“For me, all cases are equal,” Judge Elena Lala said. She acknowledged that one plaintiff in particular seemed to be turning up in her courtroom in Focasani, Romania, quit frequently. That would be Sandu Gurguiatu, who filed dozens of lawsuits over the past four years because he’d become smitten with the judge and could think of no better way to keep seeing her since she’s married. Gurguiatu often lost, but he did win a few - among them an order forcing his employer to provide towels and enough soap for the washroom at work - before finally realizing that he was wasting the court’s time as well as his own.

Mr. Gurguiatu’s reason for going to court was ________.

Today a marshmallow is a spongy treat cooked over campfires. But up until the mid-1800s, marshmallow candy was used medicinally. Doctors extracted juice from the roots of the marshmallow plant and cooked it with egg whites and sugar, then whipped it into a foamy meringue. The mixture then hardened, and the resulting candy soothed children’s sore throats. Eventually, advanced manufacturing processes replaced the root juice with gelatin, which eliminated any healing properties.

The underlined word in the paragraph refers to the ________.

George O’key was wandering through a public park, in Middlesbrough, England, when he decided to stop and read the plaque on its old war memorial. It was an unsettling experience. There, he found his own name on the honor roll of local Britons who’d died in World War II. Oh, O’key had served in a British uniform all right, but he’d returned home from the war safely. So? “I went straight to the park manager’s office.” he told the journalists. “I said, ‘I just want you to know I’m still alive.’” The name on the roll, he added, should be that of his brother, Fredrick. The matter is now before the Middlesbrough Council, which has promised to correct the mistake.
