Until the late 1700s, the economy of England was tightly controlled by the government, which limited
the amount of interest that banks could charge, laid down rules about how employers should treat their
workers, and set strict standards for how some products should be made. The government set up trade
monopolies, giving certain companies the sole right to trade with certain parts of the world, like the English
East India Company. 11 Then in the late 1700s, Adam Smith published a book called The Wealth of
Nations, which advocated “laissez-faire,” meaning “to let alone” in French. 12 He said individuals
should be let alone to make their own economic decisions—what products to make, how to make them, and
what to charge for them. 13 People would be motivated by the opportunity to try new ideas and make
more money. Society, as a result, would become wealthier.
After Smith’s book was published, the idea of laissez-faire became more and more popular. 14 The
new freedom to invent and invest helped spur the Industrial Revolution, creating, as Adam Smith had
predicted, vast new wealth.
But it also created the harsh conditions some employers maintained in the factories. These employers
were believers in laissez-faire. 15 They say it was none of the government’s business how much their
workers were paid or how many hours a day they worked. For obvious reasons, the idea of laissez-faire was
more popular among employers than among their workers.
11 They fought against laws that would make things better for workers.
In the book Smith argued government controls were hurting the economy.
This economic freedom, he believed, would make people more creative and hard-working.
To protect English manufacturers, the government set high tariffs on goods imported from foreign
countries.

Just as a passport represents national sovereignty—it is one of the defining categories of a claim to
statehood—so harmonizing passports is a sign of cooperation. That can be a slow process. It took the nine
members of the-then European Community (now the 27-strong European Union) years to settle on the color
of the passport cover that its member states now share. In 1976, a year after a uniform passport was first
proposed, Britain shuddered at the suggested shade of delicate lilac. Diplomats then spent four years
dismissing maroon and then purple before reaching a wine-colored consensus in 1981.
America’s first passport cover, in 1918, was beige, going green three years later. It changed to various
shades of red in 1926 and back to green in 1941. Only on the bicentenary in 1976 did it turn blue, matching
the shade in the American flag.
The common color was supposed to make European passports instantly recognizable. But since colors
cannot be patented, nothing stops others with the same idea. Some countries that hoped to join the EU
quickly adopted the right color of passport as a branding exercise. In South America the Andean Community,
which once had EU-like aspirations, also favors wine-colored passports. Mercosur and Caricom, two other
regional groupings, favor an American-style dark blue.
Countries commonly pick colors that reflect their culture or religion, says Claire Burrows of De La Rue,
a British company that has been making passports since 1915. Islamic countries often have green passport
covers (though Germany’s passport used to be that color, as are those of members of the Economic
Community of West African States). According to Bill Waldron of Holliston, a Tennessee-based firm that
prints documents for 65 of the world’s 249 passport-issuing entities, darker colors are popular because they
show dirt less, heighten the contrast with the crest and look more official—much as police wear dark
uniforms.
Interpol—one of a handful of international organizations with passport-issuing powers—provides
evidence for that theory: its new travel document is black. The UN’s passport, like the helmets of its
peacekeeping force, is a pacific blue.
Fun-colored passports exist too. But they can sometimes seem a punishment: Sweden and the
Netherlands issue emergency travel documents for nationals who have lost their passports. They are pink.
16 According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
In 1918, the passport color was beige in the US.
In 1930, the US used burgundy covers for their passports.
From 1941 to 1976, US travelers were issued burgundy passports.
The color of US passport changed to blue as its 200th anniversary was marked.
17 Which of the following countries use the same color for their passports?
Peru and the US. The UK and Saudi Arabia.
Spain and Nigeria. Liberia and Pakistan.
18 Which of the followings about the meanings of passport colors is NOT mentioned in the passage?
Representing their culture. Emphasizing their national sovereignty.
Reflecting their religion. Matching their national flag.
19 According to the passage, why do passports normally come in dark shades?
To show patriotism and respect their own history.
To coordinate with passports of other countries.
To look formal in the international arena.
To fit in with the multicultural world.
20 What does the word “Interpol” possibly refer to?
International Criminal Police Organization. Andean Community of Nations.
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation. Petroleum Exporting Country Organization.

請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題
When contemporary women writers write about mother-daughter relationships, they often put an
emphasis on forging a connection between them. In their writing, even though mothers and daughters do
have ambivalence toward each other, they are often capable of resolving this problem and finally recognizing
their bond as mothers and daughters. Yet, when it comes to writing about mother-son relationships, it
becomes a completely different story. Most women writers stress the alienation between mothers and sons
owing to the fact that they are of different gender. Therefore, when women writers write about their
experiences of raising sons, they usually find themselves crossing over into a different territory. Feelings of
apprehension and distress arise when mothers discover to their astonishment that their sons have become a
total stranger to them especially when the sons have stepped into adulthood. In addition, since mothers are
constrained by the society at large to avoid being too close to their sons in fear that they might smother their
sons, contemporary women writers have depicted mostly the separation between them but have also unveiled
how mothers come to terms with this separation from their sons.
Take the two contemporary novels, Margaret Forster’s Mothers’ Boys and Rosellen Brown’s Before and
After, as examples. With a common theme on mother-son relationships, both novels portray a similar
incident of a son who is suspected of committing a murder and how this unexpected event has profoundly
harmed the mother-son relationships. Coincidently, both novels have an identical scene with a mother-son
encounter in a juvenile prison. In this confrontation between mothers and sons, mothers have to their
bewilderment come to realize that their sons have become unknown to them. And as these mother-son
narratives continue to develop, the mothers and sons in these novels finally separate from each other. The
only difference between these novels is their contrast in treating the mother-son relationship. Forster presents
the mother as the one who takes up her traditional role by accepting passively this separation from son and
waiting patiently until the son returns one day whereas Brown describes a mother who exercises her agency
and power to deal with her son’s act of crime. Later, she not only fulfills her social responsibility as a mother
but also decides her way of handling the mother-son separation. Despite that the two texts illustrate two
conflicting ways of reading and writing mother-son relationships, they also inform us that there exists a
powerful reading and writing against the grain.
21 Which field of study is most closely related to this passage?
Human Resources. Social Work.
Human Rights. Women’s Studies.
22 According to the passage, which of the following statements is true abou t th e mother-son relationship?
Mothers find it hard to discipline their sons.
Sons express less filial piety to their mo thers.
Mothers sense great indifference from their sons.
Sons have strong anxiety over being mothers’ boys.
23 Why is the mother-son separation a prevailing theme in contemporary women’s writing?
Because mothers are advised to disconnect with their sons.
Because mothers feel obligated to attach themselves to their sons.
Because sons desire to strike a link with their mothers.
Because sons demonstrate resentment against their mothers.
24 How does Brown portray a mother who seems to be more compelling than that of Forster?
She makes a mother more dominant by monitoring everything her son does.
She allows a mother to work out the mother-son relationship on her own terms.
She enables a mother to embrace her selfhood by acting as a professional woman.
She creates a mother who knows how to rely on her knowledge to mold her son.
25 What is the actual meaning of the concluding sentence, “there exists a powerful reading and writing
against the grain”?
It indicates that motherhood can be manipulative and nurturing.
It denotes that the social control of motherhood is severe and unexpected.
It argues that mothers have the authority to treat their children differently.
It illustrates that the act of mothering can go beyond the traditional script.
