Cp files into a directory

No, you don't need your own etc directory, you should again get rid of it: /etc is a top-system-level directory where control files are kept, like hosts (the other machines on your network that your machine knows about) and group (a list of groups of users used for permissions and other things)
The original exercise was to copy files from /etc (top level dir) into ~/test (subdirectory to your home directory).
If you did succeed with hosts and groups, you succeeded - not every machine has a /etc/motd file, and on ubuntu it's even more complex and may purposely not be there, for arcane reasons. (How did he know I was running ubuntu?)
