Experts estimate that over 50% of the global population currently lives in cities, and by 2050,
this percentage is expected to reach 70%. Megacities, defined as cities with over 10 million people, are
becoming more common, and the concept of mega-regions, interconnected clusters of megacities, is
also gaining prominence. These megacities often face challenges in accurately determining their
population due to unclear boundaries and the inclusion of surrounding areas. Examples of megacities
include Sao Paulo, New York, and Tokyo, which is the largest megacity in the world.
China boasts the largest mega-region, consisting of megacities like Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and
Guangzhou. However, mega-regions can span multiple countries, as seen in West Africa, where
Nigeria, Benin, Togo, and Ghana form a mega-region. These mega-regions hold significant economic
power, with 66% of global economic activity and 85% of new technological and scientific
advancements occurring within the 40 largest mega-regions. Despite this, less than 20% of the global
population resides in these mega-regions.
In summary, urbanization continues to rise globally, with a majority of people living in cities.
Megacities and mega-regions are becoming more prevalent, driving economic growth and
technological advancements on a large scale. (Adapted from Reading Advantage)

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 44 to 50.
Once believed to be healthy, the idea of being overweight is now widely rejected. While many
individuals strive to shed pounds, studies are exploring the intricate mechanisms of appetite control,
involving both emotional and biochemical factors. The findings from these studies offer valuable
insights into tackling weight-related issues.
For instance, when hundreds of individuals were surveyed about their eating habits during
stressful situations, 44 percent admitted to resorting to food as a response. Further investigations with
both humans and animals revealed that it is not the consumption of food that alleviates tension, but
rather the act of chewing itself.
Blindfolded tests demonstrated that obese individuals have a heightened sense of taste and a
greater craving for flavorful food compared to non-obese individuals. Deprived of the diversity and
intensity of taste, obese individuals find themselves unsatisfied and consequently consume more food
in an attempt to fulfill this need. Blood samples taken from people after viewing pictures of food
showed that overweight individuals exhibited increased levels of blood insulin, a chemical associated
with appetite. This response was not observed in individuals of average weight.
Another experiment revealed that certain individuals possess a biologically induced hunger for
carbohydrates. Consuming carbohydrates triggers the release of serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the
brain. Sufficient levels of serotonin lead to a sense of satiety, reducing the craving for carbohydrates.
While exercise is often emphasized in weight-loss programs, research suggests that
incorporating mild physical activity into daily routines can be more beneficial in the long term
compared to engaging in intense workouts like jogging. Many people find it challenging to maintain a
consistent jogging routine for extended periods, and it can even lead to an increase in appetite. On the
other hand, simple activities such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator can have a more
sustainable impact on weight loss. (Adapted from Health Magazine)

A. Exploring the Complexities of Appetite Control and Weight Loss
B. The Role of Chewing and Taste Perception in Weight Management
C. The Link Between Blood Insulin Levels and Weight-Related Issues

Question 45: According to the passage, which statement about insulin is TRUE?
A. Insulin can be used to decrease appetite.
B. Insulin triggers a chemical reaction when food is consumed.
C. insulin decreases in the bloodstream when people eat large amounts of food.
D. Overweight individuals showed increased blood insulin levels in response to food images.
Question 46: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Overweight individuals have a stronger sense of taste and desire for flavorful food.
B. Blood samples showed increased levels of insulin in overweight individuals.
C. Eating carbohydrates stimulates the production of serotonin.
D. Strenuous activities prove more effective than mild exercise for weight loss.
