Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: During these past few days I have been reflecting a lot on everything that happened this past year and thinking of what I can do differently so that the coming year will be much better! Here I want to share some tips so you can also do your resolution and you can achieve them all! *Be realistic: You should always try to reach for the skies with your goals, but things like "I want to win the lottery " or "I want to lose 80 pounds in 1 month" are things you shouldn't have on your list because they will only become frustrations. *Be detailed: It's a lot easier to accomplish more specific plans than general ones. Instead of writing "I want to lose weight," put things like "I will start my Yes You Can! Diet Plan the first Monday of the year" or "I will start a movement routine 3 times a week for 35 minutes." When we put down concrete activities, we _ ourselves to them and it becomes a lot harder to come up with excuses. *Think of alternatives: At the beginning of this past year, you put that you were going to start going to the gym as one of your annual plans. During the whole year you intended to take action but you always said that you couldn't because you came home so tired from work. If this is one of your plans for this year, you should write down how you're going to achieve it. For example, "I will start going to the gym in the mornings, before work." That way you prevent what stopped you from achieving your goal last year. *Focus on goals which depend on YOU: It is very important that all of your plans are for YOU to accomplish, and it is important that you write them down that way. If one of your goals this coming year is to improve a relationship with one of your family members, make sure that you clearly put down what you are going to do for this to succeed. For example, "I will call my sister at least three times a week and I will visit her in the middle of the year." Well, I hope that you use these tips so that this year you will accomplish everything you want, and make it the best year ever! Thank you...

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: The American local food movement has been all about buying seasonal food from nearby farmers. Now, thanks to the Web, it is expanding to include far-away farmers too. A new start-up, Foodzie, is an online farmers market where small food producers and growers can sell their products. Foodzie was started by Mr LaFave and two of his friends, who met during college at Virginia Tech, where they would pay frequent visits to farmers markets. Last year, while living in North Carolina, one of them, Emily Olson, now 24, came up with one idea. She was working as a brand manager for a _ grocery chain and realized that people who enjoyed fine food but didn't work in the business had no way to discover handmade foods outside their local farmers markets. Small farmers had no way of finding or selling to faraway customers, either. Mr LaFAve and the third co-founder, Nik Bauman, both 25, worked in corporate sales and software development. "With business, food and computer science backgrounds, we figured we had everything we needed." Mr LaFAve said. The three quit their jobs, and opened this site to the public in December and the site has had 43,000 visitors in the past month. So far, 29 sellers have opened shops and 41 are in the process of opening them. The founders recently hired a fourth employee to help Ms Olson recruit new food producers at farmers markets and food shows. Mr LaFAve is convinced that the recession will not reduce people's interest in buying locally grown and handmade food. "There is misunderstanding that all these foods are more expensive than mass-produced alternatives," he said. "People are pouring their heart and soul into these products, and they are of the highest quality." Question: About the three founders, we know that _ . Options: A: they are of the same age B: they gave up their work to start the website C: they used to be colleague D: they majored in farming at college
Ans: B

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: The food on the moon has come a long way from the freeze - dried bread to half - dried food. They have changed a lot in the past few years. And now US scientists want to grow vegetables in mini - greenhouses on the moon. Scientists say they are looking forward to a time when people on the moon or even Mars will be able to eat green and fresh vegetables. Paragon Space Development Corporation has shown people what it called the first step toward growing flowers - and finally food - on the moon. Paragon, which is a partner of NASA in experiments at the International Space Station, calls it a "Lunar Oasis " This is a closed greenhouse placed in a metal box. It is designed to safely land a laboratory plant on the moon surface, and protect it while it grows. The small greenhouse is to be sent up into space by Odyssey Moon Ltd, which takes part in the Google Lunar X Prize. This competition offers $ 20 million to any company which can send up, land and operate a lunar rover on the moon surface. Leaders of Paragon say future testing of the "Lunar Oasis" will be driven by Odyssey's flight schedule, which will not happen until 2012 at the earliest. When it is sent up, the greenhouse will have the seeds of cabbage inside it. Because they go from seed to flower in just 14 days, they can complete their life cycle in a lunar night. "Growing plants on the Moon or Mars seems so far away, but it is important that we do this research now," Paragon president Jane Poynter said. "It takes a long time to do a lot of research." Question: What do we know about "Lunar Oasis" from the passage? Options: A: It is made of wood by scientists. B: It is open for people who are on the Mars. C: It can carry different kinds of plants to the moon. D: It will protect plats to grow on the moon.
