"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n<passage>:\nEvery morning, the newspaper chief editor holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events.\nAs soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper's own library to look up any information that they need. This is called \"doing one's homework\".\nAt the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used for the next day's paper. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.\nThe chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. Sometimes this will have to be changed if something more important happens late in the day. Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.\nFinally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered by truck, plane or rail. Speed is important. People want to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterday's.\n\n<question>:\nThe best title for this passage is \" _ \".\n\n<options>:\nA How a newspaper is produced\nB How newspapers are delivered\nC What kind of papers readers like\nD Whose work is more important\n\n<answer>:\n",

"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n<passage>:\nWe often consider plants as the furniture of the natural world. They don't move; they don't make sounds;they don't seem to act on anything. But as is often the case, plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is a chemical .\nOver the years, scientists have reported that different types of plants, from trees to tomatoes, give out chemicals into the air to help neighbouring plants. These chemical warnings can spread information about one plant's disease or infestation ,so other plants can protect themselves. But how plants receive and act on the information exactly is still mysterious .\nIn this week's Science Magazine, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They have found out one chemical message and traced it all the way from beginning to end.\nThe scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest . To start out,they grew plants in two separate plastic spaces connected by a tube . One plant was infested and placed upwind and the other was uninfested and placed downwind. The downwind plants were later exposed to the pest. The results showed that plants near sick neighbours before were able to protect themselves better against the pest.\nThey found one chemical appeared more often in the exposed plants. The chemical is called HexVic. The scientists discovered where HexVic came from, and put it over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to produce HexVic. Researchers made sure that uninfested plants could fight off bugs and diseases. How do they know when to protect themselves? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbours.\nIt is not a simple story , and it may be happening in many other plants besides tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. In a word, we know that plants not only communicate, but also look out for one another.\n\n<question>:\nWhich of the following can be the best title of this passage?\n\n<options>:\nA Communicating Plants and Terrible Diseases\nB Talking Plants and Friendly Warnings\nC Protecting Plants and Clear Information\nD Growing Plants and Mysterious Chemicals\n\n<answer>:\n",

The villages remain unaffected by tourism.\nTuscany\nAnother Italian region, Tuscany is simply attractive. The buildings there are amazing, and the culture is special.

I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day, my classmates shouted, \"Your mom only has one eye! '' and they _ me. My face turned red.\nI wished that my mom would just disappear from this world, so I said to her, \"Mom, why don't you have the other eye? You make me a laughingstock.\" She didn't say anything. Maybe it was because my mom hadn' t punished me, so I didn' t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly. I decided to study hard so that I could leave her for the rest of my life. I made it at last. Now I'm living happily as a successful man in another country.\nMany years later, I received a letter, which said, \"I think my life has been long enough now, but would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to visit me once in a while? I' m sorry that I am an embarrassment for you. You see, when you were very young, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye, so I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. I was never angry with you for anything you did. I miss the time when you were still young around me. You mean the world to me.

I hated her, as she was such an embarrassment for me. She ran a small shop at a market, selling anything for the money we needed.\nOne day, my mom came to my school. I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day, my classmates shouted, \"Your mom only has one eye! '' and they _ me. My face turned red.\nI wished that my mom would just disappear from this world, so I said to her, \"Mom, why don't you have the other eye? You make me a laughingstock.\" She didn't say anything. Maybe it was because my mom hadn' t punished me, so I didn' t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly. I decided to study hard so that I could leave her for the rest of my life. I made it at last. Now I'm living happily as a successful man in another country.\nMany years later, I received a letter, which said, \"I think my life has been long enough now, but would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to visit me once in a while? I' m sorry that I am an embarrassment for you. You see, when you were very young, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye, so I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. I was never angry with you for anything you did. I miss the time when you were still young around me. You mean the world to me. I love you.\" I can't help crying with the letter in my hand.\n\n<question>:\nWhy did I want to leave my mother?\n\n<options>:\nA Because she was an embarrassment for me.\nB Because she came to my school.\nC Because all of my classmates were afraid of her.\nD Because she was too poor.\n\n<answer>:\n",
