I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Many students are planning field trips as spring draws near. Fourteen-year-old Zhou Liqun is busy digging holes along rivers. The girl and her "One Piece of Paper Team" are planting trees to improve the environment. They collect waste paper to sell for trees and have set up websites to spread the message of connections between humans and nature. "We want to make environmental protection everyone's habit," says the girl. "Even a piece of paper matters." Eager to join Zhou in such meaningful work? Now you are offered advice on what to do. Last month, measures for public participation in environmental protection were published by the State Environmental protection Administration . The special measures are expected to change the light rain of the past into a storm of environmental protection. Last year's Songhua River pollution acted as an alarm to Chinese people. According to SEPA officials, environmental pollution has become serious, and will continue so for the next 15 years. A recent survey showed that though most Chinese people care about environmental problems, they don't put their concerns into practice. One reason is that they don't know how. So the newly published measures present information about how to report environmental problems and how to join in the battle against pollution. Actually there is much you can do in daily life. Buy less to reduce waste. Don't throw away things before you have made the most use of them. Use electricity, water and gas only when necessary. Switch them off when you don't need them. Everyone can participate in making the planet suitable for future generations. Why not join in and make our world more fantastic? Question: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? Options: A: Zhou Liqun dug hole along rivers. B: The students have set up websites. C: Buy less to reduce waste in daily life. D: Never use coal, water and gas unless necessary.

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Have you heard of snake robots? Scientists and doctors are already using tiny snakes that coil through the human body armed with sharp surgical tools to perform operations on hearts, prostate cancer, and other diseased organs. The snake robots that carry tiny cameras, scissors and forceps, and even more advanced sensors are being developed. The next generation of the robots will be wireless, and will explore inside your body on their own--- not attached to any cables. For now, they are powered by cables that humans control. Experts say the day is coming when some robots will roam around the body on their own. But the experts in robotics say the new creations work best when they are designed for very specific tasks. Howie Choset has been researching and building robots, particularly snake robots. He believes that his snake robot and others like it can help reduce medical costs by making complex surgery faster and easier. Choset says his new design is smaller and more flexible than earlier models. The size of surgical robots allows surgeons to operate with far less damage to the body, helping the patient heal faster. Choset has also built larger snake robots designed for search and rescue, or just exploration. They can climb poles and trees and then look around through a camera in the head and slither through places that humans cannot reach. " We sent our snake robots into these caves in the Red Sea to look for evidence of ancient Egyptian ships," he said. " To me, archeology is like search and rescue, but everyone has been dead for 5,000 years." The doctors are very excited about the potential for surgical robots to do things that humans can't do. The variety of sensors available for surgical robots keeps expanding. As they get smaller, maybe one day they will be able to test chemicals or blood in the body, or even the electrical connections in nerves. Question: The writers attitude towards the new technology is _ . Options: A: optimistic B: doubtful C: objective D: negative
(Answer)
A

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: For most people,below--freezing temperatures generally put a stop to outdoor exercise,but Siberian native Boris Fyodorov is not most people. Minutes after the calendar ticked over to this past 2014 New Year's Eve,Fyodorov set off on a solo,out--and--back marathon run from his home in the Siberian village of Oymyakon,completing the 26.2-mile course-his first marathon-in just over five hours.During the run he experienced temperatures as low as -38oC. And that was just the way he wanted it. "I heard about other marathons around the globe,naming themselves 'the coldest',like the most recent North Pole marathon with runners going at -28oC.'' Fyodorov told the Siberian Times."I thought surely this cannot be right.Our Oymyakon is the coldest inhabited place in northern hemisphere.Why don't we arrange a marathon here?'' Oymyakon is widely considered to be one of the coldest places on the planet,and its record-low temperature of-68oC, recorded in 1933,is tied for the coldest recorded temperature for any inhabited place on Earth.The average January temperature in the area is -50oC. Not only did Fyodorov finish the marathon in high spirits,but he also wants it to be colder the next time he tries it."I really want to organize next Oymyakon marathon in January when the air goes down to -50oC or -60oC,"he said. Fyodorov is not the first person to take on a cold--weather athletic challenge like this.In addition to the North Pole Marathon that he mentioned,the Antarctica Marathon is held every year in late February,taking runners on an out--and--back tour from Russia's Bellingshausen Station.A second Antarctica event--the Ice Marathon--has been held80F degrees south since 2006.
