Angiyou, Paulussie, her other nephew Lucassie, also five, and her youngest son Jessie, seven, were walking to her mother's house -- only two doors down from her own -- one night last February. Animals were often sighted near Ivujivik -- a village on the shore of Hudson Bay in north-eastern Canada -- but rarely on its streets. The 41-year-old teacher and mother of five turned around. Looking behind her into the darkness, at first she thought that Jessie was the wolf. But a metre behind the boy was a 350kg polar bear -- no wolf in sight -- standing on the icy road. Jessie turned and saw it, too, then ran, screaming, to his mother. Angiyou felt a rush of blood to her brain. "Get as far away as you can!" she shouted to the boys as she ran towards the bear. She stopped just in front of it, then faced it quietly. It made a move to go around her to get to the boys, who must have seemed like the easier meal. But Angiyou moved with the bear to maintain her position blocking the children. Finally she got the animal's attention. In response, it rose on its hind legs, stretching to its full 2.5m height. The bear charged, paws thundering down and knocking her into a seated position. The skin under her nose tore. Falling onto her back, she screamed for help and kicked at the animal in a bicycling motion. She soon passed out. Sirqualuk Ainalik, a fellow teacher, had been at his brother's house nearby when Jessie dashed inside for help. Grabbing a rifle , the 33-year-old ran to the road, firing a warning shot into the air. He then aimed his gun at the huge bear. At this time Angiyou came to and heard the gunshot in the distance, then watched as the animal turned its attention away from her and towards the loud sound. With two more shots, Ainalik killed the polar bear. Question: Lydia Angiyou and _ children experienced the adventure. Options: A: two B: three C: four D: five

A huge crack spread across the library wall upstairs, sending teachers and students screaming down the hall. Had a new world war started? Pale-faced, our young science teacher quickly organized us for a fire drill. We huddled in little groups on the beach side of the school grounds and watched the spreading cloud darken the bright spring sky. Rumors flew every which way, although two hours would pass before we got the full story.One rumor we heard was that the Texas City Monsanto Chemical plant had blown up; children whose parents worked there began to weep. I froze--that was where my father was working that day. The school bell called us back inside, and we were dismissed to find our way home the best way we could. I-d walked a quarter of the three-mile trip to my home when a car horn startled me to attention. My Uncle Barney pulled up alongside me in his old Ford. The instant I saw him, I knew my father was gone. Otherwise, Papa would have come for me himself. As if in slow motion from a great distance, Uncle Barney motioned for me to get in. Numb with grief, I crawled into the back seat. I barely took notice of the man sitting there, and didn't recognize him until he reached for me. When Papa put his strong arms around me, I forgot for a moment that Cherokees aren't supposed to cry. Many of my fellow students lost their parents in the explosion. Tragedy would one day come to our family, as it inevitably comes to all, but on the day Texas City blew up, it miraculously passed us by. Because he lost his keys on that April morning, as he explained, my father lived for another 32 years-we were to have a second lifetime forever. Question: How did the science teacher react to the accident? Options: A: He was sad. B: He acted quickly. C: He panicked. D: He felt helpless.

Q: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Kids will often ignore your requests for them to shut off the TV, start their chores , or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, you've started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their room, or take out the trash. Rather than saying, "Do your chores now", you'll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores,just say, "If chores are't done by 4 p.m, here are the consequences." Then it's up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Don't argue or fight with them,just say, "That's the way it's going to be." It shouldn't be punitive as much as it should be persuasive. "If your chores aren't done by 4 p.m, then no video game time until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, that's going to be your loss." On the other hand, when dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your child says they have no homework, then they should use that time to study or read. Either way, there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off. When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when you're trying to talk to him, make no bones about it; he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Don't try to communicate with him when he's wearing headphones--even if he tells you he can hear you. Wearing them while you're talking to him is a sign of disrespect. Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing. Remember, mutual respect becomes more important as children mature . Question: Parents will be able to deal with their child more effectively if they _ . Options: A: avoid direct ways of punishment B: make him do things at their request C: argue and fight with their child D: allow their child to behave in his own way
A: A
