PART FOUR  WRITING

SECTION A

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

Rest is critical to life and work and a positive attitude towards rest needs to be maintained, for enough rest is significant to our body and mind while a lack of adequate rest, as well as misleading attitudes to rest, will do great harm to our health.

    Rest is vital to our ability to function at our best. Recent news stories report that scientists are learning surprising things about the importance of sleep. There is enough evidence suggesting that rest will refresh us, enabling our body and mind to work efficiently. Besides, rest is important for more than that; it is helpful in setting appropriate goals and deciding what goals to attain first. Those who are caught up in extremely busy lives lack the time to think about what they are doing and to make objective decisions, which blocks the maximization of their potential. 

On the contrary, lack of adequate rest damages brain function, so much so that sleep experts have been able to measure drops in IQ in patients who are short of sleep. Other studies have presented a negative effect on body movements in sleep-wanting subjects. It should not, therefore, be a surprise that the California Highway Patrol has stated that sleep-wanting drivers are as great a threat to road safety as are drunk drivers.

    However, rest is widely misunderstood by some people. Instead of sleep, they go to pubs and clubs and claim that this kind of entertaining is rest. For example, what they call social drinking or having a smoke with friends. Nowadays, the economy forces people to drink and gamble for the sake of the circles one moves in. This is what fools claim thoughtlessly that it’s restful. The truth is that rest means not using our labor both physically and mentally, even spiritually.

    We need to rest correctly and sufficiently; otherwise, tiredness and illness will occur. Without sufficient rest, good work is impossible. Rest is critical; it is not an end in itself.

    Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
      
    “To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density(密度)”，said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope(放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
      
    Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro / nanoelectromechanical systems (M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.
      
    “People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
      
    His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半導(dǎo)體). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
      
    “The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶體結(jié)構(gòu)) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
      
    Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
      
    Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?
      
    A. He teaches chemistry at MU.
      
    B. He developed a chemical battery.
      
    C. He is working on a nuclear energy source. 
      
    D. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.
      
     Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4_________.
      
    A. to show chemical batteries are widely applied. 
      
    B. to introduce nuclear batteries can be safely used.
      
    C. to describe a nuclear-powered system. 
      
    D. to introduce various energy sources.
      
    Liquid semiconductor is used to _________.
      
    A. get rid of the radioactive waste
      
    B. test the power of nuclear batteries.
      
    C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries 
      
    D. reduce the damage to lattice structure.
      
     According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery _______.
      
    A. uses a solid semiconductor
      
    B. will soon replace the present ones.
      
    C. could be extremely thin
      
    D. has passed the final test.
      
    The text is most probably a ________.
      
    A. science news report  B. book review
      
    C. newspaper ad    D. science fiction story

    SECTION A
    


    Directions: Read the following passage.
Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for
the passage.
    


    Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer
    


    Dieters are often advised to stop drinking
alcohol to avoid the extra calories hidden in a glass of wine or a favorite
cocktail. But new research suggests that women who regularly consume fair
amounts of alcohol are less likely to gain weight than nondrinkers and are at
lower risk for fat.
    


    The findings are based on a study of 19,220
United States women aged 39 or older who, at the start of the study, fell into
the “normal weight” category based on their body mass index (身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)). Researchers tracked the
women’s drinking habits over 13 years. About 60 percent of the women were light
or regular drinkers, while about 40 percent reported drinking no alcohol. 
    


    Over the course of the study, 41 percent of
the women became overweight or fat. Although alcohol is packed with calories
(about 150 in a six-ounce glass of wine), the nondrinkers in the study actually
gained more weight over time: nine pounds, on average, compared with an average
gain of about three pounds among regular mild drinkers. The risk of becoming
overweight was almost 30 percent lower for women who consumed one or two
alcohol drinks a day, compared with nondrinkers. 
    


    The findings are certain to be confusing
for women who continue to receive conflicting messages about the health
benefits and risks of alcohol. Although mild drinking is associated with better
heart health, regular drinking also increases breast cancer risk. 
    


    The trend toward less weight gain among
drinkers doesn’t appear to hold true for men. A 2003 study of British men
showed that regular drinkers gained more weight than nondrinkers. There may be
differences in how men and women metabolize(代謝) alcohol. Metabolic studies show that after men
drink alcohol, they experience little if any metabolic change. But alcohol
appears to slightly speed up a woman’s metabolism. 
    


    The findings don’t mean women should rush
to drink alcohol to lose weight. Other research shows that once a person is
already overweight, her alcohol metabolism is more efficient, and so an
overweight woman may gain more weight from alcohol than a lean woman. The data
do, however, suggest that for many women facing weight problems, the extra
calories are probably not coming from alcoholic drinks.

    SECTION
A 
    


    Directions:
Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information
from the passage.
    


        
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
    


    The
girls in this sixth grade class in East Palo Alto, California, all have the
same access to computers as boys. But researchers say, by the time they get to
high school, they are victims of what the researchers call a major new gender (性別)
gap in technology. Janice Weinman of the American Association of University
Women (AAUW) says, "Girls tend to be less comfortable than boys with the
computer. They use it more for word processing rather than for problem solving,
rather than to discover new ways in which to understand information. 
    


     
After re-examining a thousand studies, the AAUW researchers found that girls
make up only a small percentage of students in computer science classes. Girls
rate themselves significantly lower than boys in their ability and confidence
in using computers. And they use computers less often than boys outside the
classroom.
    


     
An instructor of a computer lab says he's already noticed some difference. Charles
Cheadle of Cesar Chavez School says, "Boys are not so afraid they might do
something that will harm the computer, whereas girls are afraid they might
break it somehow."
    


       
Six years ago, the software company Purple Moon noticed that girls' computer usage
was falling behind boys. Karen Gould with the company says, "The number
one reason girls told us they don't like computer games is not that they're too
violent, or too competitive. Girls just said they're unbelievably boring."
What girls want, Purple Moon found, is characters they can relate to and story
lines relative to what's going on in their own lives. "What we definitely
found from girls is that there is no intrinsic (內(nèi)在的)
reason why they wouldn't want to play on a computer; it was just a content
thing," says Karen Gould.
    


      
The sponsor of the study says it all boils down to this: the technology gender
gap that separates the girls from the boys must be closed if women are to
compete effectively with men in the 21st century. 
    


     
    


    What
has caused the new gender gap in technology?
    


    I.
The present situation:
    


    Before

    Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer．
    


    The Chilean earthquake, measuring 8.8 –
magnitude, which struck early Saturday morning, released 500 times the energy
of the 7.0 – magnitude quake that hit Haiti (海地) last month, a geophysicist told CBS’ “The Early
Show. ” Tsunami warnings were issued for much of the Pacific, including Hawaii,
following the quake that struck near the Chilean coast.
    


    "When the earthquake occurred, it
moved the land and then it moved the water causing the tsunami," said U.S.
Geological Survey geophysicist Jessica Sigala. "And the coastal areas of
Chile have already noticed the wave heights up to about 7 feet." 
    


    Sigala said Hawaiians can expect to see the
waves from this tsunami around 11:20 a.m. local time (about 4:20 p.m. ET).
"So we have to wait and see how big the waves will be." 
    


    "It's not so much the height [of the
wave] but it's the width, it's how long the duration, and then it's also the
speed at which it's traveling," said co-anchor Kelly Cobiella
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but these waves are traveling at the speed of a
jetliner, about 500 miles per hour?" 
    


    "That's correct. It's a big block of
water coming onto the land," Sigala said. 
    


    Chile has already experienced several
aftershocks following the quake. 
    


    "Aftershocks are definitely a concern,"
said Sigala. "We always see aftershocks with a large quake and a shallow
quake, which this one was. And as of right now, we've located about maybe 15
aftershocks and those are of the larger kind. I'm sure they felt much more than
that. 
    


    "A shallow earthquake just means that
it happened pretty close to the surface," said Sigala. "And because
of that the energy is really close to the surface, where all the buildings and
people are." 
    


    50 deaths caused by aftershocks have been
reported, according to the national emergency agency, adding the estimate
casualties to 960.

    PART FOUR  WRITING

    


    SECTION A 
    


    Directions: Read the
following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the
passage.
    


    Write NO MORE THAN
THREE WORDS for each answer.
    


    Society is a web of
relationships, requiring all parties(群體) to work together to
create something good. What makes society work best are effective(有效的) relationships that are based on mutual(相互的) understanding.
If you understand what people want and why they want it, you can usually find a
way to make progress together.
    


    High-quality
relationships make people happy. Some people living in the poorest communities
have almost nothing but turn out to be the happiest because they share a life
together. If effective relationships are working, happiness is always possible.

    


    Here are some simple
tips for building effective relationships.
    


    Listen to and try to
understand others’ positions and feelings. Listening in itself can lead to
understanding, and if you understand someone else fully, then you know how to
work better with him or her.
    


    Openly express your
needs and feelings. Sometimes we expect people—particularly those close to us
at home or work—to understand what we want and to give us what we need
intuitively(憑直覺地). However, people are so complicated and so
different that even when they have lived together for 60 years, they can still
surprise each other. So we need to say what we need and to express how we feel.
    


    In order to make our
relationships more effective, we should treat ourselves and other people with
respect. Respect is one of the most important elements of any good
relationship.
    


    Finally, learn to face
differences correctly. Learning this takes time and can be uncomfortable.
However, if we can try to remove differences in an effective way, we are more
likely to build exciting and satisfying relationships with others.
    


    By doing these things
you may discover that the happiness you long for is much closer than you
thought.
