Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 39 to 43.

We first learn about loving and caring relationships from our families. Family is defined as a domestic
group of people with some degree of kinship - whether through blood, marriage, or adoption. Ideally,
each child is nurtured, respected, and grows up to care for others and develop strong and healthy
relationships. This does not mean that it is always easy to make and keep friends; it just means that
we share the goal of having strong relationships.
"Family" includes your siblings and parents, as well as relatives who you may not interact with every
day, such as your cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and stepparents. These are probably the people
you are closest to and with whom you spend the most time. Having healthy relationships with your
family members is both important and difficult.
Families in the 21st century come in all shapes and sizes: traditional, single parent, blended (more
than one family together in the same house], and gay and lesbian parents -just to name a few. No
matter the "type" of family you have, there are going to be highs and lows - good times and bad. Many
times, however, families become blocked in their relationships by hurt, anger, mistrust, and confusion.
These are natural and normal, and few families do not have at least a few experiences with them. The
worst time for most families, is during a divorce. By making a few simple changes in the way we look
at the world and deal with other people, it is possible to create happier, more stable relationships.
Families need to be units of mutual caring and support; they can be sources of lifelong strength for
all individuals.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50

People are living longer and, in some parts of the world, healthier lives. This represents one of the
crowning achievements of the last century, but also a significant challenge. Longer lives must be
planned for. Societal aging may affect economic growth and lead to many other issues, including the
sustainability of families, the ability of states and communities to provide resources for older citizens,
and international relations. The Global Burden of Disease, a study conducted by the World Health
Organization, predicts a very large increase in age-related chronic disease in all regions of the world.
Dealing with this will be a significant challenge for all countries’ health services.
Population aging is driven by declines in fertility and improvements in health and longevity. In
more developed countries, falling fertility beginning in the early 1900’s has resulted in current levels
being below the population replacement rate of two live births per woman. Perhaps the most
surprising demographic development of the past 20 years has been the pace of fertility decline in
many less developed countries. In 2006, for example, the total fertility rate was at or below the
replacement rate in 44 less developed countries.
One central issue for policymakers in regard to pension funds is the relationship between the
official retirement age and actual retirement age. Over several decades in the latter part of the 20th
century, many of the more developed nations lowered the official age at which people become fully
entitled to public pension benefits. This was propelled by general economic conditions, changes in
welfare philosophy, and private pension trends. Despite the recent trend toward increased workforce
participation at older ages, a significant gap between official and actual ages of retirement persists.
This trend is emerging in rapidly aging developing countries as well. Many countries already have
taken steps towards much-needed reform of their old-age social insurance programs. One common
reform has been to raise the age at which workers are eligible for full public pension benefits. Another
strategy for bolstering economic security for older people has been to increase the contributions by
workers. Other measures to enhance income for older people include new financial instruments for
private savings, tax incentives for individual retirement savings, and supplemental occupational
pension plans.
As life expectancy increases in most nations, so do the odds of different generations within a
family coexisting. In more developed countries, this has manifested itself as the ‘beanpole family,’ a
vertical extension of family structure characterized by an increase in the number of living generations
within a lineage and a decrease in the number of people within each generation. As mortality rates
continue to improve, more people in their 50’s and 60’s will have surviving parents, aunts, and uncles.
Consequently, more children will know their grandparents and even their great-grandparents,
especially their great-grandmothers. There is no historical precedent for a majority of middle-aged
and older adults having living parents.
