What statement of the following can NOT be true according to the passage？

C．A pediatrician is a doctor who gives medical treatments to children.

D．Children like to take in vitamins which are made in a funny form.

ware, a strong, impervious grey pottery fired at high temperatures, were produced from two

different native clays. These kind of pottery were produced to supplement imported European

pottery. When the American Revolution (1775-1783) interrupted the flow of the superior European

(5) ware, there was incentive for American potters to replace the imports with comparable domestic

goods. Stoneware, which had been simple, utilitarian kitchenware, grew increasingly ornate

throughout the nineteenth century, and in addition to the earlier scratched and drawn designs,

three-dimensional molded relief decoration became popular. Representational motifs largely

replaced the earlier abstract decorations. Birds and flowers were particularly evident, but other

(10) subjects---lions, flags, and clipper ships---are found. Some figurines, mainly of dogs and lions,

were made in this medium. Sometimes a name, usually that of the potter, was die-stamped onto a

piece.

As more and more large kilns were built to create the high-fired stoneware, experiments revealed

that the same clay used to produce low-fired red ware could produce a stronger, paler pottery if

(15) fired at a hotter temperature. The result was yellow ware, used largely for serviceable items; but a

further development was Rockingham ware---one of the most important American ceramics of the

nineteenth century. (The name of the ware was probably derived from its resemblance to English

brown-glazed earthenware made in South Yorkshire.) It was created by adding a brown glaze to

the fired clay, usually giving the finished product a mottled appearance. Various methods of

(20) spattering or sponging the glaze onto the ware account for the extremely wide variations in color

and add to the interest of collecting Rockingham. An advanced form. of Rockingham was flint

enamel, created by dusting metallic powders onto the Rockingham glaze to produce brilliant

varicolored streaks.

Articles for nearly every household activity and ornament could be bought in Rockingham ware:

(25) dishes and bowls, of course; also bedpans, foot warmers, cuspidors, lamp bases, doorknobs,

molds, picture frames, even curtain tiebacks. All these items are highly collectible today and are

eagerly sought. A few Rockingham specialties command particular affection among collectors and

correspondingly high prices.

Why did the potters discussed in the passage change the kind of pottery they made？

A．They discovered a new kind of clay.

B．They were compensation for the loss of an overseas supplier.

C．They studied new techniques in Europe.

D．The pottery they had been producing was not very strong.

Which one of the following statements is TRUE according to Para. 1 ？

A．The amount of Vitamin D intake for the author"s first child is a half of that for her third child.

B．The author"s new born baby was taking Vitamin D pills.

C．Sunshine can help produce Vitamin D.

D．The author"s second child did not have any Vitamin D supplement when born.

Communication, navigation and surveillance tools help ATC controllers to fulfil their primary responsibility of preventing collisions between aircraft. These tools become more and more vital to safety and increased efficiency. With the number of flights handled increasing exponentially every year, the pressure is also rising for controllers. This creates a higher 3 for human error and makes the role of automated assistance even more important. Airport visibility is an area where automation systems currently provide a major boost. An ATC tower window serves as the main source of information to controllers while they give clearances to aircraft landing, taking off, or taxiing to and from the stand. Nevertheless, 4 such as hangars and stands, poor weather conditions, and runways that stretch into the horizon can make their job more difficult. Controllers therefore use radar displays to supplement their awareness. Automated warnings, such as those provided by a short-term conflict 5 system, let the controller know automatically if an aircraft or vehicle is attempting to enter a runway when it is already occupied. With automation, aircraft can be accurately 6 with reduced separation standards, thus it reduces the load on the controllers and increase airspace capacity. It offers 7 benefits as well, because it means there will be less flight delays and that aircraft will have their engines running for shorter times.”but one of the biggest problems with automation is that it can fail and it is therefore necessary for the system to make clear to operators when it has 8 and for controllers to recognize when this has happened. In addition, controllers are needed to be properly trained to use and 9 new automated systems. Could air traffic controllers be replaced by automated systems altogether one day？ Both experts say that although the systems are proven to increase efficiency, for the next 20 years at least, humans will remain 10
