Question: Read the following article and answer the question. Article: A study of a million UK women, published today in The Lancet, has shown that happiness itself has no direct effect on mortality, and that the widespread but mistaken belief that unhappiness and stress directly cause ill health came from studies that had simply confused cause and effect. Life-threatening poor health can cause unhappiness, and for this reason unhappiness is associated with increased mortality. In addition, smokers tend to be unhappier than non-smokers. However, after taking account of previous ill health, smoking, and other lifestyle and socio-economic factors, the investigators found that unhappiness itself was no longer associated with increased mortality. The lead author, Dr Bette Liu, now at the University of New South Wales, Australia said: "Illness makes you unhappy, but unhappiness itself doesn't make you ill. We found no direct effect of unhappiness or stress on mortality, even in a ten-year study of a million women." As in other studies, unhappiness was associated with deprivation, smoking, lack of exercise, and not living with a partner. The strongest associations, however, were that the women who were already in poor health tended to say that they were unhappy, stressed, not in control, and not relaxed. The main analyses included 700 000 women, average age 59 years, and over the next 10 years these women were followed by electronic record linkage for mortality, during which time 30 000 of the women died. After allowing for any differences already present in health and lifestyle, the overall death rate among those who were unhappy was the same as the death rate among those who were generally happy. The study is so large that it rules out unhappiness being a direct cause of any material increase in overall mortality in women. This was true for overall mortality, for cancer mortality, and for heart disease mortality, and it was true for stress as well as for unhappiness. Question: It's wrongly believed that _ . Answer:
OPTIONS:
- unhappiness itself is not associated with increased mortality
- there is no direct link between unhappiness and mortality
- ill health directly causes unhappiness and stress
- ill health directly results from unhappiness and stress
Answer: ill health directly results from unhappiness and stress

"I can think of nobody who is more qualified than Gary Locke." President Obama said. Locke's new position is clearly a sign that US President is trying to improve relations with China. When he made his first speech to the Chinese press in Beijing, Locke said, " I think, being a Chinese-American, I have a greater understanding of the US government." Before becoming ambassador to China, Locke was US secretary of commerce . This means he has plenty of trade experience, which will be useful in building economic links between the two countries. Locke's grandfather went to the United States over a century ago to work as a houseboy for a family in Washington State in exchange for English lessons. His father moved to US as a teenager. "I'm going back to the birthplace of my grandfather, my father and my mom, and I'll be doing so as a devoted diplomat for America, the country where I was born and raised," Locke said. ,A.B.C.D .

Q: Read the following article and answer the question. Article: So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children what only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible." Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity. It can be seen and observed. Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny. If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children." When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teachers and learners fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading Question: The teaching of reading will be successful if _ . Answer:

OPTIONS:
- teachers can improve conditions at school for the students
- teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading
- teachers can devise the most efficient system for reading
- teachers can make their teaching activities observable

A: teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading

Q: Read the following article and answer the question. Article: Chinese writer Mo Yan's Noble Prize for Literature on Thunday might set off an explosion of global interest in Chinese literature and lead to more titles being translated into English. Chinese literature has alyeady attracted international attention, but experts say translation remains a barrier. "Many very good Chinese writers have been accepted globally for a long time already."says Michel Hockx, professor of University of London. " It's mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries, to publish their work outside China and to interact with readerships abroad. At the same time, more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in Chinese language and Chinese culture." Hockx adds: "We need more good translators, especially foreign translators, who know good Chinese and can translate the work into their own languages in a way that foreign readers will appreciate and understand." London's independent literary agent Toby Eady, who represents many Chinese writers, including Yu Dan, met Mo about 15 years ago in China. But Eady says:"I still think Mo Yan's writing--and, to an extent, all Chinese writing--are not truly understood by Western readers because a part of Chinese literature is lost in translation. The translator has done a good job in translating Mo's work, but the variety of Chinese vocabulary doesn't well translate into English." University of Oxford lecturer in medern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says:"The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself. People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit between China and its international counterparts --in particular, China knows incomparably more about Europe and America than the other way around--and reading Chinese literature is an effective means of narrowing that gap." Question: One of the reasons why Chinese literature has been accepted globally is that _ . Answer:

OPTIONS:
- more Chinese writers can express themselves in English freely
- Chinese visitors are enjoying more chances to go abroad
- the westerners have become more interested in Chinese literature
- more western readers can interact with each other

A:
the westerners have become more interested in Chinese literature
