第一篇: 
Sun Moon Lake is the largest lake in Taiwan, and is comprised of the diamond-shaped Sun Lake and curved 
Moon Lake. The Thao people call it “zintun” which may have been the earliest name   31   to Sun Moon Lake. The 
earliest   32   of the name “Sun Moon Lake” was in the article, “Travels to Shueilishe”, written by Deng Chuan-an 
in 1821, which said, “I have no idea   33   the water comes from. It is about 10 li (half a kilometer) in length, and a 
third of that in width. The water is red and green, so it is named Sun Moon Lake.” After the Han people came to 
reclaim the  Shuishalian land,  Sun Moon  Lake was  given more  names,   34   Shuishe Large  Lake, Shuili  Lake, 
Shuilishe Lake, Shuishehaizih, Bamboo Lake, and Dragon Lake and so on. In the  late Cing Dynasty, the western 
missionaries came to Sun Moon Lake to share their   35   with the Thao people. They named Sun Moon Lake 
“Dragon Lake”, “Lake Candidius”, and “Nin-Isivatan Lake”.

第二篇: 
Companies around the world are fervently vying for first place in the race to vehicular autonomy, and now it looks 
like one venture has crossed the finish line. A self-driving taxi has successfully taken passengers through the busy 
streets of Tokyo in a   36   of what could be a fully-fledged service by the time the Olympic Games arrive in the 
city in 2020. 
Tokyo-based autonomous driving tech company ZMP, in   37   with cab firm Hinomaru Kotsu, say they’re the first 
in the world to offer autonomous taxi services to fare-paying passengers. The trial, which is ongoing, sees a sensor-equipped 
minivan make four round-trips a day between Tokyo’s districts. Passengers unlock the taxi door and make   38   through 
a smartphone app, and while a driver and assistant are on board during the tests for   39   purposes, the trial has so far 
gone  off  without  a   40 .  Japan’s  streets  are  no  strangers  to  self-driving  taxis,  though.  Nissan  began  testing  its 
autonomous cab service back in March, with similar aspirations to having a full service in place come the Olympics. 
ZMP’s initiative follows recent news that Toyota plans to  invest $500 million into Uber’s self-driving efforts. 
Uber’s  autonomous  driving  venture  suffered  a  major  setback  earlier  when  one  of  its  self-driving  vans  killed  a 
pedestrian during a trial in Arizona. But despite general concerns surrounding the safety of autonomous cars, people in 
Tokyo have been largely enthusiastic about the taxi venture, with 1,500 people signing up to take part in the trials.

四、閱讀測驗【請在下列各題中選出最適當的答案】 
第一篇: 
Only two whaling companies remain in Iceland. It’s a small industry that conservationists say is inhumane, has 
minimal  economic  benefits,  and  defies  the  international  ban  on  killing  whales.  But  the  Icelandic  government 
announced it will allow up to 2,000 whales to be killed in the next five years. 
A Ministry of Fisheries and Agriculture statement said a maximum of 209 fin whales and 217 minke whales can 
be killed each year between 2018 and 2025.Iceland’s Fisheries Minister said the new whale quotas are sustainable and 
based on research from the nation’s Marine Research Institute and the University of Iceland. 
But activists and conservationists disagree. The Icelandic Environmental Association  criticized the research on 
which the Fisheries Ministry based its quotas. And Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC), an organization aimed at 
protecting  whales  around  the  world,  said  whaling  is  no  longer  beneficial  to  Iceland’s  economy  and  lacks  public 
support. 
A report from the University of Iceland said whale watching contributed $13.4 million to the economy, while the 
whale hunting company Hval hf. Contributed $8.4 million. According to the report, more people are employed in 
whale watching than in whaling, but wages are higher in whale hunting. WDC argues that instead of relying upon its 
own science, Iceland needs to listen to worldwide calls to stop whaling. 
【2】41. What is the policy of Iceland government on whale hunting? 
 Stop whale hunting because it’s no longer economical. 
 Allow more whale killings for the years to come. 
 Meet the demands of conservation groups. 
 Entrust universities to do more scientific researches. 
 
【1】42. How many whaling companies are there in Iceland? 
 Two.   More than 20.   209.   Five. 
【4】43. Which is true about whale watching and whale hunting in Iceland? 
 Whale watching lacks popular support. 
 Whale hunting contributed $13.4 million to the economy. 
 Wages for whale watching are higher. 
 More people are hired in whale watching than in whaling. 
【3】44. What did the Ministry of Fisheries and Agriculture statement say? 
 Whaling is inhumane. 
 The new whaling quotas are based on WDC researches. 
 A maximum of 209 fin whales can be killed each year. 
 New whaling quotas are not sustainable. 
【1】45. What is the stance of the activists and conservationists? 
 Iceland needs to listen to worldwide calls to stop whaling. 
 Wages are higher in whale hunting than whale watching. 
 Whaling is still beneficial to Iceland’s economy. 
 Killing whales is legal and beneficial to Iceland’s economy. 
第二篇: 
Our world is changing quickly. We cannot expect the material we learn in a professional discipline to remain 
relevant for the rest of our career. Just look at the hi-tech industry: most of the technical skills needed today were not 
part of engineering school curriculums a few years ago. Technology and artificial intelligence are also rapidly making 
certain routine human enterprises obsolete. A successful university education must therefore provide students with 
fundamental skills and help them learn on their own and adapt to evolving circumstances. 
What are these fundamentals? Language skills, including comprehension, expression and communication, will 
always be needed. Quantitative skills, such as the ability to analyze a problem, see hidden patterns, identify relevant 
variables and formulate solutions, are crucial to many jobs in society. 
In the past, we emphasized computational techniques and demanded that our students calculate answers quickly 
and accurately. But such technical tasks are being taken over by machines. Many traditional science courses require 
students to memorize chemical structures, chemical pathways or names of organisms. If we need such information, we 
search the internet and find the answers within seconds. 
A good university education should train a student as a person, to broaden their mind and horizons, to allow them 
to see the relationships of apparently disparate phenomena, to acquire knowledge independently and to develop the 
confidence to challenge authority. These are the qualities that will make them leaders of the future. Such training 
requires a very different set-up from the current discipline-specific, narrowly focused subject learning that was popular 
in the old days. 
【3】46. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? 
 The down side of the hi-tech industry 
 Why future leaders are hard to find 
 The purpose of a university education 
 How machines are taking over our education 
【1】47. In paragraph 1, why does the author mention the hi-tech industry? 
 To illustrate the point that what we learn in school might not be useful after a few years 
 To show how the hi-tech industry is developing rapidly 
 To emphasize the importance of accurate calculation and computer skills   
 To contrast with the old idea that a university education is only useful for a small number of people 
【2】48. Which of the following is NOT a fundamental skill? 
 The ability to think critically and reason logically 
 The ability to memorize the elements in the periodic table 
 The ability to interact and communicate effectively with others 
 The ability to work out solutions to real life problems   
【4】49. Which of the following statements will the author most likely agree with? 
 Out future leaders will probably be robots. 
 Entering the hi-tech industry should be the goal of university graduates. 
 Professors should be required to promote school policies in class.   
 Students should not be trained only to do what the machines can do in seconds.   
【2】50. What will the paragraph following the passage most likely discuss? 
 Why the old ideas about university education have failed 
 What universities can do to help students acquire the fundamental skills 
 How artificial intelligence has made lots of jobs obsolete 
 Who can benefit the most from having good language skills
