China’s private tutoring sector is experiencing a cautious but noticeable revival three years after the government’s sweeping “double reduction” campaign sharply curtailed after-school education services. According to executives, parents, and analysts interviewed by Reuters, regulators are now adopting a more flexible stance. There has been no formal acknowledgement of a change in policy. But there is now tacit consent from policymakers to allow the tutoring industry to grow. This more permissive environment appears to align with the government’s broader economic priorities, especially its need to stimulate job creation and stabilize a flagging economy.
[I] Tutoring companies are once again advertising in-person and online classes, recruiting teachers, and receiving more consistent regulatory guidance. [II] New instructions from national ministries specify which types of off-campus training are permissible, with a particular focus on non-core subjects such as arts, sports, and general thinking skills. [III] Simultaneously, inspections have become less aggressive, and communication between companies and local officials has improved, shifting from punitive measures to a more compliance- oriented approach. [IV]
Importantly, the industry’s reappearance is not solely the result of easing regulations. Throughout the crackdown, tutoring never fully disappeared. Many providers adapted by redesigning their courses, operating under adjusted subject labels, shifting to individualized formats, or targeting extracurricular fields that remained legal. Parents, particularly in major cities, continued to seek supplementary education because academic pressure and university competition persisted. This acted as a quiet current beneath the surface, supporting the sector even during its most restricted period.
Even with renewed growth, the industry’s recovery remains tightly controlled. Officials maintain that tutoring must not reproduce high-pressure academic environments or impose heavy financial burdens on families. As a result, companies must expand carefully to avoid triggering renewed scrutiny. Analysts note that the government views the regulated revival as potentially useful for addressing youth unemployment and supporting innovation in the broader education sector. Consequently, China’s private tutoring industry appears to be entering a new phase characterized by measured growth, clearer oversight, and continued negotiation between market needs and state expectations.
Question 23. The word “curtailed” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ____________.
A. facilitated B. constrained C. intensified D. mitigated

Question 25. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 2?

B. Tutoring companies are resuming operation with guidance from authorities and inspections emphasising adherence to regulations.

C. Private tutoring companies are able to develop quickly under less strict oversight, however the risk of regulation still remains.
D. The government’s regulatory approach balances market demand and social control, showing a strategy of measured intervention.

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 33 to 40.
The world is producing plastic at an explosive rate. Since 1960, plastics production has surged almost 100- fold. By one measure, the weight of all plastic ever produced is now greater than all land and marine animals combined. On top of that, more than half of plastic products are designed to be used only once, according to the United Nations. Think hotel shampoo mini-bottles, single-use tooth-flossing picks, all those at-home Covid tests.
And once discarded, plastic hangs around for centuries, breaking into ever smaller particles that spread far and wide and can carry toxic substances. These microplastics have been found in drinking water, in table salt, in rainfall, and, recently, in human blood.
Underpinning the surge has been the abundant global supply of oil and gas, the raw materials for plastics. As the world tries to combat climate change by burning fewer fossil fuels, plastic is set to become an increasingly important business for oil and gas companies. Producing the plastic itself creates planet-warming greenhouse gases and other pollutants. In 2015, plastics created 4.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, one recent study estimated, or more than all the world’s airplanes combined.
Plastic makers have promoted recycling as a way to justify continued production, said Carroll Muffett, who heads the Center for International Environmental Law. “But in reality, only a tiny fraction of those plastics are economically recyclable,” he said. “You can’t recycle your way out of this problem."
Question 33. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in paragraph 1 as examples of plastic products?
A. hotel shampoo mini-bottles B. at-home Covid tests
C. shopping bags D. tooth-flossing picks
Question 34. The word “discarded” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ____________.
A. thrown away B. set off C. taken up D. turned down
Question 35. Which of the following sentences best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?
A. The dwindling supply of oil and gas for plastic manufacturing has worried people worldwide.
B. The rapid growth in plastic production is greatly facilitated by the easy access to oil and gas.
C. The increasing use of raw materials to produce plastics is attributable to their attractive price.
D. Global plastic consumption has led to the large-scale exploitation of fossil fuel resources.
Question 36. The word “itself” in paragraph 4 refers to ____________.
A. gas B. business C. oil D. plastic
Question 37. The word “tiny” in paragraph 4 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ____________.
A. substantial B. magnificent C. negligible D. ordinary
Question 38. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. The total weight of all plastic produced until now is enormous.
B. In 2015, plastics emitted more greenhouse gases than all airplanes.
C. Plastic companies are trying to cut their production via recycling.
D. Harmful plastic particles can be found in various environments.
Question 39. Which paragraph emphasises the urgency of finding better solutions?
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 2 D. Paragraph 4
Question 40. Which paragraph contains a reference to the environmental persistence of plastic?
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 1 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 3
