三、克漏字測驗【請依照段落上下文意，選出最適當的答案】
第一篇：
Australia’s most populous state is setting up cameras as part of an effort to reduce 41 people preoccupied with wireless devices while they drive. Each phone detection unit contains two cameras. One camera takes pictures of a vehicle’s registration plate. A second camera looks through the front window of a car or truck to see 42 drivers are doing with their hands. The units use artificial intelligence to set aside drivers who are not touching their phones. Human beings then confirm 43 the pictures show illegal behavior before a notice is sent to the vehicle’s registered owner. A violation carries a fine of $232. Some cameras will be permanently set up on roadsides. Others will be moved, 44 , around the state.
Not everyone agrees with the new program. Peter Khoury represents Australia’s National Roads and Motorists’ Association. He accused the government of using secretive methods to cut down on illegal phone use.
The association supports tougher action against drivers distracted by phones. Still, the group wants the government to 45 signs warning motorists that phone detection cameras were operating in an area.

四、閱讀測驗【請依照段落上下文意，選出最適當的答案】
第一篇：
For most people, Japanese culture is exotic. The Japanese language, though written in a script developed by the Chinese and its modern vocabulary is saturated with English loan words, belongs to no other known language family. Despite its average size, Japan pulls far above its weight in international economic, political, and cultural circles. From sushi to sumo to geisha, Japan has intrigued the world for centuries. Among these, perhaps no other Japanese cultural tradition than geisha has been more famous but also misunderstood.
Within Japan, geishas have long been admired and respected. As early as the 16th century, a neighborhood in Kyoto — then the capital of Japan — was dedicated to pleasure by the local authority. At the time, oiran, skilled women of beauty and artistic ability, entertained rich patrons and served as their courtesans. This district also provided dancing, music, poetry reading, and other forms of entertainment by artists known as geishas. They would eventually replace the oiran by the middle of the 18th century.
Today, true geishas are few, but their profession is still attractive to some women. Whether entering the realm of the geisha fresh out of junior high school, or a little later from high school or college, or even as an adult, all would-be geishas must undergo very strict training. Not only must they learn traditional song, dance, and literature, but they also learn social graces such as serving food and drink properly, how to dress and make up, and how to conduct engaging and entertaining conversations. This training can last a mere six months in Tokyo but a full five years in Kyoto.
Contrary to popular myth, a geisha’s love life is separate from her professional life. The geisha ideal is not a Japanese Barbie doll. It is rather the personification of the ideal Japanese woman: elegant, graceful, beautiful, and talented.
【3】51. What is the best title for this passage?
Japanese Cultural Traditions
How to Become a Geisha
The Art and Intrigue of the Geisha
The Most Famous Geisha in History
【1】52. What is said in the passage about the Chinese and Japanese languages?
Japanese does not belong to the Chinese language family.
Both English and Japanese have been influenced by the Chinese language.
Japanese and Chinese both have many English loan words.
Chinese writing was influenced by Japanese writing.
【2】53. Which of the following statements about the oiran is true?
They were named after a district in Tokyo. They entertained and served wealthy clients.
They replaced the geisha in Kyoto. It is easier to become one in Tokyo than in Kyoto.
【4】54. How long does training to be a geisha last nowadays?
Six years in Kyoto. Five years anywhere in Japan.
For a mere couple of months. Between six months and five years.
【1】55. What does the phrase saturated with in the first paragraph mean?
Contain the greatest possible amount of the substance.
Happen faster or earlier than expected.
Combine two or more things so that they work together.
Separate people of different races, religions or sexes and treat them in a different way.
第二篇：
In the 1950s, women were expected to stay at home, and those who wanted to work were often stigmatized.
Today it’s mostly the other way round, setting women against one another along the fault lines of conviction, economic class and need, and, often, ethnicity.
Across the developed world, women who stay home are increasingly seen as old-fashioned and an economic burden to society. If their husbands are rich, they are frequently criticized for being lazy; if they are immigrants, for keeping children from learning the language and ways of their host country. Their daily chores of cleaning, cooking or raising their children have always been ignored by national accounts (If a man marries his housekeeper and stops paying her for her work, G.D.P. goes down. If a woman stops nursing and buys formula for her baby, G.D.P. goes up.).
In a debate that counts women catching up with men in education and the labor market in terms of raising productivity and economic growth, stay-at-home moms are valued less than ever. This is so despite the fact that from Norway to the United States, economists put the value of their unpaid work ahead of that of the manufacturing sector.
In countries where mothers still struggle to combine career with family and quit work less out of conviction than out of necessity, they are often doubly punished. In Germany, the biggest economy in Europe, most schools still finish at lunchtime, and full-time nurseries for children under 3 are scarce. Yet in this generation of young mothers you are more likely to find women saying they are on extended maternity leave or between jobs than admitting they are housewives. Only among the wealthy is it seen as class status when the highly educated mother takes children to Chinese or violin lessons.
“It’s hard to find a balance between not romanticizing and not stigmatizing housewives,” said a professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts. “Even though a number of women still stay at home, a cultural shift has put them on the defensive.”
【3】56. What is the passage mainly about?
Attitudes toward housewives in countries across Europe
The development of women’s rights movement over the past sixty years
Under appreciation of housewives in many developed countries
How rich people differ from ordinary people
【1】57. Why is G.D.P. mentioned in the second paragraph?
To show that housewives’ efforts are often not properly valued
To illustrate how much money is lost by women quitting their jobs
To encourage men to marry their housekeepers
To prove that immigrants fail to raise their children well in developed countries
【4】58. Which of the following is true?
Germany is not one of the developed countries.
Social expectations towards women have not changed much in the past few decades.
Learning Chinese is often seen as an indication of political power.
Many women are reluctant to admit they are housewives because of the negative social perception.
【1】59. According to the passage, what do economists from Norway to the United States think of housewives?
They consider the work of housewives rather valuable.
They propose that housewives should be paid by their husbands.
They recommend violin lessons for children of highly educated housewives.
They think housewives are over romanticized in modern society.
【2】60. Which of the following statements will the author most probably agree with?
Housewives made very little contribution to society.
Our society should give more recognition to the efforts of housewives.
Our culture has changed a lot and housewives are now overvalued.
Immigrant housewives are a serious burden to the economy of developed countries.
