Question 13:

a. Mia: Exactly, and those habits also make them more confident when they start living or studying away from home.

b. Mia: My brother can cook simple meals and plan his bus route, so he rarely panics when our parents work late.

c. Ethan: That makes sense. Teenagers who practise small life skills usually solve daily problems with less stress.

Question 14:

a. Ben: Both, actually. I stay up to finish homework, and my phone keeps buzzing with group messages.

b. Ben: I know. Even when I sit down to study, I start worrying about marks before I open the book.

c. Lily: You have looked exhausted lately. Is it the exam schedule, or are you sleeping badly again?

d. Lily: Try putting the chat on mute for an hour and writing one short task list first.

e. Lily: That would wear anyone out. Too many deadlines and no quiet time can make school feel heavier than it is.

Question 15:

Dear Applicants,

Thank you for your message. We hope your week is going well.

a. Experiences like these often help students become more confident, responsible, and better at working with others in different situations.

b. The greatest benefit is not the certificate itself but the opportunity to develop useful skills through real community work.

c. If you would like to join next term, the sign-up form will open on Monday, and each new member can start with one project.

d. Last month, several of you asked what students could gain from joining our weekend community team.

e. For example, during our park clean-up, volunteers learned how to cooperate, solve unexpected problems, and see the positive results of their efforts.

Best regards,

Community Office

Question 16:

a. The problem is that these meals often contain too much salt, sugar, and fat while offering very little fibre or fresh nutrients.

b. This pattern can affect concentration, encourage unhealthy weight gain, and slowly turn convenience into a daily habit that is hard to break.

c. Many students grab fast food after class because it is cheap, quick, and easy to eat on the way home.

d. Fast food is not dangerous because of one burger or one box of fries; it becomes harmful when speed and taste replace balanced eating too often.

e. After eating them often, some teenagers feel full for a short time but become tired or hungry again surprisingly soon.

Question 17:

a. Schools become fairer when tasks, subjects, and opportunities are offered by interest and ability rather than by old assumptions about what each gender should prefer.

b. Gender equality is sometimes discussed as if it were only an adult issue, yet teenagers already see its effects in classrooms, clubs, and family expectations.

c. Examples like that do more than surprise people; they show that equal treatment helps talent appear more clearly, which benefits individuals and the whole community.

d. In one media project at our school, for instance, the strongest video editor was a boy who first joined only to write, while the most confident team leader was a girl from the robotics club.

e. When boys are pushed away from caring roles or girls are quietly discouraged from science and leadership, both groups lose chances to discover what they can do well.
