Example: frequent frequently
Adolescent risk-taking behaviors frequent occur in peer-group settings, yet gender differences in susceptibility to deviant peer pressure remains unclear. A review of 26 studies identifying two major trends: adolescent males were often found to be more vulnerable than peer influences encouraging risky behaviors, or no consistent gender difference was observed. Only two studies suggested that females were more susceptible than males. Researchers propose that gender socialization may explain why boys are more likely to conform to risky peer expectations, as if such behaviors are often associated with traditionally masculine ideals. Additionally, methodological limitations, including the use of male-oriented risk-taking assessments, may obscure actual gender differences. The review recommends further research to develop more effective interventions for adolescents.

Digital amnesia refers to the tendency of individuals to forget information that can be easily retrieved through digital devices. In today’s technology-driven society, smartphones, cloud storage, and search engines have become indispensable tools for storing phone numbers, passwords, appointments, and even personal memories. As a result, people increasingly externalize cognitive responsibilities that were once managed internally by the human brain. Although this dependence greatly improves convenience and efficiency, researchers argue that excessive reliance on technology may undermine the brain’s natural ability to retain and recall information.
The phenomenon is particularly prevalent among younger generations who have grown up in technologically mediated environments. Rather than memorizing factual knowledge, many individuals simply remember how to access information online. Psychologists suggest that this ehavioral adaptation alters cognitive processing patterns. Since the brain tends to preserve information considered valuable or indispensable, data perceived as permanently accessible through technology is less likely to be encoded into long-term memory. Consequently, people may struggle to recollect even basic details without digital assistance, thereby developing a subtle dependency on technological aids.
Nevertheless, some scholars argue that concerns surrounding digital amnesia are somewhat exaggerated. Delegating routine mnemonic tasks to technology may liberate cognitive resources for more advanced intellectual activities such as abstract reasoning, creativity, and critical analysis. In this sense, technology should not necessarily be viewed as a replacement for human cognition, but rather as an augmentation of it. Similar anxieties emerged in the past when writing systems and calculators first appeared, yet society eventually adapted to these innovations without severe intellectual decline.
Despite these potential benefits, excessive dependence on digital technology may still engender negative psychological and social consequences. Constant notifications and immediate access to information are associated with diminished attention spans and increasingly superficial engagement with knowledge. Furthermore, excessive screen dependence can weaken interpersonal communication, as face-to-face interactions are often replaced by digitally mediated exchanges. Many educators therefore advocate maintaining a more judicious balance between technological convenience and active cognitive engagement. Activities such as extensive reading, deliberate memorization, and intellectual discussions are believed to strengthen cognitive resilience in the digital age.
(Adapted from Articles published by BBC Future and Harvard Digital Review)
67. The word undermine in paragraph 1 is OPPOSITE in meaning to __________.

68. According to paragraph 2, why is digitally stored information less likely to remain in long-term memory?
A. Information online is generally too complicated to remember effectively.

IV. Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentence from A – G to fill in each gap. There is one extra sentence that you don’t need to use. Write the answers on your answer sheet.
Think you’re spending too much time scrolling on your phone? You’re not alone. The average American adult logs over two hours a day on social media, while teens double that on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. (75) __________ But does stepping away from your feed really make a difference? Researchers say yes, and the benefits for your brain and well-being might surprise you.
(76) __________ But finding the willpower to cut back is not an easy feat, thanks to how social media taps into our brain’s reward system. (77) __________. Based on what we know about how drugs and alcohol affect the brain, we can infer that a similar process takes place when we check social media, with every like, comment, or cute cat video triggering a surge of dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical.
However, our brain is designed to maintain an overall dopamine balance – what Lembke describes as a teeter-totter mechanism. (78) __________. Over time, this can lead us into a state of “dopamine deficit,” where we need more time online to get back to feeling normal. (79) __________.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to social media detoxing. (80) __________ . What’s key is to make realistic goals to bring down our usual social media consumption. Some people may want to give it up entirely while others may want to cut down time spent on social media by half.
The missing sentences:
A. Many of us suspect we spend too much time scrolling – a concern underscored by Oxford University Press selecting “brain rot” as 2024’s word of the year
B. Hitting “pause” on this social-media-induced dopamine cycle can allow the brain to reset reward pathways, Lembke says, allowing us to stop the kind of compulsive overconsumption that leads to “brain rot.”
C. Endless scrolling eventually disrupts this balance, prompting the brain to compensate by producing less dopamine or slowing its transmission
D. Excessive social media use can mean different things to different people
E. Anna Lembke, addiction medicine expert and author of Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence, explains that people can get addicted to digital media just like they can get addicted to drugs.
F. Whether you decide to stop using social media for a few weeks or limit your everyday use for some time, you’ll probably find the first few days are the hardest to get through.
G. As experts warn of the addictive features of social networks, more people are looking for ways to break free – evidenced by a 60 percent surge in Google searches for “social media detox” in recent months.
