Q: Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer: Article: People aren't walking any more---if they can figure out a way to avoid it.. I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn't in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune, for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced -and beat--a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty. Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all. It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car. The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don't dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is _ r thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green. I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting. Options: A People usually went around on foot. B people often walked 25 miles a day C People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship. Answer: A People usually went around on foot. Question:
A: What was life like when the author was young?

Question: Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer: Article: When I was young, I lived on my mother's milk, as I could not eat grass. In the daytime I ran by her side and at night I lay down close by her. When it was hot, we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees and when it was cold, we had a nice warm wooden house. As soon as I was old enough to eat grass, my mother used to go out to work during the daytime and come back in the evening. There were six young colts in the field besides me; they were older than I; some were nearly as large as grown-up horses. I used to run with them, and had great fun; we used to gallop all together in the field. Sometimes we had rather play rough, for others would frequently bite, kick as well as gallop. One day, when there was a good deal of kicking, my mother came to me and said, "I expect you to pay attention to what I am going to say. The colts who live here are very good colts, but they are cart horse colts, and of course they have not learned manners. You have been well-bred and well-born. I hope you will grow up gentle and good, and never learn bad ways. I hope you do your work with a good will, lift your feet up well when you move quickly, and never bite or kick." I have never forgotten my mother's advice. I knew she was a wise old horse, and our master thought a great deal of her. Her name was Duchess, but he often called her Pet. Our master gave us good food; he spoke as kindly to us as he did to his little children. We were all fond of him. When my mother saw him at the gate, she would neigh with joy. He would pat and touch her and say, "Well, Pet, how is your little Darkie?" Then he would give me a piece of bread and sometimes he brought a carrot for my mother. _ There was a plowboy, Dick, who sometimes came into our field to pick blackberries. When he had eaten all he wanted, he would throw stones and sticks at us. We did not much mind him, for we could gallop off; but sometimes a stone would hurt us. One day he was at this game. Our master saw what was going on, so he jumped and caught Dick by the arm,... Options: A a wise horse B a kind feeder C the master's son D a new plowboy Answer: B a kind feeder Question:
