Don’t Skip Breakfast

Do you skip breakfast? Millions of people do, and if you are one of them, you are
putting your ability to think and learn at risk. Skipping breakfast can cause you to be hungry,
tired, or grumpy by the middle of the morning. Why is that? First, when you wake up, you
have not eaten for about eight hours. Your body’s fuel, called glucose, is low. Eating
breakfast raises the level of glucose in your brain. Your brain requires a constant flow of
glucose to do mental work.
So eating breakfast will give you a mental edge at school. What if you don’t have
enough time for breakfast or if you are not hungry when you wake up? Having something for
breakfast is better than nothing. Drink some milk or juice. Then catch a nutritious snack later
on in the morning. Yoghurt, dry cereal, cheeses, or fruit are good choices. What if you don’t
like breakfast foods? Then eat healthy foods you do like. Even cold pizza or a fruit smoothie
can power your morning. Any way you look at it, there’s no reason to skip this essential
meal.

South Korea pays lonely people to leave the house

Many people stay at home and do not want to go out. They shut themselves off from
the world and do not want to meet other people. They are recluses. South Korea has an idea
for these people to "re-enter society". It will pay people $500 a month to leave their home.
The payment will be for poor and lonely people aged nine to 24. South Korea's government
said it wanted to help younger people. It said it wants young people to go out. The
government will support people's mental and emotional stability and also their health.
Korea says about 3.1 per cent of young Korean people are reclusive. They have big
difficulties in living a normal life. They shut themselves off from society for many reasons.
These include bullying, exam stress, family problems, technology and social media. The
government said the $500-a-month payment will help these people. The money means the
young people could have fewer mental and health problems. Korea has an ageing society. It
needs young people to work so they can help old people.

Questions number 76-80 refer to this text.

I thought nobody liked me in high school. In fact, I felt largely alone and unnoticed.
Since then, various people from high school have connected with me on Facebook. I’ve now
heard that I was the most popular guy in school and a star athlete. But I didn’t remember it
that way. I was a star athlete, sure, but, since I was a coach’s kid, I never got invited to any
parties, because no one wanted me to tell my father who had been drinking. I only
remembered Friday and Saturday nights spent at home with my mother.
When my wife’s ten-year class reunion became imminent, someone she went to
high school with asked her if she was going. “That’s a hard no,” she replied. “Well, if cool
kids like you aren’t going, I don’t want to go either.” My wife’s response to me: I was cool?!
When?! She was one of the first people invited to her class reunion, and one of the girls she
considered popular reached out to her and told her how much she always admired her in high
school. Just because people don’t tell you they like you or invite you to do things, doesn’t
mean that they don’t, in fact, like you.
