Let's see if you can correctly answer the following question: At what age are Latter-day Saint youth allowed to date? Of course, you probably immediately said, "16". OK, then, how about this one: At what age are you allowed to have a boyfriend or girlfriend? You may be thinking, “Um, 16. Didn't I just answer that?" Well, if that was your answer, then, even though you aced the first question, you missed the second one. Just because you can date when you turn 16 doesn't mean you should immediately start looking for a steady boyfriend or girlfriend. [….]
To begin with, there are two different types of dating: casual dating and steady (or serious) dating. The distinction between the two has to do with exclusivity. With casual dating, there is no exclusivity. The two people aren't “a couple” or “an item”, and they don't refer to each other as a “boyfriend” or “girlfriend”. They don't pair off. People who are casually dating are simply friends. This is the kind of dating the Church encourages you to do after you turn 16. You should put aside a need to find a “one and only”. If you're dating casually, you don't expect a relationship to become a romance. You have fun; you do a variety of things with a variety of people. On the other hand, steady dating means the couple is exclusive with one another. They expect each other not to date anyone else or to be emotionally or physically close with other people. Couples who date seriously consider the future, because there is a real possibility they could stay together. This is the kind of dating the Church encourages young adults (generally, people in their 20s) to progress toward, because that's the age when they should be thinking of marrying. [….]
Question 2: The word “aced” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ____.

B. misled
C. succeeded in
D. understood
Choose the correct answer – A,B,C or D – to each question
Mankind is feeling greater pressure from the expanding number of people. The area of the earth can never be expanded. Nor are there endless sources of food and clothing. Yet people are being born faster than they are dying. In the next forty years, the world population may double. How can so many people be fed? What is worse, there is danger that someday mankind will have only standing room.
Birth control should be a basic policy in our country. China has the greatest number of population in the world. With a high birth rate, the production of grains and goods will be unable to meet the need of the people. To raise people’s living standard, we must practise birth control.
There are disadvantages of a family having more children. First, parents cannot give their children a good breeding in food, clothing and shelter, let alone education. Second, child-rearing will exhaust the parents, leaving no time and energy for their work. Last, a family with more children will increase the burden of society.
The world population may double in the next forty years because............................
A. people don't know how to limit population
B. government hasn't provided birth-control methods.
C. people are being born faster than they are dying
D. each individual isn't responsible for limiting population.
