Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Janice Fialka showed a new documentary about her cognitively disabled son at schools and seminars across the country.Everyone seemed to enjoy it,but one comment from a teacher proved her family's investment to Fialka was a success. "In Baltimore an early childhood teacher came up and said,'I have to apologize to the family of a 4year old with Down Syndrome ,'"Fialka said."She said,'I told them to be more realistic about their dreams for him.Now I have to tell them I'm sorry.'" The story of Micah FialkaFeldman,a 22yearold Oakland University student,is meant to show parents,educators and the disabled anything is possible. FialkaFeldman wrote in an essay titled "I wanted to go to college and my dream came true".A lot of people didn't think he could go to college,but because family and friends believed in him he learned how to take public transportation to campus and found teachers who helped him pick the best classes.

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Our culture is the system we use to build our identity. All living creatures are part of a culture. Even animals have a culture! So what is culture? It's the way we behave in a group. It begins with each individual family. Within our families we do things to build relationships with each other. This can include routines for doing things. It also includes traditions. Traditions are activities that are repeated on a regular basis. Culture is not limited to individual family groups. The real strength of culture is in larger community groups. These larger groups are called societies. Every society makes rules for itself. It decides how people should act in different situations. Some of these rules are written down. Some are just things that are automatically expected of all members of that society. Often, cultures can be identified by what the people believe. Cultures are also known by what they choose to include in their art. Sometimes a society forms around people who speak the same language. Cultures may also be known for their customs, including the foods they make and the things they do. Our cultures help us understand who we are and what we believe. There are very strong emotions connecting us to our own society. Two different cultures may disagree on something, especially if they both feel strongly about it. When that happens, war is a common result. People are learning better ways to communicate with each other. The more we learn, the more we appreciate the differences in cultures. Question: We can infer from the passage that _ . Options: A: cultural exchanges may help reduce the risk of war B: all disagreements are caused by strong feelings C: differences in culture always cause disagreements D: people haven't tried different ways to communicate
A: A

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: It might sound ridiculous that goal setting could actually hold you back from completing tasks and dreams you may have. But it seems like everyone tells you should be setting goals for everything you want to accomplish, short term and long term. Goals can help you sometimes, but in some cases they just lead to constant frustration and they actually bring you down. Let's look at this a little closer with an example. A lot of people might set forth as a goal. Many people jump online and are looking to start a business online as a way to make money from home and let's say they set a goal to make $10,000 in their first month. They do this because they seem tons of people making large sums of money in very little time so they think, $10,000 a month, that shouldn't be too hard. But what happens when you only bring in $1,000 in your first 30 days online? If this is pure profit you might still be happy but this is nowhere near reaching the goal you originally set out to meet. So naturally you would feel like you failed to reach your goal and you may be a little disappointed in yourself. If you continue not to reach this goal month in month , it starts to add up and really weighs on you. I'm not saying that they are bad and you shouldn't set them but you need to realize that you should not be emotionally attached to your goals. An alternative approach would be to set certain milestones for when you want to accomplish things and start out small. Build your confidence by accomplishing smaller feats and if you overproduce, then it will be a nice surprise. You have to have some sort of end result in mind but break it down in to a day by day task. It makes it a lot easier for you to handle by just knowing everyday you have to complete a few small tasks and over time the snowball will roll into great things. Question: In Paragraph 2 , the writer used the example to _ . Options: A: persuade readers not to be greedy for money B: prove that goals often result in frustration. C: show goal setting sometimes stops you realizing your dreams D: advise readers not to set goals to avoid frustration
A: C
