Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do.When this happens,a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing.When this does not work,the parent usually punishes the child. There are many things that a parent can do.One thing that people have done is to spank the child.When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on the bottom.This means showing the child that they have done something wrong. One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child.His parents used a wooden spoon.When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child's leg.He never did that again. One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing.Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard.Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing. Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking.Some people think that their religion tells them that spanking is okay.Some think that the law lets them do it.The courts say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave. Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child.Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing.Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried.Getting down to the child's level and taking a more child-friendly approach can help as well. Question: Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking? - It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her. - The parents may get angry and hit the child too hard. - Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything. - It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.
It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.

Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, you are communicating quite fluently, but: Listening is STILL a problem! First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening comprehension is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. The first step is to find listening resources. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.com. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station. Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated by limited understanding. What should you do? Here is some of the advice I give my students: *Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything. *Stay relaxed when you do not understand -- even if you continue not to understand for a long time. *Do not translate what you hear into your native language. *Listen for the general idea of the conversation. Don't concentrate on detail until you have understood the main ideas. I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn't understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two very important facts. Firstly, translating creates a _ l between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that -- even if I didn't pay much attention, I could usually understand what the speaker had said. Question: The best way to improve our listening is to _ . - practise as much as possible - find as many listening resources as possible - use the Internet like a radio station - speak naturally and read as much as possible
Ans:
practise as much as possible
