  3. Hi, my name is Andrea Ballin e.- If it is important to read the terms and conditions, they represent the document that helps to prevent and resolve problems. Therefore, they are essential in many cases to defend themselves in case of abuse. The Terms of Service set out how your product, service, or content can be used in a legally binding manner.

  4. d) Why did Nadia appearance changed from young to old?
    She changed from young to old because her watch was broken and not working properly. So when it did work, she looked older as the price for wearing the watch was time of her life and when the watch didn't work, she looked younger.

  7. Hi, my name is Carmen Avilés. I think about letter b, it happens because her watch is broken, so her dial doesn't work very well and she travel through the time, in consequence in one moment, she looks younger and other moment, she looks like a old woman.

  8. Hi, I'm Josué!
    c) In one of the chapters, I understood that the two men in suits were people that if you didn't respect the terms and conditions of the contract, you would owe them your life. So, they turn into some alien sharks with huge teeth. That leads to possibly those watches being alien technology.

  9. Hi, I'm Julissa and I'll be answering question B. I believe he lent so much time that it got out of hand. Then, he acquired an exorbitant doubt that was equivalent to the time he had left to live, so he died to pay his doubt.

  13. Hello,my name is Natalia Elena!
    About the question in letter b, I think that the man who suddenly die, is because he spend all the time that he have, so that means the Mr. Blenkinsop and Me. Symington give him a watch.
