一、Translate the following English passage into Chinese:（15 分）
The world-famous magazine the Economist recently commented on the TPP, the
Trans-Pacific Partnership, tying together 12 countries, and praised it as the most
important free-trade agreement in years. It will be the largest regional trade deal ever,
with its members accounting for nearly 40% of the world economy. According to the
Economist, the countries that lead the negotiations seek to set a new standard for what
trade agreements must entail. They are taking on the morass of regulations, such as
local-content rules determining how much a product must be made from local inputs. In
addition, the Peterson Institute for International Economics also reckons the TPP will
enlarge the economies of the twelve member states by $285 billion by 2025. Despite
many challenges and potential flaws, if completed, the TPP, the biggest trade deal in
years, benefits the new Pacific trade zone, and also a good news for the world.
二、Translate the following Chinese passage into English:（15 分）

大學校園內與校園週邊的盜版問題，以及鼓勵醫藥業創新的措施。臺美雙邊亦同意

畫方面的最新進展，特別提到了臺灣在亞太經合會（APEC）和世界貿易組織（WTO）

三、Short Essay Writing:（20 分）
Put into practice in July, 2015, Taiwan’s current basic wage, also known as
minimum wage, is NT$20,008 per month or NT$120 per hour, increasing approximately
3.8% from the previous year. To preserve the interest of Taiwan’s laborers, labor
representatives pledged to continue pushing for the establishment of formulas for future
wage raise. Industry leaders, on the other hand, worried that the raise would cost
businesses extra payroll expenses. Some experts believe that in the short term,
companies, particularly small businesses will struggle, and jobs will very possibly be
lost. In the long term, however, most of the additional wages will go straight back into
consumption, and eventually other jobs can be created. Express your views on this issue
in a short essay of 300 words.

請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題：
Automated Passport Control (APC) first rolled out for international travelers at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport in July
2013 and since then 23 other U.S. airports implemented the kiosks in their U.S. Customs and Border Protection
international arrivals areas. When the kiosks debuted in Chicago and a few months later at New York’s JFK
Airport, U.S. officials asserted they would slash average wait times by as much as 40%. They’ve appeared to deliver
on that promise at some airports while most have seen mediocre success.
At JFK airport the average wait time for international travelers to complete the two-step arrivals process, using the
kiosks and then showing the receipt travelers receive to a Customs Officer, is about 18.5 minutes so far this month
based on Customs data. That’s a 65.9% decrease from the 30.7-minute average wait time in March 2013 before the
kiosks launched at JFK and this puts JFK at the top of the leaderboard in terms of which airport can claim the most
success from the kiosks.

However, the improved overall monthly average wait time doesn’t mean JFK completely overcame its notoriously
long Customs wait times. For example, Delta Air Lines boasted that Customs wait times in its Terminal 4 arrivals
facility at JFK were reduced by 90% shortly after the kiosks became available in October 2013. But last week there
were still several instances of maximum wait times exceeding two hours in Terminal 4 and average wait times hovered
around one hour.
Only four of the 24 airports using the kiosks managed to reduce their average wait time this month by 40% or
more compared with March 2013 or 2014 (whichever date came before kiosks were implemented). After JFK,
Dallas/Forth Worth International Airport, Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport and Miami International
Airport reduced their average wait times by 51.6%, 45.9% and 40.4%, respectively, for this month compared to either
March 2013 or 2014.
The average wait times at some airports weren’t terrible to begin with before kiosks arrived--which could explain
why some terminals saw small percentage decreases, but still included excessive wait times of an hour or more in most
cases. Some of the airports, such as JFK, Orlando International Airport and Chicago O’Hare Airport, allow travelers
from the 38 visa waiver countries to use the kiosks while many, including Phoenix Sky Harbor and Seattle-Tacoma
airports, only grant access to U.S. and Canadian citizens.
21 What is the purpose of this passage?
To argue for the use of airport kiosks.
To discredit the implementations of airport kiosks.
To present a performance review of airport kiosks.
To inform readers about the technology behind airport kiosks.
22 Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the first paragraph?
The success rate of using APC is not as high as expected.
Customs kiosks are dramatically reducing fly time in airplanes.
APC kiosks have been proven to enhance the visibility of U.S. airports.
A high percentage of U.S. airports choose not to join the APC program.
23 According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about JFK Airport?
The average wait time has been reduced after the installations of kiosks.
Overall, JFK Airport passengers waited an average of 31 minutes in 2013.
Most travelers submit their Customs declaration form via the kiosks.
No APC machines were available at the airport until the year of 2014.
24 What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
Not every traveler to the U.S. is eligible to use APC.
Long wait times would discourage travelers from using certain airports.
Airports with the kiosks may not have them installed at all terminals.
Airports in the U.S. are gearing up to cater for increasing passenger footfall.
25 What will the paragraph following the last one above most likely discuss?
When is the best time to travel. Why more APC kiosks are needed.
Where to find the best APC kiosks supplier. How to go through customs faster.
