In 2012, Anxiety UK conducted a survey on social media use and its effects on emotions. The survey found that 53% of participants said social media sites had changed their behavior. Those who said their lives had been worsened by using social media reported feeling less confident when they compared their achievements against their friends. Furthermore, the survey revealed that two thirds of participants reported difficulty relaxing and sleeping after they used the sites, while 55% said they felt "worried or uncomfortable" when they were unable to log onto their social media accounts. In a more recent study, social interaction on social media sites, specifically Facebook, may have a negative impact on face-to-face encounters for individuals who already have high levels of anxiety. Another concern regarding social media use is cyber bullying. As stated earlier in this feature, the majority of social networking users are under the age of 30. Most of these are adolescents. According to Enough is Enough (EIE) - an organization that aims to make Internet use safer for children and families - 95% of teenagers who use social media have witnessed forms of cyber bullying on social networking sites. In addition, 33% have been victims of cyber bullying. But Dr. Rauch believes it is not purely the use of social media that is getting out of control. It is more on our need to be electronically connected at all times. Dr. Rauch further says, “I would encourage any parent to explore ways to encourage or even mandate 'off' time, not just away from social media sites, but away from the devices. That is probably good advice for all of us." Although many studies point to the negative impacts of social media on mental health and well-being, some researchers say they could have the opposite effect. Social networking sites could be a useful tool in identifying individuals with mental health issues. Some studies have suggested that social media use may even improve mental health and well-being. Last year, Medical News Today reported that Facebook activity may be an indicator of a person's psychological health. It was found that people who shared fewer pictures on the site communicated less frequently, and had a longer profile and fewer Facebook friends were more likely to experience social anhedonia. This is the inability to encounter happiness from activities that are normally enjoyable, such as talking to friends. However, another study suggests that using social media may even spread happiness. Overall, it appears that the exact effects of social media on our mental health and well-being remain to be seen. But one thing is certain; our use of social networking sites is unlikely to fade anytime soon. Which of the following shows the most relevant analogy between social media and mental health discussed in passage? A. breakfast and energy B. aeroplane and pilot C. weather and feeling D. house and window E. sports and fitness

As spring arrives, albeit quite late this year for many of us, we notice the changing of seasons not only by the weather, but also by a host of natural events. Depending on where you live, the flowers may poke through the snow, the birds may be back, or the cherry trees may bloom. There is an orderly sequence of events that seem to occur, with various spring flowers appearing in order, red maple buds bursting into new layers, or the old lilac by the barn scenting the air. This seasonal cycle of natural phenomena is called phenology. Global climate change appears to be interfering with the phenology of many species, at the very heart of species interactions. In temperate regions like northern half the United States, there is comparatively little biological activity in winter. Most plants are dormant, and so are the insects feeding on them. In turn, animal that rely on these insects, such as bats and birds, are hibernating or spending the cold months in more southerly locations. Ectotherms like reptiles and amphibians, which period constrains all the growing, breeding, and dispersing activities that plants and animals do to a short favorable window. That is what makes spring so vibrant, with plants flowering and putting on new growth, insects emerging and breeding, and birds flying back to take advantage of this short-lived bounty. The onsets of each of these activities add up to so many phonological markers. Different organism respond to different cues to initiate seasonal activities. Many plants will start growing leaves again after a set period of dormancy, which very roughly dictates the leaf-out window. Cues that more precisely determine when the buds break can be soil temperature, air temperature, or water availability. Similarly, temperature cues can promote the beginning of insect activity. Day length itself can be the operative trigger for some seasonal events. It is only when there are a sufficient number of daylight hours that reproductive hormones will be produced in many bird species. The most energy-demanding period in the life of most animals is when they reproduce. For that reason, it is to their advantage to coincide breeding (and for many, the raising of young) during a period when food is most abundant. Caterpillars should hatch just as the young tender leaves of oak tree emerge, before they harden and become less nutritious. Breeding songbirds need to time the hatching of their young just during that peak in caterpillar activity, so they can take advantage of this rich source of protein to feed their offspring. Many species have evolved to exploit peaks in resource availability, so all these seemingly independent phonological events are indeed part of a complex web of precise interactions. Disturbances in seasonal events can have profound effects on ecosystems. Based on the passage, it can be hypothesized that reproductive hormones in many bird species will not be produced if... a. there is an inadequate number of daylight hours b. seasons as well as local weather change a bit c. those feeding on insects are hibernating d. no orderly sequence of events occur e. global climate change happen

Credit and credit cards are special types of loans. When you use a credit card to buy things, instead of paying for them immediately, each purchase goes onto a big list. At the end of the month, the credit card company adds everything on the list together and send you a bill for the total amount of money you spent that month. The special feature of credit cards is that you do not have to pay back the entire bill right away. Imagine you spent $5,000 last month. When you get the bill, you (might) only have to Use your 51,000 to pay the bill, but you still have all 5,000 worth of stuff you bought. This functions as a loan because the credit card company has, in around-about way, loaned you that leftover $4.1100. As with a loan, you will still have to pay that $4,000 back (eventually), and the credit card company will charge you interest on it. Therefore, in the end, you might owe $4.500 ( plus the $1,000 you used to pay the minimum part of the original bill). 69. Based on the passage, credit cards provide a service that makes it possible for customers not to pay the .. of their purchases. (A) Fund (B) Loan (C) Amount (D) Half credit (E) Rounded interest

This is recorded as the highest of any nation as shown by the FIS 2019 Retail Global Payment Report last week. The report surveyed online and offline retail payment patterns of people in 16 counties, including Japan, China, the US and the UK, covering 80 percent of global retail e-commerce and 60 percent of physical transactions. The average of all nations surveyed was 9,7 percent. The report showed that digital wallets continue to grow in usage, particularly in China. Chinese shoppers us digital wallets in record numbers, accounting for 64 percent of e-commerce and 40 percent of in-store payments. 69 It is reported that China the global monad market in e-wallet usage compared to other countries.
