Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
Choosing a career path is a significant decision that can shape one’s future, and individuals
often grapple with the choice between pursuing their passions or following current trends. Passion -
driven careers stem from deep personal interests and values, which can lead to greater job
satisfaction and fulfillment. For instance, someone passionate about environmental conservation may
choose to work in sustainability, advocating for eco-friendly practices. In contrast, opting for a career
based on trends may lead to a more stable income, but it can sometimes result in discontent if the
individual lacks a genuine interest in the field.
The allure of trending careers often stems from the perceived security and financial
benefits associated with them. Fields such as technology, finance, and healthcare have attracted
significant attention due to their robust job markets and competitive salaries. However, pursuing
these paths solely for financial gain can sometimes lead to burnout or dissatisfaction. This situation
forces individuals to weigh the benefits of job security against the risks of engaging in work that
does not match their intrinsic motivations.
To illustrate this tension, consider the example of a talented artist who is passionate about
painting. Despite their love for art, they may feel pressured to abandon their passion for a more
lucrative career in digital marketing, which is currently trending. On the other hand, a tech-savvy
individual who finds joy in coding may thrive in the rapidly evolving field of software development.
The choice ultimately hinges on whether the individual prioritizes their passion for art over the
financial incentives of a trending career or seeks a balance that allows for personal fulfillment
alongside economic stability.
Ultimately, the decision to choose a career based on passion or trend is deeply personal and
varies for each individual. While following one’s passion can lead to a more enriching and satisfying
career, it may not always provide the financial security that trending fields offer. Conversely,
pursuing a career driven by trends might lead to short-term gains but can potentially leave
individuals feeling unfulfilled in the long run. It is essential for individuals to engage in self-
reflection and consider their values, interests, and long-term goals when navigating the complex
landscape of career choices.

Question 23. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a potential benefit or drawback

taken for granted.
D. Job seekers are guaranteed to pick trending careers because of the job stability and
