During times of crisis, people find themselves faced with lifestyle changes One of the earliest and most noticeable changes seen during the Covid-19 lockdown was how we consume media-and, especially how we read

People tend to find comfort in certain books, and reading habits and genre preferences can change during periods of stress This helps to explain why much genre fiction has roots in times of significant social, political

or economic upheaval Gothic literature is, in part, a British Protestant response to the French Revolution Respondents generally reported that they were reading more than usual This was largely due to having

more free time (due to being furloughed, or not having a commute or the usual social obligation or leisure

activities) This increased reading volume was complicated for those with caring responsibilities Many people with children reported that their reading time had increased generally because of their shared reading with children, but had less time than normal for personal reading Reading frequency was further complicated by a quality vs quantity snag People spent more time reading and seeking escape, but an inability to concentrate

meant they made less progress than usual In short, people spent more time reading but the volume they read

was less

Unsurprisingly, lockdown also made re-reading a physical necessity for some Some respondents noted how they were unable to visit the library or browse at the bookshop for new books Others reported that they simply wished to save money On the other hand, the participants who reported re-reading less than normal during the lockdown period wanted to use their newfound time to seek out new topics and genres

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 from 36 to 42

Australians place a high value on independence and personal choice This means that a teacher or course

tutor will not tell students what to do, but will give them a number of options and suggest they work out which

one is the best in their circumstances It also means that they are expected to take action if something goes wrong and seek out resources and support for themselves

Australians are also prepared to accept a range of opinions rather than believing there is one truth This means that in an educational setting, students will be expected to form their own opinions and defend the reasons for that point of view and the evidence for it

Australians are uncomfortable with differences in status and hence idealize the idea of treating everyone

equally An illustration of this is that most adult Australians call each other by their first names This concern with equality means that Australians are uncomfortable taking anything too seriously and are even ready to joke about themselves

Australians believe that life should have a balance between work and leisure time As a consequence,

some students may be critical of others who they perceive as doing nothing but study

Australian notions of privacy mean that areas such as financial matters, appearance, and relationships are only discussed with close friends While people may volunteer such information, they may resent someone actually asking them unless the friendship is firmly established Even then, it is considered very impolite to ask someone what they earn With older people, it is also rude to ask how old they are, why they are not married, or why they do not have children It is also impolite to ask people how much they have paid for something unless there is a very good reason for asking
