　　A

　　Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879. He was a quiet child who spent much of his time alone. He was slow to talk and had difficulty learning to read. When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction — to the north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move.

　　Albert did not like school. The German schools of that time were not pleasant. Students could not ask questions. Albert said he felt as if he were in prison.

　　In 1905, Albert Einstein published some important papers in a German scientific magazine. They included one of the most important scientific documents in history. It explained what came to be called his “Special Theory of Relativity”. Ten years later, he expanded it to a “General Theory of Relativity”.

　　In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics. It was given to him not for his theories of relativity, but for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.

　　Albert Einstein left Germany when Adolph Hitler came to power in 1933. He moved to the United States to continue his research. Einstein became a citizen of the United States in 1940.

　　Einstein was a famous man, but you would not have known that by looking at him. His white hair was long and wild. He wore old clothes. He showed an inner joy when he was playing his violin or talking about his work. Students and friends said he had a way of explaining difficult ideas using images that were easy to understand.

　　Einstein spent the last twenty-five years of his life working on what he called a “unified field theory”. He hoped to find a common mathematical statement that could tie together all the different parts of physics. He did not succeed.

　　Albert Einstein died in 1955 at the age of seventy-six.

　　21. What can we learn about Albert Einstein in his childhood according to the passage?

　　A. He was quite clever and smart. B. He was curious about new things.

　　C. He hated talking with others. D. He was good at inventing things.

　　22. What’s the right order of the following events about Albert Einstein?

　　a. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics.

　　b. He became a citizen of the United States.

　　c. He left Germany for the United States.

　　d. He put forward his “General Theory of Relativity”.

　　e. He worked on a “unified field theory”.

　　A. d, e, a, c, b B. a, b, d, e, c C. d, c, b, a, e D. d, a, c, b, e

　　23. What’s the best title of the passage?

　　A. The discoveries of Albert Einstein.

　　B. Albert Einstein and his theories.

　　C. The life story of Albert Einstein.

　　D. How Albert Einstein won success.

　　B

　　In its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, “No, thanks. I’ve got a good horse under me.”

　　The city planners decided to build an underground drainage system, but there simply wasn’t enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.

　　An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city’s streets by as much as 12 feet.

　　This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like the Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building?

That’s where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews beneath the buildings’ foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman’s signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stayed open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn’t even notice anything was happening.

　　Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago’s early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago’s waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city’s next step was to clean the polluted river.

　　24. The author mentions the joke to show _______.

　　A. horses were fairly useful in Chicago

　　B. the Chicago people were very humorous

　　C. Chicago was very dangerous in the spring

　　D. Chicago’s streets were extremely muddy

　　25. The underlined word “hoist” in Paragraph 4 means “_______”.

　　A. lift B. change C. repair D. decorate

　　26. What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?

　　A. It interrupted the business of the hotel.

　　B. It separated the building from its foundation.

　　C. It went on smoothly as intended.

　　D. It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.

　　27. The passage is mainly about early Chicago’s _______.

　　A. successful engineers and their achievements

　　B. engineering problems and their solutions

　　C. environmental disasters and their causes

　　D. popular lifestyles and their influences

　　C

　　Oh, batteries. Can’t live with them, can’t live with them. It sounds like a power ballad, but it’s the story of our lives around here. We’ve been dealing with lofty***崇高的*** promises and batteries that kick the bucket far too early, for years now. And the fact that we’re still dealing with lead-acid batteries is sort of a puzzling thing to wrap one’s mind around. But all of that just might be changing. We won’t get our hopes too high until fuel cells become the viable***可行的*** alternative that we have been told that they are, but we strangely have more faith in a vegetable than a science lab to revolutionize the battery.

　　A vegetable? Yes, indeed. Yissum Research Development Company Ltd., the technology transfer arm of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, has just introduced what they’re calling “solid organic electric battery based upon treated potatoes.” In short, it’s a potato powered battery, and it’s as real as you’re hoping it is. The simple, sustainable, powerful device can potentially provide an immediate inexpensive solution to electricity needs in parts of the world lacking electrical equipment, but we’re hoping that it can work a similar amount of magic for developed nations as well.

　　Researchers at the Hebrew University discovered that the enhanced salt bridge capability of treated potato tubers can generate electricity through means readily available in the developing world. This cheap, easy to use green power source could substantially improve the quality of life of 1.6 billion people, including 32% of the developing non-OECD populations, currently lacking access to electrical equipment. Such a source can provide important needs, such as lighting, telecommunication, and information transfer.

　　The technical details are below, but here’s all you really need to know: potatoes may be a battery of the future and it’s a significant advancement that we all can be proud of.

　　28. What does the writer want to tell us?

　　A. The great revolutionary of battery thoroughly disappointed us.

　　B. Vegetables are being widely used in the world to make electricity.

　　C. Potatoes may power the batteries of the future and benefit people.

　　D. There are some potential powerful sources in developing countries.

　　29. What are the batteries of the future likely to be?

　　A. Complex but powerful. B. Recyclable and sustainable.

　　C. Costly but environment-friendly. D. Inexpensive and convenient.

　　30. According to the passage, the author’s attitude to the future of battery is ________.

　　A. neutral B. optimistic C. pessimistic D. doubtful

　　第二節短文選句***共5小題;每小題2分，滿分10分***

　　根據短文內容，從短文後的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項，選項中有兩項為多餘選項。

　　Did you ever tell somebody about something that had happened at work or school that day? If so, you were reporting that event. You may think being a reporter means simply getting one’s facts straight and telling a story that’s of broad, general interest. 　 31

　　To be a good reporter, you need to be able to read, write, speak and listen effectively. 　 32 　 So making your communication skills the best they can be is quite important if you want to be a good reporter. Keep a notebook or a journal, and remember to practice noting down what happens, whenever and wherever it happens.

　　In addition, you should obey these rules:

　　Strive for accuracy. When an issue is debatable, do your best to cover both sides. Don’t assume things, and never make up details. Reporters are supposed to seek and report the facts. Lying, making up stories or quotes, or misquoting someone will damage your credibility.

　　33 　As a reporter your job is to report the facts so that others can create their own opinions. Make sure you present all the important details without including your own viewpoint.

　　Generally, a story starts with who, what, where, when, why and how. Build details from there, beginning with the most important information and ending with the least important. 　 34 　 Seek out stories that you find interesting. You can report current events, or you can do feature stories, which are usually of a more general interest.

　　Carry a camera and a tape recorder so that you have them on hand whenever you need them. 　 35 　 Your news publisher may want to check your information before publishing it.

　　A. Be prepared to turn over your notes.

　　B. You also need to be able to make up stories.

　　C. You also need to be able to ask good questions.

　　D. Avoid expressing personal opinions.

　　E. But actually it’s not so easy.

　　F. Strive for expressing personal opinions objectively.

　　G. By including the most important information first, you will allow your editor to cut the back of the story if it runs too long.
