Input: Consider Input: W: Hello, Patrick, is that you? M: Yeah Jane, what can I do for you? W: I was calling about the apple tree that you were trimming yesterday. M: That was hard work! W: I'm sure it was. It sure looked difficult. M: Yeah, I'm glad it's finished. Hauling the branches to the front for garbage pick up was no fun either. W: Well, I don't think you're quite finished yet, some of the larger branches fell over into my yard, and I think you should come and get them. M: Listen Jane, I don't see why I should do that. You eat all the apples that fall in your yard and you've never complained about that before. W: Well, it's easier to pick up apples then to drag tree branches all the way to the curb. My kids pick up the apples, and the branches are just too big for them to drag. M: Well, I guess you'll just have to do it yourself Jane. W: Patrick, I wish you would reconsider. We've always gotten along fairly well, but I think you're out of line here. The branches are your responsibility. M: Sorry Jane, I disagree! You take the benefits of the apple tree, but refuse to deal with the bad side of it! Besides, it won't take you any time to get the branches out front! W: Get the branches off my property or I'll have to sue you. M: Yeah? For what?! You're taking those law classes too seriously! I've gotta go, I have to pick up my son. W: You'll be hearing from me. M: Yeah, yeah. See you in court Jane., Question: What was the man's reaction to the woman's threat? (A) He was ready to make a concession. (B) He was not intimidated. (C) He was not prepared to go to court.

Output: (C) He was not prepared to go to court.

Input: Consider Input: W: This week's program Up Your Street takes you to Harrogate, a small town in Yorkshire. Harrogate became a fashionable resort during Victorian times, when people came to take a bath in the mineral waters. Today, few people come to visit the town for its mineral waters. Instead, Harrogate has become a popular town for people to retire to. Its clean air, attractive parks, and the absence of any industry, make this an ideal spot for people looking for a quiet life. Now, to tell us more about Harrogate, I have with me Tom Percival, President of the Chamber of Commerce. Tom, one of the things visitor notices about Harrogate is the large area of open park land right down into the middle of the town. Can you tell us more about it? M: Yes, certainly. The area is called the Stray. W: Why the Stray? M: It's called that because in the old days, people let their cattle stray on the area, which was common land. W: Oh, I see. M: Then, we've changes in farming and in land ownership. The Stray became part of the land owned by Harrogate. W: And is it protected? M: Oh, yes, indeed. As a special law, no one can build anything on the stray. It's protected forever. W: So it will always be park land? M: That's right. As you can see, some of the Stray is used for sports fields. W: I believe it looks lovely in the spring. M: Yes, it does. There're spring flowers on the old trees, and people visit the town just to see the flowers., Question: What attracts people most in the Stray during the spring time? (A) The beautiful flowers. (B) The refreshing air. (C) The mineral waters.
Output: (A) The beautiful flowers.
