Scientists are warning that smokers are in danger of damaging their eyes. Smokers are two times more
likely to lose their vision than non-smokers. Smoking damages the lungs and heart. Not many people
know it also damages the eyes. The Association of Optometrists (AOP) started a campaign to tell people
about the danger of smoking to the eyes. The campaign is called "Stub it out". The word "stub" means put
out a cigarette by pushing the end against something; "stub it out" is saying, "stop smoking".
The AOP said only one in five people thinks smoking damages the eyes. The AOP explained why
smoking harms the eyes. Cigarette smoke gets in the eyes and causes different problems. The smoke
contains poisons that can damage the eyes. It also contains small pieces of metal like lead. This can get
into the eyes and lead to cataracts - a problem that causes the eyes to become cloudy. People will need an
operation to restore their sight. Smoke can also worsen sight problems for people with diabetes. The AOP
said smokers are also three times more likely to damage eye muscles. The AOP has said smokers should
quit.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Gabriela worked for a multinational company as a successful project manager in Brazil and was
transferred to manage a team in Sweden. She was excited about her new role but soon realised that
managing her new team would be a challenge. Despite their friendliness, Gabriela didn’t feel respected
as a leader. Her new staff would question her proposals openly in meetings, and when she gave them
instructions on how to carry out a task, they would often go about it in their own way without checking
with her. After weeks of frustration, Gabriela emailed her Swedish manager about the issues she was
facing with her team. Her manager simply asked her if she felt her team was still performing, and what
she thought would help her better collaborate with her team members. Gabriela found her manager vague
and didn’t feel as if he was managing the situation satisfactorily.
What Gabriela was experiencing was a cultural clash in expectations. She was used to a more
hierarchical framework where the team leader and manager took control and gave specific instructions on
how things were to be done. This more directive management style worked well for her and her team in
Brazil but did not transfer well to her new team in Sweden, who were more used to a flatter hierarchy
where decision making was more democratic. When Gabriela took the issue to her Swedish manager,
rather than stepping in with directions about what to do, her manager took on the role of coach and focused
on getting her to come up with her own solutions instead.
When Gabriela became aware of the cultural differences between her and her team, she took the
initiative to have an open conversation with them about their feelings about her leadership. Pleased to be
asked for their thoughts, Gabriela’s team openly expressed that they were not used to being told what to
do. They enjoyed having more room for initiative and creative freedom. When she told her team exactly
what she needed them to do, they felt that she didn’t trust them to do their job well.
With a better understanding of the underlying reasons behind each other’s behaviour, Gabriela and her
team were able to adapt their way of working. Gabriela was then able to make adjustments to her
management style so as to better fit the expectations of her team and more effectively motivate her team
to achieve their goals.
(Adapted from https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/)
Question 36. What best serves as the title for the passage?
A. Different Types of Management B. Cultural Differences between two Managers
C. Cultural Expectations and Leadership D. The Importance of Freedom
Question 37. The word ‘they’ in paragraph 1 refers to _________.
A. proposals B. instructions C. meetings D. staff
