Nowadays a lot of people still like to ride horses. So it is not surprising that many expressions about _ are still used by Americans today. Long ago, people who were rich or important rode horses that were very tall. Today, if a girl is too proud and looks down upon others, you might say she should "get off her high horse." Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favorite television show. I decided not to answer it because "wild horses could not drag me away" from the television -- there was nothing that could stop me from doing what I wanted to do. Sometimes you get information "straight from the horse's mouth." It comes directly from the person who knows most about the subject and is the best source. Let us say your teacher tells you there is going to be a test tomorrow. You could say you got the information "straight from the horse's mouth." However, you would not want to call your teacher a horse! You may have heard this expression: "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink." That means you can give someone advice but you cannot force him to do something he does not want to do. In politics, a "dark-horse candidate" is someone who is not well known to the public. Sometimes, a dark horse unexpectedly wins an election . Another piece of advice is "do not change horses in midstream." You would not want to get off one horse and on to another in the middle of a river. Or make major changes in an activity that has already begun. Question: Which of the following can describe a person who wins an election unexpectedly? - do not change horses in midstream - wild horses could not drag me away - dark-horse candidate - get off her high horse
dark-horse candidate

Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: ARE you creative, shy, outgoing? Our personalities reveal a lot about who we are. But what's surprising is that our personality can also say something about our health. That's according to researchers at Duke University, US. During an experiment on 1,000 people, scientists assessed their personalities in two ways: by asking someone they knew, such as a family member or friend; then by asking someone they had just met, such as a nurse. The study found that those who were careful at age 26 were in better health after 12 years. Being careful means that people tend to have a lot of self-control, and are less likely to smoke, the scientists said. Careful people are also more likely to have an active lifestyle and healthy diet. From those who were least careful, 45 percent developed health problems by the age of 38. Such health issues included gum disease and high blood pressure . To compare, only 18 percent of careful people went on to develop health problems. Another positive personality was called "openness to experience", meaning curious and imaginative. People who have more of this personality have higher IQ scores. So they'd be more likely to know how to find medical help to prevent disease. According to the report, if doctors assessed our personalities, it could help doctors to find which young adults need advice on how to live a healthy lifestyle. What's surprising is that stress didn't play a big part on a person's health. Even though stress and anxiety are usually linked to bad health. But can a doctor who knows our personality really improve our health? Or should doctors be kept away from knowing something so personal? Question: From the passage, we learn that careful people _ . - are too shy to talk to strangers - love to ask the doctor for advice - are likely to have a healthy lifestyle - may have high blood pressure when they're older
Ans: are likely to have a healthy lifestyle
