Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: It was a cold evening,the night before Halloween,when something happened in my town that no one will ever forget. During lunchtime at school,some girls who were my brother's friends told him about a plan that they had to toilet paper a guy's house. They had already been playing pranks on this guy,and they were laughing about what his house would look like when they were through with it. My brother told me later that he knew what they were planning on doing was wrong,but he didn't say anything to the girls. _ . That night my brother's six friends stayed overnight at one of the girls' houses. In the middle of the night,they sneaked out of the house. They piled into one of the gifts' small blue car and set off to play their little prank. When they got to the guy's house, everything went as planned---until they got caught. The guy that they were playing the prank on came outside and saw them. Laughing,they all ran to the ear and hopped in,hoping to get away. The guy got into his car and chased after them,trying to identify them. He was right on their tail,and it scared the girls really badly, They were not sure what he would do to them if he caught them, so they went faster. Then,when they were turning on a blind curve in the road,they lost control of the car and hit a tree head-on. Three of the girls were ejected from the car and were killed instantly. The other three girls were seriously injured. One of the girls had just enough strength to get out of the car and go to a nearby house. The people who answered the door were afraid of her and didn't even believe that there had been an accident. They said,"Yeah, right,you really got into a wreck,"and they would not call the police. The three girls that died were all honor roll students and were looking ahead to doing something great with their lives. But all of their dreams were shattered when they hit the tree on that cold night. Only one of my brother's friends was wearing a seat belt,and she was one of the survivors. Now when ever I get into a... Question: When the girls were planning the little prank,----. Options: A: they didn't expect it would be so exalting B: they should have planned more carefully C: they should have taken my brother's advice D: they didn't expect it would go wrong

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Nowadays with the development of agriculture, farmers use more technology. However, they are being told more needs to be done to stop them injuring at work. One in five British workplace deaths happens in agriculture even though farmers are only a small part of the working population. During the year 2012/13 there were 1,061 injuries in total and it is thought many more go unreported. Jim Chapman from Warwickshire had his arm torn off by farm machinery seven years ago when he was 23. "You don't realize how much you rely on your second arm until it's gone," he said. He fell against a PTO shaft , a spinning metal bar at the back of a tractor. "It catapulted me from one side of the machine to the other," he said. "I landed on the floor, minus all my clothing. My left arm had been torn off." He admits that the machinery was missing part of its proper safety guard. "But again," he added, "it was a rushed day. There were a few machines that didn't work. Also, I was getting behind with the jobs." Over the last 10 years, other industries that you'd think of as dangerous, like building or quarrying , have lowered the number of workplace deaths and injures. In the farming industry though, deaths remain high with 34 deaths in 2012/13. Judith Hackett, the chair of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) says it is "not acceptable" that the accident statistics for farming are still high. "People in farming don't have minor injuries. When they get injured, it's bad." She said. "When I said to the National Farmers' Union (NFU) that if I had sons I would not want them to work in agriculture, it really made them sit up and take notice." There's a whole host of reasons why farming is as dangerous as it is. It is a very rough industry. Also, it's often because people are left alone. They could be young and inexperienced, or older people, who would have retired maybe 5 or 10 years ago in other industries. Jim wants others to learn from his experience. "Look at what you're doing before you go running in," he said. "You could... Question: From the whole text, we can see that Jim feels _ . Options: A: regretful B: angry C: shocked D: confused
A: A

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Everyone procrastinates.We put things off because we don't want to do them, or because we have too many other things on our plates.Putting things off--big or small--is part of being human. But procrastination does have consequences.When your procrastination leaves you feeling discouraged, it is time to take action, and one of the best ways to get rid of it is to make an un-schedule. An un-schedule is a weekly calendar of all the ways in which your time is already accounted for.You consider not only your timed commitments such as classes and meetings, but also your untimed activities such as meals, exercise, time with friends, and the like.Once you have made your un-schedule, you may be able to see your time is often filled with more activities than you realize, for instance, that you really don't have five hours to spend writing on the night before your paper is due.Procrastinators' views of time tend to be unrealistic, and the un-schedule can help you outline a realistic plan.By planning accordingly, you will not only get a better night's sleep, you may also end up with a better paper. The un-schedule might also be a good way to get started on a larger project, such as a term paper or an honors paper.You may think that you have "all semester" to get the writing done, but if you really map out how much time you have available to write on a daily and weekly basis, you will see that you need to get started sooner, rather than later.In addition, the un-schedule may reveal especially busy weeks or months, which will help you budget time for long-term projects. Perhaps most importantly, the un-schedule can help you examine how you spend your time.You may be surprised at how much time you spend watching television, and decide to make a change.It's especially important that you build time for fun activities into your un-schedule.Otherwise, you will procrastinate in order to steal time for relaxation. You can also use the un-schedule to record your progress towards your goal.Reward yourself for your small... Question: According to the writer, people need to make an un-schedule because of their _ . Options: A: interests in doing things differently B: determination to try out new things C: inability to manage time properly D: lack of concentration on a project
