Four Simple Ways to Reduce Plastic Waste on Campus
Hey students!
Today, we are sharing four practical tips for reducing plastic waste in your everyday life. These small changes can make a big difference for our planet.
- Bring Your Own Bags: Always carry reusable bags when you go shopping. Avoid single-use plastic bags that can end up in landfills and oceans.
- Use Refillable Water Bottles: Ditch the disposable plastic bottles and invest in a durable, refillable water bottle. This reduces plastic waste AND saves you money.
- Say No to Plastic Straws: Opt for reusable metal or bamboo straws. Many cafes and restaurants now provide eco-friendly alternatives.
- Choose Products with Less Packaging: Look for brands that use minimal or eco-friendly packaging. This can greatly reduce the amount of waste you generate.

Questions 31-35 of 35
Veganism in the United States
Veganism, a dietary approach that excludes all animal-based foods, has experienced notable shifts in popularity in the United States. A study conducted in 2020 showed a dramatic increase in the number of Americans adopting a plant-based diet between 2004 and 2019. This growth was fueled by expanding awareness of animal welfare, environmental concerns linked to industrial agriculture, and increased emphasis on healthy eating. During the 2010s, companies began to market plant-based meat alternatives that became highly popular with both restaurants and home cooks.
By the mid-2020s, however, momentum began to level off. Surveys in 2025 indicated that only about three to four percent of Americans identified as vegan. Several factors contributed to this plateau. Preparing vegan meals can be more involved than preparing meat-based meals. For example, a vegan cheese substitute can be made with nuts, but the process is time-consuming. And while home cooks can buy commercially manufactured vegan foods, those foods are highly processed, raising concerns about their healthfulness. Additionally, some social media influencers have begun to promote increased protein consumption, sparking increased consumer demand for meat. American food trends come and go, but while some consumers adopt extreme diets, Americans overall seem to be favoring more flexibility in their eating habits.
Questions 31
The main purpose of this passage is to
describe the birth of veganism in the United States
list the benefits of a vegan diet
analyze some changes in Americans’ attitudes toward veganism
identify trends in American consumer preferences
Questions 32
The author notes all of the following as factors driving the popularity of veganism EXCEPT
concern for animals
considerations about health
the high cost of consuming meat
a desire to protect the environment
Questions 33
The word “involved” in the passage is closest in meaning to
unsatisfying
expensive
unpleasant
complicated
Questions 34
The author mentions “a vegan cheese substitute” primarily in order to
note a challenge inherent in preparing vegan meals
identify a popular item used in many vegan recipes
contrast the healthfulness of vegan and animal-based foods
describe a cooking process popularized by vegans
Questions 35
The passage suggests which of the following about commercial meat-alternative products?
They became increasingly popular with home cooks during the mid-2020s.
They are produced in a way that causes some people to doubt their healthfulness.
They are not popular with Americans concerned about food allergies.

Questions 11-15 of 15
Circadian Rhythm Disruption
Circadian rhythms, the internal clocks regulating organisms’ physiological processes, are primarily driven by light exposure. These rhythms may be disrupted by the increased artificial light of urban environments, leading to what scientists call “circadian misalignment.” This misalignment not only affects sleep patterns but is linked to a higher prevalence of metabolic disorders. Interestingly, research on nocturnal animals reveals that these creatures have evolved mechanisms, such as unique melatonin production cycles, for thriving in conditions that disrupt human circadian rhythms. Such adaptations could inform potential human therapies.
Recent studies suggest that manipulating light exposure can help reset circadian clocks. Experiments demonstrated that disrupted rhythms can be realigned by the simulation of natural light cycles. However, this approach is not universally effective. Some individuals experience persistent misalignment, suggesting that other environmental or genetic factors may play significant roles.
Moreover, the factors affecting circadian regulation extend beyond light: temperature, diet, and social interactions all influence these rhythms. This complex causal web requires a multidisciplinary approach to develop comprehensive solutions. Cutting-edge research is now exploring therapeutic drugs that can rectify disruptions to the natural circadian rhythmic cycles. Whether these efforts will yield sustainable treatment options remains to be seen.
Questions 11
Why does the author mention the “higher prevalence of metabolic disorders”?
To explain why circadian misalignment is increasing in urban environments
To suggest a causal relationship between metabolic illness and sleep disturbances
To support the claim that circadian misalignment affects sleep patterns
To describe one effect of the disruption of circadian rhythms by artificial light
Questions 12
Why might some nocturnal animal adaptations be important for human therapies?
They provide evidence that light exposure is the greatest driver of circadian rhythms.
They offer clues about thriving in conditions that cause circadian misalignment in people.
They show that melatonin is not always effective in regulating sleep patterns.
They prove that animals’ melatonin production cycles closely resemble those of humans.
Questions 13
What does the author suggest about simulating natural light cycles as a way of resetting circadian clocks?
Most people experiencing circadian misalignment have seen no benefit from the treatment.
Most researchers agree that this treatment is currently the only effective approach.
The approach is most effective for people with a genetic predisposition for sleep disorders.
This approach has been successfully used to help many individuals restore their sleep patterns.
Questions 14
What is the relationship between paragraph 2 and paragraph 3?
Paragraph 2 defines a concept; paragraph 3 provides more detail by discussing specific examples.
Paragraph 2 evaluates a focused approach; paragraph 3 points to broader challenges and solutions.
Paragraph 2 proposes a theory; paragraph 3 notes potential objections to it and suggests responses.
Paragraph 2 outlines a methodology; paragraph 3 reports the results of applying it to a problem.

Professor Gupta
This week, we have been exploring the effects of globalization on local economies. Globalization refers to businesses and economies becoming interconnected and interdependent worldwide. Some economists argue that globalization leads to economic growth and increased opportunities by creating new markets and encouraging investment. Others hold that it can harm local businesses and lead to job losses as companies move production to countries with cheaper labor. Do you think globalization has a positive or negative impact on local economies? Why?
Kelly
I believe globalization generally benefits local economies. It opens doors to new markets and can attract foreign investment, boosting infrastructure and job creation. Local businesses may not be able to open stores in other countries, but global networking can foster growth and competition within our community. The overall impact of globalization leads to a stronger, more dynamic local economy.
Claire
I think that globalization tends to have a negative impact on local economies. It can hurt local businesses and lead to job losses as companies outsource production to countries where labor costs are lower. My parents own a store and have difficulty competing with global delivery services.
