Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Here below we will talk about the American expressions using the word "Dutch". Many of the "Dutch" expressions heard in American English were first used in England in the seventeenth century. Britain used to be called "empire on which the sun never sets",which gained its supreme power mostly by its naval( )military forces. The period of the Anglo-Dutch Wars was a time of fierce naval competition between England and the Netherlands. At that time, the British used "Dutch" as a word for something bad, or false, or mistaken. A "Dutch agreement" was one made between men who had drunk too much alcohol. "Dutch courage" was the false courage produced by the effects of drinking alcohol. And "Dutch leave" was what a solider took when he left his base without permission. Some of these old expressions are still used today with a little different meaning. "Dutch treat" is one example. Long ago, a Dutch treat was a dinner at which the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means that when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his own share. Another common expression heard a few years ago was "in Dutch", which simply referred to the country then. Nowadays, if someone says to you, you are in Dutch, they are telling you that you were in trouble. An important person, a parent or teacher perhaps, is angry with you. Some of the Dutch expressions heard in American English have nothing to do with the Dutch people at all. In the 1700s, Germans who moved to the United States often were called Dutch. This happened because of mistakes in understanding and saying the word "Deutsch", the German word for German. Families of these German people still live in the eastern United States, many in the state of Pennsylvania. They are known as the Pennsylvania Dutch. During the American Civil War, supporters of the northern side in the central state of Missouri were called Dutch, because many of them were German settlers. In California, during the Gold Rush, the term Dutch was used... Question: Most probably, a man with Dutch courage would _ . Answer:
****

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Talking behind someone's back is considered to be rude and mean. Such a conversation can cover all kinds of criticism, from their looks to their work and personality. The other day at lunch I was with a group of colleagues, and we were talking about our boss. She is the new headmaster of our middle school. We talked about how kind she is to us. She handwrites notes to wish us happy holidays or to thank us for jobs well done. She checks on us when she knows we're facing difficulties outside school with our health or with our families. We talked about the good role model that she is for the young women in our school and the fair but firm way she treats students and parents. I thought about this after lunch. Sometimes we have the good fortune to be part of another kind of "talking behind someone's back". And too often when we say something good about someone behind their backs, they never know about it! That night, I sent her an email to report the conversation. She replied by saying how much she appreciated hearing about this, and how it made a bright spot in a tough week of testing. Watch for your next opportunity to be the reporter! Make sure you tell them about the nice things said behind their backs! Because how will they know unless we tell them? Question: What is the text mainly about? Answer:
OPTIONS:
- Conversations about others
- Rude and mean talking
- Kinds of conversations
- Talking behind someone's back
Talking behind someone's back

Q: Read the following article and answer the question. Article: "Angie, I know you like to sing," her father, a worker, told Angela Brown, "but you must have something to fall back on ." Brown took her father's advice. She got a degree in secretarial science before entering Oakwood College, in Huntsville, Alabama. However, her aim was to become a singer at religious meetings. So after graduation she headed for Indiana University to study with the famous soprano Virginia Zeani. Once, when Brown was troubled by self-doubt, Zeani said to her, "If you want to be the next Aretha Franklin, you need no more lessons," Brown remembers her saying. "But if you want to be the best Verdian soprano this world has ever seen, you must work." Work she did. Three times she competed in the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions . Three times she failed to make the final round in New York. Then, in 1997 at age 33, the age limit for sopranos to audition, she gave it one more try. She signed up at the last minute and didn't even practice, thinking, "All they could do was to tell me no, and that didn't hurt my feelings anymore." She had the strength she needed to fall back on if she failed. She won. But making it in New York was just the beginning. It took her three more years to become an understudy at the Met. But waiting in the wings was fine with her. Finally, her time came. When the featured singer fell ill, Brown earned the chance to sing the lead role in Aida. And The New York Times described her performance as a great success. Angela Brown, who had prepared for 20 years, was an "overnight" successful singer at age 40. Question: When did Angela Brown act as an understudy at the Met? Answer:
Answer:
From 2000 to 2004.
