Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Today many people say that women have the same chance as men in society. But this was not always so. In the past, women all over the world had to fight to get the same chance as men in education and jobs. Many people said that women should not receive much education because they would not do as well as men when they went to work. One woman who showed that women should have the same chance was Marie, a scientist. In the 1800s scientists knew that a metal, uranium, gave off radiation. They also knew how much radiation came from his element. But they didn't know what this radiation was like; they wondered why and how uranium gave off radiation. Marie Curie set out to answer these questions. In one of her experiments she was studying a certain material which, she knew, contained uranium, But it gave off 4 times as much radiation as usually does. What could explain this fact? Marie Curie thought that there must be another source of radiation in this material. In 1898 Marie Curie set out to find out this new source of radiation, which she named "radium". Her husband, who was also a scientist, helped her. They set up a laboratory in an old building behind a school. For four years Curies searched, doing many experiments, And one morning in 1902 Marie found the source of the radiation. Marie Curie proved to the world that there was element that gave off radiation. And she also proved to the world that, if women are given truly equal chance, they can really help society. Question: Marie Curie proved to people . - that there was a new element uranium - that there was a new element radium - that women could do their work as well as men if they were really given the same conditions - both B and C
both B and C

(Question)
Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Today I find myself in one of the safest cities in the world, Singapore. But the truth is, even here in Singapore, security cannot be taken for granted. It is a small nation that has no natural resources to speak of, even something as basic as water is constantly threatened to be cut off by Malaysia. Months after the September 11thattacks on US oil, a plot to bomb American soldiers near their military base in Singapore was uncovered by the local authorities. The United Nations has tried for more than half a century to architect peace for the world. But it has clearly failed. The grand horrors of the World Wars may have stopped but only in the forms they had existed before. When the enemy is unseen and there are no front lines, have we in fact created a more peaceful and secure place? Where have we gone wrong? Perhaps it is because the international body has never understood that peace was, is, and will never be something it can manage. Not recognizing this truth, the methods it provides are often short-lived and some even dangerous. Solutions for threatening situations tend to require the countries to carry out economic and political reforms so that they will become idealized democratic society like America or Britain. The UN fails to consider that hundreds of years of evolution gave rise to these strong democracies. So the result is further chaos and corruption, worse for all. Actually, an international organization or a government cannot possess peace to give away, but there are those who do possess it. Those who own peace are us, as individuals who cherish life, not our own but all others'. The act of achieving peace lies in us when we choose to respect social and cultural differences and appreciate that all our lives are fragile. Question: Who takes the responsibility to bring peace and security to the world? - The individuals. - The governments. - The international bodies. - The democratic countries.
(Answer)
The individuals.

Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Vienna--Although Iraq's decided to stop oil deliveries , the 11-nation Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) will not increase production to make up the shortfall caused by Iraq. The 11 oil ministers decided to meet again on July 3 to discuss the effects of the Iraq temporary stop. The organization's president Charkid Khelil of Algeria said after the meeting that stocks were high and prices were stable and that quota increases were not necessary. The EU Commission has also expressed concern about Iraq's output stop. A speaker said OPEC had to take all possible measures to keep or lower the oil price. Saudi Arabia's Oil Minister Ali Al-Nuaimi had earlier said that there would not be any shortfall of oil in the market. The organization had already taken steps to fill the gap , he said. OPEC Secretary General Ali Rodriguez added that the period of the Iraq stop to export was not known, so other exporters were not going to lift quotas yet. If the market was destabilized , a suitable response would be made. Iraq stopped delivery of crude oil on Monday to protest against the UN Security Council's decision to extend the oil-for-food program by only a month, instead of the normal six-month renewal . Just before the Vienna meeting, oil prices had gone up, with a barrel of OPEC crude selling for 27.05 dollars, up from 26.81 dollars last Friday. And north sea oil was at 29.26 dollars Monday evening. OPEC wanted the oil price to stay within a margin of 22 to 28 dollars and achieved that in January and March by reducing 2.5 million barrels per day off quotas. Question: The main idea of the passage is _ . - the oil prices were going up fast because Iraq had stopped oil deliveries - oil is connected with people's daily life - OPEC has stopped the oil price to stay within a margin of 22 to 28 dollars - OPEC will not increase oil production to make up the shortfall caused by Iraq
Ans: OPEC will not increase oil production to make up the shortfall caused by Iraq
