Avoid answers that are incorrect or provides incomplete justification for the question. Example: Passage: The French and Indian War (1754–1763) was the North American theater of the worldwide Seven Years' War. The war was fought between the colonies of British America and New France, with both sides supported by military units from their parent countries of Great Britain and France, as well as Native American allies. At the start of the war, the French North American colonies had a population of roughly 60,000 European settlers, compared with 2 million in the British North American colonies. The outnumbered French particularly depended on the Indians. Long in conflict, the metropole nations declared war on each other in 1756, escalating the war from a regional affair into an intercontinental conflict. Question: When was the French and Indian War? Example solution: 1754-1763 Example explanation: It is a common convention to write (start year-end year) beside a historical event to understand when the event happened. We can observe a similar notation from the passage to conclude that the French and Indian War happened during 1754–1763. Therefore, the answer is 1754–1763. Problem: Passage: Blair announced in September 2006 that he would quit as leader within the year, though he had been under pressure to quit earlier than May 2007 in order to get a new leader in place before the May elections which were expected to be disastrous for Labour. In the event, the party did lose power in Scotland to a minority Scottish National Party government at the 2007 elections and, shortly after this, Blair resigned as Prime Minister and was replaced by his Chancellor, Gordon Brown. Although the party experienced a brief rise in the polls after this, its popularity soon slumped to its lowest level since the days of Michael Foot. During May 2008, Labour suffered heavy defeats in the London mayoral election, local elections and the loss in the Crewe and Nantwich by-election, culminating in the party registering its worst ever opinion poll result since records began in 1943, of 23%, with many citing Brown's leadership as a key factor. Membership of the party also reached a low ebb, falling to 156,205 by the end of 2009: over 40 per cent of the 405,000 peak reached in 1997 and thought to be the lowest total since the party was founded. Question: What was the party membership at the end of 2009?
answer:The party membership at the end of 2009 was 156,205.

OK. solve this: Passage: The Canadian constitution determines that the Commander-in-Chief of the Canadian Armed Forces is the country's sovereign, who, since 1904, has authorized his or her viceroy, the governor general, to exercise the duties ascribed to the post of Commander-in-Chief and to hold the associated title since 1905. All troop deployment and disposition orders, including declarations of war, fall within the royal prerogative and are issued as Orders in Council, which must be signed by either the monarch or governor general. Under the Westminster system's parliamentary customs and practices, however, the monarch and viceroy must generally follow the advice of his or her ministers in Cabinet, including the prime minister and minister of national defence, who are accountable to the elected House of Commons. Question: Who does the Commander-in-Chief authorize to make decision regarding the Armed Forces for them? Answer:
answer:The Commander-in-Chief authorizes the governor general to make decisions regarding the Armed Forces for them.

Now, solve this: Passage: Advanced economies led global economic growth prior to the financial crisis with "emerging" and "developing" economies lagging behind. The crisis completely overturned this relationship. The International Monetary Fund found that "advanced" economies accounted for only 31% of global GDP while emerging and developing economies accounted for 69% of global GDP from 2007 to 2014. In the tables, the names of emergent economies are shown in boldface type, while the names of developed economies are in Roman (regular) type. Question: How much global GDP did "advanced" economies account for from 2007 to 2014? Solution:
answer:Sure, I'm happy to help! Here's the answer to the question based on the information provided in the passage: From 2007 to 2014, "advanced" economies accounted for 31% of global GDP. Here's the explanation: Based on the information provided in the passage, we can see that the International Monetary Fund found that "advanced" economies accounted for only 31% of global GDP from 2007 to 2014. This information can be found in the second sentence of the passage, where it states that "advanced economies accounted for only 31% of global GDP while emerging and developing economies accounted for 69% of global GDP from 2007 to 2014." Therefore, the answer to the question is 31%.

A predominant deity was during this jubilee driven around in a noisy procession on a ship on wheels. The winter would be driven out, to make sure that fertility could return in spring. A central figure was possibly the fertility goddess Nerthus. Also there are some indications that the effigy of Nerthus or Freyr was placed on a ship with wheels and accompanied by a procession of people in animal disguise and men in women's clothes. Aboard the ship would the marriage of a man and woman be consummated as a fertility ritual. Question: How would the marriage of a man and woman on the ship serve as a fertility ritual? be consummated Passage: The only words of Jesus on the cross in the Mark and Matthew accounts, this is a quotation of Psalm 22. Since other verses of the same Psalm are cited in the crucifixion accounts, it is often considered a literary and theological creation. Geza Vermes, however, points out that the verse is cited in Aramaic rather than the Hebrew in which it usually would have been recited, and suggests that by the time of Jesus, this phrase had become a proverbial saying in common usage. Compared to the accounts in the other Gospels, which he describes as 'theologically correct and reassuring', he considers this phrase 'unexpected, disquieting and in consequence more probable'. He describes it as bearing 'all the appearances of a genuine cry'. Raymond Brown likewise comments that he finds 'no persuasive argument against attributing to the Jesus of Mark/Matt the literal sentiment of feeling forsaken expressed in the Psalm quote'. Question: What contradiction is found in this Psalm? verse is cited in Aramaic rather than the Hebrew Passage: In practice, not all rule violations will result in a disqualification as the referee may use their own judgement and is not obligated to stop the match. Usually, the only offenses that the referee will see and immediately disqualify the match on (as opposed to having multiple offenses) are low blows, weapon usage, interference, or assaulting the referee. In WWE, a referee must see the violation with their own eyes to rule that the match end in a disqualification (simply watching the video tape is not usually enough) and the referee's ruling is almost always final, although Dusty finishes (named after, and made famous by, Dusty Rhodes) will often result in the referee's decision being overturned. It is not uncommon for the referees themselves to get knocked out during a match, which is commonly referred to by the term "ref bump". While the referee remains "unconscious", wrestlers are free to violate rules until the referee is revived or replaced. In some cases, a referee might disqualify a person under the presumption that it was that wrestler who knocked them out; most referee knockouts are arranged to allow a wrestler, usually a heel, to gain an advantage. For example, a wrestler may get whipped into a referee at a slower speed, knocking the ref down for short amount of time; during that interim period, one wrestler may pin their opponent for a three-count and would have won the match but for the referee being down (sometimes, another referee will sprint to the ring from backstage to attempt to make the count, but by then, the other wrestler has had enough time to kick-out on their own accord). Question: What can wrestlers do when a ref is out?
answer:Sure, I'd be happy to help! Here are the answers to the three questions: 1. How would the marriage of a man and woman on the ship serve as a fertility ritual? Based on the passage, the marriage of a man and woman on the ship would serve as a fertility ritual because it was believed that the union of the male and female deities (possibly Nerthus and Freyr) was necessary to ensure fertility in the coming year. The procession and the placement of the effigy of Nerthus or Freyr on a ship with wheels, accompanied by people in animal disguise and men in women's clothes, further reinforced the idea of fertility and the return of the goddess Nerthus. 2. What contradiction is found in this Psalm? According to the passage, the contradiction found in this Psalm is that it is cited in Aramaic rather than the Hebrew in which it would have been recited. This is considered a contradiction because the other verses of the same Psalm are cited in Hebrew in the other Gospel accounts. 3. What can wrestlers do when a ref is out? When a referee is knocked out, wrestlers can take advantage of the situation to violate rules and gain an advantage. For example, a wrestler may pin their opponent for a three-count while the referee is down, even if the opponent has not actually been pinned. In some cases, another referee may sprint to the ring from backstage to attempt to make the count, but by then, the other wrestler may have had enough time to kick out on their own accord.
