Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: One morning, a blind boy sat beside a building with a hat by his feet.He held a sign which said, "I am blind.Please help me." There were only a few coins in the hat.A man was walking by.He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat.He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it.He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up.A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy.That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were.The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?" The man said, "I only wrote the truth.I said what you said, but in a different way." What he had written was, "Today is a beautiful day, but I can' t see it." Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind.But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat.The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beautiful day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind. The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sig told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story. The first is:Treasure what you have.Someone else has less.Try your best to help those who need your help. The second is:Be creative.Think differently.There is always a better way. Question: Form the article we know that _ Options: A: the boy always has a hat on his head B: the man is one of his neighbors C: the boy is blind and needs help D: the boy works for the man

Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: I went to bed at 11pm, it was snowing. I slept deep and my clock didn't work. It was so cold that I didn't want to get up again. I called my mother "Mom, my alarm clock is dead, but tomorrow morning I need to get up at six o'clock to catch an early bus . Can you give me a wakeup call?" My mother's voice was a little dull, "Fine, dear." Phone rings pulled me out of my dreams. Mom said from the other end of the line,"It is time to get up, and you need to catch the early bus." I looked at my watch-5:40."Didn't I ask you to wake me up at SIX?" I complained."Let me have some more sleep, please!" I got up and ready for the trip. It was a dark, cold morning, and everywhere was filled with snow. As I reached the bus stop, I found a white-haired couple had already been waiting. "You see, you didn't sleep at all night and got here so early," the man murmured( ) to his wife. The bus finally came. The driver was a very young man. He waited just long enough for me to get on before he started the bus again. "Please wait," I said to the driver. "There are two older people that need to get on, too. It is so cold, and they have waited for a long time. How could you leave them behind?" Without stopping the bus, the young driver said"That's OK, they are my parents. This is my first day on the job, so they came to make sure I was all right." I couldn't hold back my tears. My mobile phone rang, incoming was my father's message, "Sweetie, your mom is not feeling well, she was awake most of the night so that she wouldn't miss your wakeup call." The wakeup call, the older couple, the young driver...reminded me of a Jewish proverb: "When a father gives something to his son, the son smiles; when a son gives something to his father, the father cries." Question: Which is the reason to keep the older people waiting so long? Options: A: To catch the early bus B: To see their son off C: To have a trip D: To make sure their son was all right on the first day to work
