Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: It looks like a scene from the thriller movieJaws,but these photos of a huge shark swimming with swimmers were in fact taken in Britain. The amazing pictures,which showed that the basking shark was swimming friendly with swimmers,were taken at Porthcurno beach,Cornwall,where the basking shark was swimming just yards off shore. The single 14foot giant was feeding in the shallow waters off the scenic area,and quickly became curious about the swimmers and surfers sharing the water. Though it came within touching distance,the swimmers and surfers were in no danger. The large sharks are plankton feeders-unlike the man-eating Great White fromJaws. Beach-goer Rachel Hosken,who took the pictures,said that several basking sharks had been seen in the area."It is one of the few I have ever seen around this year and it was great to see," she said excitedly."There are usually more of them by now,but for some reason there are fewer around than normal at this time of year. I think more have been spotted in deeper waters,but the particular one in the pictures seems to have taken a liking to this spot. I have seen it a few times." Known as the gentle giant of the sea,the basking shark is the second largest fish in the sea,only weighing lighter than the whale shark. They can grow to over 36 feet (11 meters) and weigh up to seven tons (7,000 kilograms) and feed on a diet of plankton and small fish. Basking sharks normally begin to appear in May and June. Question: Why didn't the basking shark attack the swimmers or surfers? Options: A: Because it was not hungry. B: Because it was too far from them. C: Because it isn't a man-eating shark. D: Because it enjoyed swimming with them.
Answer: C

Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: LONDON----"Everyone else has one!" Lucy declared to her parents, trying to get a mobile phone as a gift for her 14th birthday. Her parents gave in. Curious to know her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent owners fumble in their bags. Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen ----it is as likely to be found in school bags. The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today's teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16-year-olds now have access to a mobile phone. The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to _ on the second line. The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favour the text messaging services because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out. For example, "cul"means "see you later"; "lol" means "laugh out loud"; and 2nite is the abbreviation of "tonight". All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet. Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phone. Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable to mobile radiation. Question: Interviews discover children like to send messages instead of _ . Options: A: calling each other B: writing to each other C: playing games online D: greeting each other
Answer:
B
