Question 13:

a. Nora: Nice, but did you check its sources? My cousin trusted one answer, and the example turned out to be old.

b. Ethan: I used an AI app to make a biology quiz, and the diagrams helped me review faster.

c. Ethan: I did. I matched it with our textbook, kept the diagrams, and rewrote the notes myself.

Question 14:

a. Ben: Kind of. My screen time got bad again, and I kept checking our class group chat after midnight.

b. Ben: Not really, because I worry I’ll miss something important from the teachers.

c. Ava: You looked exhausted in math today. Are you still staying up to finish every task?

d. Ava: I used to feel that way, but now I read everything at 6 a.m., and the late-night stress is gone.

e. Ava: That explains it. Have you tried focus mode or turning off notifications for an hour?

Question 15:

Dear Residents,

I hope your week has been going well. Thank you for your patience over the past few days.

a. During that time, volunteers will guide older residents, and printed instructions will be available for anyone who does not use mobile payment.

b. To reduce long lines and cash handling, the management board will begin a new card-based laundry booking system next Monday.

c. If the trial works well, the same model may later be used for the reading room and the shared study hall.

d. We understand that any change in a familiar routine can be inconvenient at first, especially for families with busy schedules.

e. For this reason, the old paper sign-up sheet will remain beside the machines for two weeks while everyone gets used to the update.

Best regards,

Building Office

Question 16:

a. When I checked the settings, I found saved addresses, contact access, and a long list of marketing partners I had never noticed before.

b. Instead of deleting the app immediately, I turned off tracking, cleared old permissions, and wrote a complaint through the help center.

c. I used to think privacy warnings were exaggerated until a food-delivery app sent me ads for a clinic I had searched only once on my laptop.

d. The experience did not make me fear technology, but it did teach me that digital services earn trust only when they explain clearly what data they take and why.

e. That coincidence felt less like convenience than being watched, especially when the app also kept asking for my location after the order arrived.

Question 17:

a. Although some of his stories were difficult to hear, the honesty in his reflections created a sense of connection that felt both personal and communal.

b. As the veteran began speaking, the room shifted into a quieter space, and his steady voice carried a weight that drew everyone closer to the experiences he had endured.

c. By the end, I realised that the speech had reshaped my understanding of courage, leaving a lingering respect for those who serve.

d. What struck me most was not only his resilience but also the calm clarity with which he explained the cost of preserving peace.

e. When my friend invited me to a gathering where a veteran would share his wartime memories, I immediately agreed, unsure of what the evening might reveal.
