Question 13:

a. Leo: That hits hard, because I train useful skills every week, but I am not sure I practise that one until it costs me something.

b. Leo: Everyone says AI will master everything, but what human skill do you think it still cannot truly replace in the next twenty years?

c. Mia: Moral courage, maybe—the moment when a person risks comfort, status, or safety to do what feels right.

Question 14:

a. Omar: If they cannot do that soon, students may stop seeing tuition as an investment and start seeing it as a delay.

b. Omar: Google and Apple keep hiring people without degrees, so what exactly is university still selling us?

c. Ivy: Maybe not the diploma itself; the real question is whether schools can prove they build judgment, not just test memory.

d. Omar: Then why do so many courses still feel frozen, while the market changes every six months?

e. Ivy: That is the point—they should answer with labs, industry projects, and faster retraining paths, not thicker brochures.

Question 15:

Dear Aunt Claire,

How have you been? I hope the café is busy this month.

a. Still, that freedom is thinner than it looks when one illness, one bad rating, or one quiet week can erase your income overnight.

b. So I would call it progress only when laws, unions, or companies build protections strong enough to make that freedom real.

c. You asked why so many young people around me choose gig work even when it offers no insurance or pension.

d. Some platforms sell flexibility as if it were security, which is why the model can become a polished trap for workers with few savings.

e. I understand the appeal, because driving, designing, or tutoring through apps can feel like owning your time at last.

Best,

Question 16:

a. This does not make knowledge useless; it means facts should be taught as case material through which students practise transfer, not as cargo to store untouched.

b. When a technical skill can fade in value within five years, a school that only delivers fixed content is quietly preparing students for expiration.

c. A graduate from such a system may forget formulas, tools, or software versions, yet still know how to enter a new field and become useful again.

d. In that model, classes would spend less time rewarding perfect recall and more time on revision, feedback, collaboration, and rebuilding after mistakes.

e. What should last longer is the ability to learn in public: framing questions, testing ideas, spotting weak evidence, and adapting without panic.

Question 17:

a. It is too easy to call this disruption natural and tell workers to “reskill” in their spare time, as if the collapse of a profession were a private scheduling problem.

b. Media owners and governments also share that duty, because they benefit from automation while still needing a healthy information ecosystem.

c. Otherwise, society gets cheaper content in the short term and a thinner, more fragile public sphere in the long term.

d. As AI begins to draft headlines, clean transcripts, optimise SEO copy, and even produce serviceable articles in seconds, many reporters, editors, and copywriters are not losing talent but losing the market price of tasks that once paid their rent.

e. The companies building and profiting from these systems should fund retraining, especially when their tools were trained on the language patterns, archives, and labour of the very industries now being weakened.
