Food for Thought on Eating Healthy
Maintaining a healthy 11 can be a challenge. It might be more tempting to get a burger and fries rather than tofu or salad. For this reason, certain 12 to unhealthy foods have become popular among health-conscious individuals.
However, a lot of the foods we think of as healthy aren’t as good for us as we might think.
Take salad 13 . There are few things healthier than a bowl of vegetables. The problem is what we add to it--- salad is usually 14 dressings which are full of sugar and sodium. Some salads might even have large 15 of cheese, bacon, or fried chicken, which makes them just as unhealthy as many other dishes.

Déjà Vu and You
Researchers have long 16 déjà Vu to memory. Some have said it results from the mind’s 17 of false memories. It has even been argued that déjà Vu is caused by memory problems and is a sign of an unhealthy brain. However, 18 have shown that déjà Vu is experienced more frequently by younger people than older adults, who are more likely to have
memory difficulties.
Psychologists note that we have memories for things that happened to us as well as memories for the places where these things 19 ; the latter is called source memory. Déjà Vu 20 us when we recall source memory but are doing something new. This is thought to happen because of similarities between the old and new situations. These feelings of recognition typically come and go very quickly, though the sensation of déjà Vu can be very strong.

第 26 至 34 題為題組 Reading
Having a meal is an easy and delightful process for most people. However, for a woodpecker, it’s not that simple. What does a woodpecker do to get its dinner? Well, what it has to do is hit its head against a tree dozens of times. Yet, amazingly, it never suffers any ill effects like brain damage, even though it has to peck numerous times per day. According to research, it is the woodpecker’s thick head bones that protect it from the impact of the blows. For explaining that, Ivan Schwab won an Ig Nobel Prize for Ornithology.
The Ig Nobel Prizes are organized by The Annals of Improbable Research, an American magazine that celebrates the funny side of science. Each year, ten winners are awarded prizes in honor of their “achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think.” Most of the award-winning research, like Schwab’s, may seem unusual, but it usually grabs people’s attention indeed. And no matter how ridiculous the research sounds, people can find it inspiring and amus- ing.
With these awards in mind, you might be more interested in Brian Wansink’s research. He took home an Ig Nobel Prize for Nutrition for looking into the influence of visual factors on people’s appetites. He used specially designed bowls that refilled themselves with soup while people were eating. Since these people had no idea this was happening, they just kept eating from these “bottomless bowls.” They said they didn’t feel full because their bowls were not empty yet. The re- sults of this research showed that people in this experiment ate 73 percent more soup than normal. Owing to these results, Wansink concluded that it’s not people’s stomachs that decide when they have eaten enough, but their eyes.
In addition to facts and discoveries that people have never heard of, the Ig Nobel Prizes also give attention to science and technology that is a part of our daily lives. Take the karaoke machine, for example. It was born in 1971, and its inventor Daisuke Inoue was given an Ig Nobel Peace Prize for creating it. Inoue was employed at a nightclub, playing the piano for the customers who wanted to sing. Since he wasn’t skillful enough to play all the songs properly, he tried to think of some ways to clear up the problem. Thus, he created the karaoke machine. To Inoue’s surprise, the machine caused considerable changes in entertainment worldwide. The Ig Nobel Prize was awarded to Inoue not only because his invention was enter- taining, but also because it has brought about “an entirely new way for people to learn to tolerate each other.”
These research results of Ig Nobel Prizes may not be as great as Edison’s light bulb or Newton’s laws of motion. Nev- ertheless, they do show people’s willingness to take action and to try new ways to solve problems. It is not about how much a person accomplishes, but about how desperately he or she has tried to achieve something. According to Marc Abrahams, a founder of the Ig Nobel Prizes, “if you win one, it signifies that you have done something.”
26. Why does a woodpecker never suffer any brain damage even if it has to peck a number of times a day?
(A) It has special nerves.
(B) It depends on the kind of wood it pecks.
(C) It has very thick head bones.
(D) It has high tolerance for pain.
27. What is NOT true about the Ig Nobel Prizes?
(A) The organizers of the Ig Nobel Prizes celebrate the funny side of science.
(B) They are organized by an American magazine.
(C) They select ten winners every year.
(D) The awarded inventions are merely funny but never inspiring.
28. Which of the following sayings can best conclude Wansink’s research?
(A) Apples don’t fall far from the trees.
(B) Too many cooks spoil the broth.
(C) Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face.
(D) One’s eyes are bigger than one’s stomach.
29. Which of the following is NOT true about the karaoke inventor Daisuke Inoue?
(A) Daisuke Inoue worked at a night club before he invented the karaoke machine.
(B) It was surprising for Daisuke Inoue to know that the karaoke machine brought huge changes in entertainment around the world.
(C) There was no music that Daisuke Inoue couldn’t play at work before he invented the karaoke machine.
(D) Daisuke was awarded Ig Nobel Peace Prize.

30 至 34 題為題組
Earth Day falls on every April 22. Beginning in 1970, it was established to attract people’s attention to the global environment. It also focuses on what human activities, such as burning coal and polluting rivers and oceans, might do harm to our planet.
The American senator (參議員), Gaylord Nelson, was the first person who seriously presented the idea about this special day. His idea came after he saw an oil spill in the ocean off the coast of California. He was so angry with the pollution off the coast and in wildlife habitats that he went back to Washington D.C. and persuaded lawmakers to make April 22 Earth Day.
To make Earth Day successful, Nelson needed to get attention from television stations, magazines, and newspapers.
Therefore, he asked some highly talented college students to lead environmental activities on April 22. It was a big success in most people’s eyes, but not everyone felt that way. Some people thought that Earth Day activities were too negative.
Besides, they thought scientists had tried too hard to scare people about how terribly humans had treated the planet.
Despite some negative opinions, Earth Day is still a popular and important way to make people think about the global environment. Because of it, many important laws about protecting the global environment have been passed in the U.S.
These laws require companies and local governments to cooperate with each other to limit pollution and help clean up the environment. Therefore, Earth Day indeed has made people care about the environment and make efforts to protect it.
30. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about Earth Day?
(A) People had the same views on the Earth Day activities.
(B) An American senator came up with the idea of Earth Day.
(C) Earth Day is on April 22 every year.
(D) The first Earth Day began in 1970.
31. According to the passage, how did Gaylord Nelson draw public’s attention to Earth Day?
(A) He invited some scientists to present their studies and give speeches on Earth day.
(B) He asked some college students to hold activities related to the idea of Earth Day.
(C) He tried to explain the meaning and importance of Earth Day in his book about environment.
(D) He gathered the public to ask for the passing of environmental laws.
32. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the advantage of Earth Day?
(A) Many important laws about industry have been passed in the U.S.A.
(B) People have been making efforts to protect the environment.
(C) Companies are required to help clean up the environment.
(D) Local governments are required to fight against pollution.
33. The word “cooperate” in the last paragraph means ____.
(A) To enjoy together (B) To control each other (C) To work together
(D) To fight against each other 34.What is the best title for this passage?
(A) The Negative Effect of Earth Day (B)The Debate on Earth Day
(C) The Celebration on Earth Day (D) The Meaning of Earth Day
