    Mostrar resposta

    "23 May" is one word and a number. The other answers add extra words such as "the", "of" or "on", so they break the limit and lose the mark.

    Tutor: So, how is your survey on campus recycling going?
    Maya: Well, we planned to interview two hundred students, but in the end we only managed a hundred and twenty.

    Tutor: That's a fair point. And what did you find?
    Maya: Most students told us they want to recycle, but they don't know which bins to use.

    Lecturer: Today I want to explain why cities are often warmer than the countryside around them. This is called the urban heat island effect. The first cause is building materials: dark roads and roofs absorb heat during the day and release it slowly at night. The second cause is the lack of plants, because plants cool the air as water evaporates from their leaves. Interestingly, the difference in temperature is usually greatest at night, not in the middle of the day.
