Read the following article and answer the question. Article: My parents are amazing. I had the most wonderful childhood, and it's not because I had everything I wanted or because I was a cool kid. I have learned a lot about parenting from what my parents did. Here are a few gems that I use now or plan to use in the future with my two boys. Here's how a conversation often went when I was a kid. Usually it was around 4:30 p.m. I said, "I'm hungry. Can I have a cookie?" My mom answered, "No. Have a banana." "I don't want a banana." "Then you're not hungry." Sometimes I was angry about it, but I knew that was good for me. Thanks mom for not letting me eat junk food . Now I agree with my mother and I have this same conversation with my three-year-old son. I hope it helps him form healthy diet habits. I know many of us heard this as children. "If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you do it, too?" If our kids asked for something just because everyone else had it or was doing it, we often got this response. It was the perfect response, and we soon learned not to ask for things because everyone else had it, but because it was something we wanted. I will always be thankful that my parents let us try the things that interested us, not the things they wanted to push us into. This helped me try swimming, dance, and the piano before second grade. I found a love -- singing -- and kept up with that through my college years. It drives me crazy, as a mom and teacher, when I see kids who are pushed into their parents' favorite activities, even when they don't have a passion for them. Question: What are the gems in the writer's mind? Answer:
****
A: Her parents' educational methods.

Problem:OPTIONS:
- tell you how to communicate with others effectively.
- show you how to make yourself more understandable
- remind you of respecting the interviewer.
- give you some advice on facial signals for job interviews

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Most good interviewers will make an effort to establish and keep eye contact. Make sure that you do not find yourself looking down or away. If you wear glasses, be sure to buy the non-glare lenses. Do not stare. Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and too eager to add something to the conversation -- if only the interviewer would let you. Slower nodding, on the other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are validating the comments of your interviewer, and encourages him to continue. Tilting the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, shows friendliness and approachability . Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body signals. Everybody looks better when they smile. Offer an unforced, confident smile. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning idiotically for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere . It's worth remembering that the mouth provides a seemingly limitless supply of opportunities to convey weakness. This may be done by touching the mouth frequently; "faking" a cough when confused with a difficult question; and /or gnawing on one's lips absentmindedly . Employing any of these "insincerity signs" when you are asked about say, why you lost your last job, will confirm or instill _ about your honesty. Question: The main purpose of this text is to _ . Answer:
****
A: tell you how to communicate with others effectively.

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: To most people, noise pollution is a jet flying over their head. For one Spanish woman, it is a neighbor playing the piano. The woman has taken her neighbor to court. Now she wants to send her neighbor to prison for over seven years on the charges of psychological damage and noise pollution. In a country known for its noisiness, the case has raised eyebrows. Neighbors often complain about street noise in Spain, but people seeking prison time for someone practicing the piano is unheard of. At the trial, Sonia Bosom says she has been suffering noise pollution up to now due to the practice sessions of Laia Martin, who lives below her. Martin, 27, didn't admit that she played at home that often, saying she took regular classes in other towns and mostly practiced at home on the weekends. On the first day of the trial, the newspaper reported that Bosom told the court she now hated pianos so much that she couldn't even stand seeing them in a film. Bosom says years of hearing constant playing has caused her "psychological injury". Medical reports show she has suffered from a variety of problems, including insomnia , anxiety, and panic attacks. She says tests by local authorities have found that the sound levels made by the piano are up to 10 decibels higher than the limit. City authorities have asked the family several times to either stop the piano playing or soundproof the room. The family told the court they carried out soundproofing work twice but the complaints continued. The court hasn't made a final decision. A spokeswoman says the trial will end before May. Question: How did Laia Martin respond to the complaints? Answer:
****
A:
She soundproofed the room.
