CAT Question of the Day
Before the arrival of J. K. Rowling, Britain's bestselling author was comic fantasy writer Terry Pratchett. His Discworld books, beginning with The Colour of Magic in 1983, satirise and parody common fantasy literature conventions. Pratchett is repeatedly asked if he "got" his idea for his magic college, the Unseen University, from Harry Potter's Hogwarts, or if the young wizard Ponder Stibbons, who has dark hair and glasses, was inspired by Harry Potter. Both in fact predate Rowling's work by several years; Pratchett jokingly claims that yes he did steal them, though "I of course used a time machine." The BBC and other British news agencies have emphasised a supposed rivalry between Pratchett and Rowling, but Pratchett has said on record that, while he doesn't put Rowling on a pedestal, he doesn't consider her a bad writer, nor does he envy her success. 

What can be concluded about Pratchett and Rowling's relationship from the passage?
OPTIONS
 
 1)They mutually respect each other and repeatedly laud each other's work.
 2)They don't know that the other person exists.
 3)Pratchett is envious of Rowling's success and wishes he could've seen the same.
 4)Pratchett and Rowling may not personally know each other, and there is officially no bad blood between them despite Rowling robbing Pratchett of his "bestselling author" title.
 5)Pratchett and Rowling are really close friends and allies.
Tip of the Day
As a part of your personal interview preparation, spend time articulating your strengths and weaknesses- at least three each. Then think about 2 instances or events where you displayed each of these.
