35 The correct answer is B: 
In the tenth paragraph, Hamish Low refers to the effect of 
automation in the future and says, ‘The number of jobs will increase’.
36 The correct answer is A: 
In the third paragraph, Stella Pachidi says, ‘Organisations are 
attracted to using algorithms because they want to make choices based on what they consider 
is “perfect information”, as well as to reduce costs and enhance productivity.’ The phrase 
‘Organisations are attracted to using algorithms’ has the same meaning as AI is appealing to 
businesses. Pachidi then goes on to give three reasons for this.
37 The correct answer is C: 
In the final paragraph, Ewan McGaughey says, ‘Just as the 
industrial revolution brought people past subsistence agriculture, and the corporate revolution 
enabled mass production, a third revolution has been pronounced.’ The industrial revolution and 
the corporate revolution are two major cultural shifts that occurred in previous centuries, and 
McGaughey highlights the parallels between the impact of these events and that of the current 
AI-driven changes by using the phrase ‘Just as’.
38 The correct answer is A: 
In the fourth paragraph, Stella Pachidi says, ‘But these 
enhancements are not without consequences’. The word ‘enhancements’ refers back to the 
advantages of algorithms mentioned in the previous paragraph. Pachidi then goes on to mention 
several negative consequences of AI in the workplace.

39 The correct answer is B: 
In the ninth paragraph, Hamish Low says, ‘The traditional 
trajectory of full-time education followed by full-time work followed by a pensioned retirement is 
a thing of the past.’ A ‘traditional trajectory’ has a similar meaning to a conventional path, and 
the phrase ‘a thing of the past’ means that this no longer exists. Low is therefore saying that 
career paths are now different from the conventional ones that people used to follow.
