Suggested MUET Reading 800/3 July Answers

Ok MUET July paper is over.. and so many have written in for the reading answers. I was away this weekend but am now at the office, staring at the questions. Do remember that these are my personal answers, as MPM will not be releasing the actual answers for some time.
