Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 7 to 14.

The concept of project farming, where farmers come together to collaborate on large-scale
agricultural projects, has gained significant traction, and modern technology keeps this
collaboration on track. Advanced technologies such as GPS, sensors, drones, and data
analytics are used to optimise agricultural practices. Additionally, the collected real-time data
on soil conditions, weather patterns, and plant growth enables farmers to accelerate the
decision-making process that maximises productivity while minimising resource wastage.

GPS technology allows farmers to precisely map out their fields and create customised
planting plans. This ensures that seeds are sown at optimal locations based on soil
characteristics and previous yield data. By avoiding areas with poor fertility, farmers can
increase their overall crop yield. Camera traps provide advance warnings of insects, so
farmers do not have to treat the whole field. This, therefore, helps curb chemical runoff and
save money for every party involved in the project.

Technology also plays a vital role in optimising irrigation practices for sustainable agriculture.
Specialised equipment reports dryness hour by hour, and weather apps forecast rain for the
week ahead. Automated valves give each zone exactly the water it needs and pause when
clouds are approaching. This cuts pumping costs and protects groundwater while keeping the
crop healthy. On dry continents, such smartpiles keep projects economically viable.

The digital trail does not stop at the farm gate. Cloud platforms let project farmers,
processors, and truck drivers input harvest weights, storage temperatures, and delivery times
the moment they change, while blockchain records freeze each entry so customers can trust
it. Analytic tools combine seasons of records to forecast demand, spot price opportunities, and
mark weak points in the workflow. This allows project farmers to anticipate market demand,
optimise resource allocation, and plan for potential challenges.

Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 20 to 29.

We are living through a boom in greenwashing – the strategic use of comforting

environmental claims to disguise business-as-usual pollution. Picture a chief executive whose
company emits millions of tonnes of CO₂. Genuine decarbonisation would require bruising
boardroom discussions, huge capital outlays, and a complete redesign of the firm’s model. Far
easier is to hire a creative agency to plaster products with labels such as “carbon-neutral” or
“net-zero,” calming critics, investors, and even eco-conscious children while emissions
continue unsolved.

This tactic meets consumers at every turn. Airline websites promise guilt-free flights, petrol
pumps boast zero-impact fuel, and even supermarket bacon is marketed as net-zero. [I]
Advertising trickery is ancient, yet today’s greenwashing – the practice of deliberately
covering ongoing pollution in eco-friendly language – has flourished only recently. The
expression surfaced in the 1980s amid oil spills and growing climate science, but the real
explosion has come as public anxiety over global heating and biodiversity loss has intensified.
Faced with mounting scrutiny, many boards prefer glossy PR to structural reform. Such
corporate sleight of hand has become so pervasive that regulators in Europe and the United
States are scrambling to tighten rules on environmental claims, yet enforcement still lags
behind marketing creativity. [II]

The fossil-fuel sector exemplifies the issue. After decades covertly sowing doubt about climate
science, oil and gas giants have grasped that direct denial is reputationally toxic. They have
therefore swapped their denial tactics for a "green" paint-sprayer, trumpeting token
investments in renewables while expanding drilling.
Why does this matter? Greenwashing and climate denial share a core objective: to postpone
the emission cuts urgently required to avert climate breakdown. [III] Whereas denial invites
opposition, greenwashing lulls the public into believing problems are already solved. Under
this collective illusion, pressure on high-emitting firms evaporates and the radical decisions
needed to transform energy, transport, and food systems are delayed indefinitely. [IV]
Greenwashing thus acts as a soothing lullaby, leading society toward ecological ruin with a
tune of comforting half-truths. Exposing this deception is essential if clichés are to be
replaced by real, measurable emission cuts.

B. Large-emission enterprises prefer "net-zero" or "carbon-neutral" tags on their offerings over
genuine decarbonisation.
C. Chief executives' opinions are divided on whether or not genuine decarbonisation should be
consistently implemented.
D. The great pressure to soothe environmental claims urges high-emitting corporations to

B. the United States
C. regulators in Europe
D. rules on environmental claims

Question 25. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph
3?
A. Were it not for genuine efforts to reduce emissions, rhetoric about greenwashing could not
be brought to light.
B. Genuine efforts to reduce emissions cannot take the place of rhetoric without greenwashing
being uncovered.
C. Not until genuine efforts to cut down on emissions are recognised could the truth about
greenwashing be concealed.
D. No sooner had empty resolutions minimised emissions than the plain truth about
greenwashing was elucidated.

Question 26. According to the passage, the adoption of "green" paint by fossil-fuel companies
is mentioned as ______.
A. a particular way to dispute the claims about environmental crisis
B. a typical application of climate science
C. a prompt response to public demand for eco-friendly products
D. a specific example of greenwashing

Question 27. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The profits that high-emitting firms reap from running a "green" marketing campaign
provide them with resources to reinvest in renewable ventures.
B. The perceived action created by greenwashing has stressed the urgency for meaningful
regulatory and corporate changes to address climate change.
C. Regulators have the necessary tools and resources to verify most environmental claims,
which enables them to prevent misleading messages from reaching everyday consumers.
D. Increased public concern about environmental issues, coupled with their complacency with
"eco-friendly" labelled products, contributes to the rise of greenwashing.

Question 28. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?
Yet greenwashing is arguably more insidious.
A. [I]
B. [II]
C. [III]
D. [IV]

Question 29. Which of the following best summarises the passage?

A. Greenwashing has now been pervading everyday products and services, raising customers'
awareness of the urgent need to maintain sustainable developments.
B. Major emitters have opted for open climate denials in preference to more sophisticated
greenwashing to preserve profits and reputation instead of reforming their core operations.
C. A new wave of greenwashing allows corporations to hide ongoing pollution behind
reassuring eco-labels, diverting scrutiny from the rapid emission cuts considered vital by
scientists.
D. Greenwashing has significantly grown in its scale and sophistication since its emergence,
attracting considerable attention of both the general public and policymakers worldwide.
