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.
How would you use to describe an introvert? Shy? Always alone? Boring? Don’t work well in
groups? If these are your answers, then you may want to keep reading and think again.
When an introvert feels overwhelmed by too much socializing, they often need a little quiet
time and solitude to recharge. Unfortunately, people sometimes mistake this desire to be alone as a
negative emotion. While introverts might need to have some time alone each day to gain back their
energy, it certainly does not mean that they are in a bad mood or that they always want to be alone. It
is important to understand that they still enjoy spending time with people they know well.
Although some do experience shyness and social anxiety, introverted people do not necessarily
feel apprehensive about talking to others. Introverts prefer to think before they speak and usually do
not enjoy chit-chat or small talk. Instead, they like to get to know a person more before engaging in a
lot of conversation. So what can you do to start up a conversation with an introvert at social
gatherings? Try starting discussions about topics the introvert cares about and you just might find
that they can be surprisingly talkative.
Another common and possibly harmful misconception is that introversion is a negative
personality trait. This can be particularly problematic for introverted kids who are constantly pushed
into social situations by adults who think that socializing is the way to "fix" their kids. For an introvert,
constantly being told that "you need to speak more" is a lot like telling an extrovert that they "need to
shut up." It implies that there is something wrong with the individual and is, therefore, extremely
offensive.

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.
Life is a series of decisions. Some have little effect on your life, but others can have huge
consequences. Choosing to relocate for a job, for example, can impact our routines, social
relationships, and ultimately, happiness. You will be glad to know, however, that anyone can learn to
make better decisions.
Without clear objectives with a decision, you might focus on wrong things. Therefore, ask
yourself “What do I hope to achieve?”. If your goal when having dinner with a friend is to have a
meaningful conversation, you should choose a quieter setting rather than a bustling one. When it
comes to the bigger things, this approach still works. For example, when weighing multiple job offers,
think about what aspects of a new job would make your life better: salary, work-life balance, commute
time, fringe benefits, etc.
When it comes to major decisions, it would be ill-judged to make them on your own. Get a
handful of opinions, ideally from people with prior experience. The more expertise they have, the
more likely they are to base their evaluations on facts and logic rather than personal feelings. If you’re
thinking about adopting a puppy, for instance, seeking friends with pets is a good idea, as they can
offer practical advice on things like preparing for the challenges of animal parenthood, and whether
they think you are cut out for it. Talking to each person individually is also helpful as you’ll be sure to
get their opinions without any outside influence.
Many people think emotions should always be ignored in decision-making. However, it is
impossible to divorce emotions from logic. The key is to understand how emotions are impacting
your choices. For example, it’s not a good idea to make big decisions when you’re in a bad mood,
since you won’t be able to think clearly. One useful technique for regulating your feelings is called
journaling, which involves writing down all of your emotions and then re-examining them later. After
a few bad days at work, you can try putting all of your frustrations on paper and then revisit them
before deciding whether or not you should actually quit.
Finally, decide as much as you can in advance. There are all sorts of situations when, in the heat
of the moment, you might make a decision that you regret later, and committing to a plan
beforehand can prevent this. Going to the grocery store with a specific list, for instance, will not only
save you time but also prevent you from overspending on unnecessary things that you may feel the
urge to buy just because it is being advertised to you.
