High school students may improve their science grades by learning about the personal struggles and failed experiments of great scientists such as Albert Einstein and Marie Curie. In one study, 402 students from four New York City high schools in low-income areas of the Bronx and Harlem were divided into three groups. The control group read an 800-word 5 typical science textbook description about the great accomplishments of Einstein, Curie and Michael Faraday. Another group read about those scientists' personal struggles, including Einstein's flight from Nazi Germany to avoid persecution as a Jew. The third group of students read about the scientist's intellectual struggles, such as Curie's persistence despite a string of failed 10 experiments. The struggle stories included actions. the scientists took to overcome these hurdles. Students who read about the scientists' intellectual or personal struggles were more likely to say the famous scientists were people, like themselves, who had to overcome failure and obstacles to succeed. Students in the control group more often believed the great scientists 15 had innate talent and a special aptitude for science. The study suggests that science textbooks should highlight the struggles of great scientists and provide more vivid narrative descriptions of the techniques that scientists used to overcome chal lenges. "Many kids do not see science as part of their everyday lives. We teach them important content, but we never bring it to life;' said the lead researcher Xiaodong 20 Lin-Siegler, PhD. "Our science curriculum is impersonal, and kids have a hard time relating to it because they just -see a long list of facts that they have to memorize”. The word hurdles in line 11 in the passage means .... (A) actions (B) failures (C) obstacles (D) experiments (E) persecution

This finding implies that the high level of consumption of added sugars among teenagers may result in lower levels of high density lipoprotein levels (HDL), the good cholesterol, and higher levels oftriglycerides and low density lipoproteins (LDL), the bad cholesterol. "This is the first study about the association of added sugars and the indicators of heart disease risk in adolescents:' said Jean Welsh, study author and post-doctoral fellow at Emory University in Atlanta, Ga. "The higher consumers of added sugar have unfavorable cholesterol levels. The concern is long-term exposure would place them at risk for heart disease later in adulthood”. Teenagers with the highest levels of added sugar consumption at more than 30 percent of total energy had 49.5 milligrams/deci liter (mg/dl) compared to 54 mg/dl of HDL levels in those with the lowest levels of added sugar consumption - a 9 percent difference. Previous studies indicate that the largest contributors of added sugars to the diet are surgery beverages such as sodas, fruit drinks, and teas, Welsh said. The study included dietary recall from one 24-hour period that researchers merged with sugar content data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Researchers estimated cardiovascular risks by added sugar consumption of less than 10 percent up to more than 30 percent of daily total energy. Two days of dietary data were used among a subsample of 646 adolescents. The key findings remained consistent. Those with higher intake of added sugar had higher LD[ levels of 94.3 mg/dl compared to 86.7 in those with the lowest levels, a 9 percent difference. Triglyceride levels in those with the highest consumption were 79 mg/ dl compared to 71 .7 mg/dl among the lowest, a 10 percent difference. Overweight or obese adolescents with the highest level of added sugar consumption had increased signs of insulin resistance. The researchers used cross-sectional data so they cannot know if added sugar intake caused the differing cholesterol levels, only that they are linked. They also assessed the diet using one 24-hour recall of intake, which may not reflect on a person's usual intake What is the best summary of the passage? (A) High levels of added sugars may lead to low level of good cholesterol, high level of bad cholesterol, and triglyceride as well as insulin intolerance, especially in obese teenagers. Based on 24-hour dietary recall, this study cannot determine the causal relation added sugar and different cholesterol levels. (B) Experts have found that there is a link between the level of added sugar people consume and their levels of cholesterol. This can be harmful in the long term as it might lead to heart diseases. Moreover, obese or overweight children with the highest level of added sugars show signs of insulin resistance. (C) Astudywas conducted to find out the correlation between added sugar and cholesterol levels. High level of sugar consumption leadstohigh level of bad cholesterol and triglyceride. Therefore, people should not consume these kinds of drink too frequently. (D) A 24-hour dietary recall was used to assess the effects of added sugars. However, there are still two limitations. First, it cannot determine the connection between added sugars and differing cholesterol levels. Second, the recall may not represent the usual daily intake (E) High level of added sugars may lead to a high level of triglyceride. Furthermore, among teenagers with over weight obesity cases, there can be insulin resistance. The largest sources of added sugars are surgary beverages. It is then important not to have surgary beverages too much.

Considering the harmful environmental effects produced by pollution, overpopulation, and depletion of natural resources, numerous scholars and public officials have called for increased urgency in motivating people to engage in pro-environmental behaviors. One significant way of meeting such calls involves our behavior as consumers. For example, people often have the option of switching from conventional products to energy-efficient or reusable"green" products. Yet, while green options are becoming more widely available, many barriers to change remain. For instance, people are notoriously reluctant to change familiar patterns of behavior, and making a switch to green behaviors often necessitates making sacrifices (e.g., paying more for a less effective product). Based on research on energy conservation in the wake of the 1 970s energy crisis, researchers have continued to investigate strategies that promote conservation behaviors. However, they need to consider the underlying motives for conservation in order to develop an effective strategy. In fact, those motives have been identified. Each of them suggests different strategies for stimulating conservation. Therefore, public officials should choose one best strategy to converse environment. Accord ing to an environmental concern perspective, people are assumed to engage in conservation primarily because they, at some level, basically care about the security of the planet and its inhabitants. To motivate green behavior from this perspective, an effective strategy involves better informing people about the plight of the environment. Accordingly, information campaigns about the dangerous state of the planet should lead people to behave in a pro-environmental fashion, even if going green requires some sacrifice on the part of consumers. In contrast, a rational economic perspective suggests that conservation is primarily determined by economic reasons. As a result, an effective way to motivate people to go green is by making green products cheaper, more efficient, and providing consumers with financial incentives (e.g., tax breaks) to buy them. The motives related to environmental concern and economic advantage c•an certainly spur conservation. (Adapted from: Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) Which of the following obviously shows the author's false idea in the passage? (A) Researchers have co ntinued to investigate strategies that promote conservation behaviors. (B) In the economic perspective, conservation is primarily determined by economic reasons. (C) One significant way of meeting such calls involves our behavior as consumers. (D) Public officials should choose one best strategy to conserve environment. (E) Each of the sugg ests different strategies for purring conservation
