You are given a background paragraph that describes one or more causal or qualitative relationships such as a relationship in economics or a scientific law and a story that makes use of the concepts or the relationship described in the provided paragraph. You are also given a question about the story that requires an understanding of the relationship described in the background paragraph and the story. You need to come up with an answer to the given question; the answer will be a span from either the question or the story. In order to correctly answer the given question, you need to understand the relationship mentioned in the background paragraph and should be able to use it to understand that in the story. Your answer can not consist of any word that is not mentioned in any of these: the background paragraph, the story, or the question. You can directly copy and paste a span from the story or the question while answering the given question.

Question: Background Paragraph: The water level is seasonal, being lowered by about 10 feet (3.0 m) over the winter. The reservoir fills in the spring from snow melt and underground springs. The lake is usually at full level by late spring, but in the occasional years of low snow melt and low rainfall, it may remain up to several feet below its typical level. Water is let out of the lake in the fall so that ice will not damage docks and other structures around the lake. This also leads to excellent water quality, as a significant portion of the water is replaced every year. 
Story: Bob has been wanting to go on vacation to the nearest lake in his area. He prefers to go to the lake when it is at it's highest level. He doesn't want to go during the summer, and has decided he must choose between the fall, and the spring for the best temperatures. 
Question: Will the spring water level be higher or lower than in the fall?

Answer: higher.


Question: Background Paragraph: Once again, a mutation is the change in the DNA or RNA sequence. In multicellular organisms, mutations can be subdivided into germline mutations and somatic mutations. Germline mutations occur in the DNA of sex cells, or gametes, and are therefore potentially very serious. These mutations can be passed to the next generation. If the zygote contains the mutation, every cell in the resulting organism will have that mutation. If the mutation results in a disease phenotype, the mutation causes what is called a hereditary disease. Somatic mutations , which occur in somatic, or body, cells, cannot be passed to the next generation (offspring). Mutations present in a somatic cell of an organism will be present (by DNA replication and mitosis) in all descendants of that cell. If the mutation is present in a gene that is not used in that cell type, the mutation may have no effect. On the other hand, the mutation may lead to a serious medical condition such as cancer. 
Story: The specialists studied two groups of larvae. Group L displayed all kinds of mutations while group D didn't. 
Question: Which group of larvae had more changes in their RNA sequence?

Answer: Group L.


Question: Background Paragraph: Storing large volumes of data – When storing XML to either file or database, the volume of data a system produces can often exceed reasonable limits, with a number of detriments: the access times go up as more data is read, CPU load goes up as XML data takes more power to process, and storage costs go up. By storing XML data in Fast Infoset format, data volume may be reduced by as much as 80 percent. 
Story: Roger had a busy day storing XML. At 4 PM, he stored 22211 Gigabytes to the database. At 5 PM, he stored 33322 Gigabytes to the database. At 6 PM, he stored 44433 Gigabytes to the database. At 7 PM, he got dinner. At 8 PM, he stored 55544 Gigabytes to the database. At 9 PM, he stored 66655 Gigabytes to the database. At 10 PM, he went to sleep to finish storing XML tomorrow. 
Question: What time did access times go up: 4 PM or 10 PM?

Answer:
4 PM.
