Text A
Mechanical performances?
Robots is as visually engaging as the best digitally animated films. The landscapes are
really stunning, there's plenty of high-octane action, and actor-comedian Robin
Williams provides plenty of laughs. Despite these positive qualities, it more often
resembles a video game than a movie. It doesn't take long to uncover the culprit for
Robots' lack of inspiration. The dreary plot is targeted squarely at five-year- olds. 5
Unfortunately, when it comes to vocal performances, Robin Williams is the only actor
worth mentioning. His co-stars read their lines, but don't do anything more than that.
Williams brings life and energy to his role as Fender. Most of his dialogue sounds
improvised – we're never quite sure what Williams' animated alter ego is going to
say or do next. 10
The narrative is familiar fairy-tale stuff: a young robot sets off to pursue his dreams
and ends up doing great deeds. The robot, who is named Rodney Copperbottom,
leaves the sleepy suburb of Rivet Town for the metropolis of Robot City. In Robot City,
he wants to seek out his hero, Bigweld. But, when he arrives, Rodney learns that
Bigweld has ominously disappeared. With the help of his new friend, Fender, 15
Rodney aims to find Bigweld and rescue the city from the clutches of an evil robot
called Ratchet.
If the plot doesn't grab you, the look of the film will. The directors have created a robot
world to stir the imagination: each of the robots is unique, gaudy colours run riot, crazy
contraptions abound. The wow factor is greater in Robots than in many other 20
digitally animated films. However, that only partly compensates for the emptiness of
the story, and the lifelessness of all of the characters apart from Fender.
If you have kids, there's little chance that you'll escape seeing this movie. But when
you do go, you'll probably enjoy yourself. Robots is not one of those must-see
animated digital movies that works as well for adults as for children. Robots is more
than a load of spare parts, but there are some nuts and bolts missing.

Text B
Players of the ancient Chinese board game, Go, have been stunned by the success of
a program called AlphaGo. The computer program has defeated a human champion,
marking a significant advance for the development of artificial intelligence (AI).
AlphaGo beat legendary player Lee Se-dol in Seoul, South Korea, with a 4–1 victory.
This is the first time a Go program has won so decisively against such a highly ranked 5
player. The program is partly self-taught, having played millions of games against
itself. Not even the developers can explain how AlphaGo analyses the game position
and picks its next move.
Computers have previously surpassed humans in other games. Those include chess,
checkers and backgammon. But AlphaGo’s success is considered the most 10
significant yet, due to the complexity of Go. The game requires creative and
strategic thinking. According to researchers, there are more possible positions in Go
than atoms in the universe.
Go originated in China more than 2 500 years ago. Two players take turns by putting
black or white stones on a 19-by-19 grid. Players win when they take control of the 15
most territory on the board.
Martin Mueller, a computing science professor who has worked on Go programs for
30 years, said the new program ‘is really a big step up from everything else we've 20
seen. It's a very, very impressive piece of work.’
AlphaGo’s developers say its learning strategy may someday let computers help
solve real-world problems. Those could include making medical diagnoses and
pursuing scientific research.

Text for Section A, an extract from The Legendeer: Shadow of the Minotaur by Alan
Gibbons
Chapter 1
But still the beast stood in the archway, pawing at the floor. It was bigger than a man.
It stood almost three metres tall and was massively built with slabs of muscle on its
chest and shoulders. Below the waist it was bull-like. It had a swinging tail and mud-
splattered hooves. Or was it mud? Above the waist it was a man except, that is, for
the head. And what a head! The muzzle was huge and when it opened it revealed 5
the sharp, curved teeth, not of a bull but of a big cat. They were the fangs of a lion or
tiger, made for ripping flesh. Its eyes were yellow and blazed unflinchingly through the
murk. Then there were the great horns, glinting and sharp, curving from its monstrous
brow. Thick and muscular as the neck was, it seemed barely able to support such a
fearsome head, and strained visibly under the impossible weight. 10
‘Oh my – ’
The beast stepped out from the tunnel, and the boy actually took a few steps back.
It was as if his soul had crept out of his body and was tugging at him, begging him to get
away. In the sparse light shed from the gratings in the ceiling, the beast looked even
more hideous. There was the sweat for a start, standing out in gleaming beads on 15
that enormous neck and shoulders.
The beast began to stamp forward, its hooves clashing on the stone floor. It raised its
head, the horns scraping on the ceiling, and gave a bellow that seemed to crush the
air.
‘I can’t do this …’ 20
He fell back, scrambling over obstacles on the floor, and fled. That’s when he
realized he’d dropped the ball of string. His lifeline had gone.
‘Oh no!’
In his mind’s eye, he could see himself impaled on the points of those evil-looking
horns, his legs pedalling feebly in the air, his head snapped back, his eyes growing
pale and lifeless.
Suddenly, he was skidding on the slimy floor while running for his life
‘Help me!’ 30
He saw the startled brown eyes of the girl above the grating. ‘Don’t run!’ she
2
He was almost dying of shame. This wasn’t supposed to happen. He wasn't meant to
lose and there weren’t meant to be witnesses to his defeat.
The way of things. That’s right, he was meant to stand and fight. It was in his nature
as a hero. But he couldn’t. Not against that.
‘Please,’ he begged, turning his face away from the girl in shame, ‘somebody help
me.’
The beast was careering through the tunnels, crashing, bellowing, thundering through 40
the maze. Its charge was hot, furious, unstoppable. It was almost on him.
‘That’s it,’ he cried, throwing down his sword, ‘I’ve had enough. Game over!’
Chapter 2
Ripping off the mask and gloves, Phoenix bent double gulping down air like it
had been rationed. The dank half-light of the tunnels was replaced by the welcome 45
glow from an Anglepoise lamp in his father’s study. He glanced at the score bracelet
on his wrist. It registered total defeat: 000000. For a few moments everything was
spinning, the claws of the game digging into the flesh of the here and now. Then his
surroundings became reassuringly familiar.
He was out. 50
It was a game!
‘Mind-blowing,’ Phoenix panted. ‘It was so real. It was like another world. I mean,
I was Theseus. I went into the palace of the tyrant-king Minos. I could actually
touch the stone columns, feel the heat of the braziers, smell the incense.’ 55
He knew he was gushing, babbling like a little kid, but he didn’t care.
‘The king’s daughter Ariadne helped me and she wasn’t just an image on a screen.
She was a real girl. Then I actually came face to face with the Minotaur. It was really
happening. I believed it.’ He shivered. ‘Still do.’
‘Oh, I could tell how convincing it was’, said Dad, enjoying the mixture of excitement 60
and fear in his son’s voice.
Phoenix blushed then, beginning to control his breathing at last, he picked up the
3
65
mask and gloves and traced the attached wires back to the computer where images
of the labyrinth were still flashing away on the screen.
‘That’s all. Just a very sophisticated piece of software, hooked up to an even more

Migrants contribute with their knowledge, networks and skills to build stronger,
more resilient communities. The global social and economic landscape can be
shaped through impactful decisions to address the challenges and opportunities
presented by global mobility and people on the move. The Global Compact for
Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GMC) offers the opportunity and guidance to
actualise human mobility and seize the opportunity it presents. The International
Organisation for Migration (IOM) has assisted millions of migrants that were
displaced during the Second World War and continues the way in promoting a
humane and orderly management of migration for the benefit of all, including the
communities of origin, transit and destination. Today, more people than ever live in
a country other than the one in which they were born. While many individuals
migrate out of choice, many others migrate out of necessity. In 2019, the number
of migrants globally reached an estimated 272 million, 51 million more in 2010.
International days and weeks are occasions to educate the public on issues of
concern, to mobilize political will and resources to address global problems, and to
celebrate and reinforce achievements of humanity. The existence of international
days predates the establishment of the United Nations, but the UN has embraced
them as a powerful advocacy tool.
a) What is the contribution of the migrants when it comes to building strong
and more resilient communities? [1]
i) Knowledge, network and skills
ii) knowledge, food supplies and ability
iii) network, skills and resources
iv) knowledge, network and food supplies
