concerned that, as cyberspace replaces the pizza parlor as the local hangout, adolescents are becoming more isolated, less adept at interpersonal relationships, and perhaps numb to the small and large deceptions that are prevalent in the email world. Researchers are questioning how the futures of teenagers are changing when so many of them are spending an hour or two on the Internet each day, replacing face-to-face contact with computer screens.

     Social psychologists, including Robert Kraut, have expressed concern about the "opportunity costs" of so much online time for youths. He found that teens who used computers, even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. In his study of 100 families using the Internet, Kraut noted that their computer time replaced hours they would have spent with others. "Chatting online may be better than watching television, but it is worse than hanging out with real friends," he said.

     Today's teens, however, don't see anything strange in the fact that the computer screen occupies a central place in their social lives. "School is stressful and busy. There's almost no time to hang out", said Parker Rice, 17. "Talking online is just catch-up time." Many teens acknowledge there's an unreal quality to their cyberspace communication, including their odd shorthand terms, such as POS ( parent over shoulder) or LOL (laughing out loud). Psychologists see this code as part of the exclusive shared language that teenagers love.

     When it comes to email exchanges, teens also show a remarkable tolerance for each other's fudges or deceptions. Nor are they surprised when a mere acquaintance shares a personal secret through email. Nobody seems to expect the online world to be the same as the real world.

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 31 to 40.

     1. The trend of remote work has surged dramatically in recent years, largely accelerated by technological advancements and the COVID-19 pandemic. [I] Many employees now have the flexibility to work from home. Various factors contribute to this shift, resulting in both benefits and challenges for individuals and urban environments.

     2. There are several advantages that encourage the adoption of remote work. For example, employees can enjoy a better work-life balance, saving time and money on commuting. [II] This flexibility can result in increased productivity and job satisfaction, as individuals can tailor their work environment to their preferences. Studies have shown that many remote workers report feeling less stressed and more engaged in their tasks, as they can create a workspace that best suits their needs. [III] Many urban areas may see a decline in local businesses that rely on foot traffic, such as cafes and shops, as fewer people commute to work. This decline could lead to job losses and economic challenges for small businesses that thrive on daily visitors.

     3. The rise of remote work also has significant implications for urban living. [IV] With fewer people commuting daily, traffic congestion may decrease, potentially leading to improved air quality in cities. Conversely, this trend can also contribute to a decline in public transportation usage, which could jeopardize funding for these essential services.

     4. To address these evolving dynamics, urban planners and policymakers need to adapt to the changing landscape of work. By promoting mixed-use developments that accommodate both remote work and vibrant community spaces, cities can create environments that support both residents and local businesses. Ultimately, understanding the long-term effects of remote work will be crucial for shaping future urban living.
