Taiwan has the technological know-how to make a wide range of drones
from cheap, small suicide-drones like the ones used in Ukraine to more
complex reconnaissance drones that are customised to take off from
moving warships and withstand strong winds in the Taiwan Strait. Its main
problem is not technology, but scale. China controls 80% of the global
drone market, which means it can produce drones very cheaply. The non-
red drones Coretronic makes cost about 25% more than their equivalent in
China. Taiwan’s electronics manufacturers need more orders from abroad
so that they can scale up.

二、英文作文(30 分)
Unsafe drivers can be of any age, particularly when drinking is involved.
While younger drivers may be inexperienced or more likely to be
distracted or reckless, older drivers often overestimate their driving
abilities. That may be one reason many unsafe older drivers continue to
drive despite failing driving skills. Balancing public safety with seniors’
independence is a complex issue. For many older adults, driving is
essential for staying active, running errands, attending social events,
visiting loved ones, and maintaining control over their daily routines.
In your opinion, when should seniors stop driving, and who should make that
decision?
Write a short essay of approximately 250 words explaining your
perspective. Support your argument with clear reasoning, and if possible,
real-life examples.

People tell stories for various reasons. Some stories are told to entertain, while others aim to pass on
wisdom, knowledge, and morals to future generations. For young children, stories play a crucial role in
their lives. Not only do children learn about the world around them through stories but 21 , they build
up a foundation for future learning as well. Research has shown that there is a strong association between
children’s success in school and their experiences with storybooks and storytelling in their mother 22
from an early age. Children who 23 well on literacy tests tend to have stories read or told to them
before starting their formal education. In regard to the significance of stories in children's literacy
development, studies suggest that most of the new vocabulary children 24 in their school years are
acquired through stories they read or listen to. The value of stories, nevertheless, should not be limited to
language acquisition; stories can also bring gains in personal, emotional and learning development in
children 25 those in language.

ships’ defensive capacities. Vessels can hire armed security personnel to accompany them on voyages.
Or, an escort vessel can be hired to 27 dangerous shipping lanes. Because of the high risk and
expense 28 the latter service, it’s an option that would likely only be used by ships carrying rare or
most valuable commodities. In fact, many shipping firms choose to forego any additional security 29 ,
opting instead to simply pay the ransom should one of their vessels be hijacked. Unfortunately, 30 say,
doing so emboldens hijackers and encourages piracy.

If you are a person who cares about hygiene, you may have noticed little beads in exfoliating facial
scrubs and toothpaste. What you may not know is that these microbeads are actually balls of plastic that
are smaller than five millimeters in diameter. They were designed to be easily flushed down the drain.
However, because water treatment plants were not built to filter them out, microbeads are polluting rivers,
oceans, and lakes in a serious yet not immediately obvious way.
According to a study that was published in the scientific journal Environmental Science and
Technology in 2015, eight trillion microbeads were released into aquatic habitats daily in the US alone.
Since then, this estimate has continued to rise, contributing to the ever-growing global microplastic
problem. Microbeads aren’t biodegradable, which is bad news for both marine life and humans. The
microbeads function as sponges and end up attracting dangerous chemicals like pesticides. Some animals,
such as fish, cannot distinguish the beads from good and wind up eating them. In turn, these same animals
are then eaten by humans. As a result, these beads radically impact human health as they move from being

difficulttocleanup.Usingthem hasputusonasurefirepathtoharmingtheplanetswildlifeandwaterquality.
“Beat the Microbead” is an international campaign initiated in 2012 by the Plastic Soup Foundation
to raise the general public’s awareness about the environmental impact of microbeads. It has pressured
cosmetic companies to phase out the use of beads. It has even released an app that allows people to scan
the barcodes of products to see whether they contain microbeads. Identifying the complex names in an
ingredients list can be difficult for consumers. However, the best solution at hand is to ban the use of
microbeads outright and figure out a way to clean our oceans. Another way is to adopt natural alternatives
that are non-toxic and biodegradable to replace microbeads. Researchers of the study concluded, “The
probability of risk from microbead pollution is high, while the solution to this problem is simple.”
31 Which of the following sentences best expresses the main idea of the first paragraph?
Microbeads are contaminating waterways in a harmful manner.
Microbeads are appearing in the tap water people use every day.
Microbeads are a clever design to cleanse the pores and remove surface stains from teeth.
Microbeads are clogging up the bathroom drains and wastewater treatment systems.
32 Which of the following sentences best expresses the main idea of the second paragraph?

請依下文回答第 36 題至第 40
The impact of artificial intelligence on employment is a prominent topic, as highlighted by a sign
reading “Stop Hiring Humans” at an AI conference, reflecting the unease surrounding new AI models.
Artisan, a startup, exemplifies this shift by offering AI agents like Ava, virtual sales representatives that
can identify leads, contact customers, write emails, and schedule appointments, costing 96 percent less
than human equivalents.
This development is part of the generative AI trend that began with ChatGPT in 2022, where AI
increasingly makes decisions traditionally made by humans. While Artisan, one of the key players in this
field, is upfront about the possibility of AI replacing certain jobs, many other generative AI companies
take a more cautious stance. These companies argue that rather than replacing workers, AI will primarily
serve as a tool to enhance human capabilities, allowing individuals to perform their jobs more efficiently
and creatively.
Predictions regarding AI's impact varysignificantly. GoldmanSachs estimates 300 million potential job
losses globally. A Metrigy report indicated that 89 percent ofsurveyed firms reduced customer relations staff
due to generative AI. Conversely, the World Economic Forum foundthat 70 percent ofmajor companies plan
to hire workers with AI-related skills. This is seen by some as a “natural evolution,” with new sectors and
jobs being created while others are lost, similar to the impact of the car. US Department of Labor data shows
a decline in secretarial roles and a rise in computer scientists, coinciding with the rise of office computing.
Given the potential for displacement, some advise discretion when promoting AI that replaces parts
of a team, with some clients preferring to keep their AIusage confidential. Analysts predict joblosses for roles
like programmers, call center operators, translators, and travel agents. However, some startups argue thattheir
AI focuses on revenue growth, which can lead to more human jobs. Others note that while companies maynot
want to lay off staff, they are looking to grow without additional hiring. Transparency about AI's implications
is crucial to avoid public backlash, as the development of AI is considered bysome to be “inevitable.”
36 What is the writer’s purpose in the first paragraph?
To describe the financial advantages of using AI agents over human employees
To explain the technical capabilities of AI agents like Ava in sales-related tasks
To provide an example of a startup benefiting from AI by offering virtual sales representatives
To illustrate the growing concern about AI’s potential to replace human workers in the job market
37 What is the writer’s purpose in the second paragraph?
Toemphasizethepotential risks ofAI replacing human labor,specificallythrough Artisan’sexample
To provide contrasting viewpoints on whether AI will take over jobs or serve as a tool to assist
workers
To argue that AI will inevitably replace jobs in industries like sales and customer service
To provide a historical overview of how generative AI evolved, beginning with the launch of
ChatGPT
38 What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
Predictions about AI’s impact on jobs are consistent across different sources.
Predictions about AI’s impact on employment are mostly optimistic, with a focus on job creation.
AI is reshaping the job market in complex ways, leading to job losses and new opportunities.
AI will cause widespread job losses, especially in customer relations and secretarial roles.
39 What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?
While AI might lead to job reductions, it could also create new roles, and organizations must be
clear about its impact to manage public perception.
The growing use of AI technology is inevitable and should be embraced without concern for
potential job losses.
Companies should avoid using AI to replace human workers and focus only on enhancing current
staff roles.
The use of AI in the workplace is primarily beneficial for businesses looking to reduce staff and
expenses.
40 What is the writer’s tone toward the impact of AI on human jobs overall?
Praising Doubtful Objective Discouraging
