Left-handers are the odd ones out. Sure, lefties (1) ______up about 10 percent of the population - but, frankly, it seems like society has forgotten about them.

And researchers have found different brain wirings in righties vs. lefties. But no matter (4) ______it is that drives someone to use their antipodal paw, science has also uncovered a particular set of personality traits that left-handed people tend to have.

Passage 2: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 6 to 12.
Successful students often do the followings while studying. First, they have an overview before reading. Next, they look for important information and pay greater attention to it (which often needs jumping forward or backwards to process information). They also relate important points to one another. Also, they activate and use their prior knowledge. When they realize that their understanding is not good, they do not wait to change strategies. Last, they can monitor understanding and take action to correct or “fix up” mistakes incomprehension.
Conversely, students with low academic achievement often demonstrate ineffective study skills. They tend to assume a passive role, in learning and rely on others (e.g., teachers, parents) to monitor their studying, for example, low-achieving students often do not monitor their understanding of content; they may not be aware of the purpose of studying, and they show little evidence of looking back or employing “fix-up” strategies to fix understanding problems. Students who struggle with learning new information seem to be unaware that they must extent effort beyond simply reading the content to understand and remember it. Children with learning disabilities do not plan and judge the quality of their studying. Their studying may be disorganized. Students with learning problems face challenges with the personal organization as well. They often have difficulty keeping track of materials and assignments, following directions, and completing work on time. Unlike good studiers who employ a variety of study skills in a flexible yet purposeful manner, low-achieving students use a restricted range of study skills. They cannot explain why good study strategies are important for learning, and they tend to use the same, often ineffective study approach for all learning tasks, ignoring task content, structure or difficulty.

Freedom is never dear at any price. It is the breath of life. What would a man not pay for living?
Let the human mind loose. It must be loose. It will be loose. Superstition and dogmatism cannot confine it.
Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry is own weight, this is a frightening prospect.
I am an organizer of the Maths-English contest, so of course I'd love to answer these topics!
Calling the number of apples the sister left for her brothers x [apple(s), \(x\in N\)*].
With the first statement related to the question, the oldest brother divided the apples into three parts, leaving an apple to the youngest one. So the number of apples left for the two younger brothers is: \(\dfrac{x}{3}+\left(\dfrac{x}{3}+1\right)=\dfrac{2x+3}{3}\).
With the second statement, the middle brother divided the apples into three thirds and gave away one apple in his ration. So therefore, the number of apples left for the youngest brother is: \(\dfrac{\dfrac{2x+3}{3}}{3}+\left(\dfrac{\dfrac{2x+3}{3}}{3}+1\right)=2.\dfrac{2x+3}{9}+1=\dfrac{4x+6}{9}+1=\dfrac{4x+15}{9}\).
With the third statement, the youngest brother woke up and saw 7 apples. So we have:
\(\dfrac{4x+15}{9}=7\)
\(\Leftrightarrow4x+15=63\).
\(\Leftrightarrow4x=48\).
\(\Leftrightarrow x=12\). This answer satisfies the conditions of x.
Thanks everyone for your interest to this answer. And don't forget, the Vietnam English-Maths Contest hosted by me and VICE members will begin in the 29th of June, 2021 ^^
