almost all the women in Iceland took a day off to protest __(1)__ gender inequality. __(2)__ women taking the day off from all forms of work, Iceland’s men realized how important women’s work was. On that day, my father had to take me and my little sister to work with him because there was nowhere else for us to go. He gave me toys to have me __(3)__ my sister. That day had a big impact on Iceland. It didn’t eliminate all gender __(4)__, but it made everyone realize we needed to do better. Because of the Women’s Day Off, Iceland is now the country __(5)__ men and women are more equal than anywhere else. Therefore, we can thank Iceland for all our laws protecting women’s rights.

2. To Kill a Mockingbird examines life in the fictional town of Maycomb, Alabama, in the 1930s. In this town, __(1)__ two separate societies, the white world and the black world. Both are quite poor. __(2)__, the writer’s main interest is the differences that exist between these two societies.
The story focuses on a white family, including the lawyer Atticus Finch and his two children, and a black man, Tom Robinson, who has been charged with sexually assaulting a white woman. Although most of the evidence at Tom’s trial shows him to be innocent, the __(3)__ finds him guilty. They decide that Tom __(4)__.

3. MAYCOMB, AL—The verdict is in. Tom Robinson, a black man __(1)__ sexually attacking a local woman, Mayella Ewell, was found guilty late this afternoon. The jury announced their decision to the court, __(2)__that Robinson had attacked Ewell in her home. Atticus Finch, who served __(3)__ Robinson’s lawyer, expressed his disappointment with the decision. “I hope this doesn’t __(4)__ other members of the local black community __(4)__.” Finch continued, “I support Tom and I think an overwhelming* amount of the evidence does, too.” __(5)__, the jury was unanimous* in their judgment. Robinson was turned over to the state police and will begin serving his sentence immediately. The judge expressed his hope that the white and black communities in Maycomb could continue to live in peace and understanding. 註：overwhelming 壓倒性的 unanimous 一致的

4. Home to 360,000 people, Iceland guarantees the most equal treatment between men and women in the world. The path to equality began on October 24, 1975, __(1)__ 90% of the female population participated in the “Women’s Day Off.” Icelandic women dropped everything to protest __(2)__ wage inequality and gender injustices. Many places, including female-run schools and nurseries, closed down. Men had to __(3)__ their children or bring them to work. If it __(4)__ for this event, support for equality between men and women would probably not have taken off so quickly. In fact, one year later, a law was passed to end unfair treatment based on __(5)__ at work or in schools. Furthermore, Iceland elected the world’s first female president four years later. But Iceland still showed a big __(6)__ gap. Women were still __(7)__ only 64.15 percent of what men earned in 2015. __(8)__, two more strikes were organized, with women leaving work early. Iceland decided to __(9)__. It became the first country to demand that men and women __(10)__ equally. Companies must provide proof of equal pay or face fines. Iceland continues its path to a fairer society and acts as a role model for other nations to follow.

5. At the end of To Kill a Mockingbird, Tom Robinson is shot trying to escape from the police. He seemed to __(1)__ know that he would have great difficulty surviving in a southern prison. He was probably right.
Once convicted*, many black people in the South were sent to large farms or
plantations* that served __(2)__ prisons. The most __(3)__ of these was Parchman Farm, which opened in 1905. This particular farm was divided into three parts: one for white people, one for black women, and one for black men. When a black man discovered that Parchman was the place __(4)__ to function as his home during his sentence, he knew that he was in for a rough—perhaps dangerous—time. Men at Parchman were treated like slaves, forced to work extended hours picking cotton under the hot, southern sun.
Plantations like Parchman Farm were run by the state for profit. Therefore, production was more valuable than worker satisfaction. Men who entered such a facility __(5)__ often
later found themselves in pain and failing health. 註：convict 判……有罪；plantation 種植場

（ ）(5) (A) scaring off (B) coming over (C) holding their heads up (D) flying into a rage
6. All over the world, countries are trying to promote greater equality between women and men. Many countries are doing so with laws designed to increase __(1)__ equality. One well-known example is Iceland’s certificates to show that women __(2)__ equally for their work. Germany has a similar law that allows women to learn the average pay for men doing the same job. This way, they can make sure the company __(3)__ they work is paying women fairly.
Another area where equality can be improved is childcare. Mothers are more likely to bear this burden than fathers. Sweden has a law to ensure that fathers also __(4)__ their children. It gives each parent in a two-parent family 240 days off. One parent can give their days to the other, but only if they first take at least 90 days off themselves. If so, they can transfer the remaining days. __(5)__, that parent’s half of the leave is lost. Because of this system, Swedish fathers take about 30% of the childcare leave—not half, but much more than those in most other countries.

racially troubled times of the 1930s, it was written during the African American civil rights struggle of the 1950s and 1960s. Lee hoped her simple tale could __(1)__ public opinion during the sensitive times in which she lived and worked.
The character of Scout Finch is largely based on Lee’s own experiences of growing up in Monroeville, Alabama. In the same town, __(2)__ Truman Capote, another child who would later become an even more famous author than Lee. Lee’s father was also an attorney* and also defended a black man accused __(3)__ a crime similar to Tom Robinson’s in the novel. Much of the story is autobiographical and __(4)__ by someone who had lived through those challenging and disturbing times.
Lee __(5)__ for her book upon its publication. In fact, she won a Pulitzer Prize, and the 1962 film adaptation* received eight Academy Award nominations*. More importantly, the Civil Rights Act was passed in the United States in 1964, guaranteeing African Americans many significant rights and protections.

8. The Global Gender Gap Report ranks Iceland number one in the world for gender equality, but what is the Global Gender Gap Report? A project of the World Economic Forum, the report is an attempt to measure gender __(1)__ in countries around the world. To do this, each country receives a Gender Gap Index, a score based on four key areas:
education, economy, health, and politics. In a country __(2)__ there is perfect gender equality, this number would be 1. Less equality means a lower number.
Iceland’s index in the 2020 report was 0.877 __(3)__ Yemen, the lowest-ranked country, had an index of only 0.494. Yemen did not look very good __(4)__, but its 2020 score was an improvement on the first score it received in 2006. Actually, almost all countries have
improved over the fourteen years in which the report has been issued; __(5)__, there is reason to be hopeful. Although it’s clear we have a long way to go to reach the UN’s goal of gender equality by 2030, we are making some progress.

9. Iceland’s Women’s Day Off, held in 1975 on the first day of the UN’s Decade for Women, has since inspired women around the globe. On the decade’s closing day, the tenth __(1)__ of the Icelandic strike, women in 24 countries participated in Time Off for Women. This event was organized __(2)__ make people recognize all the work that women do.
Women do two thirds of all the work in the world, but much of it is unpaid __(3)__ work, like childcare. Today, such work is included in labor statistics, so we know that __(4)__ women do about two thirds of the world’s work, they receive only about one third of the world’s pay. __(5)__Time Off for Women, women would not now be getting the credit they deserve. More recently, the Global Women’s Strike brought women from around the world together. With each country __(6)__ unique problems, the strike does not set a single goal. Rather, women choose what is the most important goal in the place __(7)__ they live and exchange information. In large Internet conferences, everyone discusses what __(8)__ they can __(8)__ to deal with their country’s problems. Then, all the women __(9)__ on the same day. __(10)__, they receive international attention but can focus it where they choose. The idea is that when women work together, they can achieve great success.

an experience __(1)__ she learned many lessons. In a TED Talk delivered later that year, she told her story to encourage women to run in __(2)__ elections.
In the talk, Halla first described how in 1975 women in Iceland had __(3)__ to the streets in support of equal rights for women. Five years later, they elected the world’s first female president, and today Iceland is known __(4)__ being the fairest country for women. Still, Halla’s campaign for president was really __(5)__. She had less money than her opponents*, less presence in the media, and no party behind her. __(6)__, it seemed she had little chance of winning. The opinion polls* put other candidates* in the lead, __(7)__ only 2.5 percent of the people asked said they were going to vote for her. __(8)__ an effort to get more votes from young people, she used Facebook and Snapchat to speak to them. On the day __(9)__ the election results were announced, she did not expect to win. So when she came in second, she considered it a victory. At the end of the talk, she mentioned that without the support from her family and friends, she might never __(10)__ that well. Last, Halla urged women to run for office, no matter how difficult it may seem.

11. To Kill a Mockingbird is regarded as Harper Lee’s masterpiece. It is also one of the __(1)__ American novels ever written. Harper Lee has stated that the novel is not an autobiography. __(2)__, the story has many similarities to her own life.
The novel is written from the perspective* of Scout, a six-year-old girl. Scout was like a boy in some ways. Also, she was bored at school, __(3)__ it too easy. Lee as a child also had these traits*. What’s more, the fathers of both girls were lawyers who defended black men __(4)__ of crimes. In both cases, the lawyers did not win, but nevertheless the fathers taught their daughters to __(5)__ and do what is right. This involved __(6)__ men based on the truth rather than their race. Through their actions, these fathers __(7)__ their daughters to analyze situations objectively* instead of just giving in to the norms* of society.
Lee __(8)__ the similarities between Scout and herself. But, according to her, the book is not meant to be about her. Instead, it serves __(9)__ an example of how an author should write about what he or she knows. Either way, the book has __(10)__ had an enormous
influence on society. Pick up a copy and see why!

the release of To Kill a Mockingbird. In fact, there were many local laws, known collectively as Jim Crow laws, that made inequality both legal and acceptable. While many people __(1)__ in the unfairness of these laws, changing them seemed impossible.
States and cities across the South __(2)__ these laws to be strictly followed.
Furthermore, an 1896 Supreme Court ruling helped make these laws possible. The Court created a path that was called “separate but equal,” __(3)__ they were giving authorities a workable solution to the race problem. The results, however, were horrors like black-only sections in restaurants and on buses. Sammy Davis Jr., a famous African American
entertainer __(4)__ to racist laws in Las Vegas, could share a stage but not a hotel with his white co-stars. __(5)__, black soldiers were kept separate from white soldiers.
These laws began to draw increasing __(6)__. Eventually, more and more citizens __(7)__ to the side supporting their elimination.
