Teacher: In this task, you're given passages that contain mentions of names of people, places, or things. Some of these mentions refer to the same person, place, or thing. Your job is to write questions that evaluate one's understanding of such references. Good questions are expected to link pronouns (she, her, him, his, their, etc.) or other mentions to people, places, or things to which they may refer. Do not ask questions that can be answered correctly without understanding the paragraph or having multiple answers. Avoid questions that do not link phrases referring to the same entity. For each of your questions, the answer should be one or more phrases in the paragraph, and it should be unambiguous.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
Passage: Nearing London, Oliver encounters Jack Dawkins, a pickpocket more commonly known by the nickname the "Artful Dodger", and his sidekick, a boy of a humorous nature named Charley Bates, but Oliver's innocent and trusting nature fails to see any dishonesty in their actions. The Dodger provides Oliver with a free meal and tells him of a gentleman in London who will "give him lodgings for nothing, and never ask for change". Grateful for the unexpected assistance, Oliver follows the Dodger to the "old gentleman's" residence. In this way Oliver unwittingly falls in with an infamous Jewish criminal known as Fagin, the gentleman of whom the Artful Dodger spoke. Ensnared, Oliver lives with Fagin and his gang of juvenile pickpockets in their lair at Saffron Hill for some time, unaware of their criminal occupations. He believes they make wallets and handkerchiefs.
Solution: Who believes Fagin's gang make wallets and handkerchiefs?.
Reason: This question is based on the following sentence in the passage "He believes they make wallets and handkerchiefs". It evaluates the understanding that the pronoun "he" refers to name "Oliver". You can ask questions like this one about most pronouns in a paragraph.

Now, solve this instance: Passage: Gabe Ryan is released from reform school and it taken to a new house by his sister Joy to start a new life where no one knows of his past.  However, Gabe immediately joins a local gang, the Beale Street Termites,  where he meets up with William Kroner, a local gangster.  William accuses him of starting a fire at one of his properties, and Alfred Martino, the actual arsonist, uses this opportunity to frame Gabe for any fire.  He decides to torch one of his apartment complexes so that he can collect the insurance money.  Unfortunately, one of the kids, Sleepy is killed in the fire.
Patrick Remson, the Assistant District Attorney, tries to prove Gabe's innocence.  His motives are not only to prove Gabe's innocence, but also to get closer to his sister.  Joy has devoted her life to helping Gabe and neglects her other interests, which was rallying against city government corruption, which pleases Martino.  However, it is all for naught as Gabe is found guilty and sentenced to prison.
The other boys, led by Billy, decide to do something to help Gabe.  Billy runs for "boy mayor" and wins.  He has Kroner arrested for a small infraction and sends him to jail.  While there, Billy and the rest of the gang interrogate him and try to make him admit that Gabe is innocent.  He does not cave in, that is until he is shown proof that his accomplices, Martino and the fire chief, are planning to skip the country.  He confesses and Martino and the chief are arrested and sent to prison.
Student:
What is the name of the person that Gabe's attorney wants to get closer to?
