IN: It was a half day today . I went home , ate lunch and had to go back up to softball . We ran . But before , I was talking to Dean . I told him once that I had a boyfriend .
Why would the narrator drop that information to Dean ?
OPTIONS:
- None of the above choices .
- So Dean would stop pursuing her .
- So Dean would help her with softball .
- So Dean would make her lunch .

OUT: So Dean would stop pursuing her .

IN: But six months ago , she was too frightened to show us even a glimpse of that . And so it is perhaps fitting that her six month anniversary with us is also not an easy day for any of us . As I write this , she is an hour into the surgery to repair her cleft palate , and she was almost as scared of the doctors and nurses as she was of us six months ago ( until they gave her the Versed , and then she began happily playing with a box of tissues ) . The difference was that now she looked to us for comfort , cuddled into my arms and was soothed by my presence .
Why would the girl be expressing a lot of nervousness ?
OPTIONS:
- She is having an issue with an operation .
- None of the above choices .
- She is having a panic attack about an anniversary party .
- She is having memories of the anniversary of her parent 's death .

OUT: She is having an issue with an operation .

IN: I agree with the sentiment that you can make a lovely drink with vodka and vermouth , but it 's no martini . For me , it needs to consist of ice - cold gin , a smidgen of vermouth , perhaps a bit of olive juice , and a big olive skewered on one of various cocktail picks that seem to reproduce nightly in our dining room . Shaken , not stirred , and poured into the glass quickly before any of the ice in the shaker can melt . While I love stories of extra - dry martini rituals , like FDR making his martinis by filling the shaker with gin and then glancing at the vermouth bottle across the room , I am not militant about the exact amount of vermouth to go in the glass .
What may be the reason for their precise drink preference ?
OPTIONS:
- They like the ingredients better .
- It has less calories .
- They think it is healthier .
- None of the above choices .

OUT:
They like the ingredients better .
