Read the excerpt from "Mother Tongue." Those tests were constructed around items like fill-in-the-blank sentence completion, suc

h as “Even though Tom was ______, Mary thought he was _____.” And the correct answer always seemed to be the most bland combinations of thoughts, for example, “Even though Tom was foolish, Mary thought he was ridiculous.” Well, according to my mother, there were very few limitations as to what Tom could have been and what Mary might have thought of him. So I never did well on tests like that. Which information from the excerpt best supports the inference that achievement tests ignore imagination as an element of language ability? Tan’s mother would not be able to answer a question like the one described in the excerpt. Tan’s mother could think of several ways to answer a question like the one described in the excerpt. Tan’s mother did not allow her to take tests with questions like the one described in the excerpt. Tan’s mother was disappointed that Tan did poorly on tests with questions like the one described in the excerpt.

The correct option is this: TAN'S MOTHER COULD THINK OF SEVERAL WAYS TO ANSWER A QUESTION LIKE THE ONE DESCRIBED IN THE EXCERPT.
From the passage, it can be seen that, Tan's mother believed that so many things would have fit exactly into those blanks that are present in the questions given to Tan. This shows that the mother's imagination is very active and that those that set those questions have ignored imagination ability of the students.

Why can't humans digest all carbohydrates ?
KIM [24]
The enzymes that digest carbohydrates are very specific and can only digest specific glucose monomers of a Polysaccharides. For example our body can digest starch since its made up of α-glucose monomers (the difference of α-glucose and β-glucose is just on the location of the hydroxl group). However <span>Polysaccharides</span> like cellulose are indigestible because cellulose is made up of β-glucose and the enzyme which digests polysaccharides in humans (amylase) cannot detect β-glucose linkages.
