Question 13:
a. Ben: Oh, it’s been one of those hectic days, you know? I woke up late this morning and had to rush
through my whole routine. I barely had time for breakfast.
b. Anna: Hey Ben, how’s your day been so far? You seem a bit tired.
c. Anna: I know the feeling. I had a busy morning too, but I tried to start my day slowly. I find that it helps
me feel less stressed.

Question 14:
a. James: Smart homes are amazing! I mean, you can control everything—the lights, the temperature, even
the coffee maker—with just your voice. But sometimes I wonder if we're getting a bit too comfortable.
Like, I don’t even have to leave my bed to turn on the lights now.
b. James: I totally agree! From the moment I wake up, my phone is the first thing I check. I use it for
everything, from setting alarms to checking the weather and even tracking my sleep.
c. Emily: Hey James, have you noticed how much technology is becoming a part of our daily routines? It's
almost impossible to imagine a day without it.
d. Emily: Haha, that’s true. It’s kind of convenient, but also a little strange when you think about it. I
recently read about smart refrigerators that can keep track of your groceries and even order food for you
when you run out. It's like we’re living in a sci-fi movie.
e. Emily: Same here! I can't even remember the last time I used an old-fashioned alarm clock. But it’s
crazy to think about how reliant we've become on our devices. What do you think about the rise of
smart home technology?

Question 15:
Dear Sarah,
a. Actually, I’ve been thinking about organizing a local event – maybe a community clean-up or a
sustainability workshop – to get more people involved and raise awareness. It could be a great way to
inspire others to take action, and it would be fun, too. What do you think?
b. Also, I came across a few local organizations that are working on environmental projects like tree
planting and habitat restoration. It could be really rewarding for us to volunteer with them, maybe even
together. If you’re interested, I’d love to get involved in one of these initiatives with you!
c. It’s great to hear from you! I completely agree with you. Small changes do add up. I’ve also been
supporting local farmers’ markets and reducing food waste by planning meals better. I’ve started
composting, too!
d. As for encouraging others, I’ve been talking to my friends about using less plastic, and a few of them
have started bringing reusable bags. I think starting small and sharing ideas is key.
e. Keep up the great work, and I’ll keep thinking of more ways we can help the environment together.
Let’s catch up soon!
Best,
LK

Question 17:
a. As central banks pursue expansionary monetary policies, many investors turn to gold as a hedge against
currency devaluation and inflation.

measures in place, the value of fiat currencies has weakened, making gold an attractive alternative.

leads to lower gold prices, while a weaker dollar boosts gold demand. In conclusion, gold prices are
influenced by a complex mix of economic policies, market trends, and geopolitical factors, making it a
key asset to monitor in global markets.
d. The price of gold has always been a key indicator of economic stability, serving as a safe-haven asset in
times of uncertainty. Recently, gold prices have risen sharply, driven by factors such as inflation, global
economic instability, and geopolitical tensions.
e. Additionally, demand from emerging markets, particularly in China and India, continues to support gold
prices due to its cultural and economic significance.
