The answer directly addresses the question and provides a clear, logical reason for the behavior described. The response is well-developed, moving beyond a simple 'yes' or 'no' to explain the rationale behind carrying cash. The vocabulary used, such as 'sensible' and 'on hand,' is natural and appropriate for a native-like response.

The answer is concise, direct, and flows naturally. You provided a clear reason for your action ('just in case' and 'for emergencies') without unnecessary hesitation or repetition. To maintain this in a real exam, ensure you maintain this level of logical progression even when the questions become more complex.
