The Russian fascination with Adidas is often mocked as a joke about tracksuits, yet the cultural weight of the brand developed from a more
complicated history than what the stereotype alone would suggest. During the late Soviet period, Adidas became one of the most recognizable
Western sports labels visible behind the Iron Curtain, especially through the 1980 Moscow Olympics, where its designs helped shape how modern
athletic prestige looked on television and in public memory. Soviet authorities were uneasy about openly displaying capitalist branding, but the very
need to modify or mute the label only reinforced its symbolic power: people knew what they were seeing even when the logo was reduced or
disguised.
After the Soviet collapse, that symbolic charge changed rather than disappearing. Adidas tracksuits became attached to the youth urban
subculture in Russia and to broader post-Soviet street culture, where they could signal toughness, aspiration, irony, or simple practicality all at once.
In other words, the brand survived not merely as sportswear, but as a social language. That is why the “obsession” is easy to oversimplify: it was
never only about fashion, and not even always about admiration. Adidas in Russia came to represent a rare convergence of scarcity, global modernity,
class performance, and meme-ready recognizability, which helps explain why it remained culturally vivid long after its first Soviet associations had
faded.
36. What is the main purpose of the passage?
(A) To argue that Adidas became popular in Russia because it was inexpensive.
(B) To explain why Adidas acquired cultural significance in Russia beyond simple fashion.
(C) To prove that all Russians admired Western brands equally.
(D) To show that Soviet citizens cared little about athletic clothing.
37. According to the passage, why did muted or altered branding strengthen Adidas’s symbolic power?
(A) Because people could not identify the brand anymore.
(B) Because the hidden logo made the clothing look more luxurious.
(C) Because people still recognized the brand despite official discomfort with it.
(D) Because Adidas required Soviet officials to change the design.
38. In the passage, the word “vivid” most nearly means _____.
(A) vibrant and striking (B) legally protected
(C) commercially stable (D) technically advanced
39. Why does the author mention the youth urban subculture and street culture?
(A) To argue that Adidas had no connection to street culture.
(B) To show one important way the brand’s meaning changed after the Soviet collapse.
(C) To prove that all tracksuited youths were criminals.
(D) To suggest that sportswear disappeared from public life.
40. Which statement best reflects the author’s view?
(A) Adidas remained important in Russia because it represented several meanings at once.
(B) Adidas mattered only during the 1980 Olympics.
(C) The Russian interest in Adidas was entirely ironic from the beginning.
(D) The brand’s significance came solely from official Soviet approval.
Published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, the study followed over 20,000 adults in Sweden for nearly two decades. Participants,
aged 35 to 64 at the start, reported how much time they spent sitting and what activities they engaged in. Over the course of the study, 569 individuals
developed dementia. Researchers found a clear distinction between mentally passive and mentally active sedentary behaviors. Those who spent more
time in passive activities had a significantly higher risk of developing dementia, whereas those who engaged in mentally stimulating activities while
sitting had a lower risk.
The researchers also explored how behavior changes might influence outcomes. Replacing one hour of passive sedentary time with mentally
active activities was associated with about a 7% reduction in dementia risk. Simply adding an extra hour of mentally engaging activity reduced risk
by 4%, while combining cognitive engagement with physical activity led to an even greater reduction of 11%.
Mentally passive behaviors require little cognitive effort and include activities like watching TV or passively listening to music. In contrast,
mentally active behaviors involve attention, problem-solving, or interaction—such as reading, doing puzzles, knitting, or engaging in thoughtful
computer work. Even if two people spend the same amount of time sitting, the cognitive effects can differ greatly depending on the activity.
One explanation for these findings is that the brain benefits from regular stimulation. Engaging in mentally challenging tasks helps maintain
neural connections and builds “cognitive reserve,” the brain’s ability to adapt to aging. Passive activities, especially when prolonged, may fail to
stimulate these processes and could even reduce blood flow due to extended inactivity. Additionally, engaging activities are often more social or
interactive and may support better sleep—both factors linked to improved cognitive health.
41. What is the main finding of the study discussed in the passage?
(A) Sitting for long periods always leads to dementia.
(B) All sedentary activities have the same effect on brain health.
(C) Physical activity has no impact on dementia risk.
(D) Mentally passive activities increase dementia risk, while active ones may reduce it.
42. Which of the following is an example of a mentally active sedentary behavior?
(A) Watching television. (B) Listening to music passively.
(C) Reading a book. (D) Sitting quietly without doing anything.
43. According to the study, what happens if one hour of passive sedentary time is replaced with active sedentary behavior?
(A) Dementia risk increases by 7%. (B) Dementia risk decreases by about 7%.
(C) There is no change in dementia risk. (D) Dementia risk decreases by 11%.

44. Why might mentally passive activities lead to a higher risk of dementia? (A) They do not sufficiently stimulate neural connections. (B) They require too much brain activity. (C) They improve blood flow to the brain. (D) They increase social interaction.

45. What additional benefit is associated with combining mentally active behavior with physical activity? (A) It eliminates the risk of dementia entirely. (B) It reduces dementia risk more than either alone. (C) It has no measurable effect. (D) It only improves physical health, not brain health. 

46. According to the proposed pedagogical model, what is the primary factor determining which variety of English a learner should be exposed to? (A) The learner's geographical location and local dialect. (B) The learner's current level of linguistic proficiency. (C) The specific professional field the learner intends to enter. (D) The personal preference of the teacher regarding British or American English.

47. Which of the following best describes the shift in learning objectives mentioned in the second paragraph? (A) A move from focusing on grammatical accuracy to a focus on phonetic perfection. (B) A transition from understanding non-native accents to mastering a single native variety. (C) An increased emphasis on identifying and correcting minor syntactic errors. (D) A shift from aiming for native-speaker mimicry toward achieving communicative competence.
48. In the context of evaluation, how is "success" measured under this new pedagogical suggestion?
(A) By the student's effectiveness in completing a communicative task.
(B) By the absence of phonological and lexical errors.
(C) By the student’s ability to avoid using low-frequency words.
(D) By the student’s ability to sound like a native speaker of British English.
49. According to the text, what is the specific role of "peripheral features" in English as an International Language?
(A) They act as barriers that prevent effective communication between different L1 speakers.
(B) They allow speakers to express and exchange their distinct cultural identities and lifestyles.
(C) They serve as the primary grammar rules that all beginners must master first.
(D) They represent errors that will eventually be phased out as English continues to develop.
50. The mention of "kongfu" and "fengshui" serves to illustrate which of the following points?
(A) The difficulty native speakers have when learning Chinese-influenced English.
(B) The requirement for advanced students to use only high-frequency vocabulary.
(C) The process by which localized, peripheral features can become part of the shared core.
