Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Maybe you have seen this in schools: some students are studying hard all the time but they just pass their exams, while some others may spend much less time on their books but do much better in exams. How could this happen? People used to think that hard-work is the only way to success. But now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed, too. Hard workers don't mind working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions, " Why should I suffer this? Isn't there s better way to do this?" Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. Progress in every field is the direct result of " try a better way" by smart workers. There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter, complaining that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought. How could empty soapboxes go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing . The producing was fine, but in about one in ten thousand cases, the packing machine let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineer soon work out a solution. He put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes. After teaching the worker how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted . " Sir, we could have solved the problem in a much easier and cheaper way." said one worker. " Really? How?" " We can put a huge fan near the packing machine. The wind will _ the empty boxes. There would be no need for an X-ray machine and computers." See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not work hard like the engineer, but also think smartly like this worker. Question: The article mainly tell us that we should _ in order to succeed. Options: A: think of different answers to our questions B: spend much less time on our school work C: work hard like the engineer and think smartly like the worker D: spend enough money repairing the machine for any problem

Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Parents are a child's first teachers. But some parents never learned from good examples. In New York City, Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents. The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby in different seasons. She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy. "I said 'That's not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he's going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little hugging and a little love. And it works!" Delores Clemens said. Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. "I'm doing something for them that never has been done for them before." In class, with her baby son, is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in looking for a safer life. "Did you go to high school?" "Yes." "Did you graduate?" "No, I didn't. I was in my last year and then, I got pregnant and I got lazy." "You look like you are willing to accept responsibility for that." "Yes, I am, and I would like to finish." Some teenage mothers wish they themselves could be children again. 18-year-old Placida knows that feeling. "Because you have to get up every two hours in the middle of the night, and you can't go out and say 'I am going to buy this for myself.' No. I have to buy pampers, clothes and food. So now it's two. So it's very hard." Placida said. Question: From what Placida said, we know that she thinks _ . Options: A: looking after a baby needs love B: having a baby costs more C: being a mom is hard D: loving comes from responsibility
