I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Even after his death, Mitchell Whisenhunt has found a way to surprise and bring comfort to his wife and young daughter, with some letters he designated to be opened on certain dates. Mitchell lost his battle with Marfan syndrome at 26. The rare genetic disorder affects the body's connective tissue, which is used to hold together organs, cells and tissue. Ashley Whisenhunt, 22, cared for her husband until his death but said she was astonished when she discovered the 30 letters he left for her, their 18-month-old daughter Brynleigh and the community. The little girl will grow up with a letter every year from her second to 18th birthday from a man she didn't get to spend much time with but who left no doubt that he loved her unconditionally. "Through his testimony,there is so much she is going to learn," Ashley told ABC News. One letter was also addressed to their Longview, Texas, community, thanking them for their support. "It just blows my mind," Ashley said of her husband's secret gesture. "He thought about everybody else instead of himself." Ashley said she would respect her husband's wishes and open each letter as he planned, however there was one special surprise left for her that she said hit her the hardest. In a spiral notebook that Ashley used before she dropped out of college to care for her husband, he wrote a letter to her asking that she publish a book of poetry he had written. Mitchell Whisenhunt even planned his own funeral, and the funeral director said he couldn't tell Ashley because it was Mitchell's plan and secret. Ashley said she couldn't help but wonder what other surprises her husband had in store. "There are ones we still don't know about it," she said. Question: What's the best title for the passage?

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: On April 22, 2012, I jumped from an airplane 13, 000 feet up. What was the purpose? It was just to overcome my fear of heights. Seven years ago, when I went to France, I couldn't go up the Eiffel Tower because I was afraid. It seemed so high. I wanted to overcome my fear, so I could dare to go skydiving . At first, I didn't think I could, but I finally made it. I don't think that I could have jumped out of that plane without the encouragement of my wonderful friends and classmates--Yodel and Tatiana! It was a pity that we couldn't jump together. However, as we prepared to jump, there was something special among us-- a special bond. I made a reservation to go skydiving one week before the day of my jump. I felt nervous during the whole week, kind of blue; but mysteriously. When it was the moment to jump from the airplane, I didn't feel any fear... I just jumped! That was wonderful! Wonderful! There was a whole new world and the beautiful sky. I had never seen such a beautiful world! First, I felt an awful acceleration and then I felt like I was lying in the air...like a bird! I think it was an illusion, but it was wonderful! The oncoming wind blew me strongly. It was amazing! After about 50 seconds free fall, the parachute opened. When I landed on the ground, I felt a lack of oxygen. It was difficult to breathe in during the freefall. I was so glad that I survived and was able to overcome my fear! Everything went well! If possible, I want to jump again. My first jump is an outstanding memory for me. Question: By saying "I finally made it", the author means _ . Options: A: he gave up going skydiving in the end B: at last he succeeded in skydiving C: he made up his mind in the end D: he finally made a reservation

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: There is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident. After the accident, only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained. He was a brilliant, creative, and educated man. He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world, so he became very depressed after his accident. He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way. Then, he realized that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult. An idea occurred to him. "Why not write to other people who need encouragement?" He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied, "Writing to the prisoners is acceptable, but your letters will not be answered." Filled with excitement, the man knew he could write his letters. He began sending one-way messages of God's love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, testing his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith. It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of a reply. One day he received a letter from the prison ministry. It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail. The letter said, "Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from cell to cell until they literally fall to pieces!" No matter what circumstances life may present, we all have unique experiences, abilities, and God-given talents. We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength. Question: What can be the best title for the passage?

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Some people are like homing pigeons; Drop them off anywhere.and they'll find their way around.Other people.through, can't tell holding a map upside down.Are the directionally challenged just bad learners? Not all of your navigational skills are learned.Research shows that your sense of direction is innate.An innate ability is something you are born with.Your brain has special navigational neurons--head-direction cells, place cells, and grid cells --and they help program your inside compass when you're just a baby. In 2010.scientists carried out an experiment to study baby rates' activity in their brains.Although the rats were newborns.the researchers discovered that their head-direction cells(which help them recognize the direction they're facing) were fully grown and developed.The rats.it seemed.were born with a sense of direction.And they hadn't even opened their eyes yet! Humans.of course, are not rats.But the hippocampus --the brain we use for navigation--is similar in most mammals.If the rat's compass develops this way.then it's likely a human's compass does, too. If we're born with a sense of direction.then why are some people so good at getting lost? The scientists found that the two other cells---place and grid cells--developed within the first month.Place cells are thought to help us form a map in our mind.while gird cells help us navigate new and unfamiliar places.The two cells work together, and that's where the trouble might be. People who took part in a 2013 study played a video game that required them to travel quickly between different places.Monitoring their brains.the scientists.According to researcher Michael Kahana, differences in how gird cells work may help explain why some people have a better sense of direction than others. Question: Why are some people so good at getting lost? Options: A: They can't remember landmarks B: Their grid cells can't work very well C: They are unfamiliar with new places D: Their ability to follow directions is poor
