Regular dental cleanings combined with brushing and flossing will help keep tooth decay by removing plaque from oral surfaces. Plaque contributes to gingivitis, a kind of gum inflammation that can lead to periodontal disease. Research has connected oral conditions such as periodontal disease to an increased risk for heart problems, so keeping your smile healthy may also help keep your heart healthy. In addition to poor oral hygiene, other factors that may increase a person's risk of gum diseases include smoking; having certain medical conditions, such as diabetes; using certain medications; and neglecting regular dental care.

Charles Brockden Brown was one of the first professional American writers. He was inspired by the English writers Mrs. Radcliffe, known for her terrifying Gothic novels, and William Godwin, the author of Frankenstein. Brown published four haunting novels in just two years. In them, he developed the genre of American Gothic. The Gothic novel featured exotic and wild settings, disturbing psychological depth, and much suspense. Trappings included ruined castles or abbeys, ghosts, mysterious secrets, threatening figures, and solitary maidens who survive by their spiritual strength. At their best, such novels offer tremendous suspense and hints of magic, along with profound explorations of the human soul. Critics suggest that Brown's Gothic sensibility expresses deep anxieties about the inadequate social institutions of the nation.
Q. Which of the following is correct according to the passage?
(a) The Gothic novel is based on a surreal fantasy world.
(b) Brown studied psychotherapy in order to perfect his stories.
(c) Brown's stories depicted events in his personal life.
(d) There was insufficient evidence to prove critics right.

A mole is a small, thick-bodied mammal that searches for worms, insects and other food by digging tunnels with its sharp claws and powerful legs. It has a narrow, pointed nose, a wedge-shaped head, and large forelegs. Its front paws, which turn outward, have long, broad nails. Its front legs work like shovels, scooping out the earth. The mole's hind legs are short and powerful. The animal is almost blind, with tiny eyes that are shaded by overhanging fur or skin. A mole does not have external ears, but it hears well. A mole's home can be recognized by a cone-shaped mound of earth above it. This mound is much larger than the slightly raised roofs of the tunnels the animal makes when digging for food. Their diggings often spoil gardens and fields. Farmers set traps in the animals' tunnels.
Q. Which of the following is correct according to the passage?
(a) A mole has perfect vision.
(b) A mole's body is shaped like a cone.
(c) A mole lives underground.
(d) A mole survives on garden plants.
