TEXT III
The English schools looking to dispel ‘doom and gloom' around Al
Charles Darwin chatting with students about evolution, primary school pupils seeing their writing transformed into images, Luton reimagined as a cool automobile - artificial intelligence is invading schools across England in surprising ways.
While Bridget Philipson, the education secretary, in January called for a “digital revolution” involving Al in schools, it has already begun in places such as Willowdown primary school in Bridgwater, Somerset.
Matt Cave, Willowdown's head teacher, said his pupils improve their descriptive writing by feeding their work into an Al client to generate images.
“All of a sudden they've got all these pictures from different people’s descriptions, and they can then discuss with their classmates whether that was the image they expected to be in the reader’s head,” Cave said.
“It was really stimulating and thought-provoking for them to have a different audience.” The results, according to Cave, have been "brilliant” and a contrast to the “doom and gloom” he had heard from worried school leaders.
“I wouldn't want anyone to think we weren't aware of the potential hazards - we emphasise that to the children continually. But it's going to be a tool that they are going to need to use all their lives,” Cave said.
Marina Wyatt, head of science for key stage 3 at Furze Platt senior school in Maidenhead, said that she has found teacher-led use of Al useful for engaging students in discussions, including with a virtual Charles Darwin.
In the prompt we tell it to respond as Charles Darwin, and stay in the role. And it works. It came up with some brilliant stuff.

I What is your objection ______ this place.
II There can be no excuse ______ such laziness.
III Paul is very jealous ______ his young brother.
IV Mrs. Brown is an authority ______ Italian art.
Check the correct option according to the preposition corresponding to each verb:

I. "work of literature up to 50 pages in length". II. "payment between 5,000 and 10,000 words". III. "even during open reading periods". IV. "for works over 10,000 words".
Regarding the statements, it is CORRECT to say that:
A leading agro-industrial firm based in Santa Cata rina—specializing in poultry and pork exports—is fac ing increasing pressure in global markets. Historically, the company has benefited from Brazil’s disease-free livestock status and strong compliance with World Organization for Animal Health standards, enabling access to premium markets in Asia and Europe.
However, recent developments have disrupted its competitive position:
- A major importing country has introduced stricter ESG and carbon-traceability requirements.
- Exchange rate volatility in Brazil has increased f inancial uncertainty.
- Logistics bottlenecks at Port of Itajaí have delayed shipments.
- Competitors from other countries are offering lower-cost alternatives.
Based on the scenario, which strategic response would be most appropriate for the firm at this stage?
(_) There are four prepositions missing in the final paragraph. The most appropriate sequence is: in; on; to; by.
(_) The sentence Hedging instruments are employed by firms to manage risks is correctly written in the Passive Voice.
(_) The word nearshoring, in the fifth paragraph, refers to moving production overseas.
(_) Mitigating transaction costs most nearly means reducing transaction costs.
(_) In the sixth paragraph, the expressions not only and but also, form a correlative conjunc tion pair used to connect two related ideas.
Select the alternative that presents the correct sequence, from top to bottom.
I.The compound noun "posthumanism" in the phrase "Philip Popov's continuing focus on the posthumanism and transhumanism" exhibits derivational morphology through the prefix "post-" (meaning after/beyond) attached to the base "humanism," creating a philosophical term denoting ideology beyond traditional humanism, and this word formation process exemplifies productive morphological patterns in academic and philosophical English vocabulary.
II.The prepositional phrase "from 2014" in "Combining works dating back to 2014" functions as a temporal adjunct modifying the present participle "dating," and the phrasal verb "dating back to" is a three-word intransitive phrasal verb meaning to originate or have existed since a particular time, commonly used in historical and chronological contexts.
III.The relative clause "where he was born" in "the city where he was born" is a restrictive (defining) relative clause that specifies which city is being referenced, using the relative adverb "where" to indicate location, and this construction could be alternatively expressed as "in which he was born" with preposition fronting, though "where" is more natural and commonly preferred in spoken and written English.
The following statement(s) is/are CORRECT.
Complete the sentences with the correct time prepositions.
I. The meeting will start ___ 3:45 PM.
II. She was born ___ August.
III. The exam will take place ___ Tuesday.
