Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Native to America, the cane toad was introduced to northern Queensland 70 years ago to control sugarcane beetles . The toads failed in that duty but spread across prefix = st1 /Queenslandand into neighboring northern area. Now it calmly invades the states of Western Australia and New South Wales (NSW). NSW wildlife experts fear _ --which have poisonous backs that kill hungry predators, --will have a terrible effect on native animals. Those fears may be about to be realized. Australia's leading government research body, the Commonwealth Science and Industry Research organization (CSIRO), forecasts a rise in average temperatures that will make NSW ideal living place for the cane toad. Tony Robinson, head of CSIRO's Wildlife,Pests,and Diseases Program, said climate change is increasing the amount of suitable living place for the toad. "With climate change, the cane toads might go down as far as Sydney and some areas of Western Australia," Robinson said. Recent estimates put the pace of the toad's westward march at nearly 17 miles(27 kilometers)a year and slightly slower from north to south. More southerly cities, such as Melbourne and Adelaide, would likely remain too cold and dry to ever suit the toads, Robinson noted, but Perthcould expect cane toads in five years' time. Sydney could see their arrival in the next 20 years. Robinson said there is no 0ne method that will keep the toads under control. The cane toads already cover at least half of Queenslandand most of the northern country the toads are believed to number in the billions. A Venezuelan virus was tried in the 1990s but had to be given up after it was found to also kill native frog species. Scientists and governmental bodies believe a national approach is needed. The main threat the toads cause to species such as dingos, quolls, goannas, and crocodiles is the poison contained in glands on each of the frogs' shoulders. The poison sprays out when the toads are threatened or handled roughly. The poison is made up of 14 different chemicals.... Question: It can be inferred from the passage that_. Options: A: The cane toad bites its enemy dead when it is threatened or handled rudely. B: The cane toad has already threatened the survival of the native species. C: Scientists and governmental bodies have achieved a successful biological - control program. D: The cane toad likes warm and wet weather.
Ans: D

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: I left home to support my sister in her efforts to present a music festival. She lives on the other side of the world, and I went to visit her, not wanting to leave and feeling like I was leaving home against my will. However, I wanted to show her my support because she is my only sister. So I boarded the plane in mid-August, and hated the long flight. I arrived, tired and hungry. I had left my husband of 2 years, alone, in our old New Orleans house. I was all set and ready to perform for my sister for the music festival on Sunday morning when I received a call from Chicago. The hurricane was predicted to hit our city, and many people had already _ , but my husband chose to stay behind. He could not get a call to me on the other side of the world, but he could call his cousin in Chicago. He gave his cousin a message for me, that he would be just fine, and not to worry. As the day wore on, I finally took the stage in front of hundreds of Europeans, and I realized, thanks to CNN, that New Orleans was under water. I performed, hoping that my husband would survive. And I performed perfectly. The audience stood and applauded. I left the stage and went straight to the TV. I saw the street sign near my home, of Humanity Street, but nothing below it, except water. In the days that followed, I found out that my house, my car, my clothes, my furniture, everything that I'd left behind was gone...but not my husband. He survived by riding on the rear bumper of a VW bus, holding on to the overhead luggage rack, in the pouring rain, down the highway from New Orleans, half-way to Baton Rouge. The rest of the journey was a long walk, but he survived. By the first week of September, I flew back to the Baton Rouge airport, and hugged my husband. Since then, our relationship has grown deeper; we have completely rebuilt our house, bought a new car, bought new furniture and new clothes and joined an inspirational, spirit-filled community. Question: What might be the title for the passage? Options: A: Lost it All, Gained Even More B: Once Gone, Never Returned C: Caught in the Hurricane D: Trapped in a Dilemma
Ans: A

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: As a boy, Sanders was much influenced by books about the sea, but by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a doctor. So he was often with the doctors and got along very well with them. When he was fourteen, he was already hanging around the hospital where he was supposed to be helping to clean the medicine bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the doctors' conversations with patients in the next room. During the war Sanders served in the army as a surgeon . "That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with real sufferers and on the whole making a success of my job." In Rhodes he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skill to himself and had a firm belief that he could serve those who lived simply, and were dependent upon him. Thus, while in a position to tell them what to do he could feel he was serving them. After the war, he married and set up a practice deep in the countryside, working under an old doctor who hated the sight of blood. This gave the younger man plenty of opportunities to go on working as a life-saver. Question: When the war was over, he _ . Options: A: had the happiest time of his life B: started to hate the sight of blood while working C: served the countrymen under an old doctor D: had few chances to be a "life-saver" because he was younger
Ans:
C
