Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
According to some Canadian news media, university students don't like to share their own cultures with each other and are not keen to learn about new ones. However, a study conducted earlier this year at the University of Winnipeg found the opposite.
Its aim was to gauge undergraduate students' attitude towards cultural identity and cultural diversity. It was influenced by the findings of a 2021 study that examined how nine daily Canadian newspapers defined the term multiculturalism'.
The current study included 10 undergraduate students who participated in two discussions about culture and heritage. All participants agreed on the importance of multiculturalism. Seven of them had arrived in Canada in the last 10 years from different places including the Philippines, Pakistan, and Nigeria. The students talked about where they, their parents, and their grandparents came from, discussing everything from language to festivals, religion, and traditions. Three groups of students emerged. The first group maintained a strong connection with their heritage culture and values, and shared stories about their customs and how they made sure they didn't forget their heritage language. For example, one of them still liked listening to music in his home language. The second group felt a sense of belonging to a blend of cultures. They were exposed to different cultures when they grew up, however, they were open to and interested in experiencing other cultures through festivals and friends. The third group had experienced language and culture loss through the process of becoming Canadians. Although they were sad about that loss, they still felt enthusiastic about enriching Canadian culture and making it more diverse.

Edward Alexander Bouchet was a brilliant scientist who broke down barriers for African Americans. In a time when opportunities were rare for people of color, he achieved something remarkable: in 1876, he became the first African American to earn a Ph.D. in any field from an American university. His chosen field was physics, and he graduated from the prestigious Yale University.
Bouchet's achievements are even more extraordinary when considering the challenges he faced. During the late 19th century, most African American children had difficulty going to school, and racial discrimination was widespread. Even with his groundbreaking doctorate, Bouchet struggled to find a position that matched his qualifications. Universities refused to hire him because of his race.
Despite these setbacks, Bouchet dedicated his career to education. He spent over two decades teaching physics and chemistry at the Institute for Colored Youth in Philadelphia, which was a high school. Although the school had limited resources, Bouchet worked tirelessly to inspire his students.
Bouchet's determination and intellect paved the way for future generations of African American scientists. While true equality in the scientific community took many years to achieve, his pioneering spirit helped to challenge the prejudices of his time and demonstrated that academic excellence was not limited by race.

A. An Example of Racial Discrimination

B. scarce
C. additional

C. After retiring, Bouchet started doing lots of physical experiments and became famous.
D. Bouchet proved that anyone could achieve academic excellence no matter what race they were.

Keeping Your Home Safe: Simple Steps to Deter Burglars
In recent times, our community has faced a rise in the number of home burglaries. This troubling trend highlights the need for all of us to take proactive steps to secure our homes and protect our loved ones. Here are several effective measures you can implement to minimize the risk of your home becoming a target for thieves.
Lock Your Doors and Windows: It may sound obvious, but the first step in home security is to ensure that all doors and windows are locked, especially when you are away or sleeping. Surprisingly, many burglaries happen because intruders simply walk through unlocked doors. Double-check locks on all entry points, and consider upgrading to high-quality deadbolts.
Light Up Your Home: A well-lit home is a major deterrent for burglars. Install motion-sensor lights around the perimeter of your house, particularly at entry points. These lights can startle potential intruders, making them think twice about breaking in.
Install an Alarm System: Alarm systems are great tools for home security. They not only alert you and your neighbors of a possible intrusion but also can directly notify the police. Many modern systems include cameras that you can monitor via your smartphone, giving you peace of mind no matter where you are.
Keep Valuables Out of Sight: Avoid leaving expensive items where they can be easily seen from outside. If a burglar sees valuable items through a window, it might tempt them more. Always store such items away from view and use curtains or blinds to cover your windows, especially at night.
Be Mindful About Social Media: Be cautious about what you post on social media. Announcing vacations or trips can signal to burglars that your house will be empty. It’s best to post about trips after you have returned home.
Get to Know Your Neighbors: Neighbors can be invaluable in keeping an eye on your home when you are not around. Joining a neighborhood watch program can significantly enhance security through mutual cooperation and alertness.
By implementing these simple measures, you can significantly lower the chances of your home being burgled. Remember, the key to home security is prevention and awareness. Let’s work together to keep our homes and community safe.
