Problem: A good book adaptation is like pornography -- I know it when I see it . I think it helps when the people doing the adaptation have a deep love for the original material and a strong vision of what they 'd like to do with it . Sometimes , that vision clashes with the original material ( as in Starship Troopers , where Paul Verhoeven used over - the - top parody to make a film that had the opposite message of the novel -- and for the record , I liked the film better than the book ) . Sometimes , that vision humanizes a very cold and analytical novel ( as in the George Clooney adaptation of Solaris , which I also loved , and not just for Clooney 's butt ) .

What might I mean when I referenced George Clooney 's butt ?
OPTIONS:
- It was just a figure of speech .
- George 's butt was the only thing good about Solaris .
- Clooney wanted his butt taken out of the movie .
- I liked seeing his rear end in the film .

A: I liked seeing his rear end in the film .

Problem: Then he wrapped my hands , put the gloves on me and brought me over to the heavy bag . He 'd call out strings of punches like , " 2 , 3 , 2 , 4 ! " and I 'd have to hit the bag with the corresponding punches that I just learned . That part was fun .

What is the narrator describing ?
OPTIONS:
- They are describing the corresponding punches .
- They are describing buying a heavy bag .
- None of the above choices .
- They are describing receiving personal training .

A: They are describing receiving personal training .

Problem: Although coyotes eat lots of rodents , they also prey on blacktail fawns during springtime . They do have an effect upon the deer population . However , it is debatable whether shooting a single coyote has any impact at all upon the deer population . If one could effectively manage the coyote population , then shooting coyotes might be meaningful .

Why do coyotes choose to also prey on blacktail fawns ?
OPTIONS:
- They are not capable of calculation or discrimination when they hunt . It 's a matter of instinct .
- They have grown tried of eating only rodents , and are trying to add spice to their diet by moving on to deer
- None of the above choices .
- They are systematically trying to eradicate the deer population because they want to have a stronghold on the land

A:
They are not capable of calculation or discrimination when they hunt . It 's a matter of instinct .
