Dear Jake, 

Thanks for your letter and sorry I didn’t reply sooner.

I went to see a great film at the cinema last weekend - Iron Man 3. 

I went with my friend Paddy because he loves the Iron Man films. It isn't a new film but it was definitely worth seeing again. The special effects are amazing and it also has a clever plot with lots of twists. There are some funny lines in the script too.

After the film, we met some other friends at a noodle bar in town. It was fun, but I didn't really like the food. It was very spicy! 

Do you fancy going to the cinema next week? They're having a season of action films. including all the Batman series. Let me know and I'll book the tickets!

Anyway. I'd better go now. Ring me and let me know about the cinema. 

Love, 

Andy

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question.

It is 2025. Your mobile is now much more than just a Communication device – more like a remote control for your life. You still call it a "mobile" from habit, but it is an organiser, entertainment device, payment device and security centre, all developed and manufactured by engineers.

On a typical day it will start work even before you wake. Because it knows your travel schedule it can check for problems on the roads or with the trains and adjust the time it wakes you up accordingly, giving you the best route into work. It can control your home, re-programming the central heating if you need to get up earlier and providing remote alerts if the home security system is triggered. It is your payment system - just by placing the phone near a sensor on a barrier, like the Oyster card readers in use on London transport, you can pay for tickets for journeys or buy items in shops. With its understanding of location, the mobile can also provide directions, or even alert the user to friends or family in the Vicinity.

        It is your entertainment centre when away from home. As well as holding all your music files, as some phones today are able to do, it will work with your home entertainment system while you sleep to find programmes that will interest you and download them as a podcast to watch on the train or in other spare moments. It will intelligently work out what to do with incoming phone calls and messages.

The word "its" in paragraph 2 refers to ___________?

A. the transport    

B. the mobile        

C. the sensor         

D. the train
