In the past, cell phones were big and heavy. In the future, telephones will still be big. The good news is that people will be able to fold them in half to make them smaller. The "foldable phone" is now in development.One company has come up with a smartphone and tablet in one. This device can fold down to the size of a regular cellphone to make it "pocket-size." The foldable phone has a larger screen, keyboard, and high-quality speakers. This makes easy to use. The flexible display can go from smartphone to tablet just by unfolding it. The interior screen is so big that it can run three different apps at the same time. People can watch a video, talk about it, and browse websites online. There are also two batteries inside the phone - one on each side. Many companies have been looking for ways to improve smartphones. The foldable phone is unlike anything else that has come before it. This powerful machine is a smartphone, computer, and camera all in one. There is a current race to get foldable phones on the market. But we'll have to wait and see how well these new smartphones work. If people like them, maybe one day we will be able to fold and even stretch our phone.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

The evening would have been more enjoyable if all the extraneous activities had been dropped from the program

There have been many famous detectives in literature. But one of the first-and certainly the most famous is Sherlock Holmes. Holmes was created by the British writer Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle in the late nineteenth century. Sherlock Holmes made his first appearance in the work A Study in Scarlet, which was
published in 1887. Holmes instantly became a popular literary figure with the general populace, who demanded that Doyle write more stories involving him. Doyle compiled and eventually wound up writing fifty-six short stories and four novels that featured Holmes.
While he took a break of several years from creating stories about Holmes, Doyle continued to write Holmes stories until 1927. Among the most famous of all the works featuring Holmes are The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Blue Carbuncle, and A Scandal in Bohemia.
One of the reasons that Sherlock Holmes was so popular concerns the method he employs to solve his cases: logic. Together with his partner, Dr. Watson, Holmes uses his powers of observation to detect clues that can help him solve the cases he accepts. Holmes has an
incredibly sharp mind that enables him to determine who the guilty party is or what the problem is. Holmes also is a master of disguise, which he proves many times, and he is skilled at boxing as well as sword fighting.While Holmes often solves cases that are unrelated to one another, he has a nemesis with whom he comes into both direct and indirect conflict in several stories. That person is Professor Moriarty, the leader of a crime ring in London. In one of the stories, The Final
Problem, Holmes and Moriarty fight one another and fall to their deaths by plunging down a steep cliff near a waterfall. When he wrote that story, Doyle had tired of Holmes and wanted to kill off the character. He then refrained from writing about Holmes for many years but public
demand for more detective stories induced him to bring Holmes back from the dead and to continue writing.
