I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: To write a great news story , you have to make sure it is correct , relevant and fresh.. For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts. Any mistakes that appear in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble. For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn't the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake. A news story is not only correct ,but also relevant to its readers . People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them . That is why you care more about what happens at your school that at American schools. It is also why newspapers in Beijing don 't talk about much news in Shanghai or Hong Kong. Finally, news must always be fresh . When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happens that day. You don't want to read about news from last week ! So, now you know what makes a good news story . Have a good look at our newspaper and see if it is full of good news .you can try writing a news story for our newspaper like a real reporter. Question: Which of the following is true? Options: A: A small mistake can't get a newspaper into trouble. B: A lot of people like reading about news from last week. C: The passage doesn't tell us who was the first man to go into space. D: People are mostly interested in news that happens far away from them.

Article: A judge was working in his room one day when a neighbour ran in and said, "If one man's cow kills another's, is the owner of the first cow responsible?" "It depends," answered the judge.

Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Imagine the situation. You are driving along in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device which uses satellites to find the user's position. It can find your position to within 20 meters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are. GPS, which means Global Positioning System , is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in you pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street. There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. the second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. _ control the satellites and make sure they are working well. Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate . There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.GPS Question: The passage is mainly about _ . Options: A: The history of the GPS B: the introduction of GPS C: the shape of the GPS D: the three parts of the GPS

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Stanley, as a son of a very poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his hometown. "There's so much to learn," he'd say. "Though we're born stupid, only the stupid remain that way." He decided that none of his children would be refused an education. Therefore, Stanley insisted that we should learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, we'd still do _ . And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we learned. We would talk about the news of the day. Sometimes the news was unimportant, but it was always taken seriously. Stanley would listen carefully and discuss it with us. Then came the moment--the time to share the day's new learning. "Felice," he'd say, "tell me what you learned today." "I learned that the population of Denmark is ...." Silence. Stanley was thinking about what was said. "The population of Denmark. Hmm. Well..." he'd say. "Get the map; let's see where Denmark is." And the whole family went on a search for Denmark. This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts. As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and joining in one another's education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting what we learned, confirming our value, Stanley was surely our most influential teacher. Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting what Stanley knew all along--the value of continual learning. His skills have served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Denmark might prove useful. Question: From the passage, we know that the writer _ . Options: A: knew very well about Denmark B: felt regret about those wasted days C: thought his father's educational skills useful D: only talked about important news with his family
