Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

A few years ago, most teenagers learned history mainly from textbooks and classroom lessons. Today, many young people also learn about the past from something very different: short videos on TikTok. In just sixty seconds, a creator might explain a famous battle, a forgotten queen, or a major historical event. These videos are fast, colorful, and easy to watch, which makes them extremely popular with teenagers around the world.

Supporters say this trend makes history far more accessible than before. Not every student enjoys reading long textbook chapters, but almost everyone enjoys a short, exciting video. Because these clips are so easy to find and share, many teenagers now discover historical topics they might never have explored otherwise. Some creators even say their videos encourage viewers to research a topic more deeply afterward.

However, other people are far less convinced. Critics argue that sixty seconds is simply not enough time to explain something as complicated as history. Important details often get left out, and some creators focus more on dramatic storytelling than on accuracy. Without enough context, viewers might end up believing an oversimplified or even incorrect version of real events.

So far, nobody fully agrees on whether this trend is helpful or harmful. What does seem clear is that TikTok has become an unexpected new classroom for millions of teenagers. Whether this is truly good for how young people understand history is still very much an open question.

Modern astronauts must carefully choose what they eat to survive during extremely long space missions, but traditionally, these brave explorers have relied mostly on dried and heavily packaged meals. However, scientists quickly realized that eating the exact same boring food for several months becomes frustrating. As international space agencies plan massive future missions to Mars, researchers must provide fresh daily vitamins. Because a complete round trip to the distant red planet takes several years, carrying enough packaged food is physically impossible. To solve this complicated agricultural problem, brilliant engineers developed a specialized growth system called Veggie, which currently operates safely on the International Space Station. To solve this complicated agricultural problem, brilliant engineers developed a special hydroponic system called Veggie, which currently operates safely on the International Space Station. In this unique environment without natural gravity, astronauts successfully grow fresh green lettuce and spicy chili peppers. The metal station lacks direct sunlight, so they use artificial pink LED lights to help the young plants grow rapidly. Furthermore, psychologists note that taking careful care of these small green plants significantly improves the mental health of isolated crew members. Human beings will eventually travel to build new modern cities on Mars, and the first historical pioneers will certainly be skilled farmers. By combining modern scientific technology with traditional farming skills, humanity can successfully survive among the distant stars.

Crew members use colored artificial lights to make their vegetables grow faster.
