Background Paragraph: Turner et al (2006) derived crash prediction models for this report’s predecessor and found a
pronounced ‘safety in numbers’ effect in the models. Using the crash prediction model for mid-block
locations, generic motorist and cyclist volumes can be used to demonstrate the impacts on the
expected crash rate of varying motor vehicle and cycle volumes. As shown in figure 2.20, an increase
in the proportion of cyclists to the overall traffic volume causes an increase in expected crashes at
mid-block locations, but the crash rate increases at a decreasing rate. That is to say, the crash rate per
cyclist goes down as the cycle volume increases. 
Story: There were a lot of motorcycles on Interstate 4 last week. On Saturday, there were 1500 motorcyclists. On Sunday, there were 2500 motorcyclists. On Monday, there were 3500 motorcyclists. On Tuesday, there were 4500 motorcyclists. On Wednesday, there were 5500 motorcyclists. On Thursday, there were 6500 motorcyclists. On Friday, there were 7500 motorcyclists. 
Question: What day had a lower crash rate per cyclist: Sunday or Friday?
answer:
Friday.

Background Paragraph: Second, sharing opinions with peers is helpful in building and increasing one's confidence. Clearly expressing what one is trying to say requires confidence and sufficient knowledge; people need to self dress what to say with their own knowledge or experiences. Thus, giving useful feedback definitely strengthens one's confidence. Moreover, peer feedback helps student to take more responsibilities in learning process. Besides doing assignments, students have to read others' work carefully as well so that one is not only responsible for his/her own work but also the others'.

Background Paragraph: Hepatitis B is a contagious virus that affects the liver, infection can last from a few weeks to a serious lifelong illness. Two different types of infection exist for this disease, "acute" and "chronic." Acute Hepatitis B is a short term illness that occurs within 6 months of exposure, Chronic Hepatitis B is long term and happens when the virus remains in the body. The younger the child is, the greater their chance of developing a chronic infection and this risk goes down as the child gets older. Approximately 90% of infected infants will develop a chronic infection.[3]. 
Story: A 4th grade classroom photo was held today. They all gathered by age. Helen was the oldest. Sandra was the 2nd oldest. Donna was the 3rd oldest. Carol was the 4th oldest. Ruth was the 5th oldest. Sharon was the 6th oldest. The last one was Michelle, who was the youngest. They all looked terrific that day. 
Question: Who has a greater chance of developing a chronic infection: Donna or Sharon?
