When someone says a kid is hyperactive, it can be a sign that the kid might have ADHD, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Kids with ADHD have problems paying attention and get easily. This concentration problem strongly influences their life in a negative way, at school in . Some might have trouble sitting still in class and waiting for their turn. When they do, they daydream because they cannot follow what the teacher says for a long time. When they are asked a question by the teacher, they jump at the and generally shout out the answer before other kids raise their hands. Your kid may have similar problems, but it does not mean he or she has ADHD. On the other hand, symptoms of ADHD can be mistaken for emotional or disciplinary problems or missed entirely in quiet, well-behaved children, leading to a delay in diagnosis. Therefore, if you observe such symptoms often, it might be a good idea to a doctor. A therapist can encourage the child with ADHD to the life changes that come with treatment, such as thinking before acting, or resisting the urge to take unnecessary risks.

Result:

A.I. Explanation:

Correct answer: distracted
Explanation: The word 'distracted' fits grammatically as it is the past participle form that describes the state of the kids in relation to their attention problems. It aligns contextually with the idea that kids with ADHD have difficulty focusing, thus they become easily distracted.
Meaning: 'Distracted' means unable to concentrate or focus on something because attention is diverted elsewhere.
Wrong options:
observant: 'Observant' means being quick to notice things, which is the opposite of being distracted and does not fit the context of attention problems.
obsessed: 'Obsessed' implies an excessive preoccupation with something, which does not relate to the inability to focus on tasks at hand.
addicted: 'Addicted' refers to a compulsive need for a substance or activity, which does not apply to the context of attention issues.
Correct answer: particular
Explanation: The word 'particular' is appropriate as it specifies a certain aspect of school life where concentration issues manifest. It fits grammatically as an adjective modifying 'way' and contextually indicates a specific situation in which problems arise.
Meaning: 'Particular' means specific or distinct, highlighting that the concentration problem affects kids in a specific manner at school.
Wrong options:
order: 'Order' refers to a sequence or arrangement, which does not relate to the context of how concentration problems affect kids.
addition: 'Addition' implies something being added, which does not fit the context of describing a specific situation in school.
case: 'Case' is too vague and does not convey the specific nature of the problems faced by kids with ADHD.
Correct answer: tend to
Explanation: The phrase 'tend to' fits grammatically as it indicates a habitual action and aligns contextually with the behavior of kids who often daydream when they cannot focus on the teacher's instructions.
Meaning: 'Tend to' means to have a tendency to do something, indicating that kids often daydream under certain circumstances.
Wrong options:
get down to: The phrase 'get down to' implies starting to do something seriously, which does not fit the context of daydreaming.
get around to: 'Get around to' suggests eventually doing something after a delay, which does not apply to the act of daydreaming.
stick to: 'Stick to' means to adhere to something, which contradicts the idea of daydreaming as it implies focus rather than distraction.
Correct answer: chance
Explanation: The word 'chance' fits grammatically as a noun indicating an opportunity, and contextually it aligns with the idea that kids react quickly when given an opportunity to answer questions.
Meaning: 'Chance' means an opportunity or possibility, indicating that kids jump at the opportunity to answer questions.
Wrong options:

Meaning: 'Consult' means to seek advice or information from someone, particularly a professional like a doctor.
Wrong options:
treat: 'Treat' implies providing medical care, which is not the appropriate action to take when observing symptoms without diagnosis.
apply: 'Apply' means to put something into operation, which does not fit the context of seeking advice about symptoms.
commit: 'Commit' implies dedicating oneself to a course of action, which does not align with the context of seeking professional help.
Correct answer: to adjust
Explanation: The phrase 'to adjust' fits grammatically as it indicates the purpose of the encouragement, and contextually it aligns with the idea of helping the child adapt to changes brought by treatment.
Meaning: 'To adjust' means to adapt or modify oneself to new conditions, indicating the process of adapting to life changes due to treatment.
Wrong options:
adjust: 'Adjust' as a bare infinitive does not fit the grammatical structure required here, which needs the infinitive form with 'to.'
