Write a multi-choice question for the following article: Article: Has anyone been prepared for the possibility that unexpected poor visibility will stop the pilot from landing? If your pilot is forced to turn back only for his lack of passing a certain test, you will be certainly shocked. This very thing happened to the passengers on Flight BE1431 on Thursday. Just minutes before landing on Charles de Gaulle Airport , Paris, the pilot, a very experienced one, told his passengers, "Unfortunately I'm not qualified to land in Paris for the poor visibility. To do so a level II qualification is required, which I have not gained. We'll have to fly back." Then, you may guess how the passengers felt about their flight back to the starting airport. A spokeswoman said the pilot was really experienced with more than 30 years flying a number of different passenger aircraft types. "But he has recently transferred from flying aBQ300 to aBQ400, so hehas to regain his qualification for landing in such conditions as the thick fog he experienced this time," she said. "The pilot, therefore, quite correctly turned the aircraft back, a decision 100 percent accepted by the aviation officials in the company." One passenger said she had missed an appointment for an interview in prefix = st1 /Paris. "I might have had a nice chance to work inParis," she told the local newspaper. "The whole thing sounds hard to believe. If I had not been on the plane, I would take it as a funny story!" The British Civil Aviation Authority described the incident as one that was "quite unusual but probably not unheard of," because there are different classifications of aircraft with different qualifications for landing in different climatic conditions and when an aircraft is updated, the pilots have to get retrained, even though they have enough skills to do the job successfully. Poor pilot, it's not really his fault...
Ans: Question: Without her own experience, the passenger would consider the incident to be quite _ .Options:A unsafeB normalC unbelievableD acceptableAnswer:C

Write a multi-choice question for the following article: Article: With an overwhelming variety of educational toys and learning tools in the market, you really wonder if these educational products are really beneficial to children. There have been many educational DVDs in the market that promise to stimulate a child's learning and enhance his or her cognitive skills. Parents feel good about buying these products for their children. After all, these educational tools try to do a parent's job of participating in the child's education, especially when the parent can't be present due to his or her busy schedule. Moreover, children seem to love these DVDs that contain pictures, words, and loads of stories. Some DVDs contain fun, sing-along songs or read-aloud words to help the children learn different concepts and words. Although these are fun for the parents and the children, the question that needs to be asked is whether these DVDs are actually beneficial to the child, as they claim to be. Although parents expected "educational" products to give their child some educational advantage, research has shown otherwise. Researchers in a recent study concluded that there was indeed no difference between the language and cognitive ability of the infants who were repeatedly exposed to educational DVDs and those who were not exposed to the DVDs. In fact, contrary to expectations, it was found that babies who were exposed to the DVDs at an earlier age had lower overall language scores at a later age. This suggested a damaging effect of such DVDs on younger children. For several years the American Academy of Pediatrics has recommended that toddlers under age of 24 months or 2 years should not watch videos or television. However, there are many parents who believe these DVDs really help in stimulating the child and keep him or her entertained. While it may work as a great babysitter, it is important to limit activities like video games, computer games, DVDs or TV programs. To promote their children's development and cognitive skills, parents are advised to spend time with their children...
Ans: Question: Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?Options:A Do educational DVDs Really Work?B Are You Prepared for Educational Tools?C Are You Leading Your Child to the Right path?D What Should You Do for Your Child's Education?Answer:A

James isn't Thomas'dad.He is a nanny -a man nanny obviously,humorously termed a"manny"--specially trained and in his third nannying position.At 27,he cares for Thomas,and another boy of a simliar age."It's much freer than an office job,"he says, "and you're getting to see children develop and grow.You become very close to them,for sure.I don't think I'm special or better than a woman nanny; everyone has their own ap- proach.But I'm unusual.Friends laughed when I started studying nursery nursing.In my class,I was the only man among 70 women.Somehow,I made it,"he said. Although it's not yet common to find men in traditional nannying courses,things are changing.In the United States,parents are employing young mannies,sometimes to care for babies,but more often as active role models to get their children away from the TV and the computer.From rollerblading friends to summer swimming mannies,these are the big brothers who are always willing to play,largely because they're paid for it.It is catching on here in Britain,too.Earlier this year,Norland Nanny College welcomed its first full-time man student,19-year-old Peter Cummins in Wales.While some families find it difficult to accept the idea of a young man in a traditional nannying role,man nannies are increasingly popular.

Write a multi-choice question for the following article: Article: Recently,I came across an interesting article on the differences between British English and American English. I had a lot of fun reading it and thinking of as many differences as I could as an American. Their cars have "bonnets ", while ourselves have "hoods". They park their cars in a "car park" while we leave ours in a "parking lot". Our "cookies" are their "biscuits", while their "rubbers" are our "erasers". Then there are the food words. Would you want to eat something called "Toad in the Hole" or "Bangers and Mash" or "Spotted Dick"? I'm here to report they are all very tasty. There are American equivalents ,of course. We've got "Shoofly Pie", "Chicken Fried Steak" and "Mississippi Mud Pie". What they call "crisps" is what we call "potato chips" and when we ask for "chips" in England we will get what we know at home in America as "French fries". They find it _ that we call the "toilet" the "bathroom" and they really double over with laughter when we ask for the "restroom". American ladies in England who ask for the "little girl's room" or the "powder room" will be met with blank stares. A "fag" is a "cigarette" in the UK, which can lead to endless confusion for British visitors looking for a cigarette in America. Americans on the other hand are endlessly confused by English signs put up over doorways saying "Way Out". We Americans walk on the sidewalk not the pavement. "Pavement" in America is the actual cement the sidewalk is made of.
Ans: Question: The examples given at the end of the passage mainly show that _ .Options:A Americans don't like dealing with the BritishB English signs are very hard for people to understandC American English is very different from British English.D Americans and the British may find it hard to understand each otherAnswer:D
