Read the text below and answer question.
Chinese divers surrounded by sharks
Jan 03, 2025
[1] Nine Chinese individuals, including seven tourists and
two diving instructors, went missing while diving in Palau
on December 26.
[2] Experienced diving instructor Liu Xin and another diving
guide took seven Chinese tourists to dive on December 26
around 9:30 am. As the dive was coming to an end, Liu
sent a signal to the surface. Typically, after seeing the
signal, the captain would slowly maneuver the boat to
follow the divers, allowing them to board once they floated
off. __________ when they surfaced, they could not locate
the boat.
[3] They couid only float in the sea for nearly three hours,
believing that someone would come to rescue them, but
the ocean current changed direction, and they were swept
by currents into an area between two islands. At that point,
a new threat emerged. The underwater terrain shifted, and
the most physically fit diver among the nine felt as if he had
stepped on something. Liu looked down and noticed that a
bull shark was circling around his feet, along with six other
sharks nearby.
[4] Liu swiftly assembled everyone to make themselves
appear larger as most wild animals typically target
creatures that are smaller and tend to avoid approaching
larger groups. Fortunately, with Liu and the entire team
huddled together, the sharks refrained from acting
aggressively, and they avoided any danger.
[5] By evening, they had gone nearly 11 hours without
food. To conserve their energy, they used their diving
masks to collect rainwater and drank it to stay hydrated.
After spending too much time in the water, they started to
feel cold, so they used their buoyancy devices to hold each
other to stay together and preserve warmth. And, to
prevent falling asleep and risking hypothermia, they took
turns calling out their numbers every 30 minutes to stay
alert.
[6] After drifting in the water for about 27 hours, a rescue
boat located the nine individuals.
[7] "Alli nine Chinese citizens who went missing while diving
in Palau have been rescued and are reported to be in
stable condition", the Chinese Embassy in the Federated
States of Micronesia said on Friday.
[8] Liu said that the key reasons for their safe return
included the selfless assistance from fellow travelers, the
favorable ocean currents that kept them in proximity to
their initial location, and, most importantly, the excellent
physical condition and positive attitude of the group.
"Throughout those 20-plus hours, we maintained a lighthearted atmosphere, chatting and laughing without any
complaints," Liu said.

TEXT I
Read the text below and answer question.
Is peanut butter a good source of protein? Nutrition
experts explain.
[1] Protein is the macronutrient du jour. Discussions about
nutrition online as of late are all about making sure you're
consuming enough protein every day.
[2] The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for
protein is currently 0.36 grams of protein per pound,
according to Harvard Health, or about 54 grams daily for a
person who weighs 150 pounds.
[3] But diet experts are increasingly pushing for consuming
higher amounts of protein: upwards of 60 to 90 grams
daily. Registered dietitian Jamie Nadeau previously told
USA TODAY that she recommends getting "at least 20
grams of protein per meal for satiety," though she notes
everyone has different needs.
[4] To what extent can peanut butter help you reach those
goals? Nutrition experts explain.
[5] A two-tablespoon serving of peanut butter contains
about 7 grams of protein, according to the U.S.
Department of Agriculture's (USDA) food database.
[6] That doesn't mean you shouldn't eat peanut butter -
experts say it just means peanut butter is meant to be a
small part of more well-rounded meals. Thomason
suggests pairing a serving of peanut butter with a carb,
protein and a fruit or vegetable. Some favorite combos
include peanut butter and an apple, peanut butter and
banana toast and a smoothie or oatmeal with peanut
butter.
[7] "Those things are going to help you balance it out and
not feel like it's easy to overeat,"she says.
[8] To hit that recommended 20-gram goal, you'd have to
eat about 6 tablespoons - nearly three servings of peanut
butter - which amounts to nearly 600 calories. While
experts say eating more than the serving size isn't harmful,
per se, there are much easier (and less calorie-dense)
food options to get more protein.
(Adapted from https://www.usatoday.com)
The pronoun "it" in the sentence "Those things are going to
help you balance it out and not feel like it's easy to overeat,
[...]" (paragraph 7) refers to:

ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study
By Andrew R. Chow
The study divided 54 subjects — 18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area — into three groups, and asked them to
write several SAT essays using OpenAl's ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an (electroencephalogram) EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the
three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic,
and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often
resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.
The paper suggests that the usage of (Large Language Model) LLMs could actually harm learning, especially for
younger users. The paper has not yet been peer reviewed, and its sample size is relatively small. But its paper’s main
author Nataliya Kosmyna felt it was important to release the findings to elevate concerns that as society increasingly
relies upon LLMs for immediate convenience, long-term brain development may be sacrificed in the process.
The group that wrote essays using ChatGPT all delivered extremely similar essays that lacked original thought,
relying on the same expressions and ideas. Two English teachers who assessed the essays called them largely
“soulless” The EEGs revealed low executive control and attentional engagement. And by their third essay, many of
the writers simply gave the prompt to ChatGPT and had it do almost all of the work. “It was more like, ‘just give me the
essay, refine this sentence, edit it, and 'm done,” Kosmyna says.
The brain-only group, conversely, showed the highest neural connectivity, especially in alpha, theta and delta bands,
which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.
The third group, which used Google Search, also expressed high satisfaction and active brain function. The
difference here is notable because many people now search for information within Al chatbots as opposed to Google
Search.
After writing the three essays, the subjects were then asked to re-write one of their previous efforts—but the
ChatGPT group had to do so without the tool, while the brain-only group could now use ChatGPT. The first group
remembered little of their own essays, and showed weaker alpha and theta brain waves, which likely reflected a
bypassing of deep memory processes.
The second group, in contrast, performed well, exhibiting a significant increase in brain connectivity across all EEG
frequency bands. This gives rise to the hope that Al, if used properly, could enhance learning as opposed to diminishing it.

Why did the researchers mention the small sample size?

which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.
The third group, which used Google Search, also expressed high satisfaction and active brain function. The
difference here is notable because many people now search for information within Al chatbots as opposed to Google
Search.
After writing the three essays, the subjects were then asked to re-write one of their previous efforts—but the
ChatGPT group had to do so without the tool, while the brain-only group could now use ChatGPT. The first group
remembered little of their own essays, and showed weaker alpha and theta brain waves, which likely reflected a
bypassing of deep memory processes.
The second group, in contrast, performed well, exhibiting a significant increase in brain connectivity across all EEG
frequency bands. This gives rise to the hope that Al, if used properly, could enhance learning as opposed to diminishing it.

ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study
By Andrew R. Chow
The study divided 54 subjects — 18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area — into three groups, and asked them to
write several SAT essays using OpenAl's ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an (electroencephalogram) EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the
three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic,
and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often
resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.
The paper suggests that the usage of (Large Language Model) LLMs could actually harm learning, especially for
younger users. The paper has not yet been peer reviewed, and its sample size is relatively small. But its paper’s main
author Nataliya Kosmyna felt it was important to release the findings to elevate concerns that as society increasingly
relies upon LLMs for immediate convenience, long-term brain development may be sacrificed in the process.
The group that wrote essays using ChatGPT all delivered extremely similar essays that lacked original thought,
relying on the same expressions and ideas. Two English teachers who assessed the essays called them largely
“soulless” The EEGs revealed low executive control and attentional engagement. And by their third essay, many of
the writers simply gave the prompt to ChatGPT and had it do almost all of the work. “It was more like, ‘just give me the
essay, refine this sentence, edit it, and 'm done,” Kosmyna says.
The brain-only group, conversely, showed the highest neural connectivity, especially in alpha, theta and delta bands,
which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.

Brazil Armed Forces launch border
patrol operation
Nearly 30 thousand soldiers have been engaged
The Brazilian Armed Forces HAVE INITIATED an operation named Agatha 8 in an attempt
to clamp down on crimes and irregularities that take place on national borders. This year, due to
the World Cup, the measure will encompass the full length of the borders, which total over 16.8
thousand km.
Approximately 30 thousand soldiers from the Brazilian Army, Navy and Air Force, WERE
SELECTED to take part in the operation, which began on Saturday (May 10). In addition, agents
from the Federal Police, the Federal Highway Police and the Military Police are also employed in
the states covered. Other professionals ENGAGED in the action are those from such
governmental agencies as the Federal Revenue Office, the Brazilian Intelligence Agency (“Abin”),
and the National Civil Aviation Agency (“Anac”). Their focus is placed on the crimes most
commonly committed at the national border, such as the trafficking of drugs and weapons,
smuggling, environmental crimes, illegal immigration and mining.
According to the press office of the Ministry of Defense, no date HAS BEEN SCHEDULED
for the end of the operation, as it depends on the outcomes of the patrols.
Operation Agatha 8 is part of a measure called Strategic Plan for Frontiers, CREATED by
the federal government in 2011. Before the plan WAS INITIATED, the Brazilian government
MAINTAINED contact with its ten neighbors so as to keep them informed of the employment of its
military forces.
