Passage: The Impact of Plastic Pollution
플라스틱 오염은 현재 가장 시급한 환경 문제 중 하나입니다. 매년 수백만 톤의 플라스틱 쓰레기가 바다와 매립지로 흘러들어가 야생 동물에게 해를 끼치고 생태계를 방해합니다. 해양 동물들은 종종 플라스틱을 섭취하거나 얽히게 되어 부상이나 죽음에 이르게 됩니다. 게다가 플라스틱은 미세 플라스틱으로 분해되어 식품 사슬에 들어갈 수 있어 동물과 인간 모두에게 건강 위험을 초래합니다. 플라스틱 오염에 대처하기 위한 노력으로는 재활용 이니셔티브, 일회용 플라스틱 금지, 그리고 플라스틱 소비를 줄이기 위한 공공 인식 캠페인이 포함됩니다.

Passage: The Benefits of Learning a Second Language
제2외국어를 배우는 것은 여러 가지 인지적 및 사회적 이점을 제공합니다. 두 개 이상의 언어를 사용하는 사람들은 여러 작업 간 전환이 더 효율적이기 때문에 기억력이 향상되고 멀티태스킹 능력이 개선됩니다. 게다가 제2외국어를 아는 것은 문화 교류와 여행의 기회를 열어주며, 개인이 다양한 배경을 가진 사람들과 연결될 수 있게 합니다. 연구에 따르면, 이중 언어를 구사하는 사람들은 표준화된 시험에서 더 나은 성적을 내는 경향이 있으며 다양한 문화에 대한 이해도가 높습니다. 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 많은 사람들이 시간 제약과 어려운 인식 때문에 새로운 언어를 배우는 데 어려움을 겪습니다.
