This sentence demonstrates a grammatically
correct use of the comparative form of the adjective
“difficult,” as well as the proper comparative
structure involving “than,” being appropriate when
contrasting two items. The inclusion of the definite
article "the" before "last one" does not alter the

Text: (Excerpt about sugar consumption and
health implications)
Sugar has never been considered a health food,
but lately, the science against it keeps growing
stronger. New evidence shows going overboard on
the sweet stuff can lead to high cholesterol and blood
pressure […] not to mention excess weight gain.
Problem is most people are eating more sugar
now than they ever have. The average person
consumes about 20 teaspoons of added sugar a day —
300 calories worth! — which is four times more than
the amount recommended by most health experts,
including the American Heart Association. Annually,
all those teaspoons add up to 170 pounds of sugar.
So why are we so addicted to sugar? First off, it
is literally addicting. When you eat something sweet,
you get a surge of dopamine, the chemical in your
brain that brings you pleasure. Added sugar is also
tough to dodge. Sweetener hides in foods that don’t even taste sugary, like breads, sauces and condiments.
What’s more, it’s so hard to decipher the difference
between added sugars and the kinds found naturally
in whole foods. Eating naturally occurring sugars —
like fructose in fruit and lactose in dairy — is
generally considered healthy because they contain
nutrients with metabolic benefits, such as fiber and
antioxidants. Added sugars (sweeteners put into food
for flavor) have no such perks. […]

Although some readers may consider “addicting”
nonstandard, the adjective form used in “literally
addicting” is acceptable in contemporary American
English and does not constitute a grammatical error.

Plan to test Liberian schoolchildren for drugs blocked
October 17th, 2025
By Moses Kollie Garzeawu
Monrovia, Liberia, Africa
Liberia's Education Ministry has blocked controversial plans to introduce mandatory drug testing in all of the country's schools.
Speaking to local media, the interim head of the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA), Fitzgerald Biago, said school testing would help address the growing problem of drug abuse.
The announcement sparked a mixed response. Some thought it would help tackle the scourge of drugs, while others saw it as an invasion of privacy, or feared it would cost too much.
Last year, President Joseph Boakai declared drug and substance abuse a national emergency and a recent EU-backed report estimated that one in five young Liberians take drugs.
However, the Education Ministry said it was not aware of any plans to test students and added that such a decision needed to be based on concrete evidence and properly thought through.
Assistant minister in charge of students Sona Toure-Sesay told the BBC that this kind of plan required proper research. "Let's assume we are made aware of the proposed initiatives by the LDEA, it will require us to conduct research and review case studies from other countries where this has been successful," she said.
Toure-Sesay also noted that testing could affect students. "What happens to students who test positive? What are the social services in place for them? Some of them might be bullied even after returning, and it may affect their overall educational performances."
She added that a multi-sectoral committee on drug and substance abuse had been set up, headed by the Health Ministry. Along with strengthening health clubs in schools, she said that this would help to reduce the prevalence of drugs among students.
President Boakai dismissed the leadership of the LDEA in August this year, and recently appointed Biago, a former senior police officer, as interim head of the agency.

Read the text below and answer the next question:
Gaia Pope: Family appeals for art in memory of teenager
The family of teenager Gaia Pope are appealing for people
to create and donate artwork to honour her memory a
year after her death.
The 19-year-old was reported missing from Swanage on 7
November. Her body was found 11 days later near the
Dorset coast path.
Her family said as the anniversary of her disappearance
approached they were "asking people to make something
to show she is not forgotten".
The artwork will be displayed online.
Miss Pope, from Langton Matravers, near Swanage, made
an allegation she was raped two years before her death.
Her family claimed an alleged failed police investigation
"severely affected Gaia's mental and physical state".
Art, particularly pyrography (woodburning), became a
form of therapy for the teenager, her family said.
Her mother Natasha Pope said: "I don't speak about my
daughter in the past tense - I utter her name as I always
have because I know she is still with me, every moment, in
all we're doing.
"Gaia's art and poetry, inspired by the beauty of nature
and the strength of femininity, is her way of connecting
with her true self. In spite of all she's been through she is
not defined by that.
"Our Gaia would want to provide a forum for others to find
their voice and create."
Miss Pope's cousin Marienna Pope-Weidemann added:
"Some things are so big, run so deep, they can only be
expressed through art. Our love and our grief for Gaia feels
that way.
"The love we've felt from the community felt that way too.
We want to honour that, make it visible, maybe do
something to show other survivors, families who's lost
someone too soon, that they are not alone."
The family said the project was inspired by the
#JusticeForLB social media campaign and want people to
share their art on Twitter via #JusticeForGaia.
The #JusticeForLB campaign was set up by Dr Sara Ryan -
the mother of 18-year-old Connor Sparrowhawk, who had
epilepsy and drowned in a bath after having a seizure in
Oxford.
Dorset Police is being investigated over the way it handled
the rape allegation and its response to Miss Pope's
disappearance.

#JusticeForGaia campaign became more influential than
many other local initiatives.” What is the grammatical

Humanoid Robots in Hotels Stir Curiosity and
Concern as Global Use Expands
Hotels around the world are increasingly embracing
humanoid robots at check-in desks, lobby information
points, and even for room service, but the trend is raising
eyebrows among guests, researchers and hoteliers alike.
Last week, a viral TikTok video fromTokyo's Henn-na
Hotel showed a startled guest stepping back from a
humanoid check-in robot. As the machine offered
instructions, she stammered, "Don't look at me," a
moment that highlights discomfort with robots that
mimic—but fail to fully replicate—human behavior. The
reaction reflects the classic "uncanny valley"
phenomenon, where lifelike machines produce a sense
of unease, rather than delight.
Indeed, Henn-na itself has scaled back on its robot
deployment: it retired more than half of its original roster
of 240 androids by 2019, citing technical glitches and
guest complaints. Still, not all experiences are negative.
A 2023 survey from Boutique Hotelier found 61% of
travelers had favorable reactions to service robots, even
if nearly 29% admitted to feeling afraid to approach one.
Investment in hospitality robotics continues to escalate.
The global market, valued at approximately $567 million
in 2023, is projected to reach $2.2 billion by 2030, with a
CAGR near 21.5%. While humanoid receptionists earn
the spotlight, many hotels are quietly deploying delivery,
luggage-handling, cleaning, and disinfection robots to
streamline operations without overshadowing guests.
Major chains have taken note. Marriott and Hilton use
Relay and Savioke robots to deliver amenities to guest
rooms. Aloft and IHG properties in Asia deploy concierge
bots like Connie, powered by IBM Watson. Meanwhile,
Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas introduced a version of
"Pepper" in 2017 as a lobby greeter, but today it fulfills
more of an entertainment role than a functional one.
These varied experiments point to a shifting hospitality
mindset. Robots are increasingly seen not as novelties,
but as efficiency tools. In many properties, housekeeping
tasks are now scheduled via AI-driven work order
platforms, predictive maintenance prevents broken door
locks before guests arrive, and dynamic pricing engines
optimize revenue. Humanoid robots often serve as
marketing headlines, while automation remains the real
operational focus.
Henn-na's evolution encapsulates this balance. Opened
in 2015 in Nagasaki and later franchising globally, the
hotel scaled back after staffing and function issues
became clear. Today, human staff handle most tasks,
with robots reserved for novelty greetings and sample
deliveries in select areas. The hybrid model highlights
that technology is best embraced when it supports—not
replaces—hospitality staff.
Engineers are working to soften the uncanny valley.
SoftBank Robotics' latest machines, for instance, sport
smoother motions, improved speech recognition, and
context-aware gestures. Bt. Robotics, another emerging
player, is working to enhance robots' ability to recognize
individual guests and understand local cultural cues—a
step toward more personalized service.
However, UC Berkeley roboticist Ken Goldberg's old
adage still rings true: people are most comfortable when
robots look and behave like robots. In hospitality, that
means using bots to lift luggage, sanitize rooms, or whisk
away towels, while leaving emotional intelligence to
human staff. Technology can take on repetitive or
hazardous tasks, but empathy and problem-solving
remain firmly in the human domain.
That said, humanoid robots aren't disappearing. High-end
resorts and tech-forward properties continue
experimenting with sophisticated bots as part of their
experience narrative. In South Korea, luxury hotels
feature robot butlers that can draw a bath or set room
ambiance. In China, hotel robots perform room service
duties while broadcasting real-time translation for foreign
guests.
The challenge for the industry lies in aligning form with
function. A futuristic check-in robot may attract press, but
if it breaks down mid-shift or stares blankly at guests, the
novelty becomes irritation. Meanwhile, back-of-house
bots that reliably deliver water bottles—or prevent
maintenance issues—create consistent value that can
actually enhance service quality.
Looking ahead, hoteliers who thoughtfully combine
robotics and human labor with precision and purpose will
lead the field. They will use robots not to replace staff,
but to elevate them—by making service smoother,
freeing human employees to engage deeper with guests,
and resetting expectations of what hospitality can be in
the contactless age.

recognition, and context-aware gestures," which analysis
