Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer
to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
In today's world, doctors utilize what we all know as X-rays to diagnose all sorts of problems: a broken
bone, pneumonia, heart failure, and much, much more. But not so long ago, these problems could not be
identified without cutting a person open.
Wilhelm Roentgen, Professor of Physics in Wurzburg, Bavaria, accidentally discovered X-rays in 1895
while testing whether cathode rays could pass through glass. His cathode tube was covered in heavy black
paper, so he was surprised when he saw green light rays escaping and projecting onto a nearby fluorescent
screen. Because he did not know what these rays were, he called them 'X,' meaning 'unknown,' rays.
Through experimentation, Roentgen quickly found that X-rays would also pass through human tissue,
making the bones and tissue beneath visible. News of his discovery spread worldwide, and within a year,
doctors in Europe and the United States were using X-rays to locate gun shots, bone fractures, kidney stones
and swallowed objects. These special rays became so ubiquitous that even shoe stores offered free X-rays so
that customers could see the bones in their feet.
Today, X-rays are still considered one of the most important discoveries in medicine, as they paved
the way for scientists to develop a broad spectrum of imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, echocardiography, and many others.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer
to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Most of us hate having tough conversations, especially those who are scared of disagreements. [II]
However, avoiding or delaying difficult talks with others can hurt relationships and create negative outcomes in
the long run. [III] It may not feel natural at first, but you can still learn to dive into tough talks by adjusting
your thoughts. [IV]
First, begin from curiosity and respect, and stop worrying about being liked. While it's natural to want
to be liked, it is more important to enter the conversation with an open attitude and a true desire to learn.
Even when a conversation is difficult, it can still remain mutually supportive - treat the other person's point of
view with genuine respect and interest, and they will likely do the same, and this will form the foundation for
effective communication.
People who are afraid of conflict often spend a huge amount of time mentally rewording their thoughts.
However, thinking too much about what to say can create unnecessary pressure. Instead, focus on listening. For
example, if a team member is not performing well, approach them with questions like "Can you tell me about
the challenges you're facing?" Then, listen and gather as much detail as possible. Your genuine attention will
encourage them to elaborate on their thoughts. In addition, you can repeat what they said to confirm that you
understand them correctly and ask follow-up questions, but only if appropriate, to learn more about their
perspective.
Another important thing: Never delay. Instead of putting off a conversation for "the near
future", tackle it as soon as you can. Of course, it is helpful to plan the general outline of what you want to
convey and the outcome you desire from the conversation in advance, but remember: the essential step that truly
leads to change is having it and figure out how to move on from there. After endlessly practicing conversations
in your head, actually engaging in a two-way conversation instead of waiting can be very refreshing and
productive.
Finally, always expect a positive outcome. You'll always have a hard time if you keep going into a conflict
telling yourself, "This is going to be an absolute debacle in the end". Instead, focus on the long-term gains that
the conversation will create for the relationship. When your attention is focused on positive results and benefits,
it will make your thinking process and inner dialogue more constructive. As a result, you will grow more
comfortable while resolving any difficult situation.

Question 32: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. Since wanting to be liked is a typical behavior, it is better to concentrate on what you already know instead

C. It is common for people to desire approval, but it is far more important to approach conversations with an

your thoughts clearly.
