一、英譯中：請將以下文章譯為中文（20 分）
Middle power diplomacy is a concept in the international relations literature that
applies to states that, due to either their material and financial capabilities or their
political culture and leadership, contribute actively to conflict resolution, peacekeeping,
or official development assistance. It is often described as acting as a “good citizen” of
the international community: more involved than smaller states in international affairs,
but also more compromising and multilateral in focus than the great powers.
The Republic of China (ROC), like most small states, is significantly influenced by
the actions of larger states and thus reliant on multilateral cooperation to ensure its own
security. Moreover, the ROC continues to find itself in an historically complicated and
often tense geopolitical position where larger states’ spheres of influence overlap,
especially those of China and the United States.
It is questionable, therefore, whether middle powers like the ROC can always play
a truly independent role and will not ultimately be tempted to side with one great power
or another. It might be more meaningful to identify middle powers by their effects on
mediation and diplomacy and their leadership’s attitudes rather than quantifying their
financial or material capabilities.
二、英文作文（30 分）
題目：“Beyond Economy and Democracy”
Now as a diplomat, write an article for an international journal to persuade other
nations that the ROC, in addition to being exemplary in free economy and democracy,
has much more to contribute to the global community. Your article should be well
structured with at least three paragraphs: an introduction, a body and a conclusion.

Despite progress in society’s understanding of death and dying, thorny issues remain. For example, a woman at
the age of 87, 10 from the nervous-system disorder of Parkinson’s disease, has a massive stroke and is found
unconscious by her family. Their choices are to put her in a nursing home 11 she dies or send her to a medical
center for diagnosis and possible treatment. The family opts for a teaching hospital in New York City. Tests show the
woman’s stroke 12 a blood clot but is curable with surgery. After the 13 , she says to her family: “Why did
you bring me back to this agony?” Her health continues to worsen, and two years later she dies.

Chimpanzees are capable of sharing feelings and emotions. They show emotions that are undoubtedly similar,
14 , to human emotions—joy, pleasure, contentment, anxiety, fear and rage. They even have a sense of humor. The
chimpanzee child and human child are 15 in many ways: in their capacity for endless romping and fun; their
curiosity; their ability to learn by observation, imitation and practice; and, 16 , in their need for reassurance and
love. When young chimpanzees are brought up in human homes and treated like human children, they learn to do many
things young human children learn to do at home.

After losing his law-firm job, Michael Bliss, 40, gave the bank the keys to the house he was unable to afford and
moved back in with his parents. His mother thought her “son” was back, but Michael thought he was living with a
“roommate.” She felt bad because he wouldn’t say hello when he walked in the door. At the same time, he felt she was
checking up on him and lurking around.
Michael Bliss is an example of “boomeranger.” The term boomerang children used to refer to young adults
moving back in with their parents, and now the economic recession is forcing people in their 30s and 40s to bunk in
with their parents until they regain their financial footing. Since the recession began in December 2007, 3.6 million
Americans have lost their jobs. In 2008 a third of retirees have had to help their children pay bills. And the number of
multigenerational households has increased from 5 million in 2000 to 6.2 million in 2008. Wounded pride and general
anxiety about the global economic crisis are inevitable, but there are ways to ease the situation.
Brian Carpenter, a psychology professor, suggests that parents and children should have their own space in a
house to build in privacy. He also suggests that children should share household expenses and take over chores like
mowing the lawn. In this way, no one feels taken advantage of. Also, it is important to discuss one another’s needs.
Failure to do so can lead to a lot of friction. Most importantly, there needs to be a bit of give and take from both sides
to create a warm and cozy family.
17 What does the term “boomeranger” mean?
Young adults who lose their jobs.
People who were born in the 30s or 40s.
Grownups who move back to their parents’ houses.
Children who tend to have a quarrel with their parents.
18 Why did Michael’s mother feel upset?
Her son invaded her privacy. Her son treated her as a stranger.
Her son brought a roommate. Her son asked her for money.
19 According to the passage, what should Michael Bliss do next?
Get a job and move out. Take advantage of his parents.
Ask his mother to treat him well. Communicate with his mother.
20 What is the last paragraph mainly about?
Generation gap between parents and children. The importance of a warm and cozy family.
Advice to multigenerational families. A famous psychology professor.

請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題
My class in Brazil was scheduled from 10 until noon. Many students came late, some very late. Several arrived
after 10:30. A few showed up closer to 11. Two came after that. All of the latecomers wore the relaxed smiles that I
came, later, to enjoy. Each one said hello, and although a few apologized briefly, none seemed terribly concerned about
their being late. They assumed that I understood.
Back home in California, I never need to look at a clock to know when the class hour is ending. The shuffling of
books is accompanied by strained expressions that say plaintively, “I’m starving….I’ve got to go to the
bathroom….I’m going to suffocate if you keep us one more second.” (The pain usually becomes unbearable at two
minutes to the hour in undergraduate classes and five minutes before the close of graduate classes.)
When noon arrived in my first Brazilian class, only a few students left immediately. Others slowly drifted out
during the next 15 minutes, and some continued asking me questions long after that. When several remaining students
kicked off their shoes at 12:30, I went into my own “starving/bathroom/suffocation” routine.
21 According to the passage, how did the Brazilian students feel about going to class late?
They were very ashamed of themselves.
They were very unhappy about being late.
They had no particular feelings about being late.
They kept apologizing to their teacher.
22 How does the speaker know when the class hour is ending in California?
By reading his watch.
By reading the class clock.
By reading his students’ expressions.
By reading the books.
23 What word is closest in meaning to “strained” in the second paragraph?
Exaggerating Uneasy Amiable Natural
24 What did the Brazilian students do in the speaker’s first Brazilian class when class time was over?
Many left the classroom at 11:45 a.m.
Only a few stayed after class.
They all left the classroom immediately.
Many stayed and some kept asking questions till 12:30 p.m.
25 What can best describe the speaker’s observation in the passage?
Brazilians have a very different cultural concept of time.
Brazilian college students do not respect their teachers.
American college students tend to be practical and punctual.
Students in both America and Brazil do not care about study seriously.
