    If 1st June is a Friday and the school reopens on 12th June, we can count the number of days between these two dates. There are 11 days between 1st and 12th June. Since there are 7 days in a week, we can divide 11 by 7 and find that there is a remainder of 4 days. Adding this remainder to the starting day (Friday), we can determine the day of reopening. Counting 4 days after Friday, we arrive at Tuesday as the day of reopening.

Higher speeds also make it more difficult for drivers to judge distances accurately, increasing the likelihood of collisions with other vehicles or objects on the road. Additionally, higher speeds amplify the severity of accidents, making injuries more severe and fatalities more likely.

    Correct Answer
    A. Anyone can get access to the bank account and take away all the money.
    Explanation
    If passwords and ATM PINs are not kept confidential, anyone can easily gain access to the bank account and steal all the money. This is because passwords and PINs serve as security measures to protect personal financial information and prevent unauthorized access. If these confidential codes are known by others, they can easily impersonate the account holder and carry out fraudulent transactions, resulting in the loss of funds. Therefore, it is crucial to keep passwords and PINs confidential to ensure the safety and security of one's bank account.
