I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Autistic children may learn better from robots than from human beings, according to a study at a school in Birmingham. Two robots like humans, Max and Ben, have been helping teach autistic children at Sutcliffe Primary School since March last year. The school is the first in the UK to try the new way. Ian Lowe, the head teacher, said, "The robots have no feelings, so autistic children find that they are less terrible than their teachers." He added, "They are really cute-looking. Autistic children are hard to communicate with adults and other children, but for some reasons they like these robots. "Some children are not able to communicate with others. But they come into school and start to communicate through the robots." The robots are knee-high and move like children. The school is using them to teach phonics and play cards or memory and imitation games with children from five to ten. Dr Guldberg said, "We do many different activities with the robots acting as a model for the children's behavior. It is amazing to see how interested and concentrated the children can be when they are working with the robots. It can be very difficult to get autistic children to concentrate." He added, "If you can meet the needs of autistic children, you can meet the needs of all children. And you know, when people feel safe and interested, they learn much better." Question: The best title for the passage is _ . Options: A: Robots help autistic children learn B: Two cute-looking robots C: How to help autistic children learn D: Autistic children can learn

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father's friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul. Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie's place. We' d sit on the edge of the dock , feet dangling , and got ready for a big meal. Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart--the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part--and throw away the rest. Bernie was my father's idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie's wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon. What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don't take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life's small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life. For many years, I forgot that lesson I'd learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could. Well, I've relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That's _ . I have learned again to throw the rest away. Question: It can be learned from the passage that _ . Options: A: one has to work hard to reach his goal B: a friend in need is a friend in deed C: watermelon is the healthiest fruit D: one should keep work-life balance
A: D

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: So many of us expect everything we do to be successful. We look forward to success to show us our value or to be the top of the group wherever we are. How many times in our schooling did we hope for a high mark? We want it and then feel like a failure when we don't achieve what we want. Even when we succeed we still pass that and go onto the next success and then the next. We are not often taught how to face failures. For me, failure taught me more than success did. Success is of the moment and temporary but failure means we have ever done. It makes me stop and think. It opened my eyes and brain to different possibilities. Failure is just a choice in redoing not in giving up. Experiencing failure,I looked deeper and further. I have a grandson who plays hockey and as all players do,he went through a _ . So I saw he was unhappy with himself. Then I said to him, "Why don't you think of it differently rather than being unhappy?" And I asked, "Scoring is your goal, right?" He answered,"Of course." "Why aren't you scoring now? Do you need a readjustment ?"All of a sudden he calmed down--he was thinking of what I had just said. So in the next game I saw him trying different things to do better. Later he started scoring. Now when something is wrong, he takes the time to think it over rather than just keeping the "failure" mode . Look at failure differently. Failure is what gives us power to try a different way of doing things. It teaches us to rethink, redo, and then success will come about. Don't give up but learn to use a different way. Question: Which is the best title for the text? Options: A: Expect Success. B: Face Failures Differently. C: My Grandson and I. D: Keep Failure Mode.
