Here is a question I have often asked at dinner parties:

   You're on an island with only one other person, your best friend. He's dying of cancer. In his final days, he tells you, "I have 100,000 dollars in a bank back home. When I die, make sure my son goes to medical school." Then he dies. But his son is a no-good playboy who has no interest in going to medical school and will waste that money away in a very short time. But your son is entering college, and he is willing to become a doctor. Which one do you give the money to for medical school?

   I've asked this question of everyone from the president of a famous university to an ordinary young soldier, and it has never failed to get a discussion going. Everyone has an opinion, most of them different, but all of them correct. Sometimes this one topic lasts the whole evening.

Which of the following is TRUE to the passage?

   A. Only the clever people can answer the question rightly.

   B. Some people refuse to answer such a silly question.

   C. Everyone at the dinner party seems to be interested in the question.

   D. Most of the people have the same answer.

What the writer often says at dinner parties is _______.

   A. not a true story                  B. a true story

   C. a strange story                   D. just a joke
