Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Standing alone at Browns party,Anna Mackintosh thought about her husband Edward,establishing him clearly in her mind's eye. He was a thin man,forty-one years of age,with fair hair that was often untidy.In the seventeen years they'd been married he had changed very little:he was still nervous with other people,and smiled in the same shy way,and his face was still almost boyish. She believed she had failed him because he had wished for children and she had not been able to supply any.She had been annoyed for this fact over the years and in the end,quite some time ago now,she had consulted Dr.Abbat at Edward's request. In the Browns'rich living room,its walls and ceilings giving out a bright light with a metallic surface of imitation gold,Anna listened to dance music coming from a tape recorder and continued to think about her husband. In a moment he would be at the party too,since they had agreed to meet there,although by now it was three quarters of an hour later than the time he had planned to come. The Browns were people he knew in a business way,and he had said he thought it wise that he and Anna should attend this gathering of theirs. She had never met them before,which made it more difficult for her,having to wait about,not knowing a soul in the room. When she thought about it she felt herself unfairly treated,for although Edward was kind to her and always had been,it was far from thoughtful to be as late as this. Because of her nervous condition she felt afraid and had developed a sickness in her stomach.She looked at her watch and sighed. Question: Anna started to get angry because _ - she wasn't feeling well - her husband had usually been more thoughtful - she hated to see the Browns' wealth - she came to know that Mr.Brown was only a businessman
**Answer**
her husband had usually been more thoughtful

*Question*
Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: As one comes to some crossroads, he or she sees a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road; and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road. Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroad. It had a "SLOW" sign. He slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely. At once he heard a police whistle , so he pulled into the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and a pen in his hand and said, "You didn't stop at that crossing." "But the sign there doesn't say 'STOP'." answered Mr. Williams, "It just says 'SLOW', and I did go slow." The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pen away, scratched his head and said, "Well,I'm in the wrong street!" Question: Mr. Williams was driving _ one evening. - to a party - to his office - home after work - to work from home
**Answer**
home after work

Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: "Hi Dave,how are you today?Just thought I'd let you know what I'm doing,"they would read.Or "Sorry you're going.I've had a good time and that would probably have had something to do with you,so thanks." In some ways,the relaxed attitude was shocking,says Melville.But it was a sign of how students' understanding of their role has changed. "They have a more independent view of the university,and they feel free to comment,"said Melville. A committee,led by Melville,was set up earlier this year to explore the change in students' attitudes towards teachers. "This is something being driven by young people,"said Melville. "They live surrounded by different kinds of electronic resources.They use social networking tools and things like Wikipedia.The first group of these students is now at university." Students don't regard teaching staff in the same way as previous students did. "Because Web2.0, Google,Wikipedia are all about being able to change things yourself,students expect to be able to do this as well,"said Melville. There have been other changes in the student--teacher relationship.If students choose to study through a social networking group,they are in control.They don't always make staff welcome,and they are free to decide which staff members they allow in. "Almost everybody who gets into using these kinds of technologies,it appears,becomes much shallower in their research,"said Melville. Question: What's the text mainly about? - The control university students have gained in their studies. - The change in university students' attitudes to teachers. - Teachers are shocked by university students' attitudes. - Students at university become more relaxed in their social life.
**Answer**
The change in university students' attitudes to teachers.

*Question*
Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Except for the sun, the moon looks like the biggest object in the sky. Actually it is one of the smallest, and only looks big because it is so near to us. Its diameter is only 2,160 miles (3,389 km), or a little more than a quarter of the diameter of the earth. Once a month, or more exactly, once every 29.5 days, at the time we call "full moon," its whole _ looks bright. At other times only part of it appears bright, and we always find that this is the part which faces towards the sun, while the part racing away from the sun appears dark. People could make their pictures better if they kept this in mind -- only those parts of the moon which are lighted up by the sun are bright. This shows that the moon gives no light of its own. It only throws back the light of the sun, like a huge mirror hung in the sky. Yet the dark part of the moon's surface is not ly black; generally it is just light enough for us to be able to see its outline, so that we speak of seeing "the old moon in the new moon's arms." The light by which we see the old moon does not come from the sun, but from the earth. We know well how the surface of the sea or of snow, or even of a wet road, may throw back uncomfortably much of the sun's light onto our faces. In the same way the surface of the whole earth throws back enough of the sun's light on to the face of the moon for us to be able to see the parts of it which would otherwise be dark. Question: Why is the dark part of the moon not completely black? - Because the sun shines on the moon's surface. - Because the earth throws back sunlight onto the moon. - Because the moon throws back the light from the sun. - Because the moon has light of its own.
**Answer**
Because the earth throws back sunlight onto the moon.
