A. BEGUN-BY

C. AFTER
| 60,105 |
The relationship between the event 'stressed' (Zeng's emphasis) and the event 'growth' can be described as B. INCLUDES.
Explanation:
- Stressing the importance of geological survey work implies that this effort was considered crucial for addressing or mitigating resource shortages.
- The fact that Zeng emphasized the need for such work indicates that his efforts were integral to achieving economic growth and alleviating the challenges posed by resource scarcity.
Therefore, when we consider the inclusion of stress and growth in our analysis, we see that the stress was foundational to the growth process, making "INCLUDES" the correct option.

The relationship between "said" and "fell" is B. SIMULTANEOUS.
Explanation:
"Said" indicates that something was previously known or reported before the action took place. In this case, the government officials mentioned (Education Minister Zhou Ji) have already made public statements about incidents involving children falling ill due to food contamination in schools. Therefore, these two events are simultaneous occurrences without any prior mention of one occurring before the other.

A. BEFORE
B. IDENTITY
C. AFTER
| 61,878 |
The relationship between "confessed" and "reported" is C. AFTER.
Explanation:
- Confession typically refers to someone admitting to committing an act or statement.
- Reporting involves sharing information about what has happened.
- In this case, the woman who confessed her intention to bomb the hotel was reporting the incident to the authorities after she had already carried it out.
Therefore, "confessed" comes before "reported," making option A (BEFORE) incorrect.

A. BEGUN-BY
B. SIMULTANEOUS
C. IMMEDIATELY BEFORE
| 93,728 |
To determine the relationship between the event 'holding' and the time 'Nov. 21, 2006', let's break down the information provided:
1. **Event**: Holding a forum or gathering in Gansu.
2. **Time**: November 21, 2006.
From this, we can infer two key points:
- The event occurred on November 21, 2006.
- The forum held at Gansu should be understood as taking place during the month of November.
Now, let's analyze each option:
**Option A: BEGUN-BY**
This means that the event preceded the time. However, since the forum was held on November 21, 2006, which happened after the year 2006, it doesn't make sense for the event to be before the time.
**Option B: SIMULTANEOUS**
This indicates simultaneous occurrence, but since the forum was held on November 21, 2006, it wouldn’t logically follow that the event took place simultaneously with the time.
**Option C: IMMEDIATELY BEFORE**
This suggests that the event came immediately before the time. Given that the forum was held on November 21, 2006, and assuming the forum had been planned and prepared for, it would make more sense for the event to occur right after the time rather than being simultaneous with it.
Therefore, based on the logical sequence and timing of events, the most appropriate relationship is **C. IMMEDIATELY BEFORE**.

The relationship between the event "meeting" and the time "Nov. 5, 2006" is A. AFTER.
Explanation:
- The event of an ambassador meeting a minister typically occurs after the minister has been invited to meet with the ambassador.
- Therefore, if Masha Allah Shakeri made an invitation to Qwen's meeting with Qwen, it would be after her meeting with Qwen.
- If Qwen were to make the invitation, it would happen before their meeting, making the event "meeting" occur before "Nov. 5, 2006".

TOKYO -- Tokyo stocks nosedived Monday on heavy selling by foreign investors, sending the key Nikkei stock index to a two- month low below the 16,000 mark.

A. BEGUN-BY
B. BEFORE
C. SIMULTANEOUS
| 92,909 |
The relationship between "losing" and "end" in this context can be understood through the following sequence:
1. The event of losing points (losing) refers to a decrease in value or price.
2. The event of ending (end) typically implies reaching a certain point or level.
In this case:
- Losing 365. 79 points means the stock fell from an initial high to a lower point.
- Ending at 15, 725. 94 indicates that the market reached a specific financial milestone.
Thus, the phrase "the 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average lost 365. 79 points, or ended at 15, 725. 94, the lowest finish since Sept. 26" logically connects these two events, showing that the stock's value dropped significantly before it reached the final closing point.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. BEGUN-BY.

| 97,656 |
The relationship between "made" and the time "Nov. 26, 2006" is B. BEFORE.
This can be explained as follows:
- "Made" indicates that the action or information was done before it occurred.
- The date "Nov. 26, 2006" specifies a specific day when an event took place.
- Therefore, the time "Nov. 26, 2006" precedes the event "made."
In this case, making the phone call to Olmert on Saturday was done before the deal was signed and Olmert accepted the offer of cease-fire, which happened on November 26, 2006.

| 94,021 |
The relationship between "ignored" and "said" can be described as:
D. IDENTITY
Explanation:
- "Ignored" implies that something was not done or not performed.
- "Said" indicates that someone made a statement about what should or should not be done.
Given these definitions, ignoring an action is often seen as the opposite of saying it should or should not happen. Therefore, when one says "Lu Xinyuan, chief of the environmental supervision bureau of the State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA), said that some large state-owned companies and listed companies ignored environmental rules and local governments disregarded initiatives to rectify their performance," it reflects a contradiction where the person making the statement (Lu Xinyuan) is doing something that should or shouldn't be done but is instead doing nothing at all. This directly aligns with the concept of identity, which refers to the act itself rather than the recipient of the action.

B. SIMULTANEOUS
C. IMMEDIATELY BEFORE

The correct answer is A. AFTER.
In this scenario, "granted" (the act of providing financial assistance) precedes "granting" (the process of making the loan). The information provided indicates that CDB initially started supporting urgent demands through short-term loans but later extended these loans after experiencing major emergencies or sudden growth in demand. Therefore, the sequence is: initial grant of loans → subsequent extension of loans → completion of funding for emergencies.

The relationship between "expires" and "Dec 13, 2005" is **AFTER**.
This can be explained as follows:
- The event described (monitoring developments after the deadline) occurred on December 13, 2005.
- "Expires" implies that this monitoring period has ended or reached its conclusion.
- Therefore, if the monitoring period was ongoing from January 1, 2005 to December 13, 2005, then it would have expired by December 13, 2005.
Thus, the relationship is "AFTER."

In this scenario, the statement "the Williams sisters did not breach a 2001 contract for an unplayed tennis tournament because the promise to play was a letter signed by their father" ended with the lawyer's assertion that neither the Williams sisters nor the tennis stars were aware of what their father had done. This implies that the end of the statement marks the conclusion of the legal discussion about the breach of the contract, rather than the beginning or continuation of any ongoing conversation or activity related to the events described. Therefore, ending the statement signifies that the lawyer has reached a decision or conclusion regarding the situation, making it clear that awareness ("aware") ends the discussion and the event (mentioned as "said").

Question: He also reiterated that his country will continue to adhere to the one-China policy. Tang also expressed appreciation on Romania for its consistent adherence to the one-China policy and its support to the great cause of reunifying the country. What is the relationship between the event 'reiterated' and the event 'adhere'?
A. IS-INCLUDED
B. AFTER
C. BEFORE
| 74,119 |
The relationship between "reiterated" and "adhere" is B. AFTER.
Explanation:
- "Reiterated" implies that something has been previously stated or done again, usually with more emphasis or detail.
- "Adhere" means to follow or support someone's position or principles.
- The act of repeating something already committed (reiterated) typically follows an action taken (adherent).
- Therefore, adhering to the one-China policy (which was described as "consistent") would logically precede reiterating it, making the relationship B. AFTER.

Question: Our ultimate goal remains to find a city with the best chance to win internationally." What is the relationship between the event 'remains' and the event 'win'?
A. AFTER
B. IDENTITY
C. INCLUDES
| 78,064 |
The relationship between "remains" and "win" can be described as an **INCLUSION** or **CONTAINS** relationship.
Here's why:
- "Remains" implies that something continues or persists for a certain period of time.
- "Win" refers to achieving success or being successful in some way.
When we say "the event 'remains', " it means that whatever was initially happening (or winning) continues or persists indefinitely. This aligns with the concept of "containment," where one thing contains another. In this case, the "event 'remains'" is the condition that allows the "event 'win'" to occur.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. AFTER.

A. IS_INCLUDED
B. ENDED-BY
C. IS-INCLUDED
| 5,154 |
The relationship between "flashes" (likely referring to news or media coverage) and "A few hours" can be best described as:
**A. IS INCLUDED**
This choice accurately reflects that the information provided about General Likulia Bolongo's appointment to Prime Minister comes from recent news reports, which are included in the flash of events. The time frame ("A few hours") indicates when this information was first reported, but it does not imply that the flash itself is part of an ongoing process or timeline.
Therefore, the correct answer is **A. IS INCLUDED**, making "IS_INCLUDED" incorrect.

This can be explained as follows:
- The war described refers to a conflict that occurred from July 1978 to August 1978, specifically involving Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
- Therefore, the war began on July 1978, not the war itself.
In summary, the war began on July 1978, while the war mentioned in the question took place later in the same year.

The relationship between "lost" and "depleting" can be best described as:

This term refers to an action or condition that occurs simultaneously with another event, often implying a temporal sequence where one process precedes or follows another. In this case, losing (the first) and depleting (the second) both refer to events occurring at the same time, indicating a sequential process of loss affecting a player's performance.
Therefore, the correct answer is **DURING**, which means it happens during or after the other event.

The relationship between "warned" and "Tuesday" is C. IS INCLUDED.
To explain this in detail:
- The statement "New Zealand Associate Foreign Minister Simon Upton warned Tuesday" indicates that a warning was issued on Tuesday.
- The phrase "they would be taking action" suggests that the warning was followed by some form of action or response.
- However, the question asks about the timing of the warning itself, not its immediate impact or consequences.
Therefore, the key information provided ("warned") does not specify when it occurred (immediately before or immediately after), only that it happened on Tuesday. Hence, the correct answer is C. IS INCLUDED.

This relationship indicates that the number of male smokers fell significantly (from 28% to 22%) after the year 1993. The subsequent increase in obesity rates (from 13.2% in 1993 to 23.6% in 2004) further supports this conclusion. Therefore, the event "smoking" occurred after the year 1993, making the answer **C.

The relationship between "recorded" and "Nov. 10, 2006" is **AFTER**.
Here's why:
- "Recorded" typically refers to an event that has occurred after a specific date or period.
- In this case, it indicates that the event happened on November 10, 2006.
- Therefore, the phrase "recorded" should be interpreted as referring to the event occurring after November 10, 2006, not before.
