The only way to get better in Reading is by reading a lot and analysing your mistakes. There are no tricks or strategies that exist. I encourage my students to analyse their mistakes as thoroughly as possible. After careful analysis done in this manner, they make a keyword table to see how the paraphrase is used.

How to work hard
Are you really interested in x, or do you want to work on it because you'll make a lot of money, or because other people will be impressed with you, or because your parents want you to?

In some countries, young people have become richer, healthier and live longer, but they are less happy.
What are the causes?
What can be done to address this situation?
It’s a curious phenomenon: in certain countries, the younger generation is wealthier, healthier, and living longer than ever before, and yet they’re somehow less happy. This isn’t just a fluke; it’s a real, measurable trend. And once you look at it more closely, you start to see a pattern of expectations, social pressures, and misaligned incentives that add up to leave people feeling dissatisfied.
One explanation is that humans (especially young humans) are sensitive to relative status. Having more money than your parents used to be a big deal, because in many places wealth was scarce, and having extra income was a sign of significant progress. Now, for the young, the goalposts have shifted. It’s not just about being comfortable; it’s about matching or outdoing what you see on social media. There’s always someone on Instagram living a seemingly more exciting life, making you feel like you’re behind. If you’re perpetually worried about how you rank compared to everyone else, you’re basically engineering your own dissatisfaction.
Another factor is that, as societies get richer, you start seeing an explosion of choice. At first, that’s liberating; you can be anything, do anything, live anywhere. But too many options can be paralyzing. Paradoxically, the same freedom that promises self-fulfillment can lead to second-guessing, fear of missing out, and an inability to commit. The result is a collective sense of being unmoored. If you spend your twenties and early thirties perpetually sampling different paths, it’s easy to feel behind or like you don’t have a solid foundation.
What can be done? First, there’s an individual component. If you know that comparing yourself to others is a trap, then it’s worth making a conscious effort to avoid it. You can’t fix social media as a whole, but you can change how you engage with it—mute the voices that make you feel anxious, and replace them with ones that inspire you in a more constructive way. Second, there’s a social aspect. Communities that foster real human connections—sports clubs, volunteer groups, small gatherings, mentorship networks—remind people that happiness is more about belonging than acquiring a list of achievements. If governments or local communities can create more shared spaces and opportunities for people to engage in something meaningful, that sense of isolation often diminishes.
Ultimately, money, health, and life expectancy are all valuable achievements for a society. But happiness doesn’t track them perfectly; it’s influenced by subtle and sometimes counterintuitive factors. The more we can align our incentives—personal, social, and even economic—with genuine well-being rather than an endless pursuit of status, the more likely we’ll be to see a reemergence of happiness alongside material progress. It won’t be a quick fix, but recognizing the gap between what we expect and what truly makes us happy is the first step toward bridging it.

The seventeenth-century English philosopher John Locke was the first westerner to describe synesthesia - a condition that triggers experiences in another sense, including seeing colors when hearing music or tasting flavors when reading words. He wrote about a man who experienced bright red as the sound of the trumpet. Later, the condition excited the Imagination of nineteenth-century European painters, such as the non-synesthete Wassily Kandinsky, who believed synesthetes were 'like good, much-played violins, which vibrate in all their parts and fibres.'

Kandinsky describes synesthetes as being “like good, much-played violins, which vibrate in all their parts and fibres.” This metaphor somehow implies admiration; he’s comparing synesthetes to finely tuned instruments that respond beautifully and completely to artistic stimuli. Violins that are played often and well are usually regarded with respect and praise.
