B  A Different Kind of Help

When Kai joined the school running team, he was much slower than the other members. After the first practice, he told his friend Mei that he might leave. He thought staying on the team meant he had to win a race soon.

Mei did not tell him that he would surely win. Instead, she asked him to choose a smaller goal. Kai decided to run for ten minutes without stopping. Mei ran beside him twice a week, but she let him choose the speed. At first, Kai stopped after six minutes. He wrote the time in a notebook and tried again the next week.

After a month, Kai reached ten minutes. He was pleased, although he still finished behind most of the team. At the next practice, a new runner arrived and looked nervous. Kai remembered his first day. He offered to run with her at a comfortable speed. Now Kai sees the team differently: a member can make progress and help others without being the fastest.

30. Why did Kai think about leaving the team?

A. He thought the practice time was too short. B. He expected himself to win soon.
C. He wanted to change the team’s goal. D. He thought Mei would leave the team.

31. How did Mei help Kai?

A. She supported a small goal he chose. B. She asked him to train at her speed.
C. She promised he would win soon. D. She chose a race for him to enter.

32. What did Kai do after stopping at six minutes?

A. He recorded the time and left the team. B. He recorded the time but stopped training.
C. He set a goal of running for six minutes. D. He recorded the time and tried again.

33. What did Kai learn?

A. A runner should always choose the fastest speed. B. A runner should focus only on winning.
C. Progress and helping others also matter. D. Progress matters only when a runner wins.

C  A Poster That Changed

A group of students made a poster to invite people to a school repair afternoon. Their first design had bright colours and a long list of tools. They put it on a wall and asked ten students to look at it for a few seconds. Most noticed the colours, but only three could say when the event would start.

The group did not make the title bigger immediately. First, they asked the students what information they needed. Some wanted to know whether they had to bring tools. Others were not sure which room to go to. The group then moved the time and place to the top and added one sentence: ‘Tools are provided.’

A week later, the students tested the new poster with a different group. This time, eight out of ten could find the starting time. One student still thought the event was for teachers only, so the group added ‘All students welcome’. The poster became useful because the designers listened, tested and made changes—not because they chose the brightest colour.

34. What could only three students find in the first test?

A. The event’s room. B. Whether tools were needed.
C. The starting time. D. Who could attend.

35. Why did the group ask students questions?

A. To find out which colour readers liked most. B. To find out how many tools readers owned.
C. To find out who had designed the first poster. D. To decide what information readers needed.

36. What did the group add after the second test?

A. A list of tools to bring. B. An invitation to all students.
C. A different starting time. D. A new room for teachers.

37. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Listening to readers can improve a design. B. A design should put colour before information.
C. A design is complete after its first test. D. A design should answer just one question.
