Read the following passage about the urban shift 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 6 to 15.
[I] Violent online content is now “unavoidable” for children in the UK. [II] Research from the media watchdog has found that many kids first exposed to it when they are still in primary school. [III] They included videos of local school and street fights shared in group chats, as well as extreme graphic violence with gang- related content. [IV]
Children were aware that even more extreme material was available in the deeper recesses of the web, but had not sought it out themselves, the report concluded. The findings prompted the NSPCC to accuse tech platforms of sitting back and “ignoring their duty of care to young users.” Rani Govender, a senior policy officer for child safety online, said: “It is deeply concerning that children are telling us that being unintentionally exposed to violent content has become a normal part of their online lives. It is unacceptable that algorithms are continuing to push out harmful content that we know can have pernicious mental and emotional consequences for young people.”
The research, conducted by the Family, Kids and Youth agency, was part of Ofcom’s preparation for its new responsibilities under the Online Safety Act, passed last year, which handed the regulator the power to crack down on social networks that are failing to protect their users, particularly children.
Gill Whitehead, Ofcom’s online safety group director, said: “Children should not feel that seriously harmful content is an unavoidable part of their lives online. Today's research sends a powerful message to tech firms that now is the time to act so they are ready to meet their child protection duties under new online safety laws. Later this spring, we will consult on how we expect the industry to make sure that children can enjoy an age-appropriate, safer online experience.”
Almost every leading tech firm was among those named by the children and young people interviewed by Ofcom, but Snapchat and Meta’s apps Instagram and WhatsApp came up most frequently.

A. Children have chosen to ignore the existence of violent content online.

B. Children should embrace the idea that harmful content is a regular part of their online interactions.

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 following questions from 22 to 29.
One way of finding your future occupation in Germany is by pursuing a dual vocational training programme. Such programmes offer plenty of opportunities for on-the-job training and work experience. Programmes usually last between two and three and a half years and comprise theoretical as well as practical elements. You will spend one or two days a week, or several weeks at once, at a vocational school where you will acquire the theoretical knowledge that you will need in your future occupation.
The rest of the time will be spent at a company. There you get to apply your newly acquired knowledge in practice, for example, by learning to operate machinery. You will get to know what your company does, learn how it operates, and find out if you can see yourself working there after completing your training.
This combination of theory and practice gives you a real head start into your job. By the time you have completed your training, you will not only have the required technical knowledge, but you will also have hands-on experience in your job. There are around 350 officially recognised training programmes in Germany, so chances are good that one of them will suit your interests and talents. You can find out which one that might be by visiting one of the jobs and vocational training fairs, which are organised in many German cities at different times in the year.
Employment prospects for students who have completed a dual vocational training programme are very good. This is one of the reasons why this kind of training is very popular with young Germans. Around two- thirds of all students leaving school go on to start a vocational training programme.
