Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.

Want to feel stronger and more energized? The answer is simple: eat healthy food. A balanced diet fuels your body, keeps you sharp, and protects you against illnesses. Let’s explore why good nutrition is your path to a better life.

Start with a variety of foods. Think of colorful fruits, crisp vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins like fish, and healthy fats from avocados or seeds. These provide vital nutrients. Your body needs vitamin C for healing and calcium for strong bones. Eating a range of foods ensures you get all the essentials for great health.

            Good nutrition also boosts your mind and energy. Fresh foods like berries or almonds improve focus and mood. Processed snacks or sugary drinks, on the other hand, often make you feel sluggish. Balanced meals give you steady energy to power through work, play, or anything else you love doing each day.

Even better, eating well helps prevent serious health issues. Poor diets can lead to problems like heart disease, diabetes, or obesity. Swap fried foods for baked or grilled options, and you’ll lower those risks. Small changes in what you eat build a healthier future, step by step.

To wrap it up, healthy eating transforms your life. Choose nutrient-packed foods to feel your best, both physically and mentally. Try adding a new vegetable to your plate or drinking water instead of soda. Your body will thank you. Start today and embrace the joy of living better through good nutrition.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.

Germs, tiny organisms invisible to the naked eye, can cause illnesses when they enter the body. The main types of germs include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, each affecting health differently. [I] Bacteria, single-celled organisms, may release toxins that lead to infections like strep throat. Viruses, smaller than bacteria, invade cells to multiply, causing diseases such as the flu. Fungi, thriving in warm, moist environments, can result in conditions like athlete’s foot. Parasites, living off other organisms, may cause illnesses like malaria.

The immune system acts as the body’s defense against these invaders. When germs enter, white blood cells, the immune system’s key fighters, identify and attack them. Some white blood cells produce antibodies, which are proteins that target specific germs to neutralize them. Others, like phagocytes, engulf and destroy harmful microbes. [II] This coordinated response helps the body fight infections and recover.

However, germs can sometimes evade the immune system. For example, viruses mutate quickly, making it harder for antibodies to recognize them. This is why flu vaccines are updated yearly. [III] A strong immune system, supported by good nutrition, exercise, and rest, improves the body’s ability to combat germs effectively.

Prevention also plays a vital role. Washing hands, covering coughs, and staying vaccinated reduce the spread of germs. While germs are part of daily life, understanding their types and how the immune system responds empowers people to stay healthy. [IV] By combining personal habits with the body’s natural defenses, individuals can protect themselves from many infections caused by harmful germs.
