Sociologists have long marveled at the degree to which the norms of the modern nation-state is imprinted upon the human
psyche by its pre-existing ideology, which has permeated individual’s thoughts, muscles, and morality. These norms are
then deconstructed and reconstructed into the optimal form 31 by the modern age. In this way individuals go
through their day with the expectation that everyone will 32 their generalized assumptions about how a “normal”
person will respond and behave. And so children habitually obey, anticipating the wishes of a parent or teacher, as well
as the 33 of the police officer, professor, shop-keeper, workplace supervisor, and tax collector. This generalized
anticipation becomes the shared common sense around 34 people are expected to orient their thoughts, behaviors,
and world views. Such common sense is often bounded by the modern nation-state; 35 in recent years, it has at

disappear under the weight of modernity.

How do you lose weight in the first place?—Mostly, through breathing. While the concept of “burning” fat is not
altogether wrong, losing fat involves plenty of carbon dioxide leaving your body. As the Washington Post explains:
Researchers found that to burn a pound of fat, a human needs to inhale about three pounds of oxygen and drink about a
pound of water. Water can exit the body in plenty of ways—poop, pee, sweat, saliva and any number of bodily fluids—
but your lungs handle the brunt of the weight loss.
Your fat “goes” into the atmosphere. (And no, it doesn’t contribute to global warming.) When it does go, you’re also
releasing the extra storage of vitamins and toxins along with it. That might not sound like a good thing, but in the long
run it’s far better to be rid of them. As Popular Science states, a kind of pesticides, among other pollutants, are known to
get bound up in fat—they leak into our food supply: Bodies don’t seem to store enough of these to become toxic, but the
constant build-up leaves you vulnerable to exposure. And they do start to re-emerge when you lose weight.
By losing weight at a healthy pace (1-2 pounds a week), the limited number of pollutants released will not overload your
bloodstream. Your urine will make quick work of them. Extreme dieting is a different story. The more weight you lose,
the more of these toxins enter your bloodstream.
Since we no longer face the same problem as our ancestors—most of us don’t have to worry about whether or not we’ll
eat tonight, or tomorrow—fat storage plays a different role in our bodies than previously. Many avoidable health
problems are due to this excessive storage of energy, hormones and toxins. Some researchers claim 70 percent of our
medical problems can be addressed through a healthier lifestyle, which includes eating better and moving more.
41 According to the passage, how do human beings lose weight primarily?
Through dieting. Through burning fat.
Through exercising. Through inhalation and exhalation.
42 Why did the author mention such things as “poop, pee, sweat, saliva, and any number of bodily fluids”?
To illustrate how water goes out of human body.
To explain how water is consumed by human body.
To demonstrate what water does to help humans exercise.
To indicate what bodily organs are related to the intake of water.
43 According to the passage, which of the followings can be considered an example of the "toxins"?
Fat. Vitamins. Pesticides. Atmosphere.
44 According to the passage, why is it NOT a good idea to lose weight extremely?
One may feel light-headed easily.
The bloodstream will be full of fat.
The bloodstream may become overloaded with pollutants.
One may instead intake much more food than one really needs.
45 According to the passage, how are we different from our old ancestors?
We store fats in different ways. We need not worry about food supply.
We are exposed to much more pollutants. We usually eat better and move more daily.

請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題
Two of the wealthiest African-American men in America live in Chicago, with its large African-American middle-
class community. Because both men are named Johnson, their names and businesses are sometimes each confused with
the other, aggravating both men. Each is justifiably proud of the business he has created for himself and the position it
gives him in African-American cultural, social, and business life.
George Johnson is the founder of Johnson Products Company, which manufactures cosmetics. The Johnson
Products Company is one of the largest African-American owned companies in the United States, and it is also one of
the most successful. Its founders and its corporate officers are proud of the company’s position. They also feel a certain
pride because the Johnson Products Company was among the first companies to realize that African-Americans in
America were a distinct market group, with distinct needs, and with the affluence to buy and support products aimed at
meeting their needs. The Johnson Products cosmetics are all designed for the needs of African-Americans.
John Johnson is the founder of Johnson Publishing Company, the largest African-American owned publishing
company in the nation. As an office boy at Supreme Life Insurance, Johnson was assigned to maintain a file of news
clippings about the achievements of African-Americans, and he noticed that there was no national newspaper or
magazine devoted to coverage of African-American news. He borrowed the printing equipment at the life insurance
offices, and he raised money for advertisements by mortgaging his mother’s furniture. He knew he was going to make it
when $6,000 worth of subscriptions poured in for his first issue. His monthly Negro Digest made him wealthy enough
to launch a second publication, Ebony, which was even more successful than his first. Ebony has one and a third million
subscribers. In fact, the company had been worth more than $60 million because the company has branched into real
estate, banking, and insurance. The officers and owners are proud that this success has come from serving the African-
American community, once again proving its power as a market. Life magazine, which Ebony followed in its use of large
photographs, has ceased publication, but Ebony keeps rolling off the presses every week. In a word, Johnson Publishing
Company is an iconic part of American and African American history .
46 What is the main idea of this passage?
To provide a short biography of two of the richest African-American men in America.
To discuss how John Johnson manages Johnson Publishing Company well.
To describe how George Johnson runs Johnson Product Company successfully.

47 According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
The Johnson Products Co. is one of the largest African-American companies in the U.S.
Ebony magazine provided John Johnson with the initial capital to start Negro Digest.
John Johnson started out as an office boy.
Ebony magazine has over a million subscribers.
48 What can be inferred from this passage?
Ebony imitated Life magazine in an attempt to appeal to White-American audiences.
The African-American population is not big enough to support a product aimed at them only.
Life magazine began to imitate Ebony in order to increase the number of its subscribers.
Both Johnsons believed there was a product market in the African-American community.
49 According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
Johnson Publishing Company publishes only books written by African-American authors.
The African-American market was mostly ignored prior to the Johnson's success.
Johnson Publishing Company is the third largest publishing house in the United States.
