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.
Self-organized learning is an educational approach where individuals take charge of their own
learning process. Instead of relying solely on teachers or formal instruction, learners independently
identify their goals, seek out resources, and evaluate their progress. This method has become increasingly
popular with the growth of the internet and access to vast amounts of information. By exploring topics of
personal interest, learners often develop a deeper understanding and stronger motivation to succeed.
A critical element of self-organized learning is curiosity. When learners ask meaningful questions
and explore answers independently, they not only acquire knowledge but also develop problem-solving
and critical-thinking skills. For instance, students researching environmental issues might learn scientific

Self-organized learning aligns with the demands of the modern world, where adaptability and
continuous learning are essential. By cultivating the ability to learn independently, individuals can keep
pace with rapid technological advancements and changing job markets. Ultimately, this approach
empowers learners to take control of their education and shape their futures.

Time is one of our most valuable resources, yet it often feels like there’s never enough of it.
With work, school, family responsibilities, and personal goals all competing for attention, managing time
effectively can seem overwhelming. However, learning to take control of your schedule is essential for
reducing stress and achieving balance in life. By adopting a few key strategies, anyone can turn time
into an ally rather than an enemy.
The first step in mastering time management is prioritization. Not all tasks are equally important,

realistic expectations for yourself is key to staying productive without feeling overwhelmed.
Another effective strategy is time blocking, which involves dividing your day into specific
periods for different activities. For example, dedicate an hour in the morning to focused work, reserve
