Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Today was not a good day. Everything went wrong. First, I slept late and Mom shouted at me to wake up. When I went to the kitchen for breakfast, there was no cereal. I decided to have some toast instead, but I burned it. I had to eat it anyway because there was no more bread. The juice bottle was empty, so I had a glass of cold water. When I was getting on a bus, I realized that I had forgotten my wallet, so I had to go back home to get it. Of course, I missed the bus and had to wait for the next. I was late for school and the teacher told me to stay in the classroom at lunchtime to catch up on the school work I had missed. After lunch, it was time to give the teacher our homework. I reached into my bag to get it, but it wasn't there. I had left it at home. I was in trouble again. When I got home, I went straight to my room to catch up on my homework. Mom cooked fish for dinner. She knows I don't like fish, but she thinks it is good for her son. How terrible! I hope tomorrow will be better. Question: What happened to the boy on this bad day? Options: A: He argured with his parents. B: He heard some bad news. C: He burned the kitchen. D: Many unhappy things happened to him.
Ans: D

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Can you understand the following words? "Long time no see." "Good good study, day day up." "I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face." Yes, we call these examples Chinglish, like "people mountain, people sea". Chinglish usually means English vocabulary with Chinese grammar on street signs or products. However, many English speaking tourists love them. Tom has been living in Beijing for years. "I think many Chinese people dislike Chinglish. But I love it. It's quite interesting. I think if the translations of English in China are all perfect, something will be lost from Chinese culture." However, Chinglish will probably become a part of history in future. Beijing has made a plan to correct Chinglish within five years. "It is so funny to see Chinglish on the signs. And they are a kind of trouble for communication between the Chinese and foreigners," a Beijinger said. However, some people in China like Chinglish. They think that English has "borrowed" a lot from other languages such as German, French and Spanish in the past, and now as Chinese's turn. Question: What does "people mountain, people sea" mean? Options: A: There are many people. B: Humans are powerful. C: All the people are running. D: Humans respect nature.
Ans: A

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventures--those who have climbed the highest mountains, travelled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans . Now, however, there are more people who look for an excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I would think bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles . You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other risky activities include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the water from the top of high places. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern world has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people's lives were often in danger. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was harder than that of the present days. Nowadays, to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping. Question: What is the best title of this passage? Options: A: Modern Life is Boring B: Dangerous Sports: What and Why C: Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous? D: Need for Excitement
Ans:
B
