Read the following article and answer the question. Article: I'm 14, a year younger than most of my classmates. A week ago one of my classmates, Nitin, asked me for help with math homework. We ended up talking about computers and file-sharing . As we talked I found that he was more experienced and could teach me about file-sharing and networking. We went to his room and watched a movie about robots that he'd downloaded. The math homework was forgotten. The next day he came again for homework help "What do you do on weekends?" he asked. The truth is, when I have work to do, I do it. I have no special time to with friends. I was embarrassed about this. I expected him to think I was boring and said, "Get a life!" He said, "OK. You're having trouble getting along with people I can show you. I'm old than you." Later, he checked my computer. He even connected me to an Internet chess server .He was becoming like a big brother. But when I thought about it, I didn't really want Nitin's help" His big-brother idea began to bore me. "I'll get you some cool computer programs ". "I'll teach you how to talk to girls." He meant what he was saying, but I don't know why it didn't make me feel good. Since then he's hardly talked to me; we seem to have forgotten each other. I don't think he can "teach" me much, and I don't think much of him. But I could be wrong* Question: What did Mitin help me do? Answer:

OPTIONS:
- He helped me with my homework.
- He helped me with math problems.
- He taught me about file-sharing and networking.
- He introduced some fiends to me.

Answer: He taught me about file-sharing and networking.

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Why do earthquakes happen? Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates . For example, at San Francisco the Pacific Plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American Plate. The Pacific Plate is moving very slowly-at 5. 3 centimetres a year. Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years. Then suddenly, they jump and an earthquake is felt. As the movement of these plates, West America near the sea has always been a bad place for earthquakes. When the 1906 earthquake happened, the Pacific Plate jumped 5-6 metres to the north. We cannot stop earthquakes, but we can do things to make sure they don't destroy the whole of cities. First ,it is not a good idea to build houses along the lines, where two of the earth's plates join together. Second, if you think there may be an earthquake, it is better to build houses on rock not on sand. Third, you must make the houses as strong as possible. Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake, but strong ones may stay up. Question: We _ to make sure earthquakes don't destroy the whole of cities. Answer:

OPTIONS:
- should build houses far from the earthquake line
- should build houses on rock not on sand if we think there may be an earthquake
- must make the houses as strong as possible
- A, B and C

Answer: A, B and C

A few days earlier, the snake came to the restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. " I tried to pick it up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door." Jackson said. Anyway, Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong because they didn't know what kind of snake it was. Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day.
