The following text is for questions 12 to 16

 When I was 14, I took a trip to Paris, France. I had been there once before, when I was 10. The
first trip wasn’t as memorable, except for the fact that it had been my first time out of the country.
My second trip was meaningful, thought-provoking, and of course, fun.
We left on my birthday, when I was in freshman year. I had made up my mind that I was going
to have a wonderful high school career. When I got off the plane fifteen hours later, I was hit with
the fact that I was in a beautiful new city. After going through airport necessities, we caught a cab,
and entered the heart of the French lifestyle. Entering the city was like unlocking many levels of a
jewelry box. On the topmost level, there were the apartments and tall industrial buildings. The
further in we got, the more and more precious it became.
The next morning we started out on our excursions. Down two blocks from the front door of the
hotel was the glorious Galleries Lafayette. Down a few more was the famous Paris Opera House. A
short ride on the Metro took us to the Louvre and Tuileries Gardens in front of the Egyptian Obelisk
and Place de la Concorde where the Tour de France finishes. A walk across the Pont de Alexander
brings us to Le Hotel des Invalides, where Napoleon’s tomb lies. The Eiffel Tower standing at 1,063
ft tall, looking over the city as a mother looks over a child playing. The object of many a photograph
and painting, the subject of poems and stories, it looms there like a statuesque figure on the pages of
a magazine.
The beauty of the city changed my way of thinking. The elegance and sophistication made me
mature in a week. I appreciated the history of the artwork and architecture. The city freed me from
my fear of individualism at home. I arrived back in San Diego wanting to be a Parisian. I came back
with a love of haute couture and impressionism. But perhaps the most important change that
occurred within me was the one of self esteem. I came home more confident than ever before.

The following text is for questions 21 to 26

A beggar found a leather purse that someone had dropped in the marketplace. Opening it, he
discovered that it contained 100 pieces of gold. Then he heard a merchant shout, "A reward! A
reward to the one who finds my leather purse!"
Being an honest man, the beggar came forward and handed the purse to the merchant saying,
"Here is your purse. May I have the reward now?"
"Reward?" scoffed the merchant, greedily counting his gold. "Why the purse I dropped had 200
pieces of gold in it. You've already stolen more than the reward! Go away or I'll tell the police."
"I'm an honest man," said the beggar defiantly. "Let us take this matter to the court."
In court the judge patiently listened to both sides of the story and said, "I believe you both. Justice
is possible! Merchant, you stated that the purse you lost contained 200 pieces of gold. Well, that's a
considerable cost. But, the purse this beggar found had only 100 pieces of gold. Therefore, it
couldn't be the one you lost." And, with that, the judge gave the purse and all the gold to the beggar.

The following text is for questions 27 to 30

The COVID-19 outbreak has had a huge impact on both physical and social well-being of a lot of
Americans, including me. Stress has been governing the lives of so many civilians, in particular
students and workers. In addition to causing a lack of motivation in my life, quarantine has also
brought a wave of anxiety.

My life changed the moment the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and the government
announced social distancing. My busy daily schedule, running from class to class and meeting to
meeting, morphed into identical days, consisting of hour after hour behind a cold computer monitor
to count on some lectures and assignment. Human interaction and touch improve trust, reduce fear
and increases physical well-being. Imagine the effects of removing the human touch and interaction
from midst of society. Humans are profoundly social creatures. I cannot function without interacting
and connecting with other people. Even daily acquaintances have an impact on me that is only
noticeable once removed. As a result, the COVID-19 outbreak has had an extreme impact on me
beyond direct symptoms and consequences of contracting the virus itself.

This situation is far from ideal. From my perspective, touch and in-person interaction is
essential; however, we must overcome all difficulties that life throws at us with the best we are
provided with. Therefore, perhaps we should take this time to re-align our motives by engaging in
things that are of importance to us. I learned how to dig deep and find appreciation for all the small
talks, gatherings, and face-to-face interactions. I have also realized that friendships are not only built
on the foundation of physical presence but rather on meaningful conversations you get to have, even
if they are through a cold computer monitor. My realization came from having more time on my
hands and noticing the shift in conversations I was having with those around me. After all, maybe
this isolation isn’t “social distancing”, but rather “physical distancing” until we meet again.
