In an unusual competition, the Government will ask people to find out the greatest challenge today, such as finding a replacement for oil, producing low cost food or curing AIDS/HIV. When the toughest problem has been decided, the Prime Minister will give away PS1,000,000 to the person who successfully works out the answer. The competition follows the example of the Longitude Prize started by the government in 1714, which offered PS20,000 (worth PS6,000,000 today) to anyone who could discover how far east or west ships had sailed. Sailors could work out their location north and south, and were able to decide their local time from the sun. However, they needed to know the time at a reference point in order to find out how far they had travelled east or west. Many people thought the problem was impossible to solve, but the prize was finally won by John Harrison, an ordinary worker. He did this by designing a clock that kept accurate time at sea and made it possible for sailors to work out their location. Almost exactly 300 years on, Mr Cameron will have a group of scientists collect suggestions and draw up a short list of problems facing the world. He will then start a race to solve the most difficult problem. A government officer said, \"We want people to think big: what does the world need and how can we achieve that? We are looking for the next penicillin , airplane or World Wide Web. Something that is going to really change what we do and how we live our lives--sending us ahead in the global race. \"According to Mr Cameron, it is important to \"encourage new ideas\" and \"attract back the best and the brightest\" to Britain.\n\n<question>:\nThe British government promises PS1,000,000 to any person who .\n\n<options>:\nA can solve the biggest challenge facing the world\nB can find how the next penicillin works on illnesses\nC can think of the most difficult problem in the world\nD can help the Prime Minister run his government better\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>:\nWhat do you do in a situation like this? You're calling dinner with friends at a nice restaurant. You're having a great time when a phone rings at the table next to you. A man takes out his phone and starts talking loudly about problems he's having with his girlfriend. He talks for almost ten minutes! This happens all the time-on buses, in restaurants, everywhere!\nMany people find cell phones useful in their daily lives. But we've all sat next to someone talking too loudly on a cell phone. You may want to tell the loudmouth to end the conversation, but let the management take care of those noisy customers. You can only control your own behavior. Here are a few rules:\nOff means off! Follow the rules of restaurants and other public places . If a sign says \"turn off cell phones\", don't use your phone. If you are allowed, speak softly and for a short time and try to move away form other people.\nLights off, phone off! Never make calls in a theater or at the movies.\nPay attention! Talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. And watch where you're going when you're walking down the streets and talking on the phone.\nAs more people use cell phones, things are only going to get worse. So, the next time you're getting ready to make a call, stop and consider the people around you.\n\n<question>:\nFrom the passage we can infer that _ .\n\n<options>:\nA cell phones have become the most useful tool in our life\nB public manners play an important role in our life\nC cell phones lead to people's bad relationship\nD people ought to turn cell phones off in a public places\n\n<answer>:\n",

Let's have a flying compitition. I'll show you what real flying is ! \"\nOne of the swans , a strong young male , took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.\nNow it was the swan's turn. He flew up , and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him , making all kinds of comments about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn't see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments.

Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers,be careful about playing sports outside.\nFirstly,to play sports safely in hot weather,you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes,but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate you more. However,drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.\nSecondly,be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest. If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat,don't wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks.\nThirdly,when you have a break,don't sit in the sun. With the sun beating down on you,you'll only heat up and sweat more. Take a seat under a tree,or even better,go indoors for a little while. Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.\nFourthly,remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise,the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up,you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning. Also,the earlier you practise,the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time,come back to the field later in the evening,when the sun is setting.\nLast but not least,you should watch what you eat.

Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers,be careful about playing sports outside.\nFirstly,to play sports safely in hot weather,you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes,but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate you more. However,drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.\nSecondly,be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest. If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat,don't wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks.\nThirdly,when you have a break,don't sit in the sun. With the sun beating down on you,you'll only heat up and sweat more. Take a seat under a tree,or even better,go indoors for a little while. Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.\nFourthly,remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise,the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up,you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning. Also,the earlier you practise,the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time,come back to the field later in the evening,when the sun is setting.\nLast but not least,you should watch what you eat. Eat food which is high in water,starch and carbonhydrate ,but be sure to get a good balance in your diet.\nAs long as you pay attention to the above,playing sports safely in the heat isn't a difficult thing.\n\n<question>:\nThe passage mainly tells us about _ .\n\n<options>:\nA eating habits in hot summers\nB drinking more water in the heat\nC sports safely in hot weather\nD taking exercise in different periods\n\n<answer>:\n",

We pick up our mobile phones and call for help. That's easy, right? But in an emergency, many people are unable to call for help. Floods and earthquakes come suddenly. Wars can hurt or kill. Successful communication can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.\nMeet French NGO Telecoms Sans Frontiers (Telecommunications Without Borders ). Its goal is to use mobile communication technology to help people in need. TSF began in 1998. First, they opened their main base in France. Then in 2003, they started another base in Nicaragua. The next year they opened their Thailand base. Now if a disaster hits anywhere in the world, TSF is ready. They can send workers to a disaster area to set up communication systems within 24 hours.\nOnce TSF arrives at a disaster area, they set up telephone connections and Internet service. They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers do their jobs better.\nTSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated . Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive. Then the families can decide on a safe course of action for their family members.\nSince 1998, TSF has helped thousands of people in many countries. Most of the TSF workers does not get paid with money, but the satisfaction of helping others and changing lives is often a great reward.\n\n<question>:\nTelecoms Sans Frontiers is _ .\n\n<options>:\nA a mobile phone company from France\nB a charity group from France\nC a mobile phone company from Thailand\nD a charity group from Thailand\n\n<answer>:\n",
