The environment is a vast, linked system that includes the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the
plants and animals around us. It provides essential resources like clean air, water, and fertile soil.
However, our environment is facing serious problems due to human activities. Pollution from factories
and cars contaminates air and water, affecting plants, animals, and humans. Climate change leads to
more extreme weather, like stronger storms, severe floods, year-long droughts, and widespread
flooding which can affect agriculture and lead to food shortages. To help protect our environment,
everyone can make a difference by adopting simple habits. Recycling helps reduce waste and
conserve resources while saving energy by turning off lights and electronics when they’re not in use.
Supporting local and sustainable products, such as food grown without harmful chemicals, also
benefits the environment. Additionally, participating in community clean-up events or tree-planting
activities can help restore natural areas. By understanding the importance of the environment and
taking small steps to care for it, we can all contribute to a healthier planet. Every action counts, and
together we can make a positive impact on our world for ourselves and future generations.

Having healthy teeth is essential. Good teeth help US chew our food properly and also enhance our
appearance. But how does tooth decay start? It begins with a small crack in the enamel of the tooth,
where germs and food particles gather. This decay gradually spreads inside the tooth, and if left
untreated, toxins can enter the bloodstream, making us feel unwell.
To maintain healthy teeth, we should visit the dentist twice a year. The dentist can fill small cavities
before they get worse and ensure our teeth are developing correctly. Unfortunately, many people only
visit the dentist when they already have a toothache.
We should also brush our teeth with fluoride toothpaste twice daily - once after breakfast and once
before bed. Using dental floss after meals helps remove pieces of food from between the teeth.
Additionally, we should eat foods like milk, cheese, fish, whole grains, and fresh fruits and vegetables.
Foods like chocolate, sweets, biscuits, and cakes are harmful, especially when eaten between meals, as
they stick to teeth and lead to decay.
23. Decay begins in the middle of the tooth and spreads outward.
24. We should only see the dentist when we have a toothache.

The environment is very important for all living things. We depend on the environment for clean air,
water, and food. Sadly, many people are harming the environment. For example, pollution from cars
and factories makes the air dirty. This can cause health problems for people and animals. Another
problem is deforestation. When trees are cut down, animals lose their homes, and the soil can become
less fertile.
To protect the environment, everyone can take small steps. One simple action is to recycle paper,
plastic, and glass. Recycling helps reduce waste and saves resources. Also, planting trees helps restore
forests and provides homes for animals. It is important to use energy wisely. Turning off lights when
they are not needed and using public transportation can help reduce pollution.
By working together, we can make a big difference in keeping our planet clean and healthy for future
generations.

The Role of Technology in Education
Technology has revolutionized education in numerous ways, fundamentally altering how students
learn and how teachers instruct. Digital tools such as computers, tablets, and educational apps have
introduced interactive and engaging elements into the learning process, making it more dynamic and
appealing to students. These tools allow students to engage with multimedia content, simulations, and
games that enhance understanding and retention of complex concepts. Furthermore, the wide variety
of online resources available today provides access to a limitless supply of information, enabling
students to go beyond the confines of traditional textbooks and dive deeper into subjects of interest. In
addition, technology facilitates remote learning, making education accessible to students around the
globe, regardless of geographic location or circumstances. Furthermore, tools like Moodle and Google
Classroom allow educators to track progress, provide feedback, and modify lessons based on
individual student needs. Despite these advancements, educators must strike a balance between
technology use and face-to-face interactions. While digital tools offer a wealth of benefits, fostering
critical thinking abilities through personal interactions remains essential.
In conclusion, when used thoughtfully, technology greatly enriches the educational experience by
providing diverse and flexible learning opportunities that cater to the needs of modern learners.
23. Technology has only a limited impact on education.
24. Educational apps can make learning more interactive.

The Importance of Hydration
Staying hydrated is one of the most important habits you can develop for maintaining good health and
well-being. Water plays a key role in numerous bodily functions, making it essential for overall health.
Proper hydration helps regulate body temperature, which is crucial in preventing overheating,
especially during physical activity or in hot weather. In addition to this, drinking enough water helps
to keep joints lubricated, allowing for smooth and pain-free movement. Beyond these benefits, water
acts as a critical vehicle for transporting essential nutrients throughout the body. It ensures that
vitamins and minerals reach the cells that need them. The amount of water each person needs can vary
significantly based on factors such as age, weight, and the intensity of physical activity. For example,
individuals who exercise regularly or live in warmer climates may require more water to compensate
for the fluids lost through sweat. While a common guideline suggests drinking eight glasses of water a
day, it’s important to recognize that hydration needs differ from person to person. Listening to your
body and responding to its signals - like thirst - can be a better approach to staying hydrated. Ignoring
these signals can lead to dehydration with symptoms such as headaches or dizziness. Therefore,
maintaining hydration is essential for keeping your body functioning properly and supporting overall
well-being.
23. Dehydration can cause symptoms like headaches.
24. The passage suggests that everyone NEED exactly eight glasses of water daily.

In the past, traveling was nothing less than a dangerous adventure. People had no means of transport
as they do now. They faced all sorts of dangers such as bad weather, wild beasts, and robbers.
Therefore, most people did not like to go away from their villages. Only those who were adventurous
set out on a long journey.
When man succeeded in training the four-foot animals like the horse and the camel, traveling became

carry very heavy loads from one place to another.

up a railway network. A small sum of money is required to go from one corner of the country to
