I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Penelope Leach, a famous British psychologist once said: "Loving a child is a round business. The more you give, the more you get, the more you want to give." Her clever remark about parent-child relationship proves to be true of my blooded family. Born in 1928 and as the youngest of 5 children, I learned to share everything with my brothers and sisters including my parents' love. Raising 5 children during the difficult times of the Great Depression took its toll on my parents' relationship and resulted in their divorce when I was 18 years old. Daddy never had very close relationships with his children and drifted even farther away from us after the divorce. After some years, an amazing woman entered into his life, and they were married. She had two sons, one of them still at home. Under her influence, we became a "fixed family" and a good relationship developed between the two families. She has always treated us as if we were her own children. Father and our stepmother shared life over twenty-five years together before our father passed away. At the time of his death, a question came up. It's about my mother, Daddy's first wife, attending his funeral. I will never forget the unconditional love shown by my stepmother when I asked her if she would object to Mother attending Daddy's funeral. Without giving it a second thought, she immediately replied, "Of course not, Honey. She's the mother of my children." Question: What message does the speaker want to convey in this story? Options: A: Happiness is easy to find in fixed families B: Love is blind. C: Love gives birth to love. D: Divorces are very harmful to young children.

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: TOKYO - Japan is considering plans to calm tensions with China by acknowledging Chinese claims to the disputed islands in the East China Sea, while maintaining its own position, Kyodo News cited sources as saying on Tuesday. The report said that the plans would allow Japan, without changing its long-held position, to _ a little with China, which has called on Tokyo to acknowledge the existence of a dispute over the Chinese Diaoyu Islands, referred to as Senkaku Islands in Japan. Japan has refused to rescind its recent purchase in mid-September of three of the five Diaoyu islands from a so-called private Japanese owner, which the government says was meant to maintain the uninhabited islands in a stable manner, despite China's strong protest. It remains uncertain, however, whether China would be encouraged by the Japanese step to improve the tensioned ties, said Kyodo. Question: From the passage we can know _ . Options: A: Japan will give in. B: China is against Japan's purchase of Diaoyu islands. C: The problem between China and Japan has been settled. D: China is the owner of Diaoyu islands.
