Question One: Reading
For items (1-2), read each one carefully then choose from A,B,C or D the correct answer.
Professor Ellen Pader from the University of Massachusetts, who has published research on the impact of space on relationships, believes a major benefit of sharing space with others is that you learn respect for other people, and you also learn to negotiate with people, instead of just withdrawing when things get difficult. In many western countries, there is an assumption that we all need privacy, but this is not a universally shared belief. In Mexico, for example, according to Pader’s research, people often prefer to share bedrooms and bathrooms because being alone feels like a punishment.

For some, it’s the only way to afford a home, but for others it’s a lifestyle choice, offering a way of living more ecologically and less wastefully. Living in a small space means that you have to get rid of your excess possessions. It also forces you to go out and engage with the rest of the world.
