(3) 說明：第21題至第30題，每題1分。 第 21 至 30 題為題組 There is one sad but true fact in life. As all friendships have beginnings, most will come to an end 21 . Losing friends is part of being human, just as making friends is. Sometimes, friendship ends with a fight. One friend, 22 , hurts another, and the hurt one cannot forgive the friend. Or perhaps one friend loses trust by 23 his or her friend’s secret. When friends stop 24 , the friendship dies quickly. Other friendships die slowly, bit by bit, over a long time. Friends may 25 this and let it happen, or it may happen without the friends really thinking about it. There is a saying, “Out of 26 , out of mind.” It means that if we don’t see someone, we don’t think of him or her often. Think about situations where one friend moves away to 27 city or country. At the beginning, the friends might stay in touch, but over time, both usually make new friends with 28 interests. Old friends are forgotten as a result. Thus, whenever big changes happen in life, it's an important test for friendships. If both friends decide to 29 their friendship, they have to put a lot of 30 into it. In this way, they will get great satisfaction in life from having a good friend. (A) sense. (B) telling. (C) similar. (D) repair. (E) effort. (F) sight. (G) for example. (H) one day. (I) another.

When you are generous and helpful to others, you are focusing on other people. 31 In addition, there is satisfaction in praising or helping others, and in seeing their response to your kindness. Showing kindness to others is a good way to bring about happiness. 32 When you encourage others or give them a pat on the back, it can make them believe in themselves and reach their goals. Also, you will feel good because you have helped someone do something great. As Blaise Pascal said, “Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.” Another way you can show kindness is by listening. 33 They can be uplifted by your kindness in listening to them. As Albert Schweitzer pointed out, “As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.” 34 Many people just need warm praise or a helping hand. Others merely need a.

However, with so many people living in cities and the suburbs now, country life seems refreshing and exotic. As a result, visiting farms on vacation has become very popular among urban people. This is known as agritourism, or agri-entertainment. The most well-known type of agritourism is entertainment farms. Unlike traditional farms, entertainment farms are rather consumer-focused. They usually hold agricultural festivals with educational values. For instance, some farms provide visitors with Halloween-related activities, such as picking pumpkins. Additionally, visitors can also buy souvenirs from farm stores before they leave. As entertainment farms are good places for kids to experience the atmosphere of countryside in particular, they have become frequent destinations for families and groups of students. Guest ranches, also known as “dude ranches,” are a form of agritourism that began in the American West more than a hundred years ago. Guests who spend their vacations at a dude ranch learn about ranch life and may choose to work on the ranch, too. For instance, visitors might milk cows or even help herd cattle. Guided horseback rides are also usually available for guests. Aside from what is mentioned above, wine tours are another type of agritourism. Visitors can spend a day touring the vineyards, learning about how wine is made, and tasting different types of wine. Some vineyards even offer guest rooms, allowing visitors to stay overnight in this romantic setting. Farms and ranches that offer agri-entertainment are often found in the countryside. For example, the American South has a lot of entertainment farms, and dude ranches attract many visitors to the American West. Many vineyards in winegrowing regions such as California, Italy, and Spain offer wine tours. Agritourism is quickly gaining in popularity and is expected to soon become one of the biggest types of tourism..

Do you think that professors invent words just so you can't understand them? Well, you are not alone. Many of us have a difficult time understanding the language of our rulers. In fact, there is a new movement asking that people in authority speak like the rest of us. In Britain, the Plain Language Commission promotes a campaign against complex language. They complain that most legal papers are not clear enough for ordinary people to clearly understand what the papers say. However, why do professionals use complex language? One reason is that in different jobs, specific words are used to describe the work done. These words are commonly known as jargon, and jargon is sometimes technical and difficult. Even the word “e-mail” was once considered jargon, because it was used by only a small group of people who understood the Internet at the very beginning. Another reason people use jargon is to make themselves appear intelligent. These people think that using difficult words shows how smart they are. In fact, it only makes them seem arrogant. The purpose of speech is to convey ideas to others and this cannot be achieved if no one can understand you. Next time you write a school paper, make sure that you use plain language so that your readers can understand you more easily and efficiently..

(A) The government should not allow the use of jargon. (B) Some jargon may become common words one day. (C) Using plain language in papers is unprofessional. (D) Jargon is invented by those who want to seem smart. 第 43 至 46 題為題組 The first vaccine in the world was invented by Edward Jenner who used the material from cowpox pustules to protect populations from smallpox. However, the history of vaccines could be dated to an earlier time than when smallpox material was used as immunity to the disease.

In 1885, Louis Pasteur, a French chemist and microbiologist, invented rabies vaccines that had a great influence on human disease. Back then, it was in the early developments of bacteriology. Later, antitoxins and vaccines against tetanus, diphtheria, anthrax, plague typhoid and more were also developed through the 1930s. Vaccine research and development came to its prime time in the middle of the 20th century.

Some vaccine research has been targeting non-infectious conditions such as addiction and allergies. However, the success of vaccines has been doubted and the numbers of anti-vaccination supporters are increasing. They claim that vaccines are not safe and may have side effects, which links to autism, though it has been proven to be false.

Seaweed can help! It can be used to serve as a natural fuel and renewable plastics and stabilize marine ecosystems. What’s more, it absorbs the nasty carbon. ________ Nevertheless, some researchers have found that seaweed might be a better solution. Trees need fertilizers or freshwater, but seaweed doesn’t. For one thing, seaweed grows faster than trees; for the other, it doesn’t need any land. Seaweed has more advantages than we could think of. For example, seaweed could be a main food source. According to Carlos Duarte, a professor of marine ecology, he contends that if we need to feed the world population by 2050, there is only one pathway that is possible for sustainability. “Seaweed farming,” he said. Moreover, seaweed production provides great job opportunities. In the past decade, seaweed production has risen and people interested in seaweed as a food source are increasing. In British Columbia, seaweed farming has been getting more attention, and this means more job opportunities could be provided to people from First Nations communities. Without the popularity of seaweed farming, these aboriginal inhabitants would be forced to look for work in other places. Unlike white people in Canada, First Nations people have farmed on land and in the ocean for thousands of years. For them, seaweed farming helps them to boost their economy that aligns with their tradition in which their land has been cared and repaired by themselves. However, growing seaweed is a double-edged sword. It’s perfect for fighting climate change, using it as a food source and providing job opportunities. But it can decompose and let out carbon back into the air and water if it isn’t collected. Too.

(D) People might view forests as the primary guardian to defend climate change. 48. According to the narration from paragraph 4, who are First Nations people? (2 分) 49. There are many advantages growing seaweed. But it could be dangerous if it isn’t collected or grows too much, then it will rot and release or even block from going into the water. (2 分) 50.
