A major issue recently has been people cheating on their school exams. In the last week alone, four students have been caught with answer sheets prepared before the test. It is very sad to see students acting so dishonestly and even sadder to see them fail their exams because of cheating. Moreover, the cheat sheets that have been taken are very well made. Clearly, students have put in a great deal of effort to create them. If students had just focused on studying instead of trying to cheat, they probably would have done well on their own. The faculty is holding meetings this week to find out what they can do to fix this problem. They have already decided to fail any student who is caught cheating and are considering additional actions. Realistically, the students need to help themselves. Students at this school
10 need to realize how dishonest and unfair it is to cheat. Everyone needs to follow the rules for the rest of exams. That means that students shouldn't have cheat sheets, shouldn't look at the papers of others, and shouldn't use any other methods of cheating.

Classes will be canceled again tomorrow because of another snowstorm that is quickly approaching from the north. We will have to make up for the missed days in the spring so students will not miss any important lessons. Weather reports show that some places on the east coast have already gotten nearly a meter of snow and are experiencing high winds.
All students are advised to go straight home after school. Students, teachers, and parents should stay off the roads tonight because the storm will be arriving in the late evening and lasting until tomorrow afternoon. During the last snowstorm, there were a number of car accidents caused by snowy and icy roads, so please be careful.
Hopefully school will resume on Thursday, but this will depend on the severity of the storm. Listen to your radio or watch the news on Wednesday night and Thursday morning so you know whether or not to come to school.

(A) Snowstorms are fairly common in the region.
(B) The location usually gets rain instead of snow.
(C) There have never been big snowstorms in the area.

Take this telescope home and look at the night sky from your backyard. I want you to write down everything interesting you see and next week we will talk about it in class," Mr. Anderson said at the end of our astronomy class.
I asked my best friend Courtney if she wanted to come over to my house on Saturday to watch the stars with me. She agreed and we decided we would camp out all night.
"Tonight is going to be very clear," my mom said as she helped us set the tent up. We sat watching the sky for several hours.
"Adam, what is that?" Courtney asked, sounding very confused.
I looked into the telescope and saw that a large, circular airplane was getting closer and closer to us. It had thousands of rotating lights and I could see two small, green men leaning over the controls.
"It is coming right for us!" I shouted.
15 The flying saucer landed and the two spacemen got out with smiles on their long, flat
faces. They shook our hands as we stood unable to speak.
"We are from the planet Kepron 12 and we have been sent to teach you about tlirL universe," said the smaller of the two aliens with a very odd-sounding accent.
Courtney and I spent the rest of the night learning about the universe from our new friends a until they had to leave.
"Good luck in your astronomy class next week," the taller alien said. "I hope that we can meet again and maybe you can visit our home."
We both said we would like to and waved to them as they flew away. The next couple of days went by slowly because we were excited to give our report. On Thursday, our chance aJ finally came.
Mr. Anderson, however, laughed and said, "You guys have great imaginations! But your assignment was supposed to be on things that you actually saw." He would not listen to us and told us to repeat the task next weekend.
We didn't mind though. Courtney and I both knew that sometime in the future our friends 30 would be back. One day, we will prove to everyone that we were right.
What is the best title for the story?
(A) The Truth About Kepron 12
(B) A Difficult Astronomy Assignment
(C) Two Students Encountering Two Aliens
(D) Teachers Who Don't Believe Their Students
