Section 1: Reading Passage

Eleanor had always been reluctant to trust new people. Growing up in a small town, she learned early that appearances could be deceiving, and often, those who seemed most genuine had hidden motives. When she moved to the city for college, the bustling streets and unfamiliar faces overwhelmed her, yet she was eager to find a place where she belonged. One rainy afternoon, she stumbled into a quiet bookstore tucked between towering apartment buildings. The scent of old paper and coffee welcomed her, and as she browsed the shelves, she noticed a young man struggling to reach a book on the top shelf. Without hesitation, Eleanor offered to help. Their conversation quickly revealed shared interests, and she sensed a genuine kindness in his eyes. Over the next few weeks, they met regularly at the bookstore, discussing everything from literature to life ambitions. Eleanor began to feel herself opening up in ways she hadn’t before. One evening, as she left the store, she found a small note tucked inside her favorite novel: 'Sometimes, trusting someone new is the first step to discovering who you really are.' The message struck a chord in her heart, and for the first time, Eleanor wondered if perhaps her initial instincts might sometimes be wrong.
