第一篇：
Wind energy is a clean fuel source. Wind energy doesn’t pollute the air like power plants that rely on burning of
fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas. Wind turbines don’t produce atmospheric emissions that 31 health problems
like asthma or create acid rain or greenhouse gases. In addition, wind power does not use water, 32 traditional
electricity sources. Producing nuclear, coal, or gas-fired power uses water for cooling. Water is becoming a scarce
resource 33 the country. Wind power uses no water in its energy generation.
34 the benefits, wind energy also faces some challenges. For example, good wind sites are often located in
remote locations, 35 cities where the electricity is needed. Transmission lines must be built to bring the electricity
from the wind farm to the city.

第二篇：
Scientists have discovered dozens of genetic variations that decide how tall we are, which can help us understand why
humans are so different from one another. The discovery could also lead to new treatments for growth disorders as well as
many other conditions 36 heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Professor Guillaume Lettre, of Montreal University in
Canada, said: “Of these 83 genetic variations, some influence adult height 37 more than two centimeters, which is
enormous.”
Height is mostly determined in our DNA—children from tall parents tend to grow up to be taller, and 38 from
short parents are shorter. But growth from a small baby into an adult, and the role of genetics, is one of the most poorly
understood areas of human biology. According to Professor Lettre, the identified genes will be helpful in 39 a
person’s risk of developing certain growth disorders. There is also the hope that scientists may 40 be able to use this
knowledge to develop a new medicine for growth disorders.

四、閱讀測驗【請依照段落上下文意，選出最適當的答案】
第一篇：
Research has shown that reality TV has an impact on the values of young girls and how they view real-life
situations. Reality television is a big part of our television viewing culture. It may be clear to many adults that not all is
real in the world of reality TV. However, how do children and adolescents understand the world of reality TV? What
could reality TV be teaching adolescent girls, in particular, about what is valued in the real world? And, how does it affect
their attitudes, beliefs, self-image, and behavior?
Many reality shows portray women idealizing beauty and thinness, giving the impression that a woman’s value is
based on her appearance, and that popularity is derived from beauty. Competition shows such as America’s Next Top
Model promote this ideal, as women compete with one another to gain a modeling contract that can help them make lots
of money.
Other common values emphasized by reality TV include materialism, and an idealization of a hard-partying and
celebrity lifestyle without regard for consequences. Both Rich Kids of Beverly Hills and Shahs of Sunset feature the lives
of privileged young adults living in southern California. They take expensive trips, wear designer clothes, spend a lot of
money on parties, and are rarely seen working regular jobs.
While reality TV seems to place emphasis on sex appeal, materialism, and hard-partying, it does not emphasize the
fact that many women on these shows are highly intelligent and successful in their real lives. For instance, Adrienne
Maloof, a former cast member on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, is a successful business woman as a co-owner of
several companies. However, it was her divorce and quarrels with other female cast members that were her main focus on
the show.

【2】41. What is the passage mainly about?
Why reality TV shows are so popular
How reality TV shows influence young people

To show how reality TV fails to emphasize intelligence and success of women in the shows
To provide an example of how reality TV promotes beauty and thinness
To illustrate the importance of wearing designer clothes in reality TV shows
To prove that successful women are often divorced and cannot get along with others
【3,4】43. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage as an impact on young girls’ values?
Increase of competitiveness
Improvement of social relationships
Overemphasis on appearance and beauty
Promotion of extravagant lifestyles
【1,4】44. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
The models in America’s Next Top Model are mostly pretty and thin.
The rich kids in Beverly Hills take part-time jobs to pay for their parties.
Many designers refuse to appear on reality TV shows.
Reality TV shows seldom show people working hard on regular jobs.
【2,4】45. According to the passage, who would more likely be affected by reality TV?
Male adults Female adolescents
Men in their 80s Ten-year-old girls
第二篇：
Are we naturally good? That is, are we more likely to act cooperatively, to help others even when it costs us? Or are
we, in our hearts, selfish creatures? A new set of studies provides data allowing us to analyze human nature through the
clear lens of science. These studies were carried out by a group of researchers interested in the essential question: whether
our first instinct is to act selfishly or cooperatively.
There are two processes that can explain our decisions and behaviors: intuition and reflection. Intuition is often
automatic and effortless, leading to actions that occur without looking into the reasons behind them. Reflection, on the
other hand, is all about conscious thought—identifying possible behaviors, considering the costs and benefits of possible
outcomes, and rationally deciding on a course of action.
To answer the question of whether selfishness or cooperation is the product of rational reflection, the researchers
first took advantage of a difference between intuition and reflection: intuitive processes operate quickly, whereas
reflective processes operate relatively slowly. The behavior people exhibit when they act quickly is likely to be the
intuitive response, and it is the response most likely to be consistent with basic human nature.
Experiments were done with a total of 834 people. Each experiment consisted of group-based financial
decision-making tasks and required people to choose between acting selfishly—to maximize individual benefits at the
cost of the group—or cooperatively—to maximize group benefits at the cost of the individual. The results were striking:
in every single experiment, faster—that is, more intuitive—decisions were associated with higher levels of cooperation,
whereas slower—that is, more reflective—decisions were associated with higher levels of selfishness. These results
suggest that our first impulse is to cooperate, and that we are fundamentally good creatures after all.
