I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Recently, I learned firsthand why it's a bad idea to judge people prematurely . I'm a nursing supervisor, and my job is to evaluate workers' performances at the hospital. Kenny was a new employee. After weeks' probation , I had to admit that he was clean, punctual and efficient. But he had this self-assured and energetic presence. He was a large man, both physically and socially -- he was independent and strong. I worried that our hospital, which demanded teamwork, was not right for such a personality. We had a patient named Mary. At 94 years old, Mary was weak. She had outlived her husband and sisters. Mary had an obsessive belief that someone had taken her purse. She searched for it all the time. Unless tied to her wheelchair, she would go through the door onto the street mindlessly searching and never giving up. She was often sitting in her wheelchair in the hallway, where she stopped everyone who came near. "Can you lend me a comb?" she would ask. "I've lost mine. It was in my red purse. Where is my purse?" Every day it was the same. We all knew Mary didn't have a purse, but we would answer: "Sure, if I see your purse I'll bring it back." One afternoon, I saw Kenny walking down the hall with a grocery bag. He walked toward Mary in her wheelchair. He pulled out a red purse. Mary's old hands flew up to her face in a gesture of wonder and joy, and then flew out hungrily like a starved child taking bread. Mary grabbed the red purse. She held it for a moment, and then pressed it to her breast, rocking it like a baby. Kenny leaned over, unzipped the purse open and showed Mary a comb inside. Tears of joy poured down Mary's face. Instead of paying lip service like the rest of us, Kenny had made Mary's problem his problem. I had been wrong about Kenny. Question: What kind of message does the author intend to convey?

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Buckminster Fuller once said, "The minute you choose to do what you really want to do, it's a different kind of life." If you want to live abundantly, decide what you really want and figure out a way to do it. Be clear and live with intent . You may have heard of Fred Lebow. He complained to his doctor that he lacked energy. His doctor advised him to take up running. He fell in love with it! He was 39 years old when he entered his first race. Fred joined the New York Road Runners Club and organized New York City's first marathon race. But what Fred truly wanted to do was to bring people together. He believes that anybody should be able to run -- people of all ages and of any country. Not everyone in New York was excited about people running through their neighborhood. A youth gang warned him that nobody had better run through their turf. "That's great," Fred said. "I need someone to protect the runners in your area, and you look like just the fellows to do it." He gave them each a hat, shirt and jacket and that year, when the marathon went through their neighborhood, these young men proudly guarded the runners along their way. Fred decided what was truly important to him and he found a way to do it. He lived with intent. That single decision made his life remarkably different. As one sports writer said, "Fate handed him a short race. With his goal, with his love of life, Fred turned it into a marathon." Fred would say that it's not about how long you live, but how you run the race of life. Question: The purpose that Fred Lebow organized New York City's first marathon race was _ . Options: A: to be popular with people B: to display his true love for sports development C: to drive away his loneliness in the running D: to get more people together
