Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: MONTREAL--He may be the world's richest man, but that didn't prevent Bill Gates from falling for an April Fool's day joke by two Quebec radio comics pretending to be Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien. Montreal French-language station CKMF--FM said last Wednesday that staffers Marcantoine Audet and Sebastien Trudel had a 10-minute telephone chat with Microsoft Corp boss Gates on April 1. The broadcast was aired on their nightly show last Tuesday and repeated last Wednesday. "We were happy. We had been calling Microsoft persistently for four weeks," Trudel said. Trudel said he and his colleague had already fooled Canadian pop singer Celine Dion and Formula One driver Jacques Villeneuve on their show. "This time, we wanted to give ourselves a challenge with somebody more difficult to reach," Ttudel said. He said he was surprised that Gates's assistants did not check to see if it was really the prime minister's office on the line. Trudel said they imitated Chretien's heavily accented English, talking about the economy, asking about Microsoft's Windows operating system and inviting the multibillionaire to visit a well-known Montreal strip joint . The radio host said that Gates was not amused by the fake interview. "He did not seem angry but he did not find it so funny," the comic said. Question: We can conclude from the passage that the two comics _ . Options: A: liked to fool famous people on their show B: thought that Gates was not a great challenge to them C: had a good knowledge of Bill Gates and his Windows operating system D: were not quite satisfied with their tricks
Answer: A

Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Almost everyone accepts the fact that crime can never be wiped out entirely. Thus control of crime becomes the focus of police and government around the world. The question lawmakers must answer is, "Which system of criminal punishment works best for society?" Each country has developed its own ideas for solution to this question, and these solutions then determine how criminals are punished under different systems. However, none of the current system in use has proved 100 percent effective. There are many ideas about punishment of criminals. Some systems look only to get retribution against criminals. These systems work to frighten criminals away from repeating a crime in the future. These systems also try to deter others in society by using the criminal as an example of what can happen to a person if he or she is caught committing crimes. Rehabilitation is another philosophy by which many systems of punishment operate. The goal of these systems is to return a former criminal to society after a required period of treatment and training, usually in prisons. The idea is to help change the person's behavior so that he or she becomes a law-abiding citizen. Capital punishment is another form of punishment which systems use in extreme criminal cases, sometimes involving such crimes as a murder, rape, and violent theft. In these cases, the person is put to death. Today, capital punishment is used in relatively few countries. Many countries have done away with it. In other words, capital punishment remains only in officially law books but is rarely used. However, capital punishment remains in use in some countries including the United States. When looking at the number of crimes committed, the effectiveness of any of these forms of punishment comes into question. In the United States, for example, 80 percent of the people arrested each year are male, and the majority of these are young men or boys. One-third of all auto thefts, robberies, and burglaries are committed by young men under the age of 18. Generally,... Question: What is a big problem with the system of rehabilitation ? Options: A: Prisons are full B: Criminals repeat crimes C: The crime rate is going up D: Young men are going to prison
Answer: B
