Yes, a semiconductor can be made to behave as a conductor or an insulator by controlling the amount of impurities added to it. Adding impurities through a process called doping can change the conductivity of the semiconductor material, making it act like a conductor or an insulator.
Semiconductor material can be made to become a conductor by doping it with impurities that introduce extra charge carriers. This increases the material's conductivity. On the other hand, to turn semiconductor material into an insulator, it can be cooled to very low temperatures to reduce the thermal energy of the charge carriers, effectively halting conductivity.
Its a insulator
A matchstick is an insulator of electricity because it is made primarily of wood, which is a poor conductor of electricity.
A ruler is typically made of plastic, which is an insulator. This means it does not conduct electricity well.

Silver is the best conductor there is, no matter what it is made into.

If the toothpick is made of wood or plastic, it would act as an insulator.

If it's metal, it's a conductor or if it's plastic, it's an insulator. So, it depends on what it's made of.
Conductor
It depends what it is made of and what colour it is
a insulator
Yes, a fork is typically made of metal, which is a conductor of electricity. Therefore, it is not an insulator.
That depends on what the stone is made of but most stones are insulators.
