Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Have you seen a yellow-and-black salamander ? How about a scarlet frog? Scientists haven't spotted either species in more than 20 years. What happened to them? Are the creatures still out there, or are they extinct? Those are questions that scientists hope to answer. They recently set out around the world in search of those and other long-missing amphibians. An amphibian is an animal that spends part of its life in water and part on land. Frog, toads , and salamanders are amphibians. The experts are looking for about 100 species. They are searching at least 14 countries on five continents. They will look for the salamander in North America. They hope to find the scarlet frog in South America. They're also looking for species in Africa, Asia and Australia. Scientists are hopeful that they'll find the amphibians--and soon! If the creatures are out there, they may need help. Many amphibians are endangered. The animals face many dangers including pollution and diseases. People cut down the forests where they live. "If researchers can find the missing creatures, they might be able to figure out how to save them," explains expert Robin Moore. He began searching for the amphibians earlier this month. "This search will tell us a lot about how amphibians are doing," Moore told WR News. "I don't know what we will find, but that makes the search even more exciting." Lost in the Wild Scientists' hunt for missing amphibians is under way. Read about some of the species they hope to find. Turkestanian salamander This salamander is a mystery to scientists. Experts found a few of them more than 100 years ago, but none have been seen ever since. Gastric brooding frog Experts first discovered this frog in 1914 in eastern Australia. It may be extinct because of disease and habitat loss. Rio Pescado stubfoot toad Last sighting: 1995, in South America Scientists hope to find this spotted toad in rivers and rainforests in Ecuador. The animal faces threats including pollution and disease. Question: Which of the following animals hasn't been seen for over a century? Options: A: Rio Pescado stubfoot toad.

Ques: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A line of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes marched across the South on Friday, peeling away roofs, overturning cars and killing at least 11 people in Tennessee, officials said. It was the second wave of violent weather to hit the state in less than a week. Last weekend, tornadoes killed 24 people in the western part of the state and destroyed more than 1,000 homes and buildings. The storms crossed an area from northern Mississippi to northern Virginia as they moved to the northeast late Friday after developing from a low-pressure system in the central Plains. The Nashville suburbs were the hardest hit, with at least eight deaths happening northeast of the city. Three more people were killed in a rural area about 65 miles southeast of Nashville. Tornadoes were also reported in some other places. The storms pulled up trees, knocked down power lines and damaged buildings. What's worse, phone lines and most businesses were out of service. Hospitals admitted at least 60 people with storm-related injuries and transferred at least nine badly injured patients to Nashville hospitals. In southern Indiana, the storms damaged some areas with golf ball-sized hail. High winds blew the roof off a country club and overthrew a semitrailer . As the storms moved farther east, parts of West Virginia were lashed with heavy rain and winds, great damages caused. The number of tornadoes in the US has jumped through the first part of 2006 compared with the past few years. Through the end of March, an estimated 286 tornadoes had hit the US, compared with an average of 70 for the same three-month period in each of the past three years. The number of tornado-related deaths was 38 before Friday's storms. The average number of deaths from 2003 to 2005 was 45 a year, the prediction center said. Question: Which of the following statements is NOT true? Options: A: Tennessee was hit twice by tornadoes within a week. B: The latest tornado might start in northern Mississippi. C: At least four states were hit by the tornado. D: In the tornadoes of the first 3 months 38 people were killed.

Just two months away from her 104thbirthday, the family of young-at-heart Lillian believe she is the oldest of the social networking website's 500 million users around the world. Lillian Lowe is thought to have taken the crown of oldest Facebook user from 104-year-old Ivy Bean who died in her sleep in July. Lillian said today that she is a big fan of the social networking site. "I love it. It is very exciting. It's a wonderful way of exploring something new. But I must say it's really a waste of time. I'm sure there are lots of other things I should be doing rather than playing on a computer." She has 34 Facebook "friends" -- and her most active one is her great grand-daughter Kaylee Lowe, 10. She said, "I can recommend it to any grandparents who keep in touch with their family by telephone all the time." Lillian was born in 1907 and she can still remember the news of the Titanicsinking in 1912. Lillian said, "I think almost everything has been invented during my time. What I particularly like now is this Google Earth. "When I was 84, I visited Australia with my younger sister Mary, who will be 100 next year. "We had a lovely trip, so yesterday I looked at Australia again on the Internet. "I've always read a lot during my life, and this computer has just taken the place of a book." Her grandson Steve set Lillian up with her Facebook account -- and gave her his iPad to use. Steve said, "Now and again, she might be surprised at a few of the funny teenage behaviors she sees on Facebook. "But she's pretty tolerant and it doesn't annoy her. What's great about Grandma is that she's not afraid to take on new things and is always willing to learn -- she's a great inspiration to us all." Question: What would be the best title for the passage? Options: A: The world's oldest Facebooker B: Lillian Lowe, a lifelong learner C: Reasons for the popularity of Facebook D: The previous oldest Facebook user passed away
