I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: More than 50 music students of New Milford High School in New Jersey, US, got a letter from their headmaster. The letter said that the music department of the school was in big trouble. The students had to pass a test, or the department would be closed. The test came on Saturday. The nervous students were required to play a piece of music created by Richard Strauss. And they had to sing the words to the music -- German words! There were also other difficult tasks. One student had to sing Mary Had A Little Lamb, a children's song, in an operatic voice. After three hours of testing, the students all waited for the results. They met some students from the New Jersey Youth Orchestra while waiting. They had the same test and only got a passing grade. The worried New Milford High School students started to realize they had no chance. "I thought it was over," said Bryan Olsen-Santana. "The girl next to me was crying. I felt bad for her. I felt bad for myself, too, because music is everything to me." But then the headmaster came and told them something very dramatic , "Someone has played a joke on you!" What was going on? The test was part of a new reality TV show called "Schooled". The students' parents, the school and a TV network had made it together. Everything was _ . The "students from New Jersey Youth Orchestra" were students from another school. There were hidden cameras. The students' parents were hiding as they watched. As a reward for putting up with the joke, the students got gifts: MP3 players, digital cameras and school supplies . They were all from the show's sponsor . Question: At the beginning of the story, the music students got a letter which said. Options: A: the headmaster would be in big trouble B: the school had a problem with money C: the students had to pass a test to save the music department D: the students had to give up music

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: There are different ways to store fish. One way to keep fish for future use is canning it. We'll have this article describing, step by step, how to prepare dried fish. Begin with fish that are out of the water. If the fish are small, leave their heads on. Cut off the heads if the fish are longer than twenty centimeters or weigh more than one hundred fifteen grams. Now clean the freshly caught fish. Cut off the scales and cut open the stomach. Remove everything inside. Then wash the fish in clean water and fill salt into them. Next, put the fish in a container with a solution of three hundred grams of salt and one liter of water. This will remove the blood from the meat. Keep the fish in the saltwater for about thirty minutes. After that , wash them again in clean water. Next, put the fish in a solution that has more salt in the water. The water should be salty enough so that the fish can float to the top. If the fish sink to the bottom of the container, add more salt to the water. Cover the container with a clean piece of wood. Place a heavy stone on the wood to hold it down. Leave the fish there for about six hours. After that, remove them from the saltwater and place them on a clean surface. Cover the fish with a clean piece of white cloth and let them dry. ,.
