correct answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.
International Women’s Day, celebrated on March 8th, is a time to honor women’s progress and advocate
for real change towards gender equality. This day, rooted in a 1908 demonstration where 15,000 women in
New York City stood united for equal rights, better pay, shorter hours, and voting rights, has grown into a
worldwide movement. Clara Zetkin, at a meeting in 1910, suggested a special day each year to focus on
women’s rights, leading to the first International Women’s Day in 1911.
Despite some beliefs that women have equal chances as men, the reality often tells a different story.
Girls worldwide face more household duties than boys and are more likely to miss out on school. In many
countries, equal education for both genders is not guaranteed, and many girls are married off young, which
can force them to end school early, lead to early pregnancy together with other health issues, and increase the
chance of domestic violence.
On International Women’s Day, people participate in activities that raise awareness and call for gender
equality. Wearing purple, a color of women’s rights history, is common. It is also a day when women are
celebrated with gifts and social recognition in some places.
The journey towards full gender equality continues to face challenges. Yet, women’s groups across the
globe remain strong and active, with younger women and teenagers adding their voices and energy to the
cause. They are organizing, speaking out, and urging a shift in how we view and act towards each other
regarding gender roles.

correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
Since the birth of the car in 1886, transport in big cities has changed a lot. And it is no wonder that many
experts think that there will be extraordinary changes in the next few decades.
As technology develops, highways, skylines, subways will be all transformed. Smarter roadways and
highways in cities outfitted with IoT sensors will process all kinds of data in real time and alert users of the
best transport options. Weather, crashes, traffic conditions will be communicated to users and smart stops will
be found everywhere providing renewable energy, green hydrogen or even greener energy, ensuring
efficiency and safety on every highway. Tunnels will also be a smart choice because of the reduction of traffic
congestion. Underground roads will be built in 3D with a lift system which will take vehicles deep
underground and will allow traffic to attain the greatest speed without intersections.
There will also be innovations in the sky. Air taxis are not a new idea, but in the future they will be
completely environment-friendly. Aviation gasoline will be no longer used. Green energy will be in place and
cost-effective air taxis will enable people to travel from one busy urban city to another in record time.
New technologies such as Al and the rollout of 5G will pave the way for fully autonomous innovation.
Cars will not be the only thing to go autonomous. Freight trucks, cargo vehicles, air taxis will all benefit from
this technology and that is why the term ‘driver’ will become extinct.
Transport will go green. Electric or hydrogen power will be mainstream. There will still be issues to solve
such as safety, speed and cost, and of course governments will need to make new traffic laws.
