What Is the Lexical Approach?
Linguist Michael Lewis literally wrote the book on
the topic. His 1993 work, titled “The Lexical Approach: The
State of ELT and a Way Forward,” put together the
conceptual foundations for effectively teaching a second
language.
The idea is that grammar comes only second to
Lexis, or words. But by “words,” we’re not talking about
vocabulary or individual words here. We’re more interested
in word “chunks,” or phrases—words that usually go
together and are commonly found next to each other in the
language.
There are plenty of them in English: words that
come as a set and signal the presence of the other, like
Starsky and Hutch, Donkey and Shrek, Batman and Robin.
Consider the following phrases:
• by the way
• abstract reasoning
• complete idiot
• best wishes
• make up your mind
• go to great lengths
These words often go together and native speakers
use them next to each other a lot.
The lexical approach posits that languages are
composed of these “chunks” and that the key to fluency in
any language is the nuanced use of these phrases—which
native speakers spew in daily conversations—without
regard for grammatical soundness or word meaning. (If you
think about it, native speakers don’t really consciously
observe grammar rules every time they speak. They simply
talk).

Mark the alternative in which the word “often” from
“These words often go together and native speakers
use them next to each other a lot” could be better
replaced without change the meaning.

The pandemic has exposed a contradiction in modern
society. We are more connected than ever – proven by the speed
and truly global spread of the virus; nevertheless, we are also
deeply divided.
Today’s connectedness, enforced by social distancing, has
pushed the role of technology in every aspect of our lives to a
new level. The tech industry is now in a challenging space:
trapped between the increasing politicization of technology, the
still superficial social debate around its impact and the slow
adaptation of appropriate legislation. Right now, the industry
needs to enable and push forward this ethical debate, recognizing
its responsibility in this historic moment.
The first step is to end the myth of tech neutrality. We
need to acknowledge that technology is caught between private
economic interests and its social value. Some tech business
models, for example, prioritize commodification of data or
advertising revenue over the social value of their services — the
sharing of knowledge, connecting people, etc.
The social impact of tech is deeper than we usually
perceive and most of the time invisible to us. Digital architecture
determines, increasingly, social interactions in our digital society.
An example of this is the invisible influence of search engine and
social media algorithms, the results of which shape our
understanding of the world.
In this moment of crisis, technology can play a
fundamental role in overcoming the economic recession and
reducing the systemic injustices that have been exposed.
Social exclusion - the next pandemic.

Why are animals important to human beings?
There are a number of reasons why animals are important to human beings. The main
reason is that animals benefit us personally, socially and economically.
Since the time of our cavemen ancestors, there have been interactions between humans and
animals. Animals can be our friends, companions, protectors, benefactors and comforters.
Research studies indicate that people who own pets and have close bond with them have
higher self-esteem. They are also generally happier and healthier. There are many reported
cases in which pets protected their owners and family members. In the United States, a pet
dog alerted its owners that their babysitter was abusive. A couple who hired a babysitter to
take care of their baby noticed that their pet dog was aggressive to the babysitter. Upon
investigation, they discovered that their child was abused by the babysitter.
Animals provide many other benefits to humans. Insulin, a hormone in our body which
controls the amount of sugar absorbed by our blood, could not be artificially produced
previously. It had to be derived from cows and pigs. Nowadays, even though animal
insulin has largely been replaced by artificial human insulin, the former is still available on
prescription. Trained guide dogs are available to serve as loyal companions and ‘pairs of
eyes’ for the blind. In the past, hunters took along hunting dogs to track, sniff out and catch
wild game. When night fell, the canines were the hunters’ companions and protectors. In
rehabilitation centers, animals are used to help the sick recover. For instance, petting a
pony helps to lift a sick child’s spirit.
Throughout history, animals have helped humans. We use animals to work for us. In the
agricultural sector, oxen pull ploughs before seeds are planted in the soil. We use horses
for transportation purposes. They pull carriages and covered wagons for us. Even though
oxen and horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes respectively today, the
horses are still being used for riding and racing. They are also used to participate in
contests in order to win awards. Farmers depend on animals such as cattle, poultry, sheep,
goats, among others, for their horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes
respectively today, the horses are still being used for riding and racing. They sell the
animals’ meat, milk and eggs to earn money. In the fishing industry, although the use of
modern equipment and technology have replaced the use of animals to catch fish,
fishermen in some parts of the world still use animals like dolphins, otters and cormorants
for the purpose.
Another indirectly way in which animals help us is that they assist in the reproduction of a
variety of fruit and vegetable crops, which are an important part of our healthy diet.
Without animals to help disperse seeds and pollinate plants, many of them would have
become extinct.
In conclusion, animals are important to human beings because they benefit us socially,
personally as well as economically. Since they are of great benefit to us, we should treat
them well.

Answers the question according to the text below.
Organ Donation and Transplant
At this moment, more than 113,000 people in the U.S. are waiting for an organ.
One more person is added to the national waiting list every 12 minutes.
Each of these people is in desperate need of a kidney, liver, heart, or other organ.
More than 6,500 people a year -- about 20 a day -- die before that organ ever
becomes available.
Organ donors are always in short supply. There are far more people in need of a
transplant than there are people willing to donate an organ.
Most of the organs that are available come from deceased donors. When you fill
out an organ donor card with your driver's license, you're agreeing to donate all or
some of your organs if you die.
A smaller number of organs come from healthy people. More than 6,000
transplants from living donors are performed each year.
You might have wondered about donating an organ -- either to a friend or relative
who needs an organ right now, or by filling out an organ donor card.
Just about anyone, at any age, can become an organ donor. Anyone younger than
age18 needs to have the consent of a parent or guardian.
For organ donation after death, a medical assessment will be done to determine what
organs can be donated. Certain conditions, such as having HIV, actively
spreading cancer, or severe infection would exclude organ donation.
Having a serious condition like cancer, HIV, diabetes, kidney disease, or heart
disease can prevent you from donating as a living donor.
“You might have wondered about donating an organ -- EITHER to a friend OR relative…” (line 13). The
highlighted expression is a:

TEXT I
The time to embrace change in education is right now! In fact, it’s long overdue.
Did you know that the model for modern-day public education was created by the
need for on-time mechanical workers during the industrial revolution? That was
certainly a technological disruption, but it happened 250 years ago. It’s what we
call the front-lead method, and it’s not the best model for addressing the learning
needs of many students: divergent thinkers, neurodiverse minds, creatives,
scientists, and the list goes on. Which brings us to our next point: it’s time for the
next wave of disruption. Luckily for us, it’s here. And it’s been here since 1989,
when Tim Berners-Lee — a British scientist from CERT — invented the World
Wide Web. We know, you use the internet every day, and it’s great, but maybe
you’re skeptical that it can revolutionize education. Well, if you didn’t know, it
already is. A large body of evidence-based, peer reviewed work points to the web
as one of the central hubs for positive educational change today. It’s our
connection to others, our access to a world of educational resources, it’s a format
that works for many learners, it’s at the heart of countless services (that don’t work
in an unconnected world), and it’s driving access to education.
