Q: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: A few weeks ago, I went into Chase's class for help. I e-mailed Chase's teacher one evening and said, "My son keeps telling me that the thing you're sending home is math -- but I'm not sure I believe him. Help, please." She e-mailed right back and said, "No problem! I can help Chase after school anytime." And I said, "No, not him. Me. Hegets it.Help me." And that's why I stayed with Chase's math teacher. We talked about teaching children. We agreed that subjects like math and reading are not the most important things that are learned in a classroom. We also talked about something else ---- kindness and bravery. And then she told me this. Every Friday afternoon Chase's teacher asks her students to take out a piece of paper and write down the names of four children with whom they'd like to sit the following week. She also asks the students to nominate one student who they think is the most popular student that week. They needn't write down their names on the paper. After the students go home, she takes out those pieces of paper, and studies them. In fact, Chase's teacher is not looking for a new seating chart or "popular students." She is looking for lonely children. She's looking for the ones who are unwilling to connect with others. She is discovering whose gifts are not noticed by their classmates. Then she gets to know who needs help. After watching Columbine the wise woman realized that all violence comes from loneliness. So she decided to start fighting violence early and often, and what she is doing is SAVING LIVES. And she finds the lonely kids through those lists and tries to help them. It's math to her. All is love - evenmath. Question: The best title should be _ ? Options: A: Teaching math B: Loneliness C: Looking for the lonely D: Popular students
A: C

Q: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: The term "bionic man" came from The Six Million Dollar Man which was a popular TV show in the U.S.A. in the 1970s. It was a story about a former astronaut whose body was rebuilt by using artificial parts after he nearly died. Now, a team of engineers has made a robot by using artificial organs , limbs and other body parts that comes close to a true "bionic man". The parts come from 17 manufacturers around the world. "This is the first time they've been assembled together," says Richard Walker, the director of a robot company. "It's an attempt to show the development of medical science," he says. Walker says the robot has about 60 to 70 percent of the function of a human. It stands six-and-a half feet tall and can step, sit and stand with the help of a walking machine. This kind of machine is used by people who have lost the ability to walk. It also has a functioning heart that beats and circulates artificial blood . Its blood carries oxygen just like human blood. Although the parts are used in the robot work, there is a long way to go. There are some key parts missing. There's no liver, skin or brain for the robot.

Q: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands . We need to know how to make a choice when we shop. Knowing how to make such choices is a "life skill", and we need these skills if we are to live useful and happy lives. Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I go to school by bus or on foot? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will eat junk food because it is tastier? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like this every day. We have to realize that the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, think about this: who else does your choice affect? Question: The main idea of this passage is _ . Options: A: it's important to make the right choices B: it's important to know how to compare prices C: it's important to know how to shop carefully D: we learn everything we need to know at school
