Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Your daughter has finally reached the age of 18, and you think perhaps your job will finally get a little easier. That could be wrong thinking - as the parent of any 18-year-old will tell you. Learning to _ an ungrateful 18-year-old daughter takes patience, understanding and time. _ When she was a little girl, she wanted you to be involved in everything of her life from her daily activities to her friends. This is' no longer the case. She's a grown woman who needs her own personal life. Comment on her choices only when asked to do so - especially if you want to say no to her. Allow her to make mistakes. No parent wants to see his or her child fall, but the days of protecting her all the time are at an end. Unless you see a train coming, let her fall when she makes poor choices. It will enable her to grow past the ungrateful "know it all" stage. Encourage dialogue whenever you can, rather than planning talks. She's more likely to open up to you when talking over something trivial . Anytime she wants to talk, become a willing listener in the conversation. You never know when a deeper, more important conversation will develop. Question: The passage is written for _ . Options: A: daughters B: students C: parents D: females
A: C
Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Is your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair,or your fridge? Probably they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, thanks to the so-called "Internet of things". The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. Earlier this year, A Samsung CEO spent a lot of time talking about the Internet things. He said that five years from now,every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things,no matter whether it's a remote control or a washing machine. So, how do household objects that are part of the Internet of things work? Well,think of a common chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold. An Internet-connected camera could help people feel safer in their homes. It can know people's faces and has an infrared sensor ,so even if it's dark it can see when someone passes by and send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who's there. If the person is someone you don't know,it can tell you that ,too. But according to MIT Technology Roview, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security systems to the Internet, there may be some problems. For example, many early connected-home objects don't have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked . Morever, it could be difficult to get these new machines to work together especially when they are made by different companies. To fight this ,many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 menbers by late 2014. So, picture this: you enter your home.The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? I t may happen sooner than you think. Question: Which of the following words best describes the writer's tone in the article? Options: A: Doubtful B: Hopeful C: Humorous D: Worried
