Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: I had managed to sell all my papers and was coming home in the snow. It was that strange hour in New York when the workers were walking towards home in the evening. I recognized my father near Cooper Union, a frozen figure in an old overcoat standing by a banana cart . He looked so lonely; tears came to my eyes. Then he saw me, and his face lit with his sad, beautiful smile. "Arch," he said, "so you have sold your papers! Come and eat a banana." He offered me one, but I refused it. I felt it important that my father sell his bananas, not give them away. He thought I was shy, and joked with me, and made me eat the banana. It smelled of wet snow. "You haven't sold many bananas today, Dad," I said. "What can I do? No one seems to want them," Dad said. It was true. The crowds pushed home; the sky darkened over the New York buildings; the tall street lamps were lit; street cars and bikes went by. Nobody and nothing in the great city stopped for my father's bananas. "I ought to yell ," said my father sadly. "I ought to make a big noise like other peddlers , but it makes my throat sore. Anyway, I'm ashamed of yelling; it makes me feel like a fool." I had eaten one of his bananas. A voice deep down told me that I ought to pay for it somehow. I must remain here and help my father. "I'll yell for you, Dad," I volunteered. "Arch, no," he said, "go home; you have worked enough today. Just tell momma I'll be late." But I yelled and yelled. My father, standing by, spoke words of praise, and said I was a wonderful yeller. However, nobody else paid attention; nobody listened and came to buy our bananas. My father tried to stop me at last. He said, "That was wonderful yelling, Arch. But it's just we are unlucky today! Let's go home." I insisted on keeping up my yells. But at last my father persuaded me to leave with him. Question: The son yelled in order to _ . - prove he was angry - show his excitement - get the praise of his father - help his father sell bananas

Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: For thousands of years, people have seen things they didn't understand in the sky. The United States Air Force first used the words "Unidentified Flying Object" to describe them. Today everyone uses the term UFO. When people see a UFO, it is usually no more than a weather balloon or an airplane. But the Center for UFO Studies goes on to receive hundreds of reports each year. In 1947 a businessman and pilot, Kenneth Arnold, was flying near Mount Rainier, Washington when he saw nine shiny, round objects flying through the air. He told a newspaper reporter they looked like "pie plates skipping over water." The reporter used the words "flying saucer " in his story and today that is the popular name for UFOs. The Center for UFO Studies lists three kinds of contacts with flying saucers. "Encounters of the first kind" are reports of unknown objects or lights in the sky. People have "Encounters of the second kind" when a UFO leaves burn marks or other signs on the ground. People report "Close encounters of the third kind" when they see aliens in or near a UFO. Question: Why did the newspaper reporter use the words "flying saucer" to describe the UFO that Kenneth Arnold said he saw? - Because the UFO that Kenneth Arnold saw was flat. - Because Kenneth Arnold told the newspaper that what he had seen in the sky was round. - Because Kenneth Arnold described what he has seen looked like a plate flying in the sky. - Because what Kenneth Arnold saw was pie plates flying in the air.
Ans:
Because Kenneth Arnold described what he has seen looked like a plate flying in the sky.
