đȘïž Passage 1: Hurricanes and Human Impact (Informational)
Hurricanes are powerful tropical storms defined by high winds, heavy rain, and swirling low-pressure systems. These storms develop over warm ocean waters, gaining strength as they absorb heat and moisture from the surface.
As they approach land, hurricanes can lead to widespread destruction: flooding, structural damage, and power outages are common. Meteorologists and emergency workers work to forecast storms early, but the unpredictable nature of hurricane paths makes this difficult.
Climate change is also complicating matters. Warmer ocean temperatures are linked to stronger, longer-lasting hurricanes. As a result, many coastal cities are reevaluating building codes and emergency plans to adapt to increasingly extreme weather.
What is the central idea of the passage âHurricanes and Human Impactâ?
Hurricanes are most dangerous after landfall
Climate change causes flooding and damage
Hurricanes are destructive and becoming more intense due to climate change
Most cities are well prepared for hurricanes

đ± Passage 3: Digital Nightmares (Informational)
In a recent study, researchers found that students who use screens in the hour before bed report higher levels of anxiety and fatigue the next morning. The study surveyed over 800 teenagers across five states and tracked their sleep quality using wearable monitors.
The results showed that even just 30 minutes of pre-sleep screen timeâespecially scrolling on social mediaâwas associated with delayed REM sleep, which plays a vital role in memory and emotional regulation.
Although the researchers acknowledged other factors at play, such as stress and school workload, they emphasized screen habits as a key contributor to poor sleep in adolescents.
What is the central idea of the passage âDigital Nightmaresâ?
Students are more tired now than in the past
Pre-bedtime screen use negatively affects teen sleep quality
REM sleep is the most important type of sleep
Social media is more harmful than video games
