First and foremost, carefully read the instructions for each T-F-NG question. Pay attention to any specific guidelines, such as whether the statements must be supported by evidence in the passage or if they should reflect the writer's opinion.

Next, proceed to read the passage thoroughly, keeping in mind the statements provided in the question. Pay close attention to the relevant sections that may contain information relating to the statements. Look for keywords or phrases that directly address or contradict the statements.

When evaluating each statement, consider whether there is clear evidence in the passage that supports its truthfulness. If you find explicit information that confirms the statement, mark it as "True." Conversely, if you encounter evidence that directly contradicts the statement, mark it as "False." Be cautious not to base your decision on assumptions or personal opinions. Stick to the information presented in the passage.

There may be instances where the information regarding a statement is not explicitly stated in the passage. In such cases, mark the statement as "Not Given." Remember, "Not Given" means there is insufficient information to confirm or deny the statement's truthfulness.

It's crucial to be aware of any qualifying words or phrases in the statements, such as "all," "only," "always," or "never." Pay close attention to these qualifiers, as they can significantly affect the accuracy of the statement.

Time management is key when answering T-F-NG questions. Allocate a specific amount of time for each question and avoid spending too much time on a single statement. If you're unsure about a statement, make an educated guess and move on. You can revisit it later if time allows.

Helicopter without pilots

For the first time, a military helicopter flew without pilots. There were two flights on Saturday and Monday, and they lasted about 30 minutes. There were no passengers on board.

Engineers installed a special technology in the helicopter which made it possible to fly without pilots. The Black Hawk helicopter flew through a simulated city, and then it landed perfectly at Fort Campbell, US.

This technology helps pilots to focus on missions instead of flying helicopters. They fly in many types of weather, at night, and when they can’t see very well. The military hopes that it will make missions more successful.

CHAPITRE 1 : LE DÉPART DU CHEVALIER COURAGEUX

Dictée

Il était une fois, dans un royaume lointain au cœur du Moyen Âge, un jeune chevalier nommé Arthur. Arthur était connu pour sa force, son courage et sa loyauté envers son roi et son peuple. Un jour, une mystérieuse carte arrive au château royal. Cette carte indique une terre inconnue, pleine de secrets et de mystères à découvrir.

Intrigué par cette nouvelle aventure, Arthur décide de se porter volontaire pour explorer cette terre lointaine. 

Après des jours de voyage à travers des régions sauvages et des montagnes escarpées, Arthur arrive enfin à l'entrée d'une dense forêt. Cette forêt, connue sous le nom de Forêt Enchantée, était depuis la nuit des temps réputée pour ses maléfices et ses dangers cachés.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【吃辣】的话题。
在中国，有一些地区的人有吃辣的习惯。近日有一项关于吃辣与肿瘤风险相关的研究，我们一起来看看研究的结果是什么吧。
近日一项纳入约51万中国居民、平均随访10.8年的最新研究表明，吃辣或与唇、口腔及咽部的恶性肿瘤风险降低有关。该研究由北京大学公共卫生学院、中国医学科学院、牛津大学的研究团队联合完成。研究发表于《中华流行病学》杂志，研究显示，与从不吃或者偶尔吃辣的人相比，每天吃辣的人罹患唇、口腔及咽部的恶性肿瘤风险降低31%。其中偏好中等辣度的人上述肿瘤的风险最低。相比于从不或偶尔摄入辣食的人群可降低33%的风险。
主持人：那么常吃辣真的能够帮助抵抗口咽部的肿瘤吗？生活中我们又该如何科学吃辣呢？好接下来我们连线在线专家团的左小霞医生为大家解读一下。您好，左医生，很高兴又和您见面了。您能不能帮我们解读一下或者试着分析一下，因为我们觉得吃辣可能更多的是感受一种对口腔的刺激，是一种火辣辣的那种稍微有点灼痛灼烧的那种感觉，那为什么能够让它得肿瘤的这种几率会下降呢？是说我们的适应性更强了吗？会从这个方面来解读吗？
左医生：有研究呢显示分析可能是这个原因，就是说你的辣椒里边之所以辣，是因为它有辣椒素，辣椒素可以激活我们身体的很多的一个蛋白，能够诱导细胞的凋亡。它的这个原理是什么呢？通过抑制细胞周期的调节因子来使这个细胞分裂它的分裂啊、灭亡这个增加，然后可能就是阻止了这个细胞的进一步的加强癌症的这个运动。所以我是觉得可能是抑制它的细胞调节因子的周期，把你这个周期、你的生长分类给你破坏了，阻止了癌症的进一步的恶化。应该是这个道理，所以说可能还是辣椒素干扰了我们癌细胞的一个代谢。
你喜欢吃辣吗？留言告诉我吧。下期我们一起来听听专家说应该怎么吃辣。
