Answer

· Based on the official syllabus and past papers
Updated
HeadingTRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN - Daylight Saving Time
Body

a. **FALSE** – The text explicitly states that people often say *Daylight Saving Time* instead of *summer time*, not the other way around. The phrasing is reversed in the statement.

b. **TRUE** – The passage confirms that Benjamin Franklin wrote the essay *‘An Economical Project’* in 1784, proposing the idea of daylight saving.

c. **NOT GIVEN** – The text mentions Sir Robert Pearce’s role in introducing the bill in 1909 but does not explicitly state that he *passed* it. The wording is ambiguous.

d. **FALSE** – The U.S. Congress passed the Standard Time Act in **1918**, not 1919. The statement misrepresents the year by one.

e. **TRUE** – The text clearly states that President Johnson signed the Uniform Time Act of 1966, making the statement accurate.
