Children of the World, I realized that not all children live a carefree life and can dream big as we

Of all the children in the film, a 12-year-old boy named Sandeep Shahani in India impressed me most. 38 . The caste system classifies people depending on their family names, so Sandeep is less likely to change his job. He works around the clock, rowing passengers across the river for a trifling sum—perhaps NT$2 or NT$3 per trip. 39 . Watching Sandeep living such a difficult life made me grateful for what I have. The fact that he works hard and tries his best even though he is living under unfavorable circumstances also inspires me to follow through with my own dreams.

V. Reading Comprehension 20% (每題 2 分)

As E-commerce has become a global economic trend, people are buying more products than ever before through the Internet. According to the statistics of AC Nielsen Corporation, fifty- three percent of Taiwanese have bought something electronically, which makes Taiwan the second largest place worldwide in terms of the number of online shoppers. Store owners are worried that the growing amount of online sales will hurt their businesses. This has led traditional stores to seek new ways to keep their customers loyal.

Experts say that traditional stores can keep their customers by selling goods that buyers may want to see and taste, or feel the material and try on before purchasing. The stores can also offer services to instantly set up or repair electronic products. In addition, stores can offer things that are difficult to ship, or provide goods to buyers more quickly than online stores. Experts say that traditional stores offer the unique social experiences and personal interactions that most people enjoy. A lot of emotions can occur in the final buying decision. Oftentimes, you need that last sense of “Wow, this is exactly what I want!” before you’re ready to pay, and you can’t always get that online.

Are you worried that you are not attractive enough? Or are you worried about getting or looking old? Many people are. Some of them are so desperate to look younger than their actual age that they use cosmetic surgery in order to become more attractive. However, nowadays, people have a better and safer choice—“Botox (肉毒桿菌)” for short.

Since 2000, the number of Botox users worldwide has increased to 2.8 million. It is safe, relatively painless, and most important of all, it works fast. What then is Botox? It is a chemical that comes from a form of food poisoning called botulism, which causes serious effect such as paralysis. For example, botulism can kill by stopping one's respiratory (呼吸的) muscles from working. One dies simply because one can't breathe. It's no surprise that Botox is also a muscle- stopper. But it paralyzes to beautify, not to kill.

Botox is used through injection. People who want to get rid of the lines and wrinkles around their eyes, mouth or neck can get Botox injected to those areas. The chemical then stops the muscles on the face and neck from moving or contracting. It actually paralyzes one's muscles and thus creates wrinkle-free features.

Unfortunately, the effect of Botox doesn't last long. One has to keep getting injections once every three months to look fresh and young. However, too much Botox can be harmful too, and doctors warn that an overdose of Botox can cause droopy eyelids, raised eyebrows, and loss of facial expression. But Botox shouldn't present any serious threat to those who want to rejuvenate themselves if taken moderately and wisely. For now, their motto should simply be “Just Botox it.”

45. Compared to cosmetic surgery, Botox injection _______.

(A) works slower (B) is more expensive (C) has no side effects (D) is relatively painless 46. According to this passage, how many times should an aged woman get Botox injections a year to keep her younger than her actual age?

(A) 1. (B) 2.8. (C) 4. (D) 14.

47.The word “rejuvenate” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by _______.

(A) refresh (B) deteriorate (C) purchase (D) distribute 48.Which of the following statements is correct?

(A) Nowadays, cosmetic surgery is more popular than Botox injection.

(B) Those who consume food with botulism die of serious heart attack immediately.

(C) Improper use of Botox injection may lead to weird facial expression.

(D) Botox injection enables people to breathe better so as to become more attractive.

49. We can infer from the passage that Botox injection _______.

(A) will soon be replaced by cosmetic surgery (B) can be harmful, if people don't use it properly (C) is suitable for athletes to strengthen their muscles

(D) serves as a powerful weapon in defeating enemies in wars
