Article: This is new for me and I don't know what to say really, so I just want to have a try.I was always a runner and in pretty good shape for most of my life.Then unluckily, I couldn't get myself out to run. I put on weight and it made me feel worse about myself.I found it was much harder to begin to run again after a few years than it used to be and I tried my best through even the shortest, slowest jog. I was out in a run the other day and I had almost decided to give up before I heard someone say ,"You can do it ! It's hard ,but you can do it !"there was a lady walking the other way and had the biggest smile on her face. Those words encouraged me at a time when I was ready to give up.I finished my run and now every time I feel like giving up ,I can "hear"her encouragement. I've never seen her again ,so I've never been able to thank her and let her know that something so simple as a few words of encouragement from a stranger influenced (and still influence)me so much. Question: When the writer wanted to give up ,a _ encouraged her. Options: A: men B: lady C: child D: student

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: It is probably the strangest sport anyone has ever invented.And at first sight,it looks like the easiest.Competitors have to do two things.The first is to stand still.The second is to place their hands anywhere on the body of a car,and keep it there. This is where things start getting difficult.Lots of people are doing the same thing.And the winner of the "handathon" contest is the person who can carry on doing it for the longest time.That person gets to own the car. It still seems to be an easy thing to do.At the beginning it is.Anyone can stand still.But when the contest has been going for four or five days,standing still seems like the most difficult job in the world.And keeping the hand in place over this time becomes an act of serious attention.After a few days,the hand seems to belong to someone else--someone who wants to go home and get some sleep. Competitors are allowed to take a five-minute break every hour to eat,drink or do whatever else is necessary.No one is allowed to lean on the car for support.Winners need to be able to show great powers of attention.They also need to be able to develop special skills. Maybe the popularity of the handathon is due to the fact that it is not necessary to be a trained athlete to enter.Entrants in the Longview handathon certainly don't seem to do much preparation.Most say they will prepare by "getting lots of sleep".Others say they will "eat healthy food" or "pray for success".The whole event gives ordinary people the chance to do something interesting and win something in the end. Handathons are competitions,but there is little rivalry between competitors.They help each other out and keep each other's spirits up.People who drop out early return with food,drink and encouragement. Question: Which of the following about handathon is not right? Options: A: The person who takes part in it should stand still. B: The person who takes part in it has to place his hands anywhere on the body of a car,and keep it there. C: The person who takes part in it can have a break during the course of the competition. D: Handathons are competitions,so competitors don't encourage each other.
