Paraphrase the following paragraph (3) from “Teaching Versus Acting”

“Indeed, not all teachers are brilliant ones. There are specific skills that good teachers should have. For instance, the true teacher knows how to engage the audience and turn class into and interesting demonstration of knowledge. In other words, a good teacher understands that it is not enough to know the subject, one has to know how to make this subject interesting and attractive to the audience - students. So, teaching and acting are two sides of the same coin.”

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, by James Cross Giblin.

Young had learned to read before he was two, and by the age of twenty had mastered a dozen foreign languages including Arabic, Persian, and Turkish. An inheritance from an uncle left him free to pursue his scientific interests. At various times, Young studied the habits of spiders, the surface features of the moon, and diseases of the chest. Then, intrigued by the challenge of the Rosetta Stone, he put aside his other studies and concentrated on attempting to decipher the writing on it. Young had read of de Sacy’s and Akerblad’s work in Paris, and was determined to succeed where they had failed.

The details in this excerpt hint that Giblin has a

positive attitude toward Young’s passion for learning.
positive attitude toward learning new languages.
a negative attitude toward Young’s lack of focus.
a negative attitude toward living off an inheritance.

Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.

When I was twelve years old and Barton, my older brother, was around fifteen, we took over the family basement. At first, I made a darkroom for developing pictures, and Bart was using it as his lab where he was raising about one hundred white rats, removing their thymus glands, and trying to figure out the glands' dysfunction. He wanted pictures taken of his experiment, doing the surgery on rats, and since I already had a darkroom, I took the pictures, though somewhat reluctantly. I didn't like the blood.

What can you conclude about Barton from the excerpt?

He was interested in solving medical mysteries at a rather early age.
He did not understand why Dean would be squeamish about the blood.
He went on to become a very famous and successful doctor.
He had a severe dislike for rats and all other kinds of rodents.
