It is not new that as a result of global warming, ice is melting adjacent to the poles at record speeds. Mountain ice and glaciers hold history to our planet’s past, and archeologists published their findings.
Permafrost at high elevations just over 200 miles north of Oslo, Norway, continues to melt (26) global climate change, and that is where the emerging field of Glacial Archaeology comes into play.

The best way to find out more about how people lived before the time of traditional record keeping is to study artifacts that may seem ordinary. In 2011,
specific to Lendbreen, Norway showed evidence of a Viking-era mountain pass. This information leads to a better understanding of how groups traveled throughout the Scandinavian region.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35. : Microplastics are presented at both the highest and deepest points on Earth. The tiny pieces of plastics had previously been discovered in the 11-kilometre-deep Mariana trench in the Pacific Ocean and have now been detected on Mount Everest. This is the first time that microplastics, bits of plastic less than 5 millimeters across that can come from the breakdown of larger items, have been detected on Everest.
Imogen Napper at the University of Plymouth, UK, and colleagues collected eight 99-millilitre samples of stream water and eleven 300-millilitre samples of snow from different points on the mountain. The team found microplastics in all of the snow samples and three of the stream samples. The results were released in the November 2020 New Science magazine.
“Even though the research on Mount Everest was really exciting and getting the samples was incredible, you are secretly hoping not to find any because you want the environment to be pristine,” says Napper.
Most microplastics found on Mount Everest came from synthetic fibres, including polyester and acrylic, which are used to make clothes and gear that trekkers rely on. Just walking around for 20 minutes, washing our clothes or opening a plastic bottle can release microplastics into the environment.
“What we don’t yet fully know is the potential problems these tiny pieces of plastic could be having to ecosystems, to organisms and even to our own health as well,” says Christian Dunn at Bangor University in the UK.
Because of their size, it is incredibly difficult to get rid of microplastics. According to Napper, the focus needs to be on technological advances to stop their further
spread. “Rather than mopping up the floor continuously, what we need to do to solve the problem of an overfilling bath is just turn off the tap.”

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
The hosting countries of the Olympics usually spend huge amounts of money to hold the 16-day event. Many of the countries taking part invest huge sums in programs for elite athletes. And that money is not spent to come in fourth.
The figures are enormous! Depending on who you ask, China spent 40 billion dollars on the Beijing Olympics and Russia invested 50 billion in Sochi; the Rio and London Games each cost between 14 and 18 billion dollars (1). In terms of money for athletes, the UK spent over 400 million dollars supporting 1,300 top competitors. This funding is directly linked to success: those who fail to achieve their targets will have their funding cut and, in some cases, completely removed (2).
Similarly, several years ago, China established a system known as Juguo Tizhi (“whole country support for the elite sport system”) for developing athletes. Children

are identified as potential sports stars between the ages of six and nine, and are sent to special sports schools run by the local government, where they train for up to 15 hours a week. Those who prove to have talent move on to a semi-professional schedule of four to six hours a day, five or six days a week. Later, the top performers move on to provincial training centers. Students there live and breathe their sport and hope to be selected for their provincial team (3). There are around 400,000 young people in this system, whose main purpose is to win glory for their nation.
China came in first in Beijing Olympics, and Great Britain got its highest ranking in over 100 years in 2016. The question is whether this search for success at all costs comes at the expense of investing in something which is arguably more valuable: local clubs and competitions; facilities for people to stay healthy and play for fun. Seeing your team win can obviously lift your spirits (4). However, this feeling is only temporary, while taking part in regular exercise and sports has been shown to have long-term physical and psychological benefits. Given this, surely spending more money on increasing sports participation from the lowest levels up would be a better way of tackling some of the health and social challenges that many countries face.
