Answer 2

Gregory was trying to read his new detective novel in his room when he heard a rustling in the bushes outside. He thought maybe it was the neighbor's dog chasing a stray cat again. He dropped his book when he looked out the closed window and saw a bearded man outside whom he didn't recognize.
"Who is that?" whispered Gregory's younger sister Laura from the entrance to Gregory's room. "I saw him from the living room window."
The man walked across the lawn, and the bushes continued rustling. Gregory slowly stepped down from his bed and tiptoed on the carpet toward the window.
"I'm scared," Laura whispered. "Is he a burglar? Call the police."
Gregory heard the outdoor water faucet squeak on. This is a bigger mystery than I was reading about earlier, he thought, suddenly feeling like a detective. Stretching his neck to get a good look outside but hoping he could not be seen through the blinds, he whispered, "Is he watering our lawn?"
Laura threw her skinny arms around Gregory's waist and hugged him in fright.
With a shaking hand, Gregory pulled his cell phone out of his pocket. Before he could dial 911, the phone rang. He answered the call on speakerphone so that Laura could hear and so that the man outside would know that somebody was home. "Hi, Mom," Gregory said.
"Hey!" Gregory and Laura's mother exclaimed in a voice that sounded tinny over the phone. "After I got to work this morning, the landlady called and said that she just hired a gardener. He should come by sometime today. I can't remember his name, but she said that he has a beard."
Gregory erupted in laughter, and Laura released her frightened hug and groaned.
From across the lawn, the bearded man—who was now pushing a wheelbarrow—smiled and waved at Gregory and Laura.
"Mystery solved," Gregory said, waving back and no longer feeling like a detective.

Answer 20

The basic understanding of Chinese medicine is that energy in our bodies flows through certain channels, called meridians. For one reason or another, the energy in these channels can become blocked, causing sickness. Placing the needles in specific points helps to stimulate the energy flowing through the meridians, clearing away the blockages. During treatment, patients usually lie on their backs while the acupuncturist inserts needles into certain points on the hands, arms, feet, legs, ears, and even the face. Once the needles have been inserted, the patient is often left to relax for 30 minutes or longer to allow the needles to do their work. It is not uncommon for the patient to fall asleep during this time, even with a dozen needles sticking out of his or her body! There's nothing like a nap at the doctor's office!

What is the best summary of the third paragraph?

A.
According to Chinese medicine, energy flows through meridians and can become blocked.

B.
There is nothing better than taking a nap at the doctor's office while stuck with needles.

C.
Placing needles at certain points in the body stimulates energy in the meridians to heal sickness.

D.
The patient is left to relax or sleep for about 30 minutes after the needles are inserted
