Q: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Football is, I believe, the most popular game in England: one has only to go to the important matches to see _ . Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side or the other. To a stranger, one of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He will tell you who he expects will win such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age. Most schools in England take football seriously-much more seriously than nearly all European schools, where lessons are all very important and games are left for the children themselves. In England it is believed that education is not only a matter filling a boy's mind with facts in the classroom: education also means the training of character; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially team games; where a boy or girl has to learn to work with others for his or her team, instead of working for oneself alone. The school therefore plans games and matches for its students. Football is a good team game. It is good both for the body and the mind. That's why it is every school's game in England.

Q: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world. So comes the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls ? Why don't we use them for collecting energy? The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work? The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded LEDs which "paint" the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to "slow down". There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving. Replacing asphalt roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips. We just can't wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future. Question: When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do? - Guide them to a safer place. - Remind drivers to drive slowly. - Frighten them away from the road. - Advise drivers to choose another way.
A: Remind drivers to drive slowly.
