Read the following article and answer the question. Article: When Emily Beardmore first heard that a trip was being planned by the biology class at Windsor High School, she thought about how much fun it would be. "I thought it would be a really good experience to go with other friends and teachers to another country in an environment other than a vacation environment," the 17-year-old girl said. A few months later, Emily got her chance when she and 14 of her classmates, along with biology teacher Tamara Pennington went to Costa Rica for eight days in late May. "It was not just a tour," said Pennington, who organized the trip. "You can go any place in the world on just a tour. This one was really working with the sea turtles and practicing conservation . It just seemed like the perfect science field trip for kids who think they want to get into science to see what it's really like to be out in the field and enjoy themselves." Emily said her time on the turtle program, which was the focus of the trip, was "crazy." "We were walking on the beach at night and you can't see anything--just see a big black dot." She said with a laugh. "I was not expecting the turtles to be that big." The turtles are leatherback turtles, which are becoming extinct because their eggs are used as food. "When they would move their legs while laying their eggs they were really hard to control because they were a lot more powerful than you would imagine," Emily said. Once the eggs were collected, the students took them back to a hatchery and dug holes to copy the hole the mother turtle had made and then buried the eggs for the 60 days needed to hatch. "The experience was so cool," Emily said. "You go to another country to see what their culture is like and learn what their everyday lives are like. It made me really want to help out my mom a lot more than I do, and value what I have." Question: What did Pennington consider the trip to be? Answer:
OPTIONS:
- It was a common tour to a foreign country.
- It was a journey to practice what students learned.
- It was to attract students' interest in science.
- It was a trip to do practical science activities.

Answer: It was a trip to do practical science activities.

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Too much TV-watching can harm children's ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children. One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs. A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year -olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don't prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters may watch lots of TV. Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school. In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest. While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms Question: What would be the best title for this text? Answer:
OPTIONS:
- Computers or Television
- Effects of Television on Children
- Studies on TV and College Education
- Television and Children's Learning Habits

Answer: Effects of Television on Children

Read the following article and answer the question. Article: When going through major life changes, like changing careers, I would change the people with whom I spent the most time. We've all gone through periods when the people in our lives have changed--graduation, moving to a new city, getting a new job, joining a new club, etc. I don't think I need to convince you just how much influence other people can have over your identity. If you've ever experienced a major switch in your people environment, then you know that you change as well. Most people don't make these choices consciously, though. You might consciously decide to spend more time with a certain friend, or you may ask someone out on a date to begin a new relationship. But few people choose their existing friendships deliberately. _ . People are always dropping into and out of each other's lives. Associations grow into friendships, and friendships fade into associations. You don't get rid of anyone. The truth is that in order to make room for new people and new experiences, you may need to loosen up some of your existing connections. What about loyalty? Shouldn't you always be loyal to your friends? Once you have a close friend, even if his influence on you is slightly harmful, shouldn't you stick by him? Loyalty to a friend sometimes means having to let go. It means being loyal to his highest and best self as well. If someone is destroying his health by smoking, for example, you aren't showing loyalty by smoking right along with him. True loyalty sometimes requires that you break damaging connections, get yourself back on solid ground, and then decide what you can really do to help your friend. It can take a lot of courage to tell someone, "I'm sorry, but I can't have you in my life anymore." But even though this might seem like a selfish act at times, it's often the best thing for the other person, too. If a relationship is holding you back in some way, understand that it's also hurting the other person. For example, if you work for a violent boss, your acceptance of that situation is considered to be... Question: How should we behave when employed by a violent boss? Answer:
