3 b. Where advantages do emerge – delayed dementia onset, for instance – they likely reflect a lifetime of cognitive engagement. c. We encourage schools to support heritage languages without dressing pedagogy in neuromyths. d. While executivecontrol boosts are uneven across tasks, bilingual experience robustly enriches identity and social navigation. e. Accordingly, our district will expand duallanguage pathways and measure outcomes beyond reactiontime paradigms. (Adapted from The New Yorker, “Is Bilingualism Really an Advantage?”) A. a – d – b – c – e B. d – a – b – e – c C. a – b – d – e – c D. d – b – a – c – e Question 17. a. Although the early twentiethcentury trench lines pitted genetic determinists against learning theorists, the field has long since converged on interactionism. b. What remains contested is not whether genes and environments coact, but how – through heritability estimates, selection lines, epigenetic marks, and even microbiome signalling that together script behavioural variance. c. Because methylation can be experiencesensitive and occasionally heritable, nurture sometimes writes annotations that later look like nature. d. Hence, when modern ethology quantifies variation, it now triangulates pedigreebased models with QTL and GWAS maps whose loci, in turn, are conditioned by developmental context. e. In sum, arguments worth having today concern mechanisms and leverage points – where interventions should target: genomes, epigenomes, or environments – rather than a binary that never fit complex organisms.

When storms sever ferry lines and rains turn roads into rivers, improvised flotillas ferry families to higher ground. In such moments, humanitarian corridors are negotiated at speed, and municipal gyms become dormitories overnight. Yet the choreography rarely keeps pace with the scale of displacement. Camps expand, then congeal into semipermanent neighborhoods, (18) _______. Even donor states, whose pledges make headlines, often disburse funds late, (19) _______. Because the crises recur, the ledger of responsibility becomes as contested as any frontier. Some politicians warn that, were entry to be more orderly, social cohesion would endure; others counter that deterrence breeds only deadlier crossings. The data are sobering: children born in transit grow up learning to queue before they learn to vote. In host cities, police, teachers, and clinicians – (20) _______ – find themselves administering asylum, health checks, and schooling while their own budgets shrink. A longer horizon clarifies what emergency optics obscure. Only when the legal architecture recognizes protracted displacement as normal rather than aberrant can planning become honest, (21) _______. Where this reframing has occurred, rental guarantees, mobile schooling, and work permits have reduced precarity without stoking backlash. But where the fiction of shortterm return prevails, the tent becomes both home and border: porous against storms, impermeable to belonging. And seldom is capacity strengthened in time, (22) _______. (Adapted from VnExpress International, “Are EVs actually safer than fuel-powered cars in floods?”) Question 18. A. many of them which, being sprawling beyond their zoning, quiet ossify into informal economies B. much of whom, having sprawled beyond its zoning, quietly ossifies into informal economies
