Tsai Chin-chung is one of Taiwan’s most famous cartoonists， and his cartoons are enjoyed by people in many different countries in Asia. His books of cartoons have now become best sellers in Singapore， Malaysia， and even Japan.
As soon as he could hold a pencil or a brush， Tsai Chin-chung lived only for drawing. Every day he practised drawing people and things around him as well as characters and scenes from his favorite stories.
When he was only 15 years old， he left home to work for a publisher in  Taibei.  At first he was only 15 years old and he worked hard to draw pictures for books. So two years later he decided to leave his job as an artist who draws pictures for books and to work on drawing cartoon series. He made up his mind to succeed as a cartoonist even if it meant “l(fā)iving on instant noodles” in order to make himself famous.
Now nearly 50 years old， Tsai Chin-chung has achieved something unusual for a modern cartoonist. He has become extraordinarily successful at changing Chinese literature and philosophy  into humorous comic stories. In this way， he had made the Chinese classics known to thousands of people.
In recognition of his great achievement， several years ago Tsai Chin-chung was given a prize as one of the 10 Outstanding Young People of Taiwan. Since then， he has won many prizes and his cartoons have become popular in countries and areas throughout Asia， America and Europe. So far， he has published more than 20 comic books. Ten of these are about ancient Chinese philosophers， and the remainder are based on Chinese historical and literary classics.
Many of Tsai Chin-chung’s books of cartoons and comics have now been published in English in countries and areas like Singapore. His books have also been translated into several other languages， including Japanese， Korean and Thai. Even publishers in countries like France and Indonesia have recently signed agreements for permission to publish his cartoon series.

[1] Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults, a new study suggests. It’s not clear, researchers say, whether television itself is the reason, but it is possible that things like snacking(吃零食) in front of the TV or seeing ads for junk food influence young people’s diets.
[2] The study included nearly 1,400 high school students. It showed that those who watched TV for five hours or more everyday had less-healthy diets than their students five years later. As a group, they ate fewer fruits and vegetables, but ate more fast food, snack products and fried foods.
[3] "We’re not able to tell why," lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson said. "But we do have some speculations." People who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers, may have more snacks. It may influence their long-term diet quality. It’s also possible that TV ads for fast food, sweets and snacks make teenagers eat more of those foods. TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.
[4] The researchers found a clear relationship between TV time during high school and diet quality of the young. The heaviest TV viewers              , and those who’d watched fewer than two hours everyday had the most fruits, vegetables.
[5] According to Barr-Anderson, the findings support experts’ advice that children should watch no more than two hours of television everyday. "Parents should cut the TV time," Barr-Anderson said. She advised that parents set a good example by eating right, being physically active and controlling their own TV time.
小題1: Complete the following sentences according to the underlined one in paragraph 3. (no more than 5 words)
Some children may spend much time watching TV instead of                             .
小題2: What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to? (no more than 3 words)
小題3:According to Barr-Anderson, what should parents do to set a good example for their children? (no more than 15 words)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage .
According to one study, words send only 7 percent of a person’s message. Intonation (語調) and voice quality communicate 38 percent, and nonverbal(not using or involving words) cues (暗示) transmit a large 55 percent. That means people pick up more from nonverbal communication than from the words a person says. When studying a foreign culture then, it just makes sense to pay attention to how people use nonverbal cues.
Gestures consist of a major form of nonverbal communication. But often these gestures are culture-bound. For example, when the Maoris of New Zealand stick out (伸出) their tongue at someone, it is a sign of respect. When American schoolchildren make the same gesture, it means just the opposite. Also, Americans often indicate “OK” with their thumb and fore-finger touching to form a circle. The same gesture means “money” to the Japanese and “zero” to the French. For that reason, people in a foreign culture must use gestures with caution.
Another part of nonverbal communication is the one that you might not think about — space. When someone comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. When he knocks into someone, he feels obligated (有義務的) to apologize. But the size of a person’s “comfort zone” varies, depending on his cultural or ethnic origin. For example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart. People in Latin or Arabic cultures, instead, stand very close to each other and touch each other often.
Considering the effects of nonverbal communication, we never really stop communicating. How we walk, how we stand and how we use our hands all send a message to others. That’s why it’s possible to “read someone like a book”.
小題1:How does an American feel when an Arab stands too close to him ?（no more than 3 words）
_________________________________________________________
小題2: What does the gesture “OK” mean in Japan? （no more than 3 words）

［1］Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best method．Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
［2］The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious．Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time you are in the country．You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go．Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people．In Italy,it is always possible, in the class, to speak Italian if you want to and the learning is slower．
［3］On the other hand,              staying at home to study．You don’t have to make big changes to your life．As well as this,it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK．If you have a good teacher in Italy,I think you can learn in a more concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school．
［4］So,in conclusion,I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK．This is simply not possible for most people, so being here in Italy is the only（可行的）viable option．The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximise your opportunities:to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class．
小題1:What is the text mainly about?（no more than 10 words）

Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
Indian’s snake charmers are to be retrained as wildlife teachers under a plan to prevent their unique skills and knowledge from being lost. The charmers， who make snakes dance to the sound of flutes， used to be a traditional feature of Indian life， performing in towns and villages， until they were banned in 1972 to control the trade in snake skins.
The government is now considering a plan to train the saperas， as they are known， to visit schools and zoos to tell children about forests and wildlife. There is also a proposal to set up a “dial a snake charmer” service to help householders to deal with unwelcome intruders.
“For generations they have been a feature of Indian life but now they can’t earn a living for fear of arrest，” said Behar Dutt， a conservationist behind the plans， “if a policeman doesn’t catch them， animal rights activists report them.”
Many snake charmers have continued to work clandestinely(暗中地) since the ban， despite the threat of up to three years in jail. But their trademark cloth-covered baskets， hung from a bamboo pole carried across their shoulders， make them an easy target for police.
The fate of Shisha Nath， 56， from Badarpur， a village just outside of New Delhi， is typical of practitioners(從業(yè)者) of the dying art. “I used to earn enough to support my family and send my children to school，” he said. “Now it’s hard to earn even $1 a day. My children want to be snake charmers. It’s our identity. We love the work. But it’s become impossible.”
Next month Dutt’s project to train 30 snake charmers will begin at a snake park in Pune， western India， where experts will enrich their home-grown skills with some formal knowledge.
More than the law， though， it is the dishonest attitude of their fellow countrymen that anger many snake charmers.
“We’re disturbed all the time but when people want a snake removed from the house， they rush to us，” said Prakash Nath， who was ordered recently to the home of Sonia Gandhi， the Congress party leader.
小題1: What do snake charmers usually do in India？ (no more than 8 words) (2 marks)
小題2: How long will a saperas be in prison if he is caught during the ban？ (no more than 3 words) (2 marks)
　
小題3:For what purpose will snake charmers in India be retrained as wildlife teachers？(no more than 10 words) (3 marks)
　
小題4:According to the passage， what will make snake charmers angry？ (no more than 11 words) (3 marks)

Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. The beginnings of modem dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed.
Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea. Her great contributions are in three areas.
First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movements that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concerts.  In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (技巧高超) shown by complicated, codified positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using all her body in the freest possible way.  Her dance stemmed from (源自) her soul and spirit. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.
Her second contribution lies in dance costumes (服裝). She discarded corset, ballet shoes, and stiff costumes.  These were replaced with flowing clothes, bare feet, and unlimited hair.  She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal.
Her third contribution was in the use of music. In her performances she used the symphonies (交響樂) of great masters, including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.
She was as exciting and eccentric in her personal life as in her dance.
小題1:. The best title for the passage would be“_________”.
A．Dance in the Twentieth Century
B．Artists of the Last Century
C．Natural Movement in Dance
D．A Pioneer in Modern Dance
小題2: According to the passage, nature meant_________ to Duncan.
A．something to conquerB．a model for movement
C．a place to find peaceD．a symbol of disorder
小題3: The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses_________.
A．Duncan’s further contribution to modern dance
B．The music customarily used in ballet
C．other aspects of Duncan’s life
D．audience acceptance of the new form of dance
