TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you will be shown a passage. You need to write a fill-in-the-gap question based on your understanding of the events that might be inferred from the passage. Your question should be answerable based on the passage and only have one correct answer. Show the gap in your question with a _ .
PROBLEM: (CNN) -- For the record, I'm not a leading fan of the economist Jeffrey Sachs. But even from the "away" team benches, you have to salute the audacity of his latest adventure. Sachs, director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, has nominated himself to be president of the World Bank. He has launched a political campaign to win the necessary votes from governments worldwide. He has won the endorsements of eight governments and 27 members of the U.S. Congress. Nobody has ever seen anything like this before. While people do "campaign" for jobs as heads of international organizations, they usually do so from behind the scenes. Their names mysteriously begin to be mentioned in the columns of The Financial Times, Foreign Policy magazine and The International Economy, but they never admit on the record that they want the job, much less go on the road giving speeches and interviews asking for it.Economist Jeffrey Sachs is mounting an unusual public bid to lead World BankDavid Frum says typically the job is awarded by a U.S. president after secret selectionHe says Hillary Clinton is a more likely candidate for the job than SachsFrum: In age of growing democracy, can top posts be handed out in secrecy?

SOLUTION: Sachs' quixotic campaign for _ president won't change that reality, even in the unlikely event that he should somehow win.

PROBLEM: (CNN) -- Bram Stoker's private journal sat unnoticed on his great-grandson's bookshelf in England for at least a year. Full of notes that would inform his legendary novel "Dracula" and other stories, the thin, unmarked book had probably been lugged down from the attic at some point, along with other things the Stoker family had passed down for more than a century and placed inconspicuously in Noel Dobbs' Isle of Wight home. Then, one day not long ago, a researcher working on a project about Stoker got in touch with Dobbs to ask if he might know anything about a journal his famous relative kept. Dobbs looked around and finally popped open this tiny book. It was signed "Abraham Stoker."Bram Stoker's journal has been found in a home on Isle of Wight, EnglandThe journal contains notes that would inform Stoker's "Dracula" and other worksAn annotated book will be published 100 years after Stoker's 1912 deathDacre Stoker, the author's great-grandnephew, shared excerpts with CNN.com

SOLUTION: "_ traveled an unusual amount for the time that he lived," Dacre Stoker said.

PROBLEM: Nasa wants to land the first humans on Mars in 2035, and to do that, it needs the world's toughest parachute. Its latest plan is to use a large inflatable 'flying saucer' that will slow a spacecraft down after piercing through the thin Martian atmosphere. Dubbed the density supersonic decelerator (LDSD), the space agency plans to conduct an ambitious test flight of its design on Wednesday at 1:30pm (5:30pm GMT). The LDSD is unique in its design, using a donut-shaped inflatable decelerator to create atmospheric drag. When attached to the exterior of a capsule travelling at Mach 4 it will be capable of slowing it down to Mach 2, where a regular parachute can then deploy.The saucer is known as the low density supersonic deceleratorThe test flight will take place on Wednesday at 1:30pm ET (5:30 GMT)Inflatable saucer is 5ft (4.6 metres) wide, weighing 7,000lbs (3.200kg)The parachute was torn apart in when it deployed in a flight last year

SOLUTION:
Last June, to simulate the _ atmosphere on Earth, the LDSD was lifted to a height of 23 miles (37km) by a high-altitude balloon.
