October is getting closer and it also means that the year of 2014 is coming to an end. "Hooray! It's a holiday!" While you are thinking of putting textbooks aside and playing video games, let's take a look at what children in other continents usually do during their holidays.
Children in America don't have much homework to do. They keep themselves busy by playing camp games. A parent says, "My daughter Shirley usually attends different camps. We don't ask her to spend plenty of time on maths problems or spelling tests."
Children in Australia take partin activities on over twenty different themes  . They learn painting, dancing, singing, history, culture and so on. Parents can _ their kids to enjoy the learning process and to build a closer relationship with them.
These are what African kids do: build a boat, have a camel race, make a drum and make a rag   football. Don't you think it is interesting that kids in other places have no idea how to make a drum, but kids in Africa do?
Plan your holiday well and try what you want to try. Make a good plan and you will have a lot of fun.

<question>:
What is the purpose of this passage?

<options>:
A To advise kids to make holiday plans.
B To introduce some good holiday camps.
C To encourage kids to make friends with parents.

One day a farmer went out for a walk with his daughter. The farmer put on a pair of wrong shoes-one with a thick sole  and the other with a thin one. So as he began to walk, he felt very uncomfortable. When he was just out of the house, he turned to his daughter and said, "Why should one of my legs be longer than the other today?"
The daughter looked at his father's legs carefully as he was walking, and then laughed, "Oh, no, Daddy, your legs are all right. You have put on the wrong shoes."

What does it feel like to break a bone  ? It's different for everyone, but the pain is often sharp  . If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse.
To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information he or she needs to set   the bone: to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins   to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special, hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two.
Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many new cells   and tiny blood vessels  . These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before.

<question>:
Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A How to Know if a Bone is Broken

Tiger Mom,
You've been criticized  a lot since your book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, came out. One problem is that some people don't get your humor. They think you're serious about all things and Lulu and I are suffering a lot from such a strict mother. That is not true.
But for real, it's not their fault. No outsider can know what our family is really like. They don't hear us laughing over each other's jokes. They don't see us eating our hamburgers with fried rice. They don't know how much fun we have when the six of us dogs included squeeze into one bed and argue about what movies to download from Netflix.
I admit it: Having you as a mother was no tea party. There were some play dates I wish I'd gone to and some piano camps I wish I'd got away from. But now that I'm 18 and about to leave the tiger den , I'm glad you and Daddy raised me the way you did.
A lot of people have accused you of producing robot kids who can't think for themselves. Well, I came to the opposite conclusion: your strict parenting made me more independent .
Everybody's talking about the birthday cards we once made for you, which you refused to take because they weren't good enough. Funny how some people believe that Lulu and I will feel hurt for life. But let's face it: It took me 30 second; I didn't put my heart into it. That's why, when you rejected it, I didn't feel hurt at all.
There's one more thing: I have come to understand what it really means to live a meaningful life to the fullest. To me, it's about knowing that you've tried your best, body and mind. You feel _ when the piano piece you've practiced for days and hours finally comes to life beneath your fingertips. You feel _ when you do something on your own that you never thought you could. And for that, Tiger Mom, thank you.
Yours,
Sophia

You may have noticed that the world's population is not evenly distributed   around our planet. There are more countries where people seem to be living nearly _ each other because conditions are overcrowded . Then there are others where it seems that hardly anybody lives. What influences this unequal distribution of people ? There are specific advantages and disadvantages of living in a certain area.
The two main factors   that influence people's choice of location are climate and resources. Climate is the usual weather conditions in a region. Areas that have bad weather are generally less ideal as places to live in . The north and south poles at the top and bottom of the world may be beautiful in their rugged, natural way , but the disadvantage of the bitterly cold and windy conditions usually keeps people away. When it comes to climates, warm conditions and a normal amount of rainfall are advantages that attract people.
Natural resources are tings that we get from nature that help us survive. Each region offers different resources, and therefore attracts different groups of people. People who enjoy the beach can make their living by catching and selling the ocean's many fish and other sea creature. Those who prefer farming can take advantage of rich soil in valleys near rivers. Some people are willing to accept the disadvantages of the terrible conditions of deserts or mountains in order to take advantages of the resources like oil or woods.

Have you ever heard someone use the phrase "once in a blue moon"? People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat chocolate "once in a blue moon". Or someone who does not usually like to go to the beach might say "I visit the shore once in a moon." While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it.
The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue. This is just an expression. In fact, the phrase "blue moon" has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color.
As the moon travels around the earth, it appears to change shape. We associate names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon, it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip of a fingernail. When we cannot see the moon at all, it is called a new moon. When we can see the whole moon, it is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however, there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a "blue moon".
Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare event. _ has led people to use the expression "once in a blue moon" to other very rare events in their lives.

<question>:
Which of the following would be a good example of using the phrase "once in a blue moon"?

<options>:
A Simon often tells jokes. Simon tells jokes once in a blue moon.
B Tom rarely remembers to do exercise. Tom does exercise once in a blue moon.
C Mary likes to go shopping every weekend. Mary goes shopping once in a blue moon.
D Cindy hates to stay up, but she stays up every day. Cindy stays up once in a blue moon.
