When her five daughters were young, Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity (團結). To show this, she held up one chopstick, rePsenting one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, rePsenting a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.

Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.

Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."

Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.

60. Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ______.

A. the strength of family unity B. the difficulty of growing up

C. the advantage of chopsticks D. the best way of giving a lesson

61. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family ______.

A. started a business in 1975 B. left Vietnam without much money

C. bought a restaurant in San Francisco D. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles

62. What can we infer about the An daughters?

A. They did not finish their college education.

B. They could not bear to work in the family business.

C. They were influenced by what Helene taught them.

D. They were troubled by disagreement among family members.

63. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. How to Run a Corporation B. Strength Comes from Peace

C. How to Achieve a Big Dream D. Family Unity Builds Success

As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.

In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.

In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夾). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互記憶)"

According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

64. The passage begins with two questions to ______.

A. introduce the main topic B. show the author's altitude

C. describe how to use the Interne. D. explain how to store information

65. What can we learn about the first experiment?

A. The Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.

B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.

C. The first group did not try to remember the information.

D. The second group did not understand the information.

66. In transactive memory, people ______.

A. keep the information in mind B. change the quantity of information

C. organize information like a computer D. remember how to find the information

67. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?

A. We are using memory differently. B. We are becoming more intelligent.

C. We have poorer memories than before. D. We need a better way to access information.

D

There are an extremely large number of ants worldwide. Each inpidual (個體的) ant hardly weigh anything, but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles. For animals their size, ants have been astonishingly successful, largely due to their wonderful social behavior.

In colonies (群體) that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear pision of labor. Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization. Where we use sound and sight to communicate, ants depend primarily on pheromone (外激素), chemicals sent out by inpiduals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an inpidual ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to Ppare for a conflict as a defense unit.

In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will readily take on a creature much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and overcoming their target. Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.

Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner, these little creatures have survived on Earth, for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a collective (集體的) intelligence greater than you would expect from its inpidual parts.

68. We can learn from the passage that ants are ____________.

A. not willing to share food B. not found around the poles

C. more successful than all other animals D. too many to achieve any level of organization

69. Ants can use pheromones for______.

A. escape B. communication C. warning enemies D. arranging labor

70. What does the underlined exPssion "take on" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Accept. B. Employ. C. Play with. D. Fight against.

71. Which of the following contributes most to the survival of ants?

A. Their behavior. B. Their size. C. Their number. D. Their weight

E

Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat?and when and how we eat them?are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural (農村的) and urban areas within one country.

Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion (時刻) or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition hits its roots in the custom of sharing bread.

Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread rePsent blocks of gold for prosperity (興旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (預示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.

Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to rePsent family unity.

Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.

72. According to the passage, sharing bread______.

A. indicates a lack of food B. can help to develop unity

C. is a custom unique to rural areas D. has its roots in birthday celebrations

73. What does the coin in vasilopita signify for its receiver in the New Year?

A. Trust. B. Success. C. Health. D. Togetherness.

74. The author explains the role of food in celebrations by______.

A. using examples B. making comparisons

C. analyzing causes D. describing processes

75. What is the passage mainly about?

A. The custom of sharing food. B. The specific meaning of food.

C. The role of food in ceremonies. D. The importance of food in culture.

第四部分 寫作 (共兩節，滿分35分)

第一節任務型讀寫(共10小題;每小題1分，滿分10分)

閱讀下面短文，根據所讀內容在表格中的空白處填入恰當的單詞。注意：每個空格只填一個單詞。

Pup a group of strangers in a room together, and they'll probably start a conversation. "Hot today, isn't it?" one might say. "You said it." another replies.

Why do we talk so much about the weather? When we meet new people, we don't begin by telling them our life story. We start with small talk, a polite conversation about something like traffic or weather.

Research suggests that small talk can build new friendships. When we begin conversations with new people, we want to feel comfortable, and so do they. We use small talk to find common interests. Once we have a common interest, a friendship can begin.

Small talk even helps people get hired. In order to imPss at a job interview, you need to bond with the interviewer right away. Proper small talk can make that first imPssion get you the job.

So, how can you make small talk lead to a new friendship or job? First off, find common ground. Select something around you that you share with the other person.

Next, keep the conversation going. Compliment (贊美) the other person to make him or her feel comfortable, and ask questions to show interest.

Third, keep eye contact (接觸). When you look people in the eye, they feel you apPciate what they are saying. It makes you appear honest and builds trust.

Naturally, shy people might not have enough confidence to start up conversations with strangers. Talking to someone you don't know is not the easiest thing to do! Some experts say with more practice, small talk does get easier.

Some people avoid small talk because they dislike discussing things like traffic or weather. For them, they are just too small. However, when you think about it, small talk is anything but small. In fact, it is actually a very big deal!

A Famous Chinese I Would Like to Interview

The person I would like to interview is Yang Liwei.

I would really like to interview him because he is not only the first Chinese to go to space but also one of the greatest astronauts in the world. I have long been interested in space exploration and I believe I could learn a great deal from him about it.

If I could interview him, I would ask him what made him an astronaut and how he was trained. I would also like to know how he felt in space and whether space travel is such great fun as I have read. Finally, I would like to ask a few questions about his personal life, which must be very interesting.
