Prof Roger Wotton, from University College London, found that flight would be impossible for angels with arms and bird-like feathered wings. "Angels cannot take off and cannot use powered flight," said Prof Wotton. "They would need to be exposed to very high wind velocities at take off - such high winds that they would be blown away." Some the world's most famous religious paintings and architecture make most Americans believe in angels. The study found that 68 per cent of the 36,000 adults thought that angels and demons were at work in the world. According to the latest study, angels lack the powerful muscles which allow birds to beat their wings. Prof Wotton's paper explores why there are so many stories about angels. "Angels are very powerful religious icons for people with faith. Their similarity to humans adds to their power. At the same time, they have wings on them because they are more than human. They take messages to heaven and therefore have to fly." said the academic. Question: What did the leading biologist find? Options: A: The angels and fairies are very powerful. B: It's impossible for angels and fairies to fly. C: The flight would be possible for angels with arms and bird-like feathered wings. D: The angels and fairies can sit on the tree under their own power.

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: There is an unusual holiday in the US that falls on the fourth Thursday of April every year. It is very different from Christmas, Thanksgiving, or other well-known holidays. It is called Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day. This holiday is meant to be educational as well as fun. The idea is simple, and the name says it all. It is a day for working parents to show their kids what they do all day. Although this holiday doesn't seem very complex , it has meaningful purposes. There are many good reasons why a child should know what his or her parents do at work. For one thing, it is hard for children to understand the life of an adult when all they know is school. Therefore, this holiday helps children learn what it means to have a job. It also helps them learn about the differences and similarities between their world and the grown-up world. When young people know more about their parents' lives, they can form stronger parent-child relationships. This alone is worth a day of celebration. Question: The writer thinks the holiday is _ . Options: A: usual B: simple C: complex D: meaningful

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: What do Napoleon, Clinton and Wang Nan have in common? They are all left-handed. Today about 15% of the people are left-handed. But why are people left-handed? The answer is the way the brain works. The brain has two halves---the right half and the left half. The right half controls the left side of the body, and the left half controls the right side of the body. So right-handed people have a strong left brain, and the left -handed people have a strong right brain. The two halves of the brain are about the same size. But each side controls different things. The left side controls language, Maths and logic . When you remember new words, or when you put things in order, you use your left side. The right side of the brain controls colour and music. It is also good at recognizing faces. This does not mean that all artists are left-handed and all accountants are right-handed. Some right-handers have a strong right brain, and some left-handers have a strong left brain. Question: From the passage we know _ . Options: A: all artists are left-handed B: all accountants are right-handed C: the left side of the brain controls your love of art, colour and music D: some right-handers have a strong left brain
