Explanation:

To determine the negative effect of daydreaming, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Daydreaming can actually help with connecting to abstract ideas, so this is not a negative effect.
• Option B: Passing a test without concentrating is not a negative effect (and is also unrealistic in most cases as concentration is needed for tests), so this is incorrect.
• Option C: Daydreaming doesn't relate to navigating familiar places without thinking in a negative way; this is not a typical negative effect of daydreaming.
• Option D: Daydreaming too much can make a person become disconnected from real - life events, which is a negative consequence.

Answer:

D. becoming disconnected from real life events
