Why Soft Skills Matter
When discussing careers, professional growth,
or the process of finding a job, people often
focus mainly on "hard skills." These are
abilities directly associated with carrying out
specific tasks or performing a certain
profession. In most cases, they can be tested or
measured because they are developed through
diplomas, certifications, technical courses,
workshops, academic education, and
professional training programs.
In contrast, "soft skills" are not as easy
to evaluate quantitatively. They are usually
connected less to formal education and more to
personal experience, behavior, attitude, and the
way individuals interact with others. For this
reason, they are frequently referred to as
"people skills." They involve qualities such as
the ability to communicate effectively,
cooperate with others, motivate teams, or
demonstrate leadership in different situations.
Among the soft skills most valued in the
workplace are creativity, teamwork, leadership,
organization, adaptability, and strong written
and verbal communication. These
competencies contribute to the development of
a more complete and versatile professional. In
competitive job markets, they can even become
a major advantage for candidates seeking
employment opportunities. Since interpersonal
interaction exists in nearly every profession,
these skills are important across practically all
industries. For employers and job seekers alike,
these abilities are considered "transferable
skills" because they can be applied successfully
in different positions, companies, and
professional environments. Organizations
generally appreciate professionals who can adapt easily, collaborate with others, and
maintain effective interpersonal relationships,
making soft skills increasingly valuable in
modern workplaces.
Adapted from the article "Soft Skills" available at:
https://lingua.com/businessenglish/reading/soft-skills/
In the sentence "They can provide a
competitive edge in a job search," the
expression "competitive edge" could be
replaced, without changing the meaning, by:

Rising sea levels could severely disrupt crude oil
shipments and erode energy security in import-dependent
countries like China, South Korea and Japan, with many of the
world’s biggest terminals vulnerable to flooding, researchers
said on Tuesday.
Melting ice and swelling seas caused by rising
temperatures could “unleash unstoppable multi-metre sea
level rise which will not only sink key oil ports and disrupt
global oil trade but also swamp coastal refineries and
petrochemical facilities”, the China Water Risk (CWR) think
tank warned in a report.
A 2021 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change estimated that on current trends, average sea levels
could rise by more than a metre by the end of the century,
adding that a two-metre rise could not be ruled out.

Information Security (InfoSec) defined
Information security, often abbreviated InfoSec, is a set
of security procedures and tools that broadly protect sensitive
enterprise information from misuse, unauthorized access,
disruption, or destruction. InfoSec encompasses physical and
environmental security, access control, and cybersecurity. It
often includes technologies like cloud access security brokers
(CASB), deception tools, endpoint detection and response
(EDR), and security testing for DevOps (DevSecOps), among
others.
Key elements of information security
InfoSec comprises a range of security tools, solutions,
and processes that keep enterprise information secure across
devices and locations, helping to protect against cyberattacks
or other disruptive events.
• Application security - Policies, procedures, tools, and best
practices enacted to protect applications and their data.w
• Cloud security - Policies, procedures, tools, and best
practices enacted to protect all aspects of the cloud,
including systems, data, applications, and infrastructure.
• Cryptography - An algorithm-based method of securing
communication meant to ensure only intended recipients
of a specific message can view and decipher it.
• Disaster recovery - A method to reestablish functional
technological systems in the wake of an event like a
natural disaster, cyberattack, or another disruptive event.
• Incident response - An organization’s plan for responding
to, remediating, and managing the aftermath of a
cyberattack, data breach, or another disruptive event.
• Infrastructure security - Security that encompasses
an organization’s entire technological infrastructure,
including both hardware and software systems.
• Vulnerability management - The process an organization
takes to identify, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities in
its endpoints, software, and systems.

Proper storage of pharmaceutical products is essential to maintain their safety, quality, and effectiveness. Medicines must be kept under controlled environmental conditions, including appropriate temperature, humidity, and light exposure. Certain drugs require refrigeration, while others must be stored at room temperature according to manufacturer specifications.
Pharmacists and pharmacy technicians are responsible for monitoring storage conditions and ensuring that expired or compromised products are promptly removed from circulation. Failure to comply with storage standards may result in reduced therapeutic efficacy or potential risks to patients.
Additionally, access to medication storage areas should be restricted to authorized personnel only. Regular inspections and accurate documentation are necessary to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
Considering the text and standard English usage, judge the following items.
In the text, the adjective “expired” describes products
that are no longer valid for use.
