I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Five years ago, I met her in a shopping center. I was walking through the shop when I saw her. Then she came back to my house with me. After that, we became friends. Once she had to go into hospital to have an operation on her leg. I was worried about her and looked after her every day. I made breakfast for her. I was not good at cooking, but she never complained. I also helped her take showers. I have no idea why we can be good friends, because she is quite different from me. I like writing, reading and playing computer games. But she loves outdoor activities. She likes playing balls best. She also loves sleeping. She will run all around the house to lick my face if someone shouts "Kiss for Dad." That is the only name she knows me by--Dad, though I call her by many names--Pickle, Missile and Little. But her real name is Pixar. This week she turns seven years old. Question: What can we learn from the passage? Options: A: Pixar once had an operation on her head. B: Pixar doesn't like playing outside. C: Pixar is the writer's dog. D: Pixar calls the writer "Dad" every day.

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: One midnight, a little girl woke up to pass water. She by herself got up and down her bed, walked to the bedroom door and opened it. She looked outside and walked back, for it was so dark in the hall that she feared. Her mother said, "Don't be afraid, honey. Take courage!" "What's courage?" she asked, running to her mother's bed. "Courage is the brave breath," her mother answered. "Mum, do you have courage?" "Certainly." The girl held out her little hands, saying, "Mum, blow some of your breath of courage to me." After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands, the little girl clenched her fists nervously, afraid that the "breath of courage" would run away. Then with her fists clenched, she walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear. Her mother said to herself, "It will be nice if someone can blow some kind of 'breath' to me. Then I can hold it in my hands too when I feel terrified or lost." In fact, mostly, what we are terrified of is nothing but the fear in our mind. Who we should defeat is nobody but ourselves. Question: To stop "mother's breath" from running away, the girl _ . Options: A: held out her little hands B: clenched her fists C: talk to her mother D: held her own breath

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear formal clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing. Many British people don't think about clothes very much. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres , cinemas and concerts you can put on anything you like: from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy. But in Britain, as well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women have to wear tidy dresses. In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women have to wear pretty clothes. It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You'll feel good if you don't look too different from everyone else. Question: The best title for this passage would be _ . Options: A: What British and American people wear nowadays B: Office manners in Britain and the US C: Differences between British and American business men D: No trousers for office ladies

So many people like going to some countries in Southeast Asia because the weather there is pleasant. Now more Chinese can go traveling. But some of them don't have a sense of public manners.
