Once i have my toothbrush in hand i then take the cap off of the toothpaste . I set the cap to the side because i am going to run some water over my toothbrush first before i put any paste on it . i turn on the warm water and let it run over the brush for a few seconds just to get it wet . i make sure i turn off the water and then i take the tube of toothpaste and i squeeze it gently and slowly because i do not want to put too much toothpaste on the brush , so i am very careful . Once that is done , i raise the brush up to my mouth , put it inside my mouth and touch it against my top two front teeth . I like to start at the top teeth first so i begin moving the brush back and forth many times .

I brush back and forth but i also start to brush in the back of my mouth also . I make sure that i get the back teeth and the sides real good . I even run the brush over my tongue too . The last thing that i do is fill a small dixie cup with water so that i can rinse off my mouth full of toothpaste . I take that dixie cup of water and drink from it BUT and this is very important , i make certain not to swallow the water . I just swish it around inside of my mouth and gargle with it . i always fill the dixie cup up a second time and gargle again just to make sure i get all the toothpaste out of my mouth . When the water runs clear from me gargling that is how i know that i am done brushing my teeth . Question: what were they done with? Option1: Toothbrush Option2: routine A:

It can be a lot of fun to sit around a bonfire , especially with friends . I think of what we will need to make one . We will have to have things to burn . A bonfire is big , so we will need a lot of wood . It 's hard to light big pieces of wood on fire , so we will need smaller pieces . The smaller pieces of wood are easy to light on fire , but bigger pieces burn longer . So , we will need both big and small pieces of wood . The small pieces are under the big pieces , so the fire starts easier . We light the small pieces on fire , which catches the big pieces on fire after a while . My friends and I watch the fire burn while staying far enough away from it to be safe . Question: When did they and their friends stack the pieces of wood on top of each other? Option1: after starting the fire Option2: before starting the fire [EX A]: before starting the fire [EX Q]: Passage: I needed to purchase some supplies for an upcoming trip as well as some pet supplies so rather than wanting to drive to several stores I opted to shop online . I found items that I thought would be perfect so I read reviews of people who had bought them before to see if they were good products or not . After I decided on several things I wanted and added them to my cart , I realized if I added a couple dollars more I would get free shipping so I added some treats for my dogs . I searched google to see if there were any coupon codes for this store and found one that said it would work . I entered my shipping address and credit card information and double checked everything in my cart to make sure it was the items and sizes I wanted . When I was sure everything was correct I placed the order . Question: When did they get an additional 10% discount? Option1: Before entering codes Option2: while buying the items [EX A]: while buying the items [EX Q]: Passage: The doorbell rang . I was not expecting anyone to visit today . It was unusual for the doorbell to ring in the morning because most of my friends and family were at work . Maybe it was someone selling something . I got up from my place at the table where I was working on my book . I am a writer and I work from home . I was cautious as I approached the door . I wanted to see who was ringing the bell before I opened the door . It pays to be cautious these days . If it is someone I do n't know , a stranger , I will answer the door with the chain still hooked and ask what they need . I answered the door and signed for the package .

First , I get the eggs out and begin cracking them on the side of the bowl and dumping them into the bowl . I normally use two eggs whites and one whole egg to cut the calories . I add some salt and pepper to the mix for flavor . I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan . I make sure that I add some vegetable oil to the pan before I add the eggs though because I do n't want them to stick . As this occurs , I add some cheese or vegetable to the center of the egg mixture . Really , almost any type of cheese or vegetable makes a good omelette . I then flip one side of the omelette over on to itself to seal in the contents in the middle . It is then ready to serve ! Question: Where is the omelette being browned? Option1: In the pan Option2: On the street Solution: In the pan Explanation: As mentioned in the passage that I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan; it is clear that omelette is being browned in pan only.

While the skillet was heating up , I cracked two eggs , and the and the contents of the shell into an empty bowl and discarding the white cells . I beat the eggs until the yoke and egg white had combines , then added a few splashes of milk and continued beating . Once I was satisfied with the consistency of the egg of the omelette , then I prepared the contents that will go inside . I already had a bacon that have been cooked previously , so I crushed the bacon with my hands in order to make crumbles . I cut a few slivers of onion off , and chop them into fine pieces . Now that I have all of my ingredients prepared , I pour the egg into the preheated skillet and let the egg cover the bottom surface of the skillet . Once I felt the ad was halfway cooked , I use a spatula to lift and flip the egg over to the other side . Immediately after flipping the egg , I placed my crumbled bacon , diced onion , and shredded cheddar cheese on one side of the circular cooking egg . I then use my spatula to close the omelette , flipping the uncovered side of the egg on top of the bacon , cheese and onion that was situated on the other side of the egg . Once the egg was properly closed , I then use a spatula to turn the omelette over so that it may continue cooking on the other side , and turning off the heat . After about 40 seconds of cooking , I then use a spatula to remove the omelette from the skillet , and place it on the plate so I can begin eating . Question: When did they grab a bag of cheddar cheese and an onion from the fridge? Option1: While crumbling the bacon Option2: When they took the other ingredients out. Solution:

I jumped out of bed and ran to the kitchen . I knew that I was going to need something that would fill my empty stomach up , so I decided to make an omelette . Then I opened the cabinet to get a bowl to mix my eggs in . I scrambled the eggs up with a fork , and then got a pan to put on the stove to cook the eggs in . After I turned on the stove , I put some a little bit of oil in the pan so the eggs would n't stick . Then I poured the eggs from the bowl into the pan and waited for the eggs to start to firm up . I poked at them with a spatula , pushing parts from the edge of the pan that were kinda firm slowly towards the middle of the pan . The uncooked runny eggs slide over to where the firm eggs were and cook up really quick ! When there was no more runny eggs left , I turned off the stove and spread my mixed veggies on one side of the omelette . Then I used my spatula to fold the omelette in half so that the mixed veggies were in between the sides of the omelette , kind of like a sandwich . My stomach roared like a lion when I looked down at the omelette . I think it took me less than a minute to eat the whole thing ! Question: When did they open the fridge?

Question: Other than the receipt, what was printed out? Option1: airline tickets Option2: prices A: airline tickets **** Q: Passage: Every Tuesday , we like to go to our local supermarket to buy our weekly groceries . There are usually special sales because products put out for the previous weekend , that had not been sold , are discounted to sell the excess stuff . Also , we go through the coupons in the Sunday paper to find extra savings . We always take our cloth grocery bags so we do n't have to use the plastic ones that are so bad for the environment . Arriving at the store , we get a cart and enter the doors that lead into the produce section . We always start there , picking out fresh fruits and vegetables for our meals and snacks . We then go up and down the aisles , concentrating on our list and coupons , checking things off as we put them in our cart . The last things we get are the cold and frozen items , so they wo n't get warm while we shop . Once we have all of our choices , we go to the check-out , place them on the conveyor belt , give the cashier our coupons , bag our groceries and put them in the cart . This is always a family project and everyone helps in the process . Question: When do they take things to their car? Option1: after paying for items Option2: before they are finished paying for them A: after paying for items **** Q: Passage: I bought a really beautiful painting for my new flat .

First , though , we had to look up what sights there were to be seen . So we went online and typed in a search into Google . A lot of things turned up in our search , like the Tower of London and the Sherlock Holmes Museum . We wrote everything down in a notepad and wrote memos in our phones , listing all the places we wanted to go , where in London they were located , and what hours they would be open . Once we had our list , we put on our coats , grabbed our purses and wallets , and walked out the door . In London , it 's easier to take the train than to drive , so we walked to the nearest underground train station . We selected the closest place to visit , then picked the proper train to take us there , and when that train arrived , we hopped on , paying with our monthly train pass-cards . The train ride did n't take very long , and soon it was letting us off at the station right next to the Tower of London . We went up to the lobby of the Tower and paid for a tour at the information desk , and we were on our way . Everywhere else we wanted to go , like the Globe Theatre and Canterbury Cathedral and Museum , was within walking distance , so we just walked through the London streets looking at all the statues and buildings . When we reached each of our specific destinations , we would talk to the people in the lobby at the information desk , pay for a tour , and just soak up the experience . When we 'd crossed off every place on our list , it was time to take the train back home again . Question: What had been a wonderful day? Option1: the tour of london Option2: Riding the train.

I looked in my fridge and found a bag of lettuce , as well as some tomatoes , carrots , red onions , and salad dressing . I wanted to make enough for more than one meal . After making sure all the food was still fresh by checking for any places where the food was too mushy or the wrong color , I found a plastic bowl with a lid in the cupboard that was big enough for about three meals . Then , I washed off all the vegetables and set them in the bowl for the moment . I cut up the tomatoes and the onions , and sliced the carrots into little slivers , making little piles of each vegetable in different parts of the board . After that , I dumped the lettuce into the bowl , then carefully slid the vegetables into the bowl , making sure not to get any on the counter or the floor . Finally , I poured in a few teaspoons of salad dressing , closed the lid on the bowl , shook it up to make sure the salad dressing spread out , and opened up the bowl again .

I placed the bucket on the floor , dipped the mop in to get it soaking wet , lifted it out of the water and kept it over the bucket , pulled down on the handle to wring out the extra water . I started mopping the floor , rinsing the mop in the bucket every few minutes until I had reached the doorway .

First , though , we had to look up what sights there were to be seen . So we went online and typed in a search into Google . A lot of things turned up in our search , like the Tower of London and the Sherlock Holmes Museum . We wrote everything down in a notepad and wrote memos in our phones , listing all the places we wanted to go , where in London they were located , and what hours they would be open . Once we had our list , we put on our coats , grabbed our purses and wallets , and walked out the door . In London , it 's easier to take the train than to drive , so we walked to the nearest underground train station . We selected the closest place to visit , then picked the proper train to take us there , and when that train arrived , we hopped on , paying with our monthly train pass-cards . The train ride did n't take very long , and soon it was letting us off at the station right next to the Tower of London . We went up to the lobby of the Tower and paid for a tour at the information desk , and we were on our way . Everywhere else we wanted to go , like the Globe Theatre and Canterbury Cathedral and Museum , was within walking distance , so we just walked through the London streets looking at all the statues and buildings . When we reached each of our specific destinations , we would talk to the people in the lobby at the information desk , pay for a tour , and just soak up the experience . When we 'd crossed off every place on our list , it was time to take the train back home again . Question: What had been a wonderful day? Option1: the tour of london Option2: Riding the train. [A]:

You are given a paragraph (Passage), a question (Question) and two answer options (Option1 and Option2). Your task is to choose the correct answer to the question based on the passage. Answer of the question cannot be found directly from the passage, it is indirectly indicated in the passage. Do not answer with words other than the two options, and do not answer with option titles(e.g. "option1" or "1" are not acceptable answers.) Let me give you an example: Passage: Omelettes make a great breakfast , and I enjoy making them because they are very easy to cook . First , I get the eggs out and begin cracking them on the side of the bowl and dumping them into the bowl . I normally use two eggs whites and one whole egg to cut the calories . I add some salt and pepper to the mix for flavor . I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan . I make sure that I add some vegetable oil to the pan before I add the eggs though because I do n't want them to stick . As this occurs , I add some cheese or vegetable to the center of the egg mixture . Really , almost any type of cheese or vegetable makes a good omelette . I then flip one side of the omelette over on to itself to seal in the contents in the middle . It is then ready to serve ! Question: Where is the omelette being browned? Option1: In the pan Option2: On the street The answer to this example can be: In the pan Here is why: As mentioned in the passage that I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan; it is clear that omelette is being browned in pan only. Also, there is nothing related to street mention in the passage. OK. solve this: Passage: I recently got a flat bicycle tire while riding home from work . As soon as I got home , I removed the tire from the bike and checked for the cause . Sure enough , there was a small puncture , I must have run over something sharp while commuting home . I then went to the local bike shop and the man at the shop recommended that I buy a patch kit , since doing so is much cheaper than replacing the entire tube . First I added glue to the area and then put the patch on top . After holding the patch in place for a few minutes , I added a little talc . I also added a little talc to the inside of the tire . Question: The wheel was put back where? Option1: the trash Option2: On the bike. Answer:
On the bike.

Q: Passage: I was getting pretty hungry , but there was n't much in the house , except some frozen chicken , and a few carrots and potatoes , and some spices . Since I did n't have any money on me , I decided I would make some chicken soup . I took out a pot , poured some water in , and added the chicken . I continued to boil the chicken while preparing the carrots and potatoes . I took out a vegetable peeler and started to peel the carrots , and when I was satisfied , I pulled out a knife and cutting board and proceeded to slice the carrots on the cutting board . I went back to the boiling chicken and stirred it around a bit , and then went to the potatoes I had put on the counter . I washed off some of the dirt from the potatoes but did n't work that hard at it because I was going to peel them anyway . I then proceeded to dig out the potato 's `` eyes '' which are essentially little buds or sprouts that will form new potatoes . I then peeled the potatoes and rinsed them off and finally I sliced them up . At this time the chicken was about done , so I pulled out the chicken pieces and proceeded to peel the meat from the bones and then discarded the bones . I then put the chicken pieces back in and the rest of the spices and stirred it around . Finally I poured a bowl of soup for myself , making sure I got pieces of chicken , carrots and potatoes . It was still very hot and I had to sit and blow on it for a while until it became cool enough to eat . By this time , my Dad had come home and he was hungry too , so instead of lunch we ate an early dinner of this delicious soup . Finally finished with the soup which was very good , I put the empty dishes into the dishwasher to be cleaned later . Question: When did they bring the pot to a boil? Option1: before adding the ingredients Option2: after they put water in it A:
after they put water in it

You are given a paragraph (Passage), a question (Question) and two answer options (Option1 and Option2). Your task is to choose the correct answer to the question based on the passage. Answer of the question cannot be found directly from the passage, it is indirectly indicated in the passage. Do not answer with words other than the two options, and do not answer with option titles(e.g. "option1" or "1" are not acceptable answers.) One example: Passage: Omelettes make a great breakfast , and I enjoy making them because they are very easy to cook . First , I get the eggs out and begin cracking them on the side of the bowl and dumping them into the bowl . I normally use two eggs whites and one whole egg to cut the calories . I add some salt and pepper to the mix for flavor . I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan . I make sure that I add some vegetable oil to the pan before I add the eggs though because I do n't want them to stick . As this occurs , I add some cheese or vegetable to the center of the egg mixture . Really , almost any type of cheese or vegetable makes a good omelette . I then flip one side of the omelette over on to itself to seal in the contents in the middle . It is then ready to serve ! Question: Where is the omelette being browned? Option1: In the pan Option2: On the street Solution is here: In the pan Explanation: As mentioned in the passage that I pour the mixture into the hot frying pan; it is clear that omelette is being browned in pan only. Also, there is nothing related to street mention in the passage. Now, solve this: Passage: The other day , I went to Target to buy a new pair of jeans .
