Read this section from “Counterpoint: Mandatory Volunteer Work Does More Harm Than Good” from Should Volunteering Be Mandatory f

or Teens? and answer the follow-up questions.
The most compelling argument against making volunteer work a mandatory part of school curriculum is time. Teens today are just too busy to add another stressor to their lives. Let’s take a look at twenty-four hours in the life of a typical teen. Allocate eight hours per day for sleep, eight hours for school (including getting ready and travel time), three hours for homework, two hours for activities such as sports or a part-time job, two hours for dinner and family time, and one hour for socializing. These activities take up all twenty-four hours leaving scarcely any time for volunteer work. Should students have to sacrifice their one hour of socializing per day, or sacrifice an hour of precious family time? These options just don’t make sense as making more demands on teens’ packed schedules can have serious side effects. Teens who are too busy feel tired, anxious, or depressed. Studies show they often have headaches or stomachaches due to stress, missed meals, or lack of sleep and they may fall behind in school, causing their grades to suffer. These drawbacks clearly outweigh the benefits of volunteering.

What is the author’s point of view concerning teenagers and their time?

A. Teens spend time on frivolous things.

B. Teens need better time management skills.

C. Teens have little free time to spare.

D. Teens should have less stress in their lives.

"The Landlady" by Roald Dahl is a story that has a weird unusual hobby of taxidermy. She stuffs dead corpses. This hobby of her and how she deals with death is absolutely scary, at the same time interesting for readers to know her intentions behind it.

Explanation:

Billy, another main character of this story, is 17 and is annoyed by the acts of the Landlady. He thinks her to be odd and manner less as she keeps touching his hands and shoulders while talking to him. Her compliments on his appearance make Billy feel very uncomfortable, every time they have a conversation.

When the story progresses and readers get to know that the Landlady stuffed her dead pets in a briefcase and does the same with human bodies too, readers along with Billy start wondering about what kind of a sinister this woman is. She finally murders both other boys and stuff them like she did with the pets, at the end of the story.
