一、將下列英文翻譯成中文。（20 分）
Diaspora, literally “to sow or scatter,” is historically specific to the forcible
expulsion of Jewish people from Babylon, and it is often associated with a sense of loss
as well as a longing to return to a homeland. Israel is the archetype practitioner of
diaspora diplomacy, given that under Judaism all those people who believe in that faith
are automatically endowed with a “right of return to Israel.” The global Jewish
community mobilizes itself in favor of Israel, with political, material, and moral support.
In the United States the Jewish lobby is a strong political force, which also dominates
the media and large segments of business. This factor conditions the US position on the
Arab-Israel issue, which in the eyes of many undermines US credibility in the Islamic
world. From the perspective of diaspora diplomacy, Israel enjoys privileges that are not
available to other states, because they cannot mobilize a similar degree of political
support.
二、將下列中文翻譯成英文。（30 分）

Human behavior is the very manifestation of the individual’s method of adjusting to his environment. In the study
of human behavior, there are three prevailing theories, each stressing the impact of a particular aspect. The most recent
of the three is the social learning theory which states that all behavior is the result of conditioning. Another theory, the
psychoanalytical theory, depicts man at the mercy of his unconscious thoughts and motives. The third theory, the
oldest of the three, the physiological theory, advocates the importance of heredity and physical characteristics in
behavior development.
According to the physiological theory, some people are mainly “digestion-minded,” some are “muscle-minded,”
and some “brain-minded,” and correspondingly digestion-bodied, muscle-bodied, or brain-bodied. The
digestion-bodied people look thick; the muscle-bodied people look wide, and the brain-bodied people look long. For
the third kind of people, it does not mean that the taller a man is the brainier he will be. Instead, it means that if a man,
even a short man, looks long rather than wide or thick, he will often be concerned about what on his mind than about
what he does or what he eats; but the key factor is slenderness and not weight. On the other hand, a man wh o gives the
impression of being thicker, rather than long or wide, will usually be more interested in a good steak than in a good
idea or a good long walk.
If a man is definitely a thick type, rather than a broad or long type, he is likely to be round and soft, with a big
chest but a bigger belly. He would rather eat than breathe comfortably. People of this kind like other people, they are
easygoing, and their feelings are easy to understand. In contrast, if a man is definitely a broad type rather than a thick
or long type, he is likely to have lots of muscle. Such people would rather breathe than eat. They go in for adventure,
exercise, fighting and getting the upper hand. They love to master the people and things around them. As for people of
the third type, they are likely to have thin bones and muscles. Though such people are jumpy, they like to keep their
energy and don’t fancy moving around much. They would rather sit quietly by themselves, and keep out of difficulties.
Trouble upsets them, and they run away from it. They would easily become anxious, and they don’t get along well with
other people in the sociable and aggressive world.
16 What is the main idea of this passage?
People can not be judged by their appearance.
Don’t judge people by their appearance.
People can be judged by their appearance.
No one has the right to judge people by their appearance.
17 According to the passage, which of the following theories emphasizes the thoughts and motives of human kind?
the social learning theory the psychoanalytical theory
the physiological theory the cognitive theory
18 According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
The environment influences people’s behavior.
People’s behavior influences the environment.
The environment and people’s behavior influence each other.
People’s behavior has nothing to do with the environment.
19 According to the passage, which type of people are most suitable to be life guards?
thick type broad type long type thin type
20 According to the passage, which of the following characteristic is suitable to describe the long type?
easy-going sociable anxious greedy

Getting a grip—literally—can boost your memory, according to a new study. Here’s how it works: If you are
right-handed, clench your right fist before taking in new information that you want to remember; then clench y our left
fist when you want to remember it later. If you are left-handed, do the opposite. This strange trick may work because
clenching your hands activates the side of the brain that handles memory.
To test this idea, researchers led by Ruth Propper of Montclair State University in New Jersey studied 50
right-handed college students. The students were divided into five groups. Each participant was given a list of 36
words to remember and a small pink ball to clench.
One group clenched the ball twice for 45 seconds each with their right hands before memorizing the words. Then
they did the same with their left hands before writing down as many words as they could remember. Another group
performed the same task but reversed the order of the fists they made. Two other groups used the same hand each time,
one group using the left and the other, the right. A final group didn’t clench the ball at all but held it gently in both
bands each time.
The group that started with the right hand performed the best on the memory test. In doing so, they activated the
left side of their brains, which helps store memory, and then clenched their left hand, activating the right side of the
brain as they recalled the information. The findings suggest that some simple body movements—by temporarily
changing the way the brain functions—can improve memory.
The study also found that the two left hand groups, whether there was right hand clenching afterwards,
demonstrated significantly poorer memory than the other three groups. This shows that it is primarily the hemisphere
active at taking in information that predominantly influences memory ability.
21 What is the main idea of this passage?
Physical exercise is good to one’s memory.
The two hemispheres of the brain function differently.
Fist clenching may influence the way the brain functions.
Right-handed and left-handed people differ in their memory power.
22 What is the most likely profession of Ruth Propper?
A logician. A psychologist. A photographer. A geologist.
23 What does “it” in the first paragraph refer to?
Your memory. Getting a Grip. A new study. Your fist.
24 Which of the following statements is true about the study?
All the participants were required to clench the pink ball.
The participants included both right-handed and left-handed students.
The group that held the ball in both hands performed worse than the other groups.
The group that started with the right hand outperformed all other groups.
25 If you are left-handed, which of the following should you do when you are giving a prepared speech?
Clench your left fist. Clench your right fist.
Clench both your fists. Clench neither of your fists.
