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

A two-year study by a European sustainability research group has examined how the rise of fast fashion is changing the way people buy and discard clothing. The researchers tracked the shopping habits of more than three thousand consumers across several countries and compared them with data collected a decade earlier.

The study found that the average shopper now buys nearly sixty percent more items of clothing each year than in the previous decade, yet keeps each garment for only half as long before throwing it away. Cheap production costs, rapid turnover of new styles and constant promotion on social media, the researchers argue, have encouraged many consumers to treat clothing as disposable rather than durable.

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

For decades, travelling beyond Earth's atmosphere was a privilege reserved almost exclusively for professionally trained astronauts sponsored by national space agencies. That began to change at the turn of the twenty-first century, when a wealthy American engineer paid a Russian space agency millions of dollars to join a mission to the International Space Station, becoming the first paying passenger to travel to orbit.

Orbital tourism, in which passengers spend days or weeks circling the planet, has remained far more expensive and technically demanding, largely because it requires far more fuel, life-support equipment and crew training than a brief suborbital hop. Even so, several private citizens have now spent extended periods aboard orbiting spacecraft, some conducting scientific experiments that professional astronauts had previously carried out.

Industry analysts predict that space tourism will remain a niche market for wealthy travellers for at least another decade, but they also note that every major transport industry, from commercial aviation to ocean cruising, began in a similarly exclusive way before costs eventually fell. Whether space tourism follows the same path, they argue, will depend largely on how quickly rocket technology continues to improve.
