the correct answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.
International Women’s Day, celebrated on March 8 th, is a time to honor women’s progress and
advocate for real change towards gender equality. This day, rooted in a 1980 demonstrations where
15,000 women in New York City stood united for equal rights, better pay, shorter hours, and voting
rights, has grown into a worldwide movement. Clara Zetkin, at a meeting in 1910, suggested a
special day each year to focus on women’s rights, leading to the first International Women’s Day in
1911.
Despite some beliefs that women have equal chances as men, the reality often tells a differents
story. Girls worldwide face more household duties than boys and are more likely to miss out on
school. In many countries, equal education for both genders is not guaranteed, and many girls are
married off young, which can force them to end school early, lead to early pregnancy together with
other health issues, and increase the change of domestic violence.
On International Women’s Day, people participate in activities that raise awareness and call for
gender equality. Wearing purple, a color of women’s rights history, is common. It is also a day when
women are celebrated with gifis and social recognition in some places.
The journey towards full gender equality continues to face challenges. Yet, women’s group
across the globe remain strong and active, with younger women and teenagers adding their voices
and energy to the cause. They are organizing, speaking out, and urging a shift in how we view and
act towards each other regarding gender roles.

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 34 to 40.
Since the birth of the car in 1886, transport in big cities has changed a lot. It is no wonder
many experts think that there will be extraordinary changes in the next few decades.
As technology develops, highways, skylines, subways will be all transformed. Smarter
roadways and highways in cities outfitted with IoT sensors will process all kinds of data in real time
and inform users of the best transport options. Weather, crashes, traffic conditions will be
communicated to users and smart stops will be found everywhere providing renewable energy, green
hydrogen or even greener energy, ensuring efficiency and safety on every highway. Tunnels will
also be a smart choice because of the reduction of traffic congestion. Underground roads will be
built in 3D with a lift system which will take vehicles deep underground and will allow traffic to
attain the greatest speed without intersections.
There will also be innovations in the sky. Air taxis are not a new idea, but in the future they
will be completely environment-friendly. Aviation gasoline will be no longer used. Green energy
will be in place and cost-effective air taxis will enable people to travel from one busy urban city to
another in record time.
New technologies such as AI and the rollout of 5G will pave the way for fully autonomous
innovation. Cars will not be the only thing to go autonomous. Freight trucks, cargo vehicles, air
taxis will all benefit from this technology and that is why the term ‘driver’ will become extinct.
Transport will go green. Electri or hydrogen power will be mainstream. There will still be
issues to slove such as safety, speed and cost, and of course governments will need to make new
traffic laws.

A. Go Autonomous – Go Green B. Go Slow – Go Green
