Lexical semantics studies word meaning. Regarding synonyms and antonyms in English, mark T for true statements and F for false ones:



(__) Synonyms are words that have identical meanings in all contexts and can be freely substituted without any change in meaning or nuance (e.g., "big" and "large").


(__) Antonyms are words that express opposite meanings (e.g., "hot" and "cold," "happy" and "sad").


(__) Many words considered synonyms actually have subtle differences in meaning, connotation, or register (formal/informal), which makes lexical choice important for communicative precision.


(__) The word "fast" can be considered both a synonym of "quick" and an antonym of "slow."

Text CG4A1-II 


    In the United Kingdom (UK), cyberattacks continue to have serious consequences for government organisations, public services and people’s lives, undermining the value for money of government expenditure in affected services and systems. 

    The cyber threat to the government is severe and advancing quickly. In response, the Cabinet Office has published and started leading work to implement the first cyber strategy for government. 

    However, progress is slow and cyber incidents with a significant impact on government and public services are likely to happen regularly, not least because of the growing cyber threat. The government’s cyber resilience levels are lower than it previously estimated. The resilience of the hundreds of ageing legacy IT systems that departments still use is likely to be worse. 

    To avoid serious incidents, build resilience and protect the value for money of its operations, government must catch up with the acute cyber threat it faces. The government will continue to find it difficult to do so until it successfully addresses the longstanding shortage of cyber skills, strengthens accountability for cyber risk, and better manages the risks posed by legacy IT.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots have emerged as a growing resource in educational settings. This expansion has occurred amid varying acceptance and trust in digital learning technologies across student populations, with most reporting that their instructors or schools had not yet provided guidelines for ethical or responsible AI tool use.  

    Benefits of AI chatbots in educational settings extend to both students and educators. These systems can support learning by providing detailed explanations of concepts through intelligent tutoring support. Beyond explanations, they can offer immediate feedback on students’ work, allowing for more rapid improvement and iterative learning. These systems have demonstrated their potential to support personalized learning, adapting to individual student needs. Personalization naturally fosters higher levels of student engagement, found to be another benefit of these systems. Studies have also highlighted AI’s potential to stimulate creativity through idea generation, bridge language barriers via content translation for multilingual learners, and democratize education by providing continuous access to educational support and resources regardless of time or geographical constraints. 

    Besides their promise, implementing AI chatbots in educational settings requires careful consideration of several risks. For students, academic integrity has been raised as a primary concern, with studies highlighting the risks of intentional and unintentional plagiarism. These tools may inadvertently undermine students’ critical thinking development and academic agency, potentially fostering an unhealthy overreliance on automated assistance. The quality of interaction itself presents additional challenges, as the reduction of peer-to-peer and student-instructor interactions threatens to eliminate meaningful learning relationships.

Based on the information provided in text CG4A1-I and on its linguistic aspects, judge the following items.

I It is correct to conclude from the first paragraph of the text that some students are open to embracing AI chatbots as an acceptable learning technology, whereas others are more skeptical.
II The text implies, in its last paragraph, that implementing AI chatbots in educational settings may jeopardize the significant communication that occurs among students.
III In the second sentence of the second paragraph, the verb “support” is a synonymous with assist, and the two can be used interchangeably without altering the overall meaning of the sentence.
