All over the country, young people are entering a world of homelessness and poverty,
according to a recent report by the housing group, Shelter.
Nearly 150,000 young people aged between sixteen and twenty-five will become
homeless this year, says Shelter. Some of the young homeless may sleep out in the open in
such places as the "cardboard city” in London, where people of all ages sleep in the open air in
their only homes - cardboard boxes. Others may find accommodation in shelters run by
voluntary organisations or get a place in a hostel, which gives them board up to ten weeks.
But who are these people? Those who are seeking a roof over their heads are mostly not
runaways but “throwaways" - people who have been thrown out of their homes or forced to
leave because of parental divorce, an unsympathetic step-parent or one of many other reasons.
Take the case of one sixteen-year-old schoolgirl, Alice. She did not come from a poor
home and had just passed her exams with good results. The Shelter team met her in a hostel
where she was doing her physics homework. Her parents had thrown her out of her home for
no other reason that she wanted to do Science Advanced Level Exams - which her parents
refused her permission to do, saying that studying sciences was unladylike!

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.
Along with the rapid growth of the national economy and increased living standards, the
use of disposables and over-packaged products has become common, which causes a waste of
resources, and brings about a negative impact on the environment. Many countries have
started to act to control the use of disposables and over-packaged products.
In 1994, the Ministry of Environment in Korea has put restrictions on packaging
methods. Korea's legal regulations require businesses to restrict their use of disposable
products by reducing unnecessary packaging materials or not giving them out to customers for
free. The use of materials are difficult to recycle is also prohibited.
Thanks to development of technology, biodegradable materials were invented to produce
packaging products. They are able to decay naturally by bacteria. Therefore, biodegradable
packaging helps to limit the amount of harmful chemicals released into the environment. In
2008, biodegradable bags were put in use in most of the supermarkets in Korea. Paper cups
and paper bags are also given to shoppers for free, but in a limited use.
The ministry also established the detailed Guidelines on the Restrictions of Use of
Disposable Products in order to ensure that local governments could conduct systematic
checks and inspections of businesses, and implemented reductions on over-packaged products
during national holidays, and school admission and graduation seasons.
