Problem: Maybe I was thinking of the adorable puppy that left the kennel yesterday . Anyway so I asked the girl how old she was , cause she was obviously young and she said she was in 12 grade ( not so much . I expected 6th or 7th . ) I knew she was just saying that to seem old .

Why would the girl lie about her age ?
OPTIONS:
- To make her look more youthful .
- To make her look younger .
- To make her look more learned .
- None of the above choices .

A: To make her look more learned .

Problem: Then I decided to try a 5k , with the goal of doing a 10 K eventually ( now scheduled for November ) . So the training began . And as I trained , I told Ruth about it and she decided she would run it with me but in Texas . And then I told my friend Nicole about it ... and she decided she would also run it with me , but in Washington .

What might I be quite grateful for in this post ?
OPTIONS:
- I am so happy Nicole will be running with me in Texas , I always enjoy her company .
- I have two friends who like the same thing and will make running a lot more fun .
- I ca n't believe I 'm going to do a 10 K finally - it 's been a long , hard train to get there .
- I am glad Ruth is going to run with me in Washington , she 's always a joy to be around .

A: I have two friends who like the same thing and will make running a lot more fun .

Problem: And then a few of us slipped out early to set up the picnic in Princes Street Gardens . The catering was done by Valvona and Crolla , which is apparently the best deli in the UK - and I believe it , because everything was SO good . It was nice for all of us to be able to share one big picnic together - I think it 's the only meal we ' ve eaten together since the first night here .

What may be the reason they slipped out early ?
OPTIONS:
- They wanted to avoid sitting next to other people .
- They wanted to catch the sunset later at night .
- The park gets crowded as the day goes on .
- They wanted to be the first so they could brag .

A:
The park gets crowded as the day goes on .
