If you find yourself feeling a little less cheerful than you were when days are going from summer to autumn, it’s not your imagination: there is a science-backed reason that you’re more likely to feel down in the cooler months.
“It’s real,” said Kathryn Roecklein, an associate professor in University of Pittsburgh. The changes don’t always affect (影響) everyone in the same way, she added. But seasonal mood (情緒) changes often include less energy, feeling less social, losing interest in favorite activities and changes in sleep, you may have trouble sleeping or want to sleep more than usual.
There are a lot of reasons why our moods tend to change with the season, but a big factor is _________. “The hours of a day, which are shorter in winter and longer in summer, are the main reason,” said Roecklein. Sunsets are on their way to getting earlier and earlier as soon as autumn begins, so it’s not surprising if you feel those mood changes around the same time.
One key point to remember about the “winter blues” is that it’s NOT something we cannot overcome (克服). Here are a few things you can do. First, get yourself bathed in the sun. A walk outside in the sun in the morning will surely make you feel better. Secondly, eat right. Try more fruits, vegetables and drink plenty of water. Besides, make time for your friends. It is said that a good chat with your best friends makes your day.
29．The second paragraph tells us ________.
A．that changes in sleep mean you want to sleep more
B．what activities lead you to seasonal mood changes
C．what problems you may have with seasonal mood changes
D．that your favorite activities make you less social
30．Which of the following is the most suitable for the blank (空白處) in Paragraph 3

A．Feeling down in winter. B．Loving thick blue clothes.
C．Painting houses blue in winter. D．Listening to blues in winter.
32．People are advised to do the following EXCEPT ________.
A．drinking more water B．going out to have a sun bath
C．meeting their friends D．reading a book recommended by a friend

January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as Open AI’s GPT-40, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million（1/70 of Open AI’s cost）and used 2,048 computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money.
DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. For example, in a global math test, it got 79.8% right, slightly higher than Open AI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies.
DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with RI cost $10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even Meta（a famous U. S. tech company）top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.”
US tech companies are worried. Meta plans to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts say China is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat expensive tools.
As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money.
33．The passage is mainly developed by ________.
A．providing examples B．listing numbers
C．following the order of time D．comparing R1 with other AIs
34．What do the underlined words mean in paragraph 2
A．It becomes better through practice. B．It copies answers from other AIs.
C．It needs programmers to fix mistakes. D．It only works with expensive tools.
35．Why does the engineer say, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use”
A．To explain why R1 is free. B．To compare R1 with Meta’s AI.
C．To encourage students to study math. D．To show that expensive AI models have no value.
36．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To explain how computer chips work. B．To introduce a low-cost AI model from China.
C．To encourage students to become programmers. D．To compare Chinese and American AI technologies.

I was now in my twenty-seventh year on the island. One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.
“Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!”
I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盜)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.”
There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy.
Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.
“Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.”
The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised.
Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard.
Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛亂), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.”
“Do these mutineers (叛軍) have guns ”
“Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.”
“All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”
Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan.
37．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island
A．Relaxed. B．Excited. C．Angry. D．Afraid.
38．What is the correct order of the following events
a. The three prisoners sat under a tree on the beach.
b. The writer and Friday saw a ship coming to their island.
c. The writer managed to talk with the three prisoners.
d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.
A．b-a-c-d B．b-c-a-d C．d-b-a-c D．d-a-b-c
39．Which of the following is true about the writer
A．He himself was a wild man indeed.
B．He hoped to get away from the island.
C．He lived on the island alone for 27 years.
D．He could fight the mutineers without guns.
40．Why did “I” help the captain
A．Because he was caught by the mutineers.
B．Because the ship was taken by the mutineers.
C．Because a mutiny happened on the ship.
D．Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island.

閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Have you ever wondered why the letters on akeyboard are not in “ABC” order
The keyboard we use every day is called the QWERTY keyboard layout (布局). Q, W, E, R, T, Y are the first six letters on this layout, starting from the top left. 41 The first manual typewriter (手動打字機), with a keyboard which looked like a piano, was invented in the late 19th century. 42 However, people later found out that as the typing speed (速度) increased, some keys failed to come back to their places quickly. As a result, they got jammed (卡住) very easily. 43 To solve this problem, the QWERTY keyboard was invented. It placed keys in such a way that the most used letters were spaced out so that the keys were more likely to work freely.
44 With the arrival of the computer, the typists in offices were the same people who were to now use computers. This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device (設備). 45 It was easier to design the keyboards following the layout of typewriters, which was the QWERTY layout, and this continues even today.
A．But training required too much time and money.
B．However, another problem came about in the 1940s.
C．These typewriters did have the ABC keyboard layout.
D．Here are some tips to help you get used to the QWERTY keyboard.
E．To understand why we went with QWERTY, we need to go back in history.
F．Most typists ended up breaking the typewriter altogether when separating the keys.
G．The QWERTY keyboard is the most popular choice worldwide.

六、任務型閱讀（共3小題，滿分7分）
請認真閱讀短文，用英語回答短文后的問題，并將答案寫在答題卡標有題號的橫線上。
What is space tourism
Space tourism is space travel for leisure purposes (休閑目的). What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C． Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.
Futurologists (未來學家) are scientists who try to predict (預測) what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come.
Space Adventure is currently the only company to send people into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world’s first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.
Following several successful trips into space, more companies are now thinking about the possibility of sending tourists into space. In order to make it cheaper, suborbital (亞軌道的) space travel is a choice for many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3—6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars, then come back down to earth. This costs about $200, 000 per person.
While it could be an amazing experience, there are some problems with space tourism. Many people believe that it could make global warming (全球變暖) worse and it is not good for the ozone layer (臭氧層). What’s more, space travel is only really for the rich people. There are still millions of people worldwide who couldn’t pay for it.
64．Which book described space tourism
65．When did the first man land on the moon
66．Do you think space travel will be easy to popularize (普及) in the future Why

一、單項選擇（本題共10小題；每題1分，滿分10分）
從 A、B、C、D 四個選項中， 選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
1．The UK is _________ European country while China is ________ Asian country.
A．an; an B．an; a C．a; a D．a; an
【答案】D
【詳解】句意：英國是一個歐洲國家，而中國是一個亞洲國家。
考查冠詞。an一個，修飾元音音素開頭的單詞；a一個，修飾輔音音素開頭的單詞。European是輔音音素開頭的單詞，因此第一空用不定冠詞a修飾European country；Asian是元音音素開頭的單詞，因此第二空用不定冠詞an修飾Asian country，故選D。
2．—Where did you get the book
—From the library. And I have ________ it for two weeks.
A．borrowed B．lent C．bought D．kept
【答案】D
【詳解】句意：——你從哪里弄到這本書的？ ——從圖書館。我已經借了兩周了。
考查動詞辨析。borrowed借入；lent借出；bought購買；kept保留。分析挖空所在句可知，此句為肯定句并且其時間狀語為“for+時間段”，所以此句謂語應用延續性動詞，選項中只有“kept”為延續性動詞。故選D。
3．The European Union (歐盟) is ________ 27 member countries. Neither Ukraine nor Russia is in it.
A．made of B．made from C．made in D．made up of
【答案】D
【詳解】句意：歐盟由27個成員國組成。烏克蘭和俄羅斯都不在其中。
考查動詞短語。be made of由……制成；be made from由……制成；be made in在某地制作；be made up of由……組成。根據“The European Union (歐盟) is...27 member countries”可知歐盟由27個成員國組成。故選D。
4．The old lady lives ________ in a lonely house, but she doesn’t feel ________.
A．alone; lonely B．lonely; alone C．lonely; lonely D．alone; alone
【答案】A
【詳解】句意：這位老婦人獨自住在一個偏僻的房子里，但是她并不感覺孤獨。
考查alone和lonely的區別。alone可用作形容詞或副詞，表示“一個人，獨自”，無感彩；lonely作形容詞，表示“孤獨的，寂寞的”，有較強的感彩。根據“lives...in a lonely house”可知空格處為副詞修飾live，故此處為alone；根據“but she doesn’t feel...”可知feel為系動詞，后接形容詞，且此處為轉折關系，前面表示老人一個人住，后面轉折表示老婦人并不孤獨，故此處應填lonely。故選A。
5．They got married ________ 2010. That means they have been married ________ 2010.
A．since, in B．since, since
C．in, since D．in, in
【答案】C
【詳解】句意：他們在2010年結的婚。那意味著他們自從2010年就已經結婚了。
考查介詞。in用在年、月的前面；since+時間點，表示“自從……以來”，常與現在完成時連用。故選C。
6．— Where is your teacher — He ______ the library. He ______ the library for an hour.
A．has gone to; has been to B．has gone to; has been in
C．has been to; has been in D．has been to; has gone to
【答案】B
【詳解】句意：——你的老師在哪里？——他去了圖書館，已經一個小時了。考查現在完成時。結合上文Where is your teacher？可知老師不在，去了某地，動作發生在過去，持續了一段時間用現在完成時have/has+過去分詞；have/has gone to去了某地；have/has been to 去過某地；have/has been in在某地待了多久。主語he，故has，結合for an hour可知是表達待了多久，故答案是B。
7．With the ________, we can choose one icon and click on it for more details.
A．menu B．mouse C．printer D．screen
【答案】B
【詳解】句意：用鼠標，我們可以選擇一個圖標，然后點擊它來獲得更多的細節。
考查名詞詞義辨析。menu菜單；mouse鼠標；printer打印機；screen屏幕。根據“click on it”可知是用鼠標在上面點擊。故選B。
8．—Have you decided ________, lady
—Sorry, I haven’t decided yet.
A．to buy which one B．buy which one C．which to buy one D．which one to buy
【答案】D
【詳解】句意：——女士，你決定買哪一個了嗎？——對不起，我還沒有決定。
考查疑問詞+不定式的結構。根據題干并結合選項可知，問句的賓語是“疑問詞+動詞不定式”，因此可排除選項A和B；而疑問詞“which”在此處作定語，應緊跟所修飾的詞one，故排除選項C，只有選項D符合題意。故選D。
9．—Can you give me ________ on what to wear to the party, Tom
—I think the white dress is OK.
A．some advice B．some advices C．an advice D．any advices
【答案】A
【詳解】句意：——湯姆，關于參加聚會穿什么衣服，你能給我一些建議嗎？——我想那件白色的就可以了。
考查名詞的數和不定代詞。some一些，用在肯定句中，也常用于希望得到肯定回答的疑問句中；any任何，常用于否定句和疑問句中；advice是不可數名詞，無復數形式，也不可用不定冠詞修飾，故排除B、C、D；故選A。
10．—Do you mind my smoking here
—________. Look at the sign. It says, “No smoking.”
A．You’d better not B．It doesn’t matter C．Yes, please D．No, I don’t
【答案】A
【詳解】句意：——你介意我在這里抽煙嗎？——你最好不要。看標牌，上面寫著：“禁止吸煙。”
考查情景交際。You’d better not你最好不要；It doesn’t matter沒關系；Yes, please是的，請；No, I don’t不，我沒有。根據“Look at the sign. It says, ‘No smoking.’”可知，此處表示最好不要抽煙。故選A。

If you find yourself feeling a little less cheerful than you were when days are going from summer to autumn, it’s not your imagination: there is a science-backed reason that you’re more likely to feel down in the cooler months.
“It’s real,” said Kathryn Roecklein, an associate professor in University of Pittsburgh. The changes don’t always affect (影響) everyone in the same way, she added. But seasonal mood (情緒) changes often include less energy, feeling less social, losing interest in favorite activities and changes in sleep, you may have trouble sleeping or want to sleep more than usual.
There are a lot of reasons why our moods tend to change with the season, but a big factor is _________. “The hours of a day, which are shorter in winter and longer in summer, are the main reason,” said Roecklein. Sunsets are on their way to getting earlier and earlier as soon as autumn begins, so it’s not surprising if you feel those mood changes around the same time.
One key point to remember about the “winter blues” is that it’s NOT something we cannot overcome (克服). Here are a few things you can do. First, get yourself bathed in the sun. A walk outside in the sun in the morning will surely make you feel better. Secondly, eat right. Try more fruits, vegetables and drink plenty of water. Besides, make time for your friends. It is said that a good chat with your best friends makes your day.
29．The second paragraph tells us ________.
A．that changes in sleep mean you want to sleep more
B．what activities lead you to seasonal mood changes
C．what problems you may have with seasonal mood changes
D．that your favorite activities make you less social
30．Which of the following is the most suitable for the blank (空白處) in Paragraph 3
A．Wind. B．Light. C．Time. D．Food.
31．What does the underlined phrase “winter blues” in Paragraph 4 mean
A．Feeling down in winter. B．Loving thick blue clothes.
C．Painting houses blue in winter. D．Listening to blues in winter.
32．People are advised to do the following EXCEPT ________.
A．drinking more water B．going out to have a sun bath
C．meeting their friends D．reading a book recommended by a friend
【答案】29．C 30．B 31．A 32．D
【導語】本文是一篇說明文。主要講述了季節性情緒變化的原因以及如何應對冬季情緒低落的問題。
29．細節理解題。根據“But seasonal mood changes often include less energy, feeling less social, losing interest in favorite activities and changes in sleep, you may have trouble sleeping or want to sleep more than usual.”可知，第二段主要講述了季節性情緒變化可能帶來的問題。故選C。
30．推理判斷題。根據“The hours of a day, which are shorter in winter and longer in summer, are the main reason”和“Sunsets are on their way to getting earlier and earlier as soon as autumn begins”可知，夏天白天時間長，秋天一開始，日落就越來越早了。由此可推出，影響情緒變化的主要因素是光照時間的變化。故選B。
31．詞句猜測題。根據“so it’s not surprising if you feel those mood changes around the same time.”和“it’s NOT something we cannot overcome”可知，“冬季憂郁癥”這種情緒變化并不是我們無法克服的事情。“winter blues”指的是冬季情緒低落。故選A。
32．細節理解題。根據“First, get yourself bathed in the sun. A walk outside in the sun in the morning will surely make you feel better. Secondly, eat right. Try more fruits, vegetables and drink plenty of water. Besides, make time for your friends.”可知，文章建議做的事情包括曬太陽、合理飲食、與朋友見面，但沒有提到閱讀朋友推薦的書。故選D。
C
January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as Open AI’s GPT-40, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million（1/70 of Open AI’s cost）and used 2,048 computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money.
DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. For example, in a global math test, it got 79.8% right, slightly higher than Open AI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies.
DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with RI cost $10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even Meta（a famous U. S. tech company）top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.”
US tech companies are worried. Meta plans to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts say China is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat expensive tools.
As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money.
33．The passage is mainly developed by ________.
A．providing examples B．listing numbers
C．following the order of time D．comparing R1 with other AIs
34．What do the underlined words mean in paragraph 2
A．It becomes better through practice. B．It copies answers from other AIs.
C．It needs programmers to fix mistakes. D．It only works with expensive tools.
35．Why does the engineer say, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use”
A．To explain why R1 is free. B．To compare R1 with Meta’s AI.
C．To encourage students to study math. D．To show that expensive AI models have no value.
36．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To explain how computer chips work. B．To introduce a low-cost AI model from China.
C．To encourage students to become programmers. D．To compare Chinese and American AI technologies.
【答案】33．D 34．A 35．A 36．B
【導語】本文通過對比和舉例，介紹了DeepSeek-R1這一低成本、高性能的AI模型，并強調了其在全球AI領域的重要性和創新意義。
33．推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，DeepSeek-R1該模型能以較低的成本完成與頂級模型相似的任務，它通過自我學習和實踐來提高性能，與其他大量預設示例的AI不同。DeepSeek-R1的免費使用和修改政策使其在全球范圍內受到關注。可見，文章主要是通過比較DeepSeek-R1與其他AI來展開。故選D。
34．詞義猜測題。根據第二段“DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths.”可知，DeepSeek-R1能夠像學生練習數學一樣不斷嘗試并改進，說明它能通過自身練習來變得更好。故選A。
35．推理判斷題。根據“We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.”可知，工程師說“我們希望AI成為一個朋友，而不僅僅是富人可以使用的東西”，由此可以推測，這樣說是為了解釋為什么AI是免費的。故選A。
36．主旨大意題。根據第一段“January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-RI. This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as Open AI’s GPT-40, but it costs much less to build.”及全文可知，本文主要是為了介紹中國公司DeepSeek研發的低成本AI模型DeepSeek-R1。該模型能以較低的成本完成與頂級模型相似的任務，它通過自我學習和實踐來提高性能，還介紹了DeepSeek-R1的免費使用和修改政策。故選B。

I was now in my twenty-seventh year on the island. One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.
“Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!”
I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盜)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.”
There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy.
Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.
“Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.”
The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised.
Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard.
Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛亂), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.”
“Do these mutineers (叛軍) have guns ”
“Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.”
“All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”
Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan.
37．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island
A．Relaxed. B．Excited. C．Angry. D．Afraid.
38．What is the correct order of the following events
a. The three prisoners sat under a tree on the beach.
b. The writer and Friday saw a ship coming to their island.
c. The writer managed to talk with the three prisoners.
d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.
A．b-a-c-d B．b-c-a-d C．d-b-a-c D．d-a-b-c
39．Which of the following is true about the writer
A．He himself was a wild man indeed.
B．He hoped to get away from the island.
C．He lived on the island alone for 27 years.
D．He could fight the mutineers without guns.
40．Why did “I” help the captain
A．Because he was caught by the mutineers.
B．Because the ship was taken by the mutineers.
C．Because a mutiny happened on the ship.
D．Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island.
【答案】37．D 38．C 39．B 40．D
【導語】本文主要講述了主人公在荒島上生活了27年，某天發現一艘英國船靠近島嶼，隨后與星期五一起幫助被叛軍俘虜的船長奪回船只的故事。
37．細節理解題。根據“But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.”可知，星期五看到英國船時感到害怕。故選D。
38．細節理解題。根據“Last night there was a mutiny (叛亂), and the seamen took the ship from me.”可知，首先是叛軍奪取了船，d排第一；根據“There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!”可知，作者和星期五看到船靠近島嶼，b排第二；根據“The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us.”可知，三名囚犯坐在海灘的樹下，a排第三；根據“Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.”可知，作者設法與三名囚犯交談，c排第四。故選C。
39．推理判斷題。根據“But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”可知，作者希望離開島嶼。故選B。

閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Have you ever wondered why the letters on akeyboard are not in “ABC” order
The keyboard we use every day is called the QWERTY keyboard layout (布局). Q, W, E, R, T, Y are the first six letters on this layout, starting from the top left. 41 The first manual typewriter (手動打字機), with a keyboard which looked like a piano, was invented in the late 19th century. 42 However, people later found out that as the typing speed (速度) increased, some keys failed to come back to their places quickly. As a result, they got jammed (卡住) very easily. 43 To solve this problem, the QWERTY keyboard was invented. It placed keys in such a way that the most used letters were spaced out so that the keys were more likely to work freely.
44 With the arrival of the computer, the typists in offices were the same people who were to now use computers. This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device (設備). 45 It was easier to design the keyboards following the layout of typewriters, which was the QWERTY layout, and this continues even today.
A．But training required too much time and money.
B．However, another problem came about in the 1940s.
C．These typewriters did have the ABC keyboard layout.
D．Here are some tips to help you get used to the QWERTY keyboard.
E．To understand why we went with QWERTY, we need to go back in history.
F．Most typists ended up breaking the typewriter altogether when separating the keys.
G．The QWERTY keyboard is the most popular choice worldwide.
【答案】41．E 42．C 43．F 44．B 45．A
【導語】本文主要介紹了為什么我們的鍵盤不是按“ABC”順序排列的。
41．根據“The keyboard we use every day is called the QWERTY keyboard layout (布局). Q, W, E, R, T, Y are the first six letters on this layout, starting from the top left.”可知，此處介紹我們每天使用的鍵盤被稱為QWERTY鍵盤布局，結合下文可知是指鍵盤打字的歷史，選項E“為了理解我們為什么選擇QWERTY鍵盤，我們需要回顧一下歷史。”符合語境。故選E。
42．根據“The first manual typewriter (手動打字機), with a keyboard which looked like a piano, was invented in the late 19th century.”可知，第一臺手動打字機，鍵盤看起來像鋼琴，結合下句“However, people later found out that as the typing speed (速度)increased, some keys failed to come back to their places quickly.”可知，此處的內容和“隨著打字速度的提高，一些鍵無法快速返回原位”含義相反， 選項C“這些打字機確實有ARC鍵盤布局。”符合語境。故選C。
43．根據“As a result, they got jammed (卡住) very easily.”可知，第一臺手動打字機的鍵很容易卡住，選項F“大多數打字員在分離按鍵時，最后都把打字機弄壞了。”符合語境。故選F。
44．根據“With the arrival of the computer, the typists in offices were the same people who were to now use computers. This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device (設備).”可知，隨著電腦的出現，辦公室里的打字員就是現在操作電腦的人，這意味著打字員必須接受培訓才能使用新設備，選項B“然而，另一個問題在20世紀40年代出現 了。”符合語境，承接上下文。故選B。
45．根據“This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device(設備).”可知，此處是和培訓相關，選項A“但是培訓需要太多的時間和金錢。”符合語境。故選A。
四、根據句意及所給中文提示、首字母或英文解釋，寫出句中所缺單詞，每空限填一詞。（共8小題；每小題1分，滿分8分）
46．The government is encouraging people to use electric cars to reduce air (污染).
【答案】pollution
【詳解】句意：政府鼓勵人們使用電動汽車以減少空氣污染。根據“reduce”可知，此處填名詞作賓語；pollution“污染”符合句意。故填pollution。
47．Many birds fly back to the (北方) end of the country when warm weather comes.
【答案】northern
【詳解】句意：天氣一暖和，許多鳥就飛回國家的北端。根據“end”可知，此處修飾名詞，應用形容詞“北方的”northern，northern end“北端”。故填northern。
48．Their family moved away from the small village a (幾個) of years ago.
【答案】couple
【詳解】句意：他們的家人幾年前搬離了那個小村莊。根據“of years ago”可知，“幾個”couple，a couple of years ago“幾年前”。故填couple。

【答案】
54．have read 55．to get 56．However 57．more 58．found 59．farmer’s 60．as 61．listening 62．knives 63．with
【導語】本文主要講述了格列佛誤入大人國的經歷和成功逃脫的故事。
54．句意：最近，我讀了一本小說。根據“Recently”可知，此句是現在完成時“have/has+動詞過去分詞”，主語是I，助動詞用have，故填have read。
55．句意：格列佛設法擺脫了那些小個子。manage to do“設法做某事”，因此設空處填所給詞的不定式，故填to get。
56．句意：然而，海上發生了一場大風暴。根據“He found a boat and tried to sail home.”以及“there was a great storm at sea.”并結合語境可知，此處表轉折，空后有逗號，所以用however，故填However。
57．句意：他們都有20多米高。根據“than 20 meters tall.”可知，是20多米高，more than“超出”。故填more。
58．句意：一個農民先找到了格列佛，把他帶回家。根據“Gulliver first and took him home.”可知，設空處為一般過去時，謂語動詞用過去式found“找到”。故填found。
59．句意：農夫的女兒把格列佛帶到鎮上。設空處后有名詞“daughter”，這里指的農民的女兒，因此填所給詞的所有格形式farmer’s“農民的”。故填farmer’s。
60．句意：她把格列佛作為禮物送給國王。根據“a present”可知，這里指的是作為禮物，as“作為”。故填as。
61．句意：國王喜歡聽格列佛談論他的祖國和他的旅行。根據“The King enjoyed”可知，設空處后填動名詞，enjoy doing“喜歡做某事”，因此listening“聽”符合題意。故填listening。
62．句意：他們所有的東西，如椅子、桌子、刀叉和盤子，對格列佛來說都太大了，所以他們用小物件建造了一個小房子供他居住。根據“such as chairs, tables”可知，設空處填所給詞的復數形式knives“刀”，泛指類別。故填knives。
63．句意：他們所有的東西，如椅子、桌子、刀叉和盤子，對格列佛來說都太大了，所以他們用小物件建造了一個小房子供他居住。根據“small objects”可知，是帶有小物件的房子給他住，with“具有”。故填with。
六、任務型閱讀（共3小題，滿分7分）
請認真閱讀短文，用英語回答短文后的問題，并將答案寫在答題卡標有題號的橫線上。
What is space tourism
Space tourism is space travel for leisure purposes (休閑目的). What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C． Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.
Futurologists (未來學家) are scientists who try to predict (預測) what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come.
Space Adventure is currently the only company to send people into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world’s first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.
Following several successful trips into space, more companies are now thinking about the possibility of sending tourists into space. In order to make it cheaper, suborbital (亞軌道的) space travel is a choice for many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3—6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars, then come back down to earth. This costs about $200, 000 per person.
While it could be an amazing experience, there are some problems with space tourism. Many people believe that it could make global warming (全球變暖) worse and it is not good for the ozone layer (臭氧層). What’s more, space travel is only really for the rich people. There are still millions of people worldwide who couldn’t pay for it.
64．Which book described space tourism
65．When did the first man land on the moon
66．Do you think space travel will be easy to popularize (普及) in the future Why
【答案】64．2001: A space Odyssey. 65．In 1969. 66．No. Because the cost is too high.
【導語】本文主要介紹了太空旅行的發展以及帶來的問題。
64．根據“Space tourism…What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.”可知，《2001太空漫游》描述了太空旅行。故填2001: A space Odyssey.
65．根據“After the first man landed on the moon in 1969”可知，第一個人登上月球是在1969年。故填In 1969.
66．開放性試題，言之有理即可，參考答案：No. Because the cost is too high.
