Read the following passage and write the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

In many cities, teenagers do not have large gardens, but some of them are now creating tiny green spaces in their bedrooms. They grow small plants on desks, windows, or shelves. Some choose herbs like mint or basil, while others prefer easy plants that need little water. Short videos online have made this hobby more popular, especially among teens who want their rooms to feel calmer.

For many young people, these little gardens are not only for decoration. Taking care of a plant gives them a small daily task. They need to check the soil, add water, and move the plant if it needs more light. Some teens say this simple habit helps them slow down after a busy school day. It also gives them a break from screens, which are a big part of modern life.

Not every teen becomes a plant expert, of course. Some plants die because their owners forget to water them or choose the wrong place. Still, many teenagers do not give up. They simply try again with a stronger plant. Because of this, the hobby teaches patience as well as care. In a fast world, even a tiny plant can help a teenager feel steadier.

Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?

The word calmer in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.

The word it in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

According to the passage, what do many teens do when their plants die?

Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
