I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: When you are about to do something brave, a cheerful wish of "Good luck!" from a friend can be helpful. But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do? In the UK and US there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer. Have you heard the saying "When you wish upon a star"? If you are looking up at the sky on a clear night and you see a sudden flash of light, it is probably a shooting star! Seeing one doesn't happen very often. The saying goes that if you see one you have been very lucky, and so if you make a wish, it will come true. Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbit's foot. Some people believe that rabbits are lucky animals, so they carry a part of the rabbit, its foot, for good luck. There are all kinds of strange, unclear rules about which of the rabbit's feet is the luckiest. It is said that this good luck tradition is the oldest one of all. However, as the funny saying goes, "Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember it didn't work for the rabbit!" People in Britain love trees. If it is autumn and leaves are falling from the trees, some people try to catch the leaves as they fall because they think each leaf they catch will bring _ a lucky month in the following year--they will need to catch 12 falling leaves to have a whole of good luck! Question: British people try to catch 12 falling leaves because _ . Options: A: the leaves fall in autumn B: there are so many leaves to catch C: the leaves can bring them a lucky month D: they want to have a whole year of good luck

How about trying to send e-cards instead? * Don't throw away your old batteries. Maybe you do not know that old batteries make the Earth dirty. This is because they have poisonous parts. So, don't throw away batteries. Keep them together. Try to use rechargeable batteries for your games and CD players. * Donate all your unwanted clothes. There are many poor families in China.

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it. It is true. People usually begin their talks with"Isn't it a nice day?" Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like. But they hardly agree with each other. One man may say,"Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It's going to rain tomorrow."Another man will say,"No, it's going to be fine tomorrow." People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it's going to rain; he won't believe anything else. When friends have a travel, they are sure the weather is going to clear up very quickly. Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says, but he doesn't always tell us what we want, and sometimes he makes mistakes. Still , he probably comes closer to being right than anyone else. Question: Many people hope the weather will be _ . Options: A: fine B: rainy C: cloudy D: like what they like to be

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: The class in America is almost the same as that in China. But something is different. In America, if the teacher asks you a question but you don't understand, you should put up your hand and ask the teacher to repeat it.
