Example: For four years we have waited expectantly for the pitter patter of tiny paws. Soon, that wait could finally be over. Tian Tian, the UK's only female giant panda, has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as August. However Edinburgh Zoo, where the pandas live, have warned people 'not to get too excited' as the process is 'extremely complex'. Moreover, on the two previous occasions keepers inseminated Tian Tian - whose name means 'Sweetie' - she has failed to produce a panda cub. She was artificially inseminated again in March this year, but keepers at the zoo say implantation - when a fertilised egg attaches to the uterus - has not yet occurred.Tian Tian has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as AugustShe has been inseminated twice before but so far failed to produce a cubTian Tian and Yang Guang arrived in 2011 from China to great fanfareOn loan at £600k a year, became first giant pandas to live in UK for 17 years

Question: (CNN) President Donald Trump is under fire again, this time for his firing of former FBI Director James Comey. But many of his supporters aren't joining the outcry. CNN spoke to Trump backers across the country, and while some of them expressed surprise at Comey's ouster, few said it changed their image of the leader of the free world. Here's what they had to say: Jake Lee, business owner Lee, 46, of West Hollywood, California, said he believes Trump made "the right decision" in axing Comey. "As far as the Comey thing goes, I think he gave him plenty of chances. I think what became the last straw was when he (Comey) made that statement about the classified emails showing up on (Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin's and her husband, former Congressman Anthony Weiner's) laptop. You can't have rules for the elitist ruling class and not have those rules apply to everybody else. I think in my opinion that was part of (Trump's) decision.

[EX Q]: When Leicester versus Chelsea was scheduled back in the summer, it’s fair to say that we all expected it to be a fixture which would shine a spotlight on one manager fighting for his credibility as he battled relegation, pitting himself against another who would likely be top of the table with his stock never higher. And so it has proved. Yet somehow, like a 2015 re-make of Trading Places, Jose Mourinho and Claudio Ranieri have contrived to swap roles. And never has Mourinho had to adopt a more humble persona than in the run-up to Monday’s match. Back in 2010, when Mourinho was manager of eventual Serie A champion Inter and Ranieri was at their principal rivals, Roma, Mourinho mocked the man he had replaced at Chelsea in 2004. ‘It is really not my fault if he was considered a loser at Chelsea,’ said Mourinho, in response to a perceived slight from his rival.Leicester can regain top spot if they beat champions Chelsea on MondayFormer Blues boss Claudio Ranieri mocked by Jose Mourinho in pastHowever, the Chelsea manager insists he always has respect for Ranieri

New input: (CNN) -- Maria Sharapova beat Li Na in three sets to defend her Italian Open title in Rome on Sunday in a bizarre match played in sometimes heavy rain and amid the distraction of football fans gathering nearby. Sharapova was 6-4 4-0 down but fought back to take the match into a deciding tiebreak -- after saving a match point at 6-5 in the third set. By the time the tiebreak came around, the rain was falling heavily, making conditions unplayable, and it even started to rain again when the players returned two hours later to complete the match. Sharapova eventually won it 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (5) and the two players burst out laughing when they shook hands at the net.Maria Sharapova beats Li Na 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (5) to win Italian OpenDeciding tiebreak delayed by 2 hours because of rain in RomeMen's final between Nadal and Djokovic postponed until MondaySharapova heads to French Open with two clay-court titles this year

New input: One of the greatest warships of the Middle Ages has been found buried in a river – after being spotted in an aerial photograph. The Holigost – or Holy Ghost – was the second of four 'great' ships built for Henry V's royal fleet. The 600-year-old vessel, which helped Henry V wage war on France, was spotted in the mud of the River Hamble in Hampshire by historian Dr Ian Friel. The wreck is in an area described as a medieval breaker’s yard, next to Henry’s flagship the Grace Dieu, which was identified in the 1930s. Historic England is taking steps to protect and investigate the vessel, which Dr Friel identified when he was revisiting documentary evidence for his new book, Henry V’s Navy.The Holigost - Holy Ghost - was one of four 'great' ships built for Henry VThe 600-year-old vessel is buried beneath mud in the River Hamble, HantsDr Ian Friel saw ship in photos of yard where Henry's Grace Dieu was foundHistoric England now taking steps to protect and investigate the shipwreck

Q: (CNN) On Saturday, President-elect Trump went after civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis, a man millions of Americans rightly admire for his courage and principles. Lewis had commented Friday that he didn't view Trump as a "legitimate" president since in his view "the Russians participated in helping this man [Trump] get elected." Well, Trump used Twitter to go after Lewis: "Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart." In a second tweet Trump added, "All talk, talk, talk - no action or results. Sad!" It appears that to Trump, Lewis risking his life in leading a civil rights march in 1965 across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, and being instrumental in leading the way for the passage of the Civil Rights and Voting Rights acts is just talk and not action.John Lewis' books sold out after the President-elect criticized him on TwitterDean Obeidallah says he wants to be Trump's next target

Input: Consider Input: (CNN) President Donald Trump is under fire again, this time for his firing of former FBI Director James Comey. But many of his supporters aren't joining the outcry. CNN spoke to Trump backers across the country, and while some of them expressed surprise at Comey's ouster, few said it changed their image of the leader of the free world. Here's what they had to say: Jake Lee, business owner Lee, 46, of West Hollywood, California, said he believes Trump made "the right decision" in axing Comey. "As far as the Comey thing goes, I think he gave him plenty of chances. I think what became the last straw was when he (Comey) made that statement about the classified emails showing up on (Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin's and her husband, former Congressman Anthony Weiner's) laptop. You can't have rules for the elitist ruling class and not have those rules apply to everybody else. I think in my opinion that was part of (Trump's) decision.

New input: (CNN) Electronic waste is (literally) a mounting crisis in Africa. Digital dumps made of junk phones, computers and TVs shipped mostly from richer Western countries are growing across Africa, burned producing unhealthy and hazardous gasses. The problem is only getting worse. Fortunately, though, there are those working at a community level to raise awareness about e-waste and put it to some good use. An innovative lab in Lomé, the capital city of Togo in West Africa, is one such group. They've created the first "Made in Africa" 3D printer using e-waste. WoeLab, a community tech hub established by architect Sénamé Koffi Agbodjinou, 37, made the machine using little more than scrap printers, computers and scanners.A lab in Togo, West Africa, is behind 3D printer made from e-wasteCreators say it is the first 'Made in Africa' 3D printer

Since launching his campaign last May, Sanders has received vastly less media attention than his chief Democratic opponent, while his chances of becoming the party's nominee were largely dismissed by pundits and commentators — despite the fact that, like a certain senator before him, he draws far larger crowds, boasts a remarkably enthusiastic volunteer base, and, though he doesn't have as much money as Clinton, set an all-time record with more than 2.3 million campaign contributions last year.The press has given Sanders scant coverage when compared to Hillary ClintonThe Vermont senator is neck-and-neck in Iowa and leading in New Hampshire

Input: Consider Input: London (CNN) -- To an outsider, Thursday's contest to elect the next mayor of London would appear to be a fight between two larger-than-life characters -- known best by their first names -- for control of the city's famous red buses. Among a wide field of candidates, only these two men have any realistic chance of taking a starring role at this summer's Olympic Games in London: Conservative Party incumbent Mayor Boris Johnson, 47, and his 66-year-old nemesis, Labour left-winger and former Mayor Ken Livingstone. Both men have devoted their energies to transport -- and attacking each other viciously on the issue, as well as on their complex personal tax arrangements.About 6 million Londoners are voting to elect new mayorRole largely ceremonial but mayor controls $23 billion budgetFront-runners are incumbent Conservative Boris Johnson and Labour's Ken LivingstoneTransport is key issue, especially design of city's famous red buses

Input: Consider Input: (CNN) It wasn't quite the G19 summit, but President Donald Trump's approach to foreign affairs is severely straining global cohesion on key issues like climate change and free trade, exchanging an aggressive, traditional American leadership role for isolation in a club of one. Don't expect him to apologize, though. The lonely US role at the G20 summit, a forum of the world's most powerful economies that Washington once dominated, is exactly consistent with what Trump sees as his mandate for a nationalistic, "America first" foreign policy. As Trump boarded Air Force One in Germany for the long flight across the Atlantic, some G20 leaders were left to reflect that their fears that he would be a disruptive force on the world stage have unarguably come true.Trump is changing American foreign policy conventionsOther leaders have been able to set the tone and agendaThe G20 summit ended late Saturday
Questions:But it didn't need a rare presidential press conference to make clear that the President's second trip abroad showed just how much he has reshaped _'s role in the world since taking office six months ago. (A) G19 (B) Donald Trump (C) American (D) US (E) G20 (F) Washington (G) Trump (H) Air Force One (I) Germany (J) Atlantic

(CNN) The unceremonious removal of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie as chairman of President-elect Donald Trump's transition team won't be the last power play by Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, a young businessman who is shaping up as one of the central figures of the new administration. Kushner is far less well known than his wife, Ivanka Trump, but is clearly a force to be reckoned with, wielding tremendous influence behind the scenes. It's widely assumed in political circles that the sacking of Christie was at least partly an act of personal payback by Kushner. Back in 2004, then-U.S. Attorney Christie convicted Kushner's father, Charles Kushner, on a variety of charges including tax evasion, witness tampering and making illegal campaign contributions.Donald Trump's son-in-law is shaping up as one of the central figures of the new administration, writes Errol LouisJared Kushner could be powerful behind the scenes -- or could start a Trump media venture, Louis says

(CNN) In response to recent guidance by the American Medical Association against the use of powerful LED lights, cities such as Phoenix; Lake Worth, Florida; and 25 towns in Connecticut are now opting for street lamps with lower color temperatures, meaning less blue light emission. The association's policy statement, released in June, suggested that LED lights with color temperatures higher than 3000 Kelvin had adverse effects on health, including eye damage and disrupted sleep patterns. The warning was aimed at large cities, where the standard color temperature for LED street lights is 5000K to 6000K. Lights with high color temperatures release more blue light, which cause more glare and discomfort to the eyes, according to the association.The American Medical Association recommends LED lights with less blue lightSome cities are replacing street lamps to improve public health

New input: (CNN) Ken Starr resigned as Baylor University's chancellor on Wednesday, less than a week after being removed as its president in the wake of sex assault controversy involving the school's football team. Baylor, a Christian university, removed Starr as its president last Thursday after unveiling the results of an independent investigation that showed a "fundamental failure" to respond adequately to student sex assault allegations, including some involving players for the Texas school's rising football program. Starr, whose investigation led to the impeachment of President Bill Clinton in the 1990s over the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal, was then named the school's chancellor. That appointment, however, lasted only a few days. He will continue to teach at Baylor's law school.Ken Starr is resigning as Baylor University's chancellor less than a week after being removed as its president"We need to put this horrible experience behind us," Starr said

Problem: (CNN) It was the second deadliest conflict in the world last year, but it hardly registered in the international headlines. As Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan dominated the news agenda, Mexico's drug wars claimed 23,000 lives during 2016 -- second only to Syria, where 50,000 people died as a result of the civil war. "This is all the more surprising, considering that the conflict deaths [in Mexico] are nearly all attributable to small arms," said John Chipman, chief executive and director-general of the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), which issued its annual survey of armed conflict on Tuesday. "The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan claimed 17,000 and 16,000 lives respectively in 2016, although in lethality they were surpassed by conflicts in Mexico and Central America, which have received much less attention from the media and the international community," said Anastasia Voronkova, the editor of the survey.Mexican government disputes death toll, methodologyClashes between drug cartels killed more people than conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan

In this task, you will be presented with a passage and have to answer a question based on your understanding of the events inferred from the passage. Among the entities, try to find the best entity that is most likely to fill in "_" and classify the answers based on options.
Example Input: (CNN) Though many individuals likely contributed to the President's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey, one notable one may have been Roger Stone, a 64-year-old close friend of Donald Trump and central figure in the FBI investigation into Trump campaign ties to Russia. In the middle of the Watergate scandal, Stone, who engaged in dirty tricks during Richard Nixon's 1972 campaign, was discovered to have hired a Republican operative to infiltrate the George McGovern campaign and was subsequently fired from his job. After the President's resignation, Stone remained an ardent Nixon apologist and loyalist. He even had the man's face tattooed on his back and devoted his life to ruthless, anything-goes politics (or political consulting, as you may know it). Stone's motto was and continues to be: "Admit nothing, deny everything, launch counterattack." And anyone who has watched Trump closely over the years would think it was his personal slogan, too.Michael D'Antonio: Roger Stone has undoubtedly influenced President Trump's decision to fire James ComeyAs an old friend and political adviser, Stone has taught Trump be ruthless -- particularly when protecting himself from attackTherefore Comey, who was leading the investigation into Trump campaign ties to Russia, had to be taken out, writes D'Antonio
Questions:Stone was introduced to _ in the 1980s by the notorious Roy Cohn. (A) CNN (B) FBI (C) James Comey (D) Roger Stone (E) Donald Trump (F) Russia (G) Watergate (H) Stone (I) Richard Nixon (J) Republican (K) George McGovern (L) Nixon (M) Michael D'Antonio (N) Comey (O) D'Antonio

Example Input: The inquest will be long, weary and painful. Yet the reasons Celtic suffered a second successive Champions League exit under Ronny Deila were not hard to find. On a night when they needed discipline, calm and composure, Scotland's champions contrived to make a pig's ear of it. Malmo not only had the mouth. They also had the trousers. Over two games against a modest team, Celtic's defending was dismal. Shipping three goals from corner kicks, the zonal marking was wretched. In their past five games, Deila's side have now lost nine goals, 28 in their past 18 European matches in all. The Achilles' heel is clear, brutally exposed once more to the naked eye here.Celtic failed to reach the lucrative group stage of the Champions League after losing in SwedenMarkus Rosenberg opened the scoring for the home side with a header in the first halfCeltic's Leigh Griffiths was fortunate not to see red for appearing to knee an opposition player in the privatesThe visitors had a goal disallowed when Nir Biton found the net but the referee incorrectly ruled a handballFelipe Carvalho added a second 10 minutes after the break to double Malmo's advantage
Questions:_ had the scent of blood in their nostrils and even one looked beyond them. (A) Celtic (B) Champions League (C) Ronny Deila (D) Scotland (E) Malmo (F) Deila (G) European (H) Achilles (I) Sweden (J) Markus Rosenberg (K) Leigh Griffiths (L) Nir Biton (M) Felipe Carvalho

Example Input: Seven decades of separation has seen even the language of North and South Korea split into two different dialects. The two countries, though enemies, are tied together by history, by family and by language - but only to a point. South Koreans have incorporated many English words and phrases into their language while isolated communist North Korea has eliminated words with foreign origins and created homegrown substitutes. North Korean defector Pak Mi-ok ended up going without water during a meal in the South because she was too shy to admit she didn't understand the term 'self-service' For those south of the divide, English-based words like 'shampoo,' 'juice' and 'self-service' are common.Two countries are tied together by history, by family and by languageBut a third of everyday words used in the two countries are differentSouth Koreans incorporate English words and phrases into their languageBut in communist North Korea, words with foreign origins are eliminated

Example: For four years we have waited expectantly for the pitter patter of tiny paws. Soon, that wait could finally be over. Tian Tian, the UK's only female giant panda, has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as August. However Edinburgh Zoo, where the pandas live, have warned people 'not to get too excited' as the process is 'extremely complex'. Moreover, on the two previous occasions keepers inseminated Tian Tian - whose name means 'Sweetie' - she has failed to produce a panda cub. She was artificially inseminated again in March this year, but keepers at the zoo say implantation - when a fertilised egg attaches to the uterus - has not yet occurred.Tian Tian has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as AugustShe has been inseminated twice before but so far failed to produce a cubTian Tian and Yang Guang arrived in 2011 from China to great fanfareOn loan at £600k a year, became first giant pandas to live in UK for 17 years

Q: NASA has given the people of Earth a rare treat: A color mosaic that captures not only Saturn, but also the tiny dots of Earth and other planets in the background. The panorama, released Tuesday, was captured by the Cassini spacecraft on July 19, when the sun slipped behind the ringed planet. Earth appears as a bright blue dot to Saturn's lower right, just above Saturn's outer, halo-like E-ring. Venus is a dot to the upper left, with Mars appearing as a faint red dot above and to the left of Venus. This is the first image in which Saturn, its moons and rings, and Earth, Venus and Mars are all visible, NASA said. The image -- a panorama of 141 wide-angle pictures -- covers 404,880 miles across Saturn and its ring system.Image is Cassini's first showing Saturn, rings, moons, Earth, Venus and Mars at same timeThe collage is panorama of 141 wide-angle pictures taken July 19Image was possible that day because Saturn obstructed spacecraft's view of sun
