Read the text below and answer the question.
Rice is a staple food for a large part of the world’s population, providing more than one fifth of the calories
consumed worldwide, making it the second-most-consumed cereal grain. The rice plant grows about 2 to 5
feet high and is a flowering plant.
Rice is composed of the grain and husk. The grain is mainly used as food, but the vitamins, including Bcomplex, are found in the husk. Most people prefer to eat polished rice without the husk, but this can create
a vitamin deficiency because polished rice doesn’t have many vitamins.
Much of the rice that we eat comes from southeastern Asia and grows in all countries that have a warm and
moist climate, including India, China, and Japan. The traditional method for cultivating rice is to flood the
fields after planting the seedlings. This simple method requires planning and maintenance of the water
supply, but reduces the growth of weeds and deters vermin. Flooding is not mandatory, but all other methods
of irrigation require more effort in weed and pest control and different methods of fertilization.
COOK, Ann, Grammar: American Accent Training – 2009, Page 208.
As a complex carb, it ___ the primary source of energy ____ over half of the world's people.
Depending ___ the strain of rice, it can contain decent amounts ___ fibre, protein, vitamin B, iron and
manganese. This means it can play a vital role against malnutrition:

TEXT 2
People who read books are nicer than those who
don’t, study finds.
People often think that, yes, books make you smarter
but at the same time people who read a lot struggle
when it comes to social relationships. A new study
reveals that this is not true. In fact, reading could
actually make you a _____, _____ person. It also
makes you act in a _____ acceptable manner.
The study, conducted by Kingston University in
London, involved 124 participants. Participants were
quizzed on their preferences for books, TV, and plays.
They were also tested on interpersonal skills including
how much they considered other people’s feelings
and whether they acted to help others.
The study found that those who preferred books were
more likely to act in a socially acceptable manner
compared to those who preferred watching TV. Those
who preferred watching TV, on the other hand, came
across as less friendly and less understanding of
others’ views.
However, not all types of books tend to have the same
effect. The study shows that the type of literature you
choose also has a huge impact on your emotional
intelligence. In particular, the study revealed that
fiction fans showed more positive social behavior
while readers of drama and romance novels were
found to be the most empathic. In the same vein, fans
of experimental books were most able to see things
from alternative perspectives, and readers who
favored comedy fans were best at relating to others.
“Exposure to fiction relates to a range of empathetic
abilities […] Engaging with fictional prose and comedy
in particular could be key to enhancing people’s
empathetic abilities,” said the researchers during
the British Psychological Society conference in
Brighton.
It should be borne in mind, however, that the study did
not prove cause-and-effect. It may very well be that
nicer people are more drawn to reading books.

Peru: Parents
arrested for sexually abusing baby, selling images
19 May 2021 - Specialized
officers across four continents raced to remove the child from harm.
Authorities in Peru have arrested a couple accused of
producing sexual abuse material of their two-month old baby, following an
international effort to save the child from harm. In early April, specialized
investigators in Canada and Australia contacted INTERPOL after identifying a
user who was not only sharing abusive images, but also offering to produce
additional material in exchange for payment. Investigators worked to gather
data on the suspect, who had been active on Darknet forums since 2014. Further
analysis showed that the same user had recently sought advice on child and
organ trafficking. [...]

A
robust Gender Parity Strategy
In 2018, building on the United Nations Secretary-General's
System-Wide Gender Parity Strategy, the Department of Peace Operations
developed a Uniformed Personnel Gender Parity Strategy with clear objectives,
targets and benchmarks, along with reporting and monitoring mechanisms to
achieve appropriate gender balance.
Under this strategy, by the year 2028, the UN Police Division
is committed to recruiting at least 30% women police officers in professional
positions in the field (20% in Formed Police Units and 30% as Individual Police
Officers) and 35% at UN Headquarters. To achieve these goals, the UN Police
Division will continue to engage Member States and seek the support of gender
champion countries.
The UN Police Division will also continue to identify
opportunities for women police officers in missions while ensuring that gender
perspectives are mainstreamed in all policing activities and equal
opportunities are afforded to women in police at all levels.

Instruction: For question, read the passage below.
How to become a firefighter
Those who fight fires are trained to do their job anywhere – from forests to rural areas to urban high-rises. Firefighters
work first and foremost to protect lives, and then they turn their attention to protecting property. Some firefighters
choose to work their way up the ladder, so to speak, starting with volunteer work at their local firehouse, coupled with
their high school diploma. Those who want to advance up the ranks faster can turn to a fire science degree that will
prepare them for responsibilities at the state or federal level. Understanding different types of firefighting careers and
what each entails is the first step to choosing the right path.
What Does a Firefighter Do?
Firefighters show up at the scene of a fire or emergency and rely on advanced tools and equipment to handle the situation.
That's a very broad overview; now let's get down to the details.
Firefighter Careers Basics
Firefighters receive expert training that prepares them to handle a variety of emergency situations. Though fighting fires
are what they are best known for (as the name implies), firefighters also handle medical emergencies, rescuing and
treating the injured, educating the public and more. Their work often requires them to be on call at all hours; some
respond to calls from their private homes, while others stay in the firehouse during their shifts in order to respond to
calls much faster, especially in urban areas.

The following text refers to the question.
There have been 18 opioid-related deaths in Nova Scotia so far this year
Paramedics in Nova Scotia used naloxone to save 165 people from opioid overdoses in 2018 and 188 people in 2019. In 2020,
102 people were saved as of July 31.
Eight years ago, Matthew Bonn watched his friend turn blue and become deathly quiet as fentanyl flooded his body. Bonn
jumped in, performing rescue breathing until paramedics arrived. That was the first time Bonn fought to keep someone alive during
an overdose.
But it wouldn't be his last. Over the years, he tried more dangerous ways to snap people out of an overdose.
"I remember doing crazy things like throwing people in bathtubs, or, you know, giving them cocaine. As we know now, that
doesn't help," said Bonn, a harm-reduction advocate in Halifax. "But ... in those panic modes, you try to do whatever you can to keep
that person alive."
This was before naloxone – a drug that can reverse an opioid overdose – became widely available to the public. In 2017, the
Nova Scotia government made kits with the drug available for free at pharmacies.
Whether used by community members or emergency crews, naloxone has helped save hundreds of lives in the province.
Matthew Bonn is a program co-ordinator with the Canadian Association of People Who Use Drugs, and a current drug user
himself.
Almost every other day in Nova Scotia, paramedics and medical first responders in the province use the drug to reverse an
opioid overdose, according to Emergency Health Services (EHS).

Eight years ago, Matthew Bonn watched his friend turn blue and become deathly quiet as fentanyl flooded his body. Bonn
jumped in, performing rescue breathing until paramedics arrived. That was the first time Bonn fought to keep someone alive during
an overdose.
But it wouldn't be his last. Over the years, he tried more dangerous ways to snap people out of an overdose.
"I remember doing crazy things like throwing people in bathtubs, or, you know, giving them cocaine. As we know now, that
doesn't help," said Bonn, a harm-reduction advocate in Halifax. "But ... in those panic modes, you try to do whatever you can to keep
that person alive."
This was before naloxone – a drug that can reverse an opioid overdose – became widely available to the public. In 2017, the
Nova Scotia government made kits with the drug available for free at pharmacies.
Whether used by community members or emergency crews, naloxone has helped save hundreds of lives in the province.
Matthew Bonn is a program co-ordinator with the Canadian Association of People Who Use Drugs, and a current drug user
himself.
Almost every other day in Nova Scotia, paramedics and medical first responders in the province use the drug to reverse an
opioid overdose, according to Emergency Health Services (EHS).
