Two guys were taking Chemistry at the University of Mississippi. They did pretty well on all of the quizzes and the midterms and labs. These two friends were so confident going into the final exams that the weekend before finals week (even though the Chemistry final was on Monday), they decided to go up to the University of Tennessee and party with some friends.

They had a great time. However, with hangovers and everything, they overslept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to Mississippi until Monday night. They went to see their professor the following day to explain why they missed the test.

They told him that they went up to the University of Tennessee for the weekend, and had planned to come back in time to study, but that they had a flat(漏了气的) tire(轮胎) on the way back, and didn’t have a spare(备胎), and couldn’t get help for a long time, so they were late getting back to campus. The professor thought this over

and told them they could make up the final on the following day. The two guys were relieved. They studied that night and went in the next day for the final.

The professor placed them in different rooms, and handed each of them a test paper and told them to begin. They looked at the first problem, which was worth five points. It was something simple about Molarity & Solutions.

“Cool,” they thought. “This is going to be easy” They did that problem and then turned the page. They were not prepared, however, for what they saw on this page. It said: (95 Points). Which tire?

C. He didn’t believe a word.                D. He gave them a second chance.

30.  Why does the question “Which tire” deserve 95 points?

A.  Because it is a real difficult question.

B.  Because it can test whether the two guys were lying.

C.  Because it is the last question on the paper.

D.  Because it remains a mystery in the field of chemistry.

31.  What can we probably learn from the passage?
