Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Michael Jackson, the American pop legend, died of a cardiac arrest in a Los Angeles hospital, just weeks before he hoped to resurrect his four-decade long career with a series of sold-out shows in London. The pop superstar was taken to the University of California at Los Angeles medical centre last night, and doctors tried resuscitation (,) in the ambulance. He did not regain consciousness and was reported dead about three hours later. "My brother, the legendary King of Pop, passed away on Thursday 25 June at 2:26pm," his brother Jermaine said, "We believe he suffered a cardiac arrest at his home, however the cause of his death is unknown until the results of the autopsy are known. The personal physician who was with him at the time attempted to resuscitated him." A spokesman for the UCLA medical centre said, "When he arrived at hospital at approximately l:14pm, a team of doctors attempted to resuscitate him for a period of more than one hour, but they were unsuccessful." Police said they were investigating, which is the standard procedure in such cases. Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long decline from his peak in the 1980s when he was music's greatest all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV. His 1982 album Thriller, which included the blockbuster hits Beat It, Billie Jean and Thriller is still the best-selling album of all time, with over 50m copies sold worldwide. The world famous entertainer had planned a series of 50 concerts in London from 12 July. Although in the last two decades his reputation was destroyed by charges of child molestation and his fantastic public behavior, all tickets were sold within hours, proving the King of Pop had enduring appeal. Question: Why were the police involved in investigating the death of Michael Jackson? Options: A: Because they believed he was murdered. B: Because it was standard procedure in such cases. C: Because Michael Jackson died suddenly. D: Because his brother was suspicious of the truth of his death.
Answer: B

Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: In a world as fast-changing and full of information as our own, all of us need to know how to learn well. Yet evidence suggests that most of us don't use the learning techniques that science has proved the most effective. The scientific literature evaluating these techniques goes back to decades and across thousands of articles. It's far too _ and complex for the average parent, teacher or employer to look through. Fortunately, a team of five leading psychologists have done the job for us. Professor John Dunlosky and other psychologists closely examined 10 learning strategies and rated each from high to low utility on the basis of the evidence they've gathered. Here's part of their conclusions: In contrast to familiar practices, the effective learning strategies with the most evidence to support them aren't well known outside the lab. Take distributed practice, for example. This strategy involves spreading out your study time, rather than engaging in one marathon. Cramming information at the last minute may allow you to get through that test or meeting, but the material will quickly disappear from your memory. It's much more effective to look through the material at intervals over time. And the longer you want to remember the information, whether it's two weeks or two years, the longer the intervals should be. The second learning strategy that is highly recommended by Dunlosky is practice testing. Yes, more tests---but there not for a grade. Research shows that the mere act of calling information to mind strengthens that knowledge and aids in future retrieval . While practice testing is not a common strategy---despite the strong evidence supporting it ---there is one familiar approach that captures its benefits: using flash cards. And now flash cards can be presented in digital form. Both distributed practice and practice testing were rated as having "high utility" by Dunlosky. Question: The strategy of distributed practice shows that _ . Options: A: we should not study for long hours every day B: reviewing what we have studied is of little help C: the shorter the interval is, the better we'll study D: doing repetition at intervals is the best way
Answer: D
