Your problems at school may be a result of a number of things . You don't say much about how these classmates get along with each other. It's possible that all the students are feeling a little cautious in the first term. It's also possible that the others are unkind. If this is so, you have to find out why you are the class "outsider". In your letter you say you often offer to help others with their work. Is it possible that your classmates don't understand your offers? Could it seem that you were trying to " buy" friends with these offers? Is it possible that you took no notice of your classmates when you had your good friends near you ? They may have felt hurt at that time. It may take a time for them to believe in you if so. Try to ask one classmate directly what the problem is. If you hear a negative answer, at least you'll know what to do. Yours truly, Shelia Question: Which of the following is NOT true according to the letter? Options: A: Alice felt her classmates weren't kind to her. B: Alice was very warm-hearted to help her classmates C: Alice didn't want to get along well with her classmates. D: Alice asked two questions in her letter

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers . But last summer , Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son : suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents . " The door to his room is always shut ." Joanna noticed . Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter . "She used to cuddle up with me on the sofa and talk ," said Mark . "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something . Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady . The problem is figuring out which time is which ." Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds . "In fact , parents are first on the list ." said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers . "This completely changes during the teen years ." Riera explained . "They talk to their friends first , then maybe their teachers , and their parents last ." Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them . To break down the wall of silence , parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say , and try to find ways to talk and write to them . And they must give their children a mental break , for children also need freedom , though young . Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend , not a manager , with their children is a better way to know them . Question: What can be learned from the passage ? Options: A: Parents are unhappy with their growing children . B: Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers . C: Parents should be patients with their silent teenagers . D: Parents should try to understand their teenagers .

Ques: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: A Robot Fish has been developed by National University of Singapore's researchers from the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering.This robot fish has movements which have been inspired by the movements of the carp . There are various purposes that it can be used for.It can help in underwater archaeology ( ).For example, it can enter a sunken city where human divers cannot enter.Just like a fish , it can also look at all the comers of particular wreckage.This robot can also be used for general purposes such as detection of leakages in a pipeline or for laying down communication cables across oceans.It also has possible military uses. In order to copy carp movements, Mr.Fan studied the movements of the fish for around 3 months.He studied all the different movements of carp using different cameras and then converted these movements mathematically to transfer this data to the robot using many actuators . Professor Xu commented on the robot that the current models that copy fish movements are capable only of 2D movements which limits their capability as they are not able to dive into water.He said that his model is the first model with 3D movements which allows it to dive as well as float with the help of its fins, just as a normal fish would do.Hence, this fish model robot has much greater movement capability.It would be much harder for enemies to detect as compared to traditional ones when used for military purposes. The researches want to make their robot fish even smaller, more realistic while adding more sensors such as GPS and video camera to it.This will improve its autonomous 3D movement.They are also planning to test the fish by giving it more difficult tasks such as detecting various objects. Question: Which is NOT true about the 3D Robot Fish? Options: A: It is capable of diving into water. B: It cannot dive into water. C: It can float using its fins. D: It is difficult to detect.
Ans: B

Ques:Read the article and select the best answer. Article: The world produces about 4 billion metric tons of food a year but 1.2 to 2 billion tons is not eaten, the study by the London-based Institution of Mechanical Engineers said. It is instead thrown away. Experts say food is wasted in both rich and poor countries, but for different reasons. Elliot Woolley teaches sustainable manufacturing at Loughborough University in Britain. He spoke at the Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing, which was held earlier this month in Vietnam. Mr. Woolley said in poor countries, food is usually lost while it is still in the field or during storage and transportation. He said that is because food producers there are inefficient. These businesses are unable to operate effectively without wasting materials, time or energy. But he added that once food is sold in developing countries, people usually eat everything they buy. However, people in developed countries throw away as much as half of the food they purchase. In the US, big contributors to waste include supersized portions that customers simply can't manage, and"eat as much as you want"offers in restaurants. In the UK, over-conservative sell-by dates on labels and two-for-one offers of perishable items are key factors, encouraging consumers to buy too much food to start with and to throw away items that have reached their sell-by date, but which are still edible. And efficient farming methods, transport and storage mean that most of the wastage occurs through retail and customer behavior. The British researcher called this custom"adisgrace". Elliot Woolley has created a smartphone app that he says shows users what food they have bought and when the food is about to become unsafe to eat. It also gives information on how people can combine the foods they have to make a meal. The software program is called"Pantry App". Mr. Woolley said that people who used the app reduced the amount of food they wasted by a third. But this result came from a limited experiment -- users only followed their food use for a week. Jeremy... Question: What's Jeremy Bonvoisin's advice on handling the problem of wasting food? Options: A: Talking people out of buying so much food. B: Raising people's awareness of saving food. C: Passing a law to require people to save food. D: Persuading people to continue using Pantry App.
