10、ead the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1 Youve got your fancy new suitcase and youre ready to take it with you on your travels across the globe.You get to the airport, quickly moving through

This is because going faster gives the wheels less time to rise and fall, preventing the case from swaying. They also said that reducing the angle of the suitcase by lowering its handle to the ground would help keep it steady.“These fi
