| Example | Answer |
| The reason for dialing: | complain |
| Full name: | 1 |
| Address: | International House |
| Room number: | 2 |
| Register number: | 3 |
| Length of stay: | 4 |
- 1 Answer: Kevin Green
The keywords concerned in Q1 must be “full name”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be a name.
The agent asks Kevin to give her his full name. According to Kevin’s answer, we are aware that his full name is “Kevin Green”. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “Kevin Green”.
- 2 Answer: 16C
The keywords concerned in Q2 must be “room number”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be a number or a number with a letter.
The agent proceeds to ask Kevin about his room number. Then, Kevin answers that his room number is 16C. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “16C”.
- 3 Answer: KG 6037
The keywords concerned in Q3 must be “register number”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer can be numbers or numbers with letters.
The agent asks Kevin about his registration number. According to Kevin’s answer, we are aware that his registration number is KG6037. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “KG6037”.
Note: “Register number”, as stated in the question, and “registration number”, as stated in the conversation, are obviously the same.
- 4 Answer: two months/2 months
The keywords concerned in Q4 must be “length of stay”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be a period of time.
The agent asks Kevin about his length of stay, to which Kevin briefly answers as “two months”. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “two months”.
Note: The focus of this question is Kevin’s length of stay, which is clarified by the agent’s question. The length of lease has nothing to do with this question. Therefore, inattentive students may mistakenly believe that “one year” is the correct answer.
Questions 5-7
Complete the table below.
Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for each answer.
| ITEM | PROBLEMS |
| tap in bathroom | 5 |
| 6 | Broken |
| TV set | 7 |
- 5 Answer: leaking
The keywords concerned in Q5 must be “problem” and “tap in bathroom”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer can be a phrase.
The agent wants to know what are the problems that Kevin’s having. It turns out that Kevin is currently dealing with a lot of problems. The first one is the bathroom tap. According to Kevin, his bathroom tap is leaking, and “leaking” is the problem that we are looking for. Thus, the answer for this question must be “leaking”.
- 6 Answer: stove door
The keywords concerned in Q6 must be “item” and “broken”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be a noun or a noun phrase.
According to Kevin, we are aware that he’s having a problem with the stove in the kitchen. It turns out that the door of the stove is broken. As “broken” is our keyword, we can be assured that the item concerned here is the door of the stove, which can be briefly mentioned as stove door. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “stove door”.
- 7 Answer: no sound
The keywords concerned in Q7 must be “TV set” and “problem”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer can be a phrase.
The agent proceeds to ask about other problems that Kevin’s having. It turns out that his TV set has no sound, and “no sound” is the problem that we are looking for. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “no sound”.
Questions 8-10
Complete the sentences below.
Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for each answer.
Time of repairing is at 8
Telephone number of the repair man is 9
The repairing fee is 10
- 8 Answer: 5 p.m/5:00 p.m
The keywords concerned in Q8 must be “time of repairing”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be a particular time.
As Kevin will return to the flat at about 4 o’clock, the agent flexibly arranges the repairman to come to his flat at 5 o’clock. Kevin completely agrees to this arrangement. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “5 p.m.”, as the repairman will come to Kevin’s flat on the afternoon.
Note: Even though Kevin returns to his flat at about 4 o’clock, the time of repairing, as stated by the agent, is actually 5 o’clock. Therefore, “4 p.m.” is an incorrect answer.
- 9 Answer: 6543 3747
The keywords concerned in Q9 must be “repairman’s telephone number”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer must be numbers.
According to the agent, Kevin can contact the repairman if he wants to change the time of repairing. Consequently, his phone number is 6543 3747. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “6543 3747”.
- 10 Answer: free
The keywords concerned in Q10 must be “repair fee”.
From the question, we can assume that the answer can be an amount of money.
According to the agent, we are aware that the price is at least 5 pounds, in most cases. However, as Kevin just uses two months, he doesn’t have to pay the fee. Therefore, the answer for this question must be “free”.
Note: The question concerns the actual price that Kevin has to pay, not the common price. Therefore, the only correct answer is “free”.

Comments:
Many people no longer read newspapers or watch TV news programs. Instead, they get news about the world from the Internet. Is this a positive or negative development?
Answer.
The days we live in are enriched with technological advancements.
With these milestones, it is no wonder many people no longer resort to newspapers and TV news programs but reach for the online network to gather news updates. I believe this is a positive development.
There are several reasons responsible for this technological urge. One main factor is that cyberspace is easily and quickly accessible.
In the past, one would have to wait for the newspaper to be delivered to his doorstep or wait for the 9 pm TV news to get up to speed with the global happenings. Whereas, with the net, the latest news is within your reach with only a few clicks. For example, research conducted by the Wall Street Journal in June 2000, suggests that most people prefer to read news online about various topics rather than purchase several newspapers to get the same information.
Another reason for the attraction towards the web is that it is cheaper and environmentally friendly.
With the use of mobile phones to access cyberspace, the need to spend on newspapers and dump them after use would be a thing of the past.
For those who like to keep references to events in the past, a simple method of tagging the posts is readily available on the net. With this, one can easily research and not subject oneself to undue stress in searching for articles once read.
In conclusion, I concur that accessing world information is better accessed through hyperspace.
Task 2
The word internet became a buzzword all around the world at once from the beginning of the late 20th century with new advances in technology which we are enjoying now in different ways in our lifestyle. People across the world are utilizing the internet rather than reading the newspapers or watching television nowadays. In my opinion, the greater the advancement, the larger the consequences, which the internet also has. I totally agree with the statement.
Generation by generation, internet usage has increased, while reading newspapers has decreased drastically, and watching TV with family and friends is decreasing day by day, which raises concerns about social interaction and the loss of human touch. Reading is a great habit for humans to sharpen the brain for thinking logically, analytically, and mainly understanding with imagination, which improves creative thinking. In the case of a person using a mobile phone for reading content, which may contain a lot of distractions, that causes a lack of focus and spending time in unproductive activities.
On the other hand, the exposure to the news around the world is a great achievement of the internet. People across the world learn about their country and other country development in any aspect, which is a great source of knowledge for humans to understand what is happening around us. With my experience with the internet, it allows everyone to upload content. This content may be biased or the content may be incorrect, leading to confusion about who to trust.
It can be concluded that the internet is very helpful, with trusted websites or organizations, but it also has its consequences, like false news, hate speech, etc. So, users need to be alert while reading different articles.
Task 1:
The given layout depicts the transition of the ground floor in a building from the year 1958 to the current year.
From the layout, the floor was renovated three times according to the need of the apartment owners. The floor was used commercially twice in the given timeline. Firstly, from 1958 to 1984, the floor served as an office, which contained different office rooms as per the divisions within the working area, along with additional facilities such as a meeting room, toilet, kitchen, and reception. Secondly, from 2001 to the present, the area was used as a flower shop with an office room, a kitchen, a gift card room, and a play area, while the rest of the area was allocated for placing the flowers.
During the whole time, there were many changes in the layout, but the kitchen was not modified or replaced by any of the owners. Additionally, in the southeast corner, the toilet was expanded with added facilities in it until it became the secretary's office in 1985.
Currently, in the flower shop, the majority of the area is occupied by the flower plants, with less space dedicated to other rooms.

The figure shows information about how the floor of a building has been transformed over the years.
Overall, the graph shows three floor plans which correspond to three different periods, the first one to the period between 1958 and 1984, when the floor was used as an office, the second one to the period between 1985 and 2000 when the floor was used as an apartment, finally the third image corresponds to the floor plan of a flower store from 2001 to the present.
To begin with, you can see how in the first period of time, when the floor was used as an office, it had a meeting room at the back left, just in front was the kitchen, in the middle of the floor between the kitchen and the toilet were located the offices of the assistant and the secretary, just on the other side in the middle of the floor on the right side was the Manager's office, and on the left side after entering was the Toilet and on the other side was the reception area. Moreover, the second image shows the period between 1985 and 2000, when the apartment was used as an apartment, where there are great changes in the distribution of spaces, being in the upper left corner the Living room and on the other side the kitchen, in the middle area the bedroom 1 and just below the bedroom 2, in the lower left corner the Bathroom and Shower, Finally, in the third graph you can see the current use of the floor since 2001, Finally, in the third graph you can see the current use of the floor since 2001, when it already corresponds to a flower store, on the right side in the upper part remains the kitchen, under it in the middle is an office and in the lower part next to the entrance is an area with flowers, in front on the left side is a play area, in the middle left area is another area with flowers and in the upper left corner is the Gift Cards area.
To summarize, it can be clearly seen how the same floor has undergone several changes over time, where the kitchen has remained in the same place during the three periods and in the final period the bathroom was removed.

The map shows how the layout of a building changed over time as the purpose of the building changed since 1958. Overall the location for the entrance and kitchen has remained the same from 1958 to the present.
From 1958 to 1984 (26 years) the building was used as an office. During this era, the building had the most cabins/compartments/partitions to house the office staff. Moreover, the remaining space was utilized as a toilet, reception area, and kitchen.
For the next 15 years (1985-2000) the building's layout changed to serve the purpose of an apartment. For this purpose, two bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom/shower area were introduced. Furthermore, the free area remained almost the same as in the previous era even though there are fewer compartments now but they are bigger.
Since 2001 the building is being used as a flower shop. The location of the kitchen is the same as before but more free space is introduced to house the flowers. Apart from that there is an office, a play area, and a gift card shop.
Nowadays, many people are neither reading newspaper magazines nor watching news programmes on TV, they always tend to watch programs or read news articles from the internet. In my opinion, I consider it is as a positive development due to the fact that it gave public an option to watch programs whenever they feel to watch instead of watching them only in that particular time.
Firstly, thanks to this advanced technology which gave us an excellent opportunity to watch or read programs as our wish and as many times as we want. When compared with watching news on the television which is played only once, watching news using the internet, provides us the facility to watch news as many times we want, which is comparatively far better and also improves news clarity. Many people are now attracted towards reading news articles on the web rather than reading daily newspaper, whereas this technology also provides us the facility to search and explore news about a particular topic we wish to.
Secondly, reading or watching news magazines or TV programs respectively are not considered efficient ways to get information nowadays which lack some sort of clarity, and they even charge some amount of money for their services to be delivered. Getting information using internet is cheap nowadays when compared to traditional ways of getting data such as television and magazines. Although, some articles on the internet tend to circulate wrong info which is a disadvantage of news articles but these channels which pass false news about the issues in the world are monitored closely and may be banned in the future to publish news articles.
To sum up, there are large number of clear advantages of reading and watching news from the web instead of using TV's and newspapers to gain information. I consider internet as an asset which provides public this type of technology to watch daily news and do numerous activities.
The plan given illustrates the changes made in the ground level of a particular building over time.
Overall, the ground floor was changed three times in the time periods 1958-84,1985-2000, and 2001-present for an office, flat, and a flower shop respectively.
Firstly, from 1958-84, ground floor was allocated to an office where the plan included some areas such as toilet, reception, office rooms, and the kitchen. Secondly, from 1985-2000, ground floor was given for a flat when some changes were made such as removing all the office rooms from the plan, except toilet and kitchen. In fact, bathroom was extended till the secretary's office, living room covered total space of meeting room and assistant's office, whereas the manager office and the reception area was combined and divided into two bedrooms.
Finally, from 2001-present date, the ground floor was given to a flower shop. Here also some changes were made which include converting two bedrooms into office and flowers area, decreasing the size of the living room to make a place for gift cards, and removing the bathroom and allocating that place to play area.
The maps illustrate how the base floor of a building varied from 1958 to the present time.
Overall, his use changed three times during the period, it passed from being an office to being an apartment for a certain period, and finally, it became a flower shop. Despite most of the rooms changed during these variations, the kitchen didn’t.
The ground floor components can be organized according to their position related to the entrance. On the right side, the kitchen was a permanent room during the whole period, from 1958 to the present time. Instead, the other rooms were subjected to variations. If in the first 15 years there were the manager’s office and the reception area, they were later replaced by two bedrooms between 1985 and 2000, and later by an office and a flower section, since from 2001 the ground floor became a flower shop.
The left side instead, changed completely over the years. During the first period, it was organized in office rooms, and in 1985 those areas were adjusted to have a living room and a big bathroom since it became an apartment. Finally, in 2001 these two rooms were replaced by a gift card area, one devoted to play and another section for flowers
