Question 13:

Question 14:

a. Hana: That might be a ghost kitchen—same building, different online brands, so quality can vary.

b. Hana: Take photos and report it in the app; they usually refund, and you can block that brand.

c. Leo: My noodles arrived cold, and the receipt shows a kitchen name I’ve never heard of.

d. Leo: Good call—I’ll message support and stick to places with real reviews and pickup options.

e. Leo: So it wasn’t a scam? I’m also worried they reused packaging because it smelled odd.

Question 15:

Dear Mina,

How are things at your new school? I’m fine, just busy after classes.

a. To deal with that, she let us set up a “take-what-you-need” shelf near the exit and label items with QR codes.

b. Our cafeteria throws away trays of untouched fruit, so a few of us formed a “Food Waste Warriors” team.

c. Seeing classmates grab food instead of dumping it makes the campaign feel real, not just a poster.

d. We weighed leftovers for a week, and the numbers shocked the principal.

e. I also use an app that sells surprise boxes from nearby bakeries at closing time, which my family loves.

Write back when you can.

Best,
Jenny

Question 16:

a. At a small farm in a renovated shipping container near my train station, workers harvest basil at 6 a.m. and deliver it to cafés before lunch.

b. Vertical farming grows crops in stacked layers inside warehouses, often right in the city.

c. That short trip cuts spoilage and packaging, although the electricity bill can be heavy if the lights run all day, which is a real challenge for small startups.

d. With cheaper clean energy, this approach could supply fresh greens year-round, but it won’t replace open fields for rice or corn in most countries.

e. Because the light, temperature, and nutrients are controlled by LEDs and sensors, the plants need far less water and no pesticides, even when outdoor weather is extreme.

Question 17:

a. Still, many people hesitate because the idea sounds unnatural, and they worry about safety, taste, or who controls the process.

b. This is why clear labeling and strict inspections matter: they can build trust without pretending the product is the same as a farm steak.

c. Lab-grown meat, made from animal cells in bioreactors, is often promoted as a way to cut the land and water used by livestock.

d. If prices drop and farmers can join the supply chain by producing feedstock or renewable energy for facilities, lab-grown meat could eventually become a useful option, not a threat.

e. In one podcast, a chef said the first burgers were pricey and bland, but newer batches improved once companies adjusted fat levels and texture.
