Punch someone and you may be sued by your victim, or even sent to prison. This is because the law 11 that such behavior is unacceptable and protects against physical forms of assault. When it comes to using words as weapons, however, the law is much more 12 . Consider how many times you have heard people 13 curses at someone in public.
What about criticizing someone with rude language or insults? What about making fun of someone because of the way he or she looks? The truth is, such behavior is commonplace.
Research has shown that these kinds of verbal assaults can 14 causing lasting emotional and psychological damage to those on the receiving end.

We should be considerate towards others, be mindful of their feelings, and choose our words carefully. After all, we would never want to hurt someone we care about.
你若打某人一拳，你很有可能被受害者告，或甚至被送進大牢，這是因為法律承認 這樣的行為是不被接受的，並且保護人們免於任何形式的身體傷害。但是當涉及到使用 言語做為武器傷人，法律則消極多了。
想想有多少次你曾經聽過別人在公開場合對他人口出惡言呢？還是聽過人們用粗魯 的語言或侮辱的方式批評他人嗎？亦或是看過他人因為別人的長像而嘲笑他(她)嗎?事 實上，這些行為是很常見的。
研究顯示，這些言語攻擊最後會導致遭受攻擊的那一方受到永久的情緒及心理傷 害。人們在長期遭受言語虐待後，會感到自尊降低。如果從這樣的角度看，語言虐待似 乎是比我們想像中的還嚴重。我們應該要多體諒他人，多關心他人感受，並在說話的時 候，小心選擇自己的用字。畢竟，我們不想傷害我們在乎的人。

Between 1870 and 1900, nearly 12 million immigrants came to the United States. The majority came from Germany, Ireland, and, England. 31 At first, they were attracted to North America by the gold rush in California and many looked for gold on their own or worked for other miners. After the gold rush, some Chinese immigrants worked as agricultural laborers, with railroad construction crews throughout the West, and at low-paying industrial jobs. 32
Later, with the beginning of difficult economic times in the 1870s, other immigrants and European Americans began to compete for jobs originally reserved for the Chinese. 33 Many European Americans called for the Chinese immigrants to be kicked out of the United States. The result was the Chinese Exclusion Act, passed by Congress in 1882. This piece of legislation prevented any more Chinese immigration to the United States for almost the next 100 years.

接著，隨著1870年代所開始的經濟不景氣，其他移民和歐裔美國人開始和中國人競 爭原本保留給中國人的工作，隨著競爭，帶來的是對於中國人的厭惡甚至種族的仇恨。
許多歐裔美國人要求將中國移民逐出美國，導致了1882年國會通過的《排華法案》。這項 法案使得接下來的近一百年裡，阻止了中國人移民到美國。
儘管中國人所面臨的種種障礙，他們仍逐漸在美國社會當中被接受。許多年來，許

五、閱讀測驗（占 2 4分）
說明︰第35題至第46題，每題2分。
第35至38題為題組
One's teenage years are difficult because teenagers have so much pressure from school, their parents, and changes in their bodies. As a result, it is necessary for teenagers to learn how pressure affects them and how they can deal with it.
Under pressure, the body reacts in many ways. Both heartbeat and breathing become faster, which sometimes leads to headaches and high blood pressure. Muscles become tight and even painful. Teenagers under pressure may be more sensitive to noise and to their surroundings and feel angry or sad easily. It may be hard to get enough sleep, and teenagers may feel tired even after they sleep for a long time. Pressure may keep teenagers from focusing, and make them forget things easily. These problems often make teenagers feel unhappy and think that life is miserable.
共 15 頁 英文考科 There are helpful ways for teenagers to get away from pressure. Firstly, playing sports does them good because healthy bodies make for healthy minds. Secondly, eating healthy foods and getting enough rest can help them relax. Thirdly, happy thoughts allow them to look on the bright side of life. Finally, talk to a friend or a trusted adult. Troubled teenagers should remember that they're never alone－there's always someone to talk to. Keeping bad feelings inside can cause health problems and can even lead unhappy teens to kill themselves.
Without a doubt, pressure is a part of life for teenagers. By finding ways to rise above pressure, they can go through their hard times with hope and happiness.
一個人的青少年時期可能是痛苦的，因為青少年承受太多來自學校、父母，以及自 己身體變化的壓力。因此，對青少年來說，知道壓力如何影響他們，以及他們可以如何 應付它，是很必要的。
身體在壓力之下會有很多不同的反應方式。心跳和呼吸都會加快，有時候則會導致 頭痛及高血壓，而肌肉會變得緊繃甚至到會痠痛的程度。在壓力之下的青少年或許會對 聲音及周遭環境感到敏感，變得易怒或容易感到悲傷。他們有可能會難以睡眠充足，甚 至在他們睡了很久之後，還是覺得很疲倦。壓力可能會讓他們難以專心，讓他們容易忘 記事情。這些問題都會讓青少年覺得不開心，還會讓他們覺得人生是悲慘的。
有些受用的方法可以讓青少年從壓力中脫身。首先，做運動對他們有益，因為健康 的身體造就健康的心智。其次，吃健康食物及得到充足的休息可以幫助他們放鬆。第三 點，想些開心的事情可以幫助他們看到生命的光明面。最後，和朋友或是可信任的成人 說說話，也有幫助。遇到麻煩的青少年應該要謹記一件事，他們從來都不是孤軍奮鬥—
一定會有人可以和你商量的。一直把不好的情緒壓抑在心裡，會造成健康問題，更可能 導致憂鬱的青少年自殺。
無疑地，壓力是青少年生活中的一個事實，藉由駕馭壓力，他們才能夠用希望與快 樂渡過難關。

第39至42題為題組
Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil, in liquid solutions. Why would we want to grow things without soil? Well, it is usually because there isn't any!
For example, one American airline used hydroponics techniques in the 1930s to grow vegetables on a rocky island that had no soil. Airplanes flying from the USA to Guam and back again had to stop on the island, and the passengers had to be kept supplied with fresh vegetables.
Space is another area where hydroponics could be useful. NASA has shown great interest in this field of research. Of course, growing plants in a conventional way is very difficult on a spacecraft, and would be even more difficult on another planet! NASA hopes that one day hydroponics will allow astronauts to grow their own food while they are in space and perhaps even establish colonies on the moon or Mars.
It's not just in space or remote islands that hydroponics can be useful, however. One American company is using hydroponics techniques to build rooftop gardens on large buildings inside major cities. This could help tackle the problem of global food shortages. What's more, because the food does not have to be transported over long distances, it is cheaper and fresher!
As the examples above indicate, hydroponics is a fascinating branch of scientific research that may bring us many benefits in the future.
水耕栽培是不靠土壤、以水溶液栽種植物的科學。為什麼我們東西不種土裡呢？嗯，
這通常是因為根本沒土！
例如，一家美國航空公司1930年代用水耕栽培技術，在沒有土壤的岩島種出蔬菜。
在美國和關島之間來回的飛機必須停靠在那座島，補充乘客需要的新鮮蔬菜。
太空是水耕栽培可能派上用場的地方。太空總署對這方面的研究極有興趣。當然，
要在太空船上以傳統方式栽種植物很難，在別的星球上更難！太空總署希望，有一天，
水耕栽培可讓上了太空的太空人自己種食物，甚至能在月球或火星上建立殖民地。
但不是只在太空或偏遠島嶼，水耕栽培才有用。一家美國公司正利用水耕栽培技術，
在主要都市裡的大型建築頂樓蓋屋頂花園。這可能有助解決全球糧食短缺的問題。更重 要的是，因為食物不必長途運送，將更便宜也更新鮮。
如上述實例所示，水耕栽培是科學研究中令人著迷的分支，我們未來可能受惠良多。

Girl-empowering books could give inspirations to girls and encourage them to dream big.
With the willingness to fall and get back up, girls will be on their way to making their dreams come true. The following is information about two strong women, who write down their personal stories that are full of fascinating insights.
In the book, Maye Musk first narrates her marriage to a husband who verbally and physically abused her. With bruises all over her body, she was constantly beaten up by her husband even in public. When she was finally allowed to divorce, he threatened her by chasing her with a kitchen knife in hand.
Maye steeled herself and ended up moving out with her children.
Maye has moved several times in her entire life, even in her fifties. Moving means to start over again, get new licenses as a dietitian, and make new friends. She manifests her persistence by continuing to model regardless of age. At the age of 71, she became the CoverGirl model and reached the highlight of her career.
In her book, she gives sound advice such as “Get out of a bad situation; if nothing is changing and you are unhappy, you change.”
Her figure hasn’t always been perfect, and stresses and unhappiness are why. The book can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of gender or age.
Stephanie Land used to have a promising life in her twenties with plans to attend college and pursue a writing career. However, her pregnancy has changed everything.
Believing that she ruined his biking trip and his life, her drunk boyfriend turned vicious.
Things went downhill and ended with a call to a domestic violence hotline and a divorce.
There could be a series of “shoulds.” She should have gone to college. She shouldn’t have raised the kid alone. She should have done things differently. The book answers all the shoulds in a calm voice. It’s a shock to see how a smart, talented woman ended up as a homeless mother who relies on public benefits and earns low wages by cleaning houses.
In the book, the sense of isolation as a maid and her struggle of living in poverty can all make the readers feel sympathetic and relate to her difficulty.

範例：
Dear Samantha,
I am writing this letter because I don't know any other ways to better express my deep gratitude to you. High school life hasn't been easy for me, but you made it all bearable. I am always a little awkward when it comes to socializing, and I guess that's why I never really had any friends until I met you. You came into my world when you introduced yourself to me on the first day of school. From that day on, we talked about everything from school life to our shared hobbies. I am so blessed with having you in my life. There were many precious moments I will bear in mind forever. If my memory serves me right, one time I was frustrated when I failed math so badly and was thinking about giving up studying. It is you who comforted me, dragged me out of the abyss of depression and offered to tutor me. With your help, I improved so much on the next math exam.
I am really grateful to you for this friendship we have shared together and for all the assistance you have given me. Honestly speaking, I don't think I could survive high school without you. Thank you so much. No matter how far we may drift apart after graduation, I will cherish our friendship from the bottom of my heart.
Love yours, Brianne
