“With the global labor market battle underway, the days when Taiwan could bring in large numbers of migrant workers are numbered.At the same time, the emergence of the poaching of workers as the ‘new normal’ indicates that treating migrant workers as cheap labor is no longer viable.Taiwan is entering the ranks of developed countries, and the answer to its labor bottleneck may be to turn migrant workers into immigrants.” Do you agree or disagree with the above quoted passage？Please elaborate your argument in no more than 250 words and be sure to support it with sufficient evidence.

In 2024, the U.S.was the world’s dominant travel and tourism market, according to a 2024 Economic Impact Trends Report by the World Travel ＆ Tourism Council(WTTC).In 2023, a record-breaking $2.36 trillion was added to the U.S.economy from tourism.Then Tourism Economics predicted a 9% increase in international arrivals in 2025 compared to 2024.However, political tensions and negative perceptions of the U.S.have been keeping international tourists away, steering many travelers to visit Canada instead.As a result, Tourism Economics experienced a complete 180; it revised its predictions to a 9.4% decline in international visits to the U.S., and more drop again in early August.

近來有研究結果顯示，當學生接受雙語教育時，他們的英文閱讀理解能力呈現了顯著的進步，這樣突出的表現尤其顯示在閱讀推理、文本分析兩個方面。然而，這樣的進步並不是全面的，仍有學生因基礎能力不足或無法適應雙語教育，造成進步幅度有限的學習結果，亦可以說，雙語教育的成效因學生而異。但在學生的語言學習動機、課程參與程度上， 雙語教育都顯示了正面的影響效果。

一、英譯中：請將下段英文譯成正確、流暢的中文（20分）
Governments, particularly in large democracies, often suffer from institutional inertia, fragmented communication, and overlapping responsibilities.A centralized efficiency department could systematically audit agencies, implement data-driven reforms, and introduce digital tools to reduce paperwork and improve service delivery.By fostering interdepartmental coordination and leveraging artificial intelligence, this department could help ensure that taxpayer money is utilized optimally.
二、中譯英：請將下段中文譯成正確、流暢的英文（20分） 波音公司曾是美國航空工程的典範，但近年卻成為企業管理失當與監管鬆散風險的代表。這場危機始於兩起致命的 737 MAX 空難－－分別發生於 2018年的印尼與 2019年的衣索比亞，共造成 346 人喪生。調查指出，肇事原因主要來自一套有缺陷的自動飛行控制系統（MCAS），更令人震驚的是，波音未能適當向飛行員與監管機構揭露該系統的風險。後續調查揭露，波音內部的企業文化過度強調產品快速上市與股東利益， 犧牲了工程品質與安全標準。更嚴重的是，美國聯邦航空總署（FAA） 在飛機審核過程中竟大幅依賴波音自行認證，引發外界對監管機構是否受到業界壓力、喪失獨立性的深切質疑。
三、應用文寫作：請依提示寫一封英文電子郵件（120～150 字）（20分） 根據 OpenAI 資料，韓國是僅次於美國、擁有最多 ChatGPT 付費用戶的國家。OpenAI 表示，因應韓國市場對 ChatGPT 服務的需求大幅成長， 該公司將在首爾設立首間辦公室，並已在韓國設立在地法人。請寫一封英文信邀請 OpenAI 公司於明年也在臺灣設立辦公室。

在公共資源有限、社會對政府期待又高的情況下，設立一個「政府效能部門」（Department of Government Efficiency），將有助於提升政府施政的成效、透明度與問責機制，成為推動行政革新的關鍵力量。這個部門可以針對各項政策的成本效益、透明度與問責性進行專業評估，提供具體可行的建議，優化行政流程，並確保政策執行具有成本效益。特別是在大型民主國家，經常會遇到制度僵化、部會溝通不順或資源錯置等問題， 設立這樣的部門更顯得必要。
三、英文作文：請根據說明寫一篇約 250～300 字的英文作文（40分）
近幾十年來，職業運動員的薪資，特別是在如 NBA 等主要聯盟中的球員，大幅上升。有些運動員每年透過合約、代言與媒體曝光可賺取數千萬美元。相比之下，像是教師、醫生和急難救助人員等重要職業，儘管對社會貢獻重大，薪資卻往往相對微薄。這種懸殊的差距引發了關於「運動員的收入是否過高、與其對社會的貢獻不成比例」的爭論。
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement？Professional athletes, such as NBA players, are paid too much money compared to other important professions like teachers, doctors, and emergency rescuers.Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

Fan behavior represents a complex interplay of psychological, social, and cultural factors.It encompasses a range of practices, including attending live events, consuming and promoting related media, and participating in online and offline communities.Such behaviors often foster a sense of belonging and collective identity, reinforcing social bonds among individuals with shared interests.From a sociocultural perspective, fandom can be seen as a site of meaning-making where fans actively construct and negotiate their identities.However, maladaptive fan behavior may include obsession, hostility toward rivals, or intrusions on public figures.As fandoms increasingly operate within digital spaces, scholars emphasize the need to examine how technological affordances amplify both positive engagement and problematic practices, with implications for cultural production and social dynamics.

水資源短缺已成為影響數十億人口的全球性挑戰。氣候變遷、人口增長及非永續的水資源管理等因素加劇了對這一關鍵資源的競爭。在許多地區，清潔水的獲取依然受限，導致健康危機、糧食不安全，以及圍繞水權的衝突。情況在乾旱和半乾旱地區尤為嚴峻，該些地區的乾旱發生頻率和嚴重程度正不斷增加中。應對水資源短缺需要整合水資源管理、投資永續基礎設施，並進行國際合作以確保公平分配。長期解決方案也須優先考量生態系統保護和技術創新，包括水資源回收與海水淡化。

一、英譯中：請將下面這段英文譯成正確、流暢的中文（30分）
In recent times, trivial lawsuits have surged, diverting attention from more significant matters.These cases often involve minor disputes, like traffic violations or contract disagreements, and are sometimes used for political motives, such as seeking revenge on political opponents or silencing outspoken individuals.Beyond straining court resources, these lawsuits diminish public trust in the judicial system.They reflect a societal shift where financial gain or misuse of legal measures replaces personal accountability, promoting litigation over practical resolution.This trend questions whether current laws provide excessive freedom for baseless claims, prompting the need for legal reforms to curb meaningless lawsuits while ensuring legitimate grievances receive due attention.Promoting responsible attitudes towards litigation can foster a fairer and more efficient legal environment.

“Land art,” an art using the environment to make an artistic point, is consistently debated for its ethics.Many of its artworks are about the relationship between humans and the natural environment, including the harm we often do to our planet.While many deem this form of art as a necessary evil, others believe that the harm to the environment caused by land art cannot be justified by the intention to spread awareness to a cause, however laudable.Some infamous instances include surrounding islands with floating fabric, and wrapping trees in plastic.These works have not only sparked ethical debates but ecological and legal ones as well.

In contemporary society, the relentless pace of life and growing preoccupation with material aspirations and individual objectives have led many to overlook the essence of gratitude.The efforts and kindness of others are frequently taken as givens, with expressions of appreciation or reciprocation becoming increasingly scarce.This shift has strained bonds with family and friends, and even the profound sense of indebtedness owed to one's parents can sometimes be disregarded.Technology's convenience has further fostered detachment, often replacing deep, face-to-face interactions with more superficial exchanges.Consequently, a culture of indifference and self-centeredness has taken root, normalizing ungrateful behavior and inviting a deeper contemplation of these evolving social dynamics.

“Net zero emissions” is a global trend, and many countries are implementing carbon fees to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.Taiwan plans to begin collecting carbon fees in 2026, marking the official start of a “carbon-cost era.” The fee structure will include a standard rate and a discounted rate.To qualify for the discounted rate, companies must create a “reduction plan” that outlines their strategies for lowering carbon emissions.Such strategies could involve switching to low-carbon fuels, improving energy efficiency, or using renewable energy sources.The introduction of carbon fees is an important step for Taiwan toward a low-carbon society and is a necessary response to the global climate crisis.

一、英譯中：（25分）
Libraries are one of the most enduring features of the academy, central to the values and the practice of scholarship.However, in a period of austerity, libraries are increasingly being asked to justify their existence.Perhaps the deepest, yet most intangible, contribution that libraries make is to provide a physical manifestation of the scholarly ethos that universities exist to instruct and preserve.There is a risk that this intrinsic value may not be recognized by future generations of researchers who work in an online world.In building the evidence as to libraries’ contribution to research, it is important to stress that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts and that the value of the library is as a crucial cornerstone and representation of the values of the academy and of scholarship.

根據聯合國數據，印度剛剛超越了中國，成為世界上人口最多的國家。許多人在問的一個問題就是：印度是否有可能超越中國，進而成為世界超 級大國呢？在經濟規模、地緣政治影響力與軍力三個方面，中國仍然採領 先地位，但專家們認為，這一格局正在改變。2001年諾貝爾經濟學獎得主 認為，印度的時代已然來臨。他告訴BBC：「印度終將能與中國匹配。中 國經濟會放慢，但印度不會。」但儘管有著很大的潛力，印度也面臨了許 多挑戰。中國是世界第二大經濟體，而印度僅排名第五。印度中產階層規 模相對較小，需要下重本投資教育、提升生活水凖、實現性別均等和經濟 改革，方有可能實現「中國式」的爆發增長。要當世界超級大國，光靠人 口和經濟還不夠格，還要看地緣政治與軍事力量，印度在這些方面還望塵 莫及。
三、英譯中：（35分）
Capital punishment(death penalty)is the premeditated and planned taking of a human life by a government in response to a crime committed by that legally convicted person.In the past, capital punishment has been practiced by most societies, although currently only 58 nations actively practice it, with 96 countries having abolished it.Although many nations have abolished capital punishment, over 60% of the world’s population lives in countries where executions take place.This is because the People’s Republic of China, India, the United States of America, and Indonesia, which are the four most populous countries in the world, continue to apply the death penalty.
Many believe that the death penalty should be abolished for several reasons.Firstly, the death penalty is very expensive to maintain.Most people do not realize that carrying out one death sentence costs 2-5 times more than keeping that same criminal in prison for the rest of his or her life.This expense comes as a result of the seemingly endless appeals, additional required procedures, and legal wrangling involved in the judicial process.Secondly, the death penalty clogs up the court system.The U.S.court system goes to enormous lengths before allowing a death sentence to be carried out.All the necessary appeals, motions, hearings, and briefs monopolize much of the time of judges, attorneys, and other court employees as well as use up courtrooms and facilities.Third, the death penalty is an ineffective deterrent to violent crime.Life in prison is a far more effective deterrent than the death penalty, which, in some cases, actually represents an act of clemency for the criminal.With a death sentence, the suffering is over in an instant.With life in prison, however, the pain goes on for decades.Prisoners are confined to a cage, living in an environment of rape and violence where they are treated as animals.

一、英譯中：（30分）
In a time of stark inequality and stalling economic growth, young people feel they are struggling to keep up.In recent years, a new discourse has taken hold in the society in China.Phrases like “involution” and “lying flat” have become shorthand for a sense that what is required to live an adequate life has become unattainable or unsustainable.High rates of youth unemployment and poor prospects for university graduates mean that competition for scarce jobs is extremely intense, with those who find work often exploited by employers safe in the knowledge that they can easily replace burned-out employees.The same means of wealth creation available to previous generations are no longer as accessible.These intergenerational dynamics entrench inequality and a pervasive sense of futility among the young.
二、中譯英：（30分）不少人認為現在年輕人喜歡追求小確幸，明明月薪不高，卻常常花錢買昂貴的飾品，或是去豪華的吃到飽餐廳，每隔一段時間就請假出國遊玩。在人們眼裡，這些小確幸行為是沒有遠見的象徵，寧願把錢花在當下立即性的快樂，而不願意忍一時去存錢買房或是完成其他更高遠的目標。有人批評小確幸讓人變得目光狹隘、甘於現狀，放棄追求大格局、大氣魄的大事業；也有人認為小確幸只是一種帶來虛假幸福感的麻醉劑，讓人相信世界的美好，而對於眼前正在發生的醜陋與困境視而不見。

Allies of President Yoon Suk Yeol are attacking what they see as an existential threat to South Korea, and they are mincing few words.The head of Mr.Yoon’s party has called for the death sentence for a case of “high treason.” The culture ministry has vowed to root out what it called an “organized and dirty” conspiracy to undermine the country’s democracy.
In this case, the accused is not a foreign spy, but a Korean news outlet that has published articles critical of Mr.Yoon and his government.
The president, a former prosecutor, is turning to lawsuits, state regulators and criminal investigations to clamp down on speech that he calls disinformation, efforts that have largely been aimed at news organizations.Since Mr.Yoon was elected last year, the police and prosecutors have repeatedly raided the homes and newsrooms of journalists whom his office has accused of spreading “fake news.”
Some South Koreans accuse Mr.Yoon of repurposing the expression as justification for defamation suits and to mobilize prosecutors and regulators to threaten penalties and criminal investigations.
三、Translate the following passage into Chinese（30分）
Former President Donald J.Trump, on a day set aside to celebrate those who have defended the United States in uniform, promised to honor veterans in part by assailing what he portrayed as America’s greatest foe: the political left.
Using incendiary and dehumanizing language to refer to his opponents, Mr.Trump vowed to “root out” what he called “the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.”
“The threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous and grave than the threat from within,” Mr.Trump said Saturday in a nearly two-hour Veterans Day address in Claremont, N.H.
Mr.Trump accused Democrats and President Biden of trying to roll back his efforts to expand veteran access to health care, causing soaring inflation, pushing the country to the brink of World War III, endangering the troops in Afghanistan and of lying and rigging elections.
He also promised to care for America’s veterans, reviving a hyperbolic claim that he made throughout his 2016 campaign that Democrats “treat the illegal aliens just pouring into our country better than they treat our veterans.”

一、英譯中：請將下面文章譯成中文。（每小題 20分，共 40分）
(一)George Clooney spent his first years in Hollywood getting rejected at auditions.He wanted the producers and directors to like him, but they didn’t and it hurt and he blamed the system for not seeing how good he was.This perspective should sound familiar.It’s the dominant viewpoint for the rest of us on job interviews, when we pitch clients, or try to connect with an attractive stranger in a coffee shop.We subconsciously submit to what Seth Godin, author and entrepreneur, refers to as the “tyranny of being picked.”
Everything changed for Clooney when he tried a new perspective.He realized that casting is an obstacle for producers, too—they need to find somebody, and they’re all hoping that the next person to walk in the room is the right somebody.Auditions were a chance to solve their problem, not his.From Clooney’s new perspective, he was that solution.He was the answer to their prayers.That was what he began projecting in his auditions—not exclusively his acting skills but that he was the man for the job.
(二)There was little evidence that Demosthenes was destined to become the greatest orator of Athens, let alone all of history.He was born sickly and frail with a nearly debilitating speech impediment.At seven years old, he lost his father.And then things got worse.The large inheritance left to him—intended to pay for tutors and the best schools—was stolen by the guardians entrusted to protect him.They refused to pay his tutors, depriving him of the education he was entitled to.
Here was this fatherless, effeminate, awkward child who no one understood, who everyone laughed at.Not exactly the boy you’d expect would soon hold the power to mobilize a nation to war by his voice alone.Disadvantaged by nature, abandoned by the people he depended on, nearly every wrong that can be inflicted on a child befell Demosthenes.None of it was fair, none of it was right.Most of us, were we in his position, would have given up right then and there.But Demosthenes did not.

“We are back to a cold-war mode,” says Norway’s Border Commissioner.The Arctic had been a rare area of successful co-operation between Russia and the West, but now the fragile system that has made it stable and predictable is under threat.
“The cold winds in the north did not originate there,” quips Norway’s Prime Minister.“No issue, no region, no matter of co-operation is unaffected by Ukraine,” he adds, “and what the full implications will be for the Arctic, we are yet to know the full extent.”
Virtually all contact with Russia in the Arctic has now stopped.Of the eight Arctic states, five are members of NATO, and two, Finland and Sweden, have now applied to join.Russia is the eighth.The Arctic Council, the main forum for dialogue among the eight, has been paused since March.
For the moment, the other Arctic states are focusing on finding a way to resume co-operation among themselves, without Russia.The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the global average and the Nordic countries, at least, consider collaboration on scientific research urgent.
The war in Ukraine and the breakdown in Arctic dialogue could also exacerbate tensions caused by Russia’s growing military presence in the region.Russian defense planning has preoccupied Scandinavian military strategists.

美國勞工部 6月10日公布 5月消費者物價指數（CPI）較去年同期飆升8.6%，通膨達 40年來新高，並無緩解跡象，主因仍在俄烏戰爭持續，造成能源與糧食價格上攀等供給面問題。外界關注中央銀行是否跟進美國腳步。專家解釋，升息讓房貸、車貸成本增加，若家庭支出增加幅度過大，勢必排擠其他消費，最後可能造成經濟衰退。國內應暫緩升息，畢竟疫情仍處高原期、內需衰退，升息打擊消費，與目前政府刺激消費政策抵觸。專家提醒，一旦美國產生消費排擠，臺灣出口將受劇烈影響，將壓抑消費、投資，此衝擊不容小覷。

威勒米爾（Willeumier）博士從事大腦方面的研究，非常擅長處理精密的 大腦影像。她曾根據看過的病例和腦部影像資料中得知，當人們改變生活習慣、並加以保持，就能大幅改善大腦的健康狀態。威勒米爾博士指出，人們從 40 歲開始，平均每 10年大腦容量減少 5%。如果人們可以開始保護大腦，讓很多生活細節成為習慣，就有可能減緩大腦容量減少的幅度。人們可以透過一些日常生活習慣，來活化自己的大腦，如快走10分鐘、吃黑巧克力、坐直伸展背肌、練習使用左手、學習新單字、在腦中預演當日行程、放空 10分鐘及用香味消除壓力。這些活動都對活化大腦極有幫助。

I.Briefly describe in English what you know about each of the following countries:(8 pts each, 40 pts total)
1.Guinea
2.Australia
3.Afghanistan
4.North Korea
5.Iran
II.Translate each of the following passages into Chinese
1.California voters will decide whether to recall Gov.Gavin Newsom on Tuesday, concluding an idiosyncratic election that has been held in the middle of a pandemic and closely watched as one of the first big indicators of the country’s political direction since President Biden took office.
Democrats feel increasingly confident, predicting that Newsom will prevail and avert what would be a disaster for the party in California, the nation’s most-populous state.If Newsom is recalled, his likely replacement would be Larry Elder, a conservative talk radio host who has made a career bashing liberal causes.
But the fact that the Democratic governor of a state Biden won by nearly 30 percentage points is being forced to fight to hold on to his post has highlighted the vulnerabilities of leaders who seemed well positioned before the coronavirus pandemic.
Democrats are trying to energize voters without former President Donald J.Trump on the ballot, and a loss — or even a narrow victory —
would raise questions about the political clout of Biden, who campaigned with Newsom on Monday night.
The leading Republicans vying to replace Newsom have embraced Trump and his baseless claims of a stolen election, an early signal of the party’s unwillingness or inability to distance itself from the former president.(30 pts)
2.Facebook provided a data set to a consortium of social scientists last year that had serious errors, affecting the findings in an unknown number of academic papers, the company acknowledged on Friday.
The company used a regular monthly call on Friday with roughly three dozen researchers affiliated with Social Science One, a consortium founded in 2018 that Facebook hails as a model for collaboration with academics, to admit the error and apologize for the impact on their work.
The data concerns the effect of social media on elections and democracy and includes what web addresses Facebook users click on, along with other information.The error resulted from Facebook accidentally excluding data from U.S.users who had no detectable political leanings — a group that amounted to roughly half of all of Facebook’s users in the United States.
Gary King, a Harvard professor who co-chairs Social Science One, said dozens of papers from researchers affiliated with Social Science One had relied on the data since Facebook shared the flawed set in February 2020.But he said the impact could be determined only after Facebook provided corrected data that could be reanalyzed.(30 pts)

三、試述下列名詞之意涵：請就以下五段短文中畫線的五個英文詞語以中文做適當的定義與解釋（每小題 3分，共 15分）
(一)Many governments have implemented the use of biometrics to enhance their safety measures when issuing passports, visas or residence permits to people who migrate to their countries.Biometric measures rely on a computerized system that scans and collects a person’s special traits such as his/her fingerprints, face, iris, retina or ear features.This storing of the data can also be utilized to look for or verify a person’s identity to reduce the mistakes that might happen when providing the immigration services to travelers.
(二)Climate migration is a unique kind of environmental migration; it describes a type of migration that is caused by climate change.In this context, people who are environmental refugees are usually forced to move away from their places of origin because they cannot live any longer in their residency where their living environment has much been damaged by the drastic change of climate.They usually have to adapt to a different living surrounding when they move to stay in a different place.
(三)It is common for most people to express xenophobia when they encounter strangers, foreigners or immigrants who also stay in their communities or countries.People often tend to discriminate against someone who is different from them.But this dislike or fear of strangers and foreigners from other countries can be strong and unreasonable sometimes.Therefore, it is important that the government should introduce the practice of social inclusion to reduce discrimination against immigrants.
(四)Some governments carry out the visa waiver program(VWP)by allowing some countries to travel to their nations for a certain phase of time without the need to apply for a visa.But travelers who wish to use this kind of scheme still need to seek for authorization of the countries they plan to travel to.Countries such as the United States impose certain limits on visitors who are eligible for using this service.
(五)Some countries issue a visa to a family member of an international student in their country as the subsequent entrant.A family member of this kind usually applies for this visa to join or reunite with their family members who study in a foreign country.This kind of visa enables the subsequent entrant to provide emotional, psychological, or mental support to the international student.They are also allowed to stay during the duration of the stay of the international student.

Processes of amending or changing a constitution are normally provided in the document itself.The United States Constitution has only been amended 26 times since it went into effect in 1789, and ten of those amendments consist of the Bill of Rights that was added in 1791.Because the amendment process is time-consuming and cumbersome, the fundamental law of the nation is not easily subject to the whims of special-interest group, factions, or even the majority of the population at any given time.The shorter and more basic a constitution is, the less likely it is to be changed.The most successful constitutions confine themselves primarily to the procedures of government.

Facebook has kept internal research secret for two years that suggests its Instagram app makes body image issues worse for teenage girls, according to a leak from the tech firm.
Since at least 2019, staff at the company have been studying the impact of their product on its younger users’ states of mind.Their research has repeatedly found that it is harmful for a large proportion, and particularly teenage girls.
Comprised of findings from focus groups, online surveys and diary studies in 2019 and 2020, the Instagram research shows for the first time how aware the company is of its product’s impact on the mental health of teenagers.And yet, in public, executives at Facebook, which has owned Instagram since 2012, have consistently downplayed its negative impact on teenagers.
四、英文新聞寫作：（30分）
Summarize the following news report in 100 words.
If watching Squid Game means the prospect of playing red light, green light now fills you with nerve-shredding terror rather than fond childhood memories, you aren’t alone.
The Korean thriller, which tells the story of debt-ridden people competing for a huge crash prize in a deadly series of children’s games, has become Netflix’s biggest ever series launch - streamed by 111 million users in its first 28 days.
In doing so it knocked Bridgerton off the top spot, making clear that Korean dramas -K-dramas for short - have most certainly been given the green light by audiences worldwide.
So, how can we understand this rise, and what are some of the other K-dramas to look out for if you’re a new convert? Squid Game’s breakthrough popularity marks the latest wave in a Korean culture tsunami that’s built throughout the west in recent years.
The show joins K-pop artists such as BTS and Blackpink becoming household names in music, to films like Parasite and Minari upending Hollywood to achieve Oscars recognition and success.
But the K-drama takeover is far from the overnight sensation it may first seem.Although they’ve only recently gripped worldwide audiences, K-dramas have been popular in Asia for decades.
Increasing liberalisation throughout the country in the 90s saw huge amounts of money poured into the entertainment industry.As Japan battled economic decline and China rose, South Korean culture pounced - offering TV that was both more relatable than US shows and morally palatable to Beijing.
Over the next decade it challenged Japanese might to become a new purveyor of Asian cool, with 20% of viewers in Japan watching 2003 drama Winter Sonata.A 2011 report by the Korean Culture and Information Service concluded: “In many Asian cities, Korean dramas seem to be influencing lifestyles and consumer behaviour, which speaks to their cultural appeal”.

Fallout from the coronavirus pandemic will shrink the size of the US economy by roughly $8 trillion over the next decade, according to new projections released by the Congressional Budget Office(CBO)on Monday.In a letter to US lawmakers, the CBO said the US economy will grow by $7.9 trillion less from 2020 to 2030 than it had projected in January.That amounts to a 3 percent decline in US gross domestic product compared to its initial estimate.The stark illustration of the pandemic’s potential economic impact comes one week after White House officials confirmed they would not release their own updated projections this summer in their annual “mid-session” budget review.The pandemic will hamper US economic growth by reducing the amount of consumer spending and closing numerous businesses, the CBO said.Part of the impact will be mitigated by the more than $2 trillion the federal government has already approved in emergency spending for households and businesses.

109年公務人員高等考試三級考試試題32070【類科】新聞（選試英文）【科目】新聞英文【考試時間】2小時
一、Please rewrite the following news into a short Chinese news paragraph of around 150 words.Provide your news with a headline and organize your news writing with an introduction, a body and a conclusion（35分）
Only a few months ago residents of the impossibly picturesque Austrian village of Hallstatt were debating how to stem the influx of tourists thronging its narrow streets, nestled between soaring mountains and a sparkling lake.
Careful what you wish for: With the collapse in international travel brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour groups that used to jam the streets —
with up to 100 coaches arriving daily in the high season —
have disappeared.
In pre-coronavirus times the main concern for locals was that Hallstatt would be turned into an open-air theme park and become yet another symbol of the phenomenon of “overtourism.”
With 1 million visitors per year for just 750 residents, the tiny village competed with the likes of Venice and Barcelona in the rankings of most tourists per inhabitant.
“There are more than 600,000 photos of Hallstatt on Instagram,” Hallstatt Mayor Alexander Scheutz said.The number of coaches coming to Hallstatt doubled in the space of five years, reaching 21,254 last year.Many of the bigger tour groups were made up of visitors from Taiwan, China, South Korea and the US.
While today the virus has brought a measure of serenity to the village, the debate on how tourism can be made more sustainable has returned even more forcefully.A growing divide had been opening up between the local winners and losers from the tourism boom, Scheutz said.
As Austria was easing its COVID-19 lockdown last month, Hallstatt brought in a new system for limiting coach numbers — only for the coaches to vanish anyway.While the car park has been full on the weekends since lockdown eased, current visitors are overwhelmingly Austrians or people from neighboring countries.
“The way it is now reminds us of how Hallstatt was before, and we’d like it to stay that way,” said one local climbing the steps to her house, which clings to the mountainside.
The forced respite brought about by coronavirus should be a chance to “get things back in order,” Scheutz said, adding that the village could swap quantity for “quality”
when it comes to tourism.But it’s not as easy as saying: “We’ll start from scratch,” he said.
二、請將下列新聞翻譯成英文，並給予一個恰當的標題。（35分）
科技巨頭亞馬遜（Amazon）正式禁止警方使用該公司的人臉識別軟體一
年。這一決定正值民權倡議人士對監控技術可能存在種族偏見表示擔憂之際。本週，國際商業機器公司（IBM）亦表示，將停止提供其人臉識別

Pandemics such as coronavirus are the result of humanity’s destruction of nature, according to leaders at the UN, WHO and WWF(World Wildlife Fund) International, and the world has been ignoring this stark reality for decades.The illegal and unsustainable wildlife trade as well as the devastation of forests and other wild places were still the driving forces behind the increasing number of diseases leaping from wildlife to humans.These leaders are calling for a green and healthy recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, in particular by reforming destructive farming and unsustainable diets.A WWF report warns: “The risk of a new wildlife-to-human disease emerging in the future is higher than ever, with the potential to wreak havoc on health, economies and global security.”

一、英譯中：Translate the following passage into Chinese（30分）
A recent article by Christopher Flavelle, a Washington-based climate reporter, notes that Americans by substantial margins support much stronger building codes and even outright bans on new construction in flood- and fire-prone zones.Eighty-four percent of people surveyed supported mandatory building codes in risky areas, and well over half supported outright bans.One interesting aspect of these findings is that a majority of Republicans favored tougher rules.That’s surprising because Republicans tend to be much more skeptical about global warming than Democrats and, more to the point, much more hostile to government regulation.
二、中譯英：Translate the following passage into English（30分）
在風能和太陽能等可再生能源的利用方面，日本仍然遠遠落後於許多其他發達經濟體。政府目前正在權衡一系列促進可再生能源的新措施，包括擴大海上風力發電，並審查有關使用電力傳輸系統的規定，此類規定是增加使用可再生能源的主要障礙之一。這些努力應得到一個更積極的目標來支持，該目標是增加該國的可再生能源，以促進對該領域的更多投資，並使政府在應對氣候變化的鬥爭中致力於落實國家能源脫碳的政策承諾。
三、英文作文：Write an English essay in 250-300 words（40分）
In “The Elusive Ethics of Leaking,” Mark Fenster observes, “Traditional leaks of limited quantities of information—a small cache of documents or an offthe-record conversation, for example—have long been staples of investigative journalism.Journalists have responded to official protests and the threat leaks can pose to national security by developing widely-accepted practices for how best to verify leaks’ authenticity and manage the risks they create for the leakers as well as for the government and public” [Georgetown Journal of International Affairs 18.3(2017): 113].In your essay, please discuss what these “widely-accepted practices” should be and how journalists should apply them without violating the ethics of publishing leaks.Specifically, please address the issues of what leaks ethical journalists can expose and how they should deal with leaked information.

108年公務人員高等考試三級考試試題2127021370【類科】新聞（選試英文）、新聞（選試日文）【科目】新聞英文【考試時間】2小時
一、Please create a new headline and rewrite the following news into a short news paragraph of five sentences by your own words（100 words in total）（30分）TAIPEI(Taiwan News)-- A small township in western Taiwan has suddenly found itself flooded with an order for 600 million socks after U.S.President Trump announced that he was raising tariffs on a broad spectrum of consumer products from China earlier this month.On May 14, Trump announced that he would raise tariffs on US$200 billion worth of goods made in China from 10 percent to 25 percent.The list of items covered by the tariffs included everything from agricultural and livestock products.Major shoe brands which sell to the U.S.market such as Nike and Adidas issued an open letter to Trump warning that increased costs would be passed on to consumers because 70 percent of shoes imported into the U.S.come from China.Behind the scenes, however, bills of lading have started to flood into other countries, including Taiwan.Just a week after Trump announced the new tariffs, an order was placed for 300 million pairs of socks for manufacturers in the tiny township of Shetou in Changhua County, reported CommonWealth Magazine.The township of Shetou, with a population of only 40,000, is so well known for its sock factories that a local saying goes, “There are three things in abundance in Shetou: guavas, socks, and chairmen.” In its heyday, the township churned out tens of billions of Taiwan dollars worth of socks.However, in recent years, a free trade agreement between the U.S.and South Korea and competition from China started to squeeze out local manufacturers.Fortunately, it appears that the intensifying trade war between the U.S.and China is giving sockmakers in Shetou a new lease on life.Wei Ping-i（魏平儀）, chairman of the Taiwan Hosiery Manufacturers’ Association, told CommonWealth Magazine that he received an order from a trading company last week asking for 300 million pairs of socks for the U.S.market, which had originally been meant for producers in China.The customer is desperately looking for manufacturers outside of China and Taiwan is one the countries they are looking to now, said Wei.
Wei excitedly told the magazine, “Although Taiwan may no longer be the cheapest, it still has strong production and distribution capabilities.The 300 million socks can be entirely eaten [produced] by Taiwan.” Wei added that because none of his association members have investments in China, they are actually able to benefit from the U.S.-China trade war.
二、Please summarize in 7 sentences of your personal opinions on the new U.S.law（100 words in total）（35分）US lawmakers introduced a bill on Wednesday to force Chinese companies listed on US stock exchanges so as to submit to regulatory oversight, for national security purposes.Chinese authorities have long been reluctant to allow overseas regulators to inspect local accounting firms — including member firms of the Big Four international accounting networks — citing national security concerns.In spite of a 2013 agreement that ended a stalemate over the issue and allowed US regulators to request audit working papers in China, there have been difficulties in actually gaining access.At least two Hong Kong-based audit firms have been barred from auditing US-listed companies, because they could not produce the papers US regulators asked for.“Beijing should no longer be allowed to shield US-listed Chinese companies from complying with American laws and regulations for financial transparency and accountability,” Republican US Senator Marco Rubio said in a statement.Last year, the US Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board issued a warning to investors about the difficulties US regulators faced in inspecting the audit work and practices of auditing firms in China that examine US-listed Chinese companies.There are 156 US-listed Chinese companies with a combined market capitalization of US$1.2 trillion, including oil and gas giant China Petroleum ＆ Chemical Corp（中國石油化工）and Alibaba Group Holding（阿里巴巴）.“It’s time for China’s government to play by the same rules as American companies in our financial markets,” Senator Bob Menendez, a Democrat who cosponsored the bill, said on Tuesday.
三、Please translate the following news into English（35分）
英國4月經濟萎縮，英國國家統計局周一表示，4月份經濟產值萎縮 0.4%，創 2016年3月份以來最大月度跌幅，因為汽車製造商在原定脫歐日期前後幾周採取了關閉工廠的預防措施。該數據顯示，隨著英國脫歐的不確定性上升，今年開局表現強勁的英國經濟在第二季度放緩。受脫歐條款問題的政治內鬥影響，英國脫歐日期已經兩次延遲，目前暫訂為 10月31日。經濟萎縮受製造業拖累。當月汽車產量下滑 24%，因為主要製造商將定期停產維護的時間改到 3月29日前後，也就是原定的英國脫歐日期。停產意在防範突然脫歐可能造成的任何生產中斷。

一、英譯中：請將下面這段英文譯成正確、流暢的中文。（30分）
Internet vigilantism describes online actions that are oriented toward monitoring the actions of others.It refers to individuals or groups that take grassroots action, rather than work through regional or national justice systems.Many commend the work of online vigilantes, saying that such actions are the most effective way to exact social justice and to impeach perpetrators of questionable behavior.However, while the free flow of information online has opened up the possibility of free speech, it also has a dark side.The Internet has obviously amplified the potency of gossip and public shaming.The actions of the vigilantes are probably a result of noble intentions, and support from the public serves to endorse and fuel their vigilantism further.But let’s remember：vigilantism often disregards serious investigation, due process and accountability.

Language evolution can be compared to biological evolution, but whereas genetic change is driven by environmental pressures, languages change and develop through social pressures.Over time, different groups of early humans would have found themselves speaking different languages, and then, in order to communicate with other groups – for trade, travel and so on – it would have been necessary for some members of a family or band to speak other tongues.In fact, multilingualism has been testified to have many social, psychological and lifestyle advantages.However, we are now living in a world that is losing languages faster than ever, at the current rate of one a fortnight, and with the prospect that half our languages will be extinct by the end of the century.

Japanese fishermen have set sail to hunt whales commercially for the first time in more than three decades after Tokyo’s controversial decision to withdraw from the International Whaling Commission(IWC).The hunts are likely to spark criticism from environmentalists and anti-whaling countries,but whaling officials were in celebratory mood.As an IWC member, Japan was banned from commercial hunts of large whales, though it could catch small varieties in waters near its coastline.Late last year(December 2018)Japan announced it would leave the IWC, frustrated by its failure to convince other members to support a return to “sustainable” commercial whaling.With its withdrawal from the IWC, Tokyo will carry out whale hunting off Japan.

根據最新研究，美中兩方都無法在升級的貿易戰中取得勝利。目前美國對中國進口產品徵收的稅率平均為 21.2%，高於川普總統就職時的3.1%。貿易爭鬥已經擾亂供應鏈超過一年，並加劇了大家對全球經濟衰退的擔憂。截至目前為止仍然沒有任何解決的跡象。一項新的分析指出，只有中國擁有能滿足美國對大量產品的需求的製造能力，所以美國消費者必須向中國購買產品。相反地，美國的需求遠超過世界其他國家的總合，所以在可預見的未來，中國無法找到其他國家來取代美國客戶。

(一)North Korea on Thursday said the United States has proposed aresumption of stalled nuclear negotiations in December as they approach an end-of-year deadline set by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for the Trump administration to offer an acceptable deal to salvage the talks.In a statement released by state media, North Korean negotiator Kim Myong Gil didn’t clearly say whether the North would accept the supposed U.S.offer.He said North Korea has no interest in talks if they are aimed at buying time without discussing solutions.He said the North isn’t willing to make a deal over “matters of secondary importance,” such as possible U.S.offers to formally declare an end to the 1950-53 Korean War, which was halted by a cease-fire, not a peace treaty, or establish a liaison office between the countries.“If the negotiated solution of issues is possible, we are ready to meet with the U.S.at any place and any time,” said Kim Myong Gil, who called for Washington to present a fundamental solution for discarding its “hostile policy” toward North Korea.
(二)For months, Prime Minister Boris Johnson planned on calling a general election in Britain, figuring he could break the logjam in Parliament by taking his case for Brexit directly to the people.Instead, as he has foundered in the early stages of the campaign, Johnson has discovered that the people are taking their case to him.In the voting this summer for Conservative Party leader – and, hence,prime minister – Johnson’s prime selling points were his personal popularity and skills as a campaigner.But in the early stages of the general election, exposed to hostile voices, he has seemed at times unsure, tone deaf and gaffe prone.The charged atmosphere on the campaign trail is a reminder that Brexit has left this country bitter, divided and deeply suspicious of the political establishment.Johnson and his populist aides set out to exploit those sentiments, framing this election as one of the “people vs.the Parliament.”Now he is finding that some of that anger is being directed at him.

An impeachment inquiry against U.S.President Donald Trump began after a whistleblower alleged that Trump and other top government officials had pressured the leaders of foreign nations—most notably Ukraine—to investigate his political opponents.Top minds from both political parties are preparing their best strategy as the impeachment investigation moves into a new phase with the first public hearings.A clearer picture of Trump's dealings with Ukraine has finally emerged after weeks of testimony from key witnesses.At the heart of the inquiry is whether Trump used the powers of his office to pressure Ukraine to help his re-election.As the public firestorm around the complaint and the phone call mounted, Trump decided to release a White House summary of his conversation with Zelensky, believing it would calm some of the backlashes and help him come out the other end of the controversy.

President Trump will fly to Singapore this month after all for a landmark summit meeting with North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, but he now anticipates a more drawn-out negotiation than once envisioned and indicates that he will stop increasing pressure on the regime while talks proceed.
Eight days after abruptly canceling the June 12 meeting citing North Korea’s “open hostility,”
Mr.Trump just as abruptly announced on Friday that it was back on, the latest head-spinning twist in a diplomatic drama that has captivated and confused much of the world.After complaining of North Korean bad faith, he said, in effect, never mind.
“We’re over that, totally over that, and now we’re going to deal and we’re going to really start a process,” Mr.Trump told reporters after meeting at the White House with a high-ranking North Korean envoy who delivered a personal letter from Mr.Kim.“We’re meeting with the chairman on June 12, and I think it’s probably going to be a very successful — ultimately, a successful process.”
He said that economic sanctions would remain in place in the meantime, but that he would not impose more as talks continue, and he even backed off the phrase “maximum pressure” that he has used to describe his strategy.

50 幾歲登上聖母峰，不帶嚮導。可是我的家人未曾看過他的曲棍球比賽；我們確實看過幾次他跑馬拉松，但也是直到他
20 來歲的時候了。在鮑伯的全盛時期，我們出生於上海的父母完全只想著要他進醫學院。我還記得我爸陪著他演算數學，一課又一課，就在閣樓裡的大黑板上--多麼慈愛的一面。但是鮑伯永遠當不成醫生，我也一樣；一直要等到我妹妹出現，家中終於有人穿上白袍了。

When Jessie Battaglia started looking for a new babysitter for her 1-year-old son, she wanted more information than she could get from a criminal-background check, parent comments and a face-to-face interview.
So she turned to Predictim, an online service that uses “advanced artificial intelligence” to assess a babysitter’s personality, and aimed its scanners at one candidate’s thousands of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram posts.
Predictim is offering parents the same playbook that dozens of other tech firms are selling to employers around the world：artificial-intelligence systems that analyze a person’s speech, facial expressions and online history with promises of revealing the hidden aspects of their private lives.
The technology is reshaping how some companies approach recruiting, hiring and reviewing workers, offering employers an unrivaled look at job candidates through a new wave of invasive psychological assessment and surveillance.

Britain will leave the 28-nation bloc on March 29 and talks to reach a divorce deal have stalled.An influential pro-Brexit faction within May’s party led by former foreign minister Boris Johnson is urging her to be firm and exit the European Union without a deal if necessary.The faction opposes May’s proposal for Britain to adhere to EU trade rules after it leaves, calling instead for a clean break.May did not rule out leaving without an agreement, but said doing so “would be a bad outcome for the U.K.and the EU.”

Remarks of David M.Luna
Senior Director for National Security and Diplomacy Anti-Crime Programs, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs Good morning.
It is an honor to co-chair this regional meeting in Europe organized jointly by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD)and the World Customs Organization(WCO).As Chair of the OECD Task Force on Countering Illicit Trade(TFCIT), it is also a pleasure to welcome our partners to mobilize our collective commitment to strengthen international cooperation across sectors to combat the pernicious effects of illicit threats to our economies and communities.
The growth of the global illegal economy is one of the most daunting challenges we face today.
Nowadays we see evidence of how today's global illegal economy is imperiling many of our shared interests.Illicit Trade is evolving into a convergence, a multi-dimensional matrix connecting an incredible array of illicit actors, networks, black market facilitators, and complicit financial hubs at critical nodes measured in space and time.
Tackling the issue of illicit trade in Europe and beyond has never been more timely.Criminal networks that are engaged in the illicit trafficking of narcotics, counterfeits, humans, illicit tobacco and illegal wildlife trade, pose not only an economic threat that results in loss of revenue for governments and businesses alike, but also harms the well-being, health, safety, and security of ordinary citizens.
As these threat networks converge, we too must unite.In fact, the illicit trade in products such as counterfeits, illicit tobacco, or antiquities sold across European, and other markets, fuel webs of corruption and criminality – and in some cases, finances terrorist activities across the Middle East and Africa.Reports in recent years have shown how the trafficking of cultural heritage artifacts, such as stolen antiquities from Iraq, Syria, and Libya, have helped to finance violent campaigns by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant（ISIL）.
Other forms of illicit trade, such as organized crime and corruption associated in sport or counterfeiting, pose considerable threats to European economic prosperity and physical security.Over the years, counterfeit and pirated goods have not only helped terror groups stay in business, but have enabled them to finance their attacks in Europe and other regions.
I hope that we can expand the network of the OECD TFCIT by adding new members and stakeholders, so as to develop fresh ideas for countering illicit trade.
In the coming year, we also anticipate strengthening public-private partnerships to counter illicit trade in Southeast Asia.This objective will be advanced in partnership with the APEC and ASEAN economies through the APEC Pathfinder dialogue.
In closing, I offer my thanks to all of you and urge your continued dedication to this important work.Your contributions to this policy dialogue will guide our common path forward.Thank you.
四、Translation：（25分）

「原住民族語言發展法」日前由總統公布，這是我國對於臺灣原住民族語言的保存、使用、傳習及研究發展，以「法制化」方式完整保障所立的一部專法，更是攸關原住民族語言保存及發展的重要法案。此法公布充分展現政府推動原住民族歷史正義及轉型正義的決心，更是臺灣原住民族語言權利保障的新里程碑。

A network structure is permeable and allows for information flows in and from multipledirections, including alternative media outlets as well as network users feedinginformation back into a sphere of journalism that once was almost solely occupied bytraditional journalists working for corporate or public service news agencies.Thecharacteristic of the permeability of networks also corresponds with our understanding ofa network in a technical sense.The structural setup of a computer network is constructedto link many computers together to make possible several functions, such as the transfer ofdata, the sharing of workloads, and accessibility from many locations.Sharing andexchanging information is the key idea within the framework of the network journalism.

五、Translate the following passage into Chinese（20分）
A new model of citizenship is emerging for the states of the contemporary international community.This citizenship is rooted in love of one’s own community, one’s own culture, with a deep sense of civic responsibility for its well-being, but extends the feelings of community and civic responsibility to all those who live within the borders of one’s country.It resonates with the symbols of citizenship—the flag, the constitutions, and the institutions and processes of governance of that country.This is different from the assimilation model of citizenship because it values and respects the heterogeneous identity groups within the borders of the country.
The new model of citizenship that hovers on the horizon is not only multicultural, involving respect for all groups of fellow citizens within the state, but is multinational and multidimensional: a three-fold citizenship.The first dimension, one’s local community, has already been emphasized as a part of one’s citizenship in the state, which in turn is the second dimension of citizenship.The third dimension of citizenship has yet to be recognized and explored: citizenship in the United Nations itself.The UN was formed as an association of “we, the peoples,” not as “we, the states.”
What weaves the local, national, and the UN dimensions of our citizenship together in a common fabric is the existence of 25, 000 international nongovernmental organizations(INGOs)which bring concerns for peace, justice, human rights, and the environment from our local chapters to the national and on the UN’s level.(END)

The rise of the amateur politicians seems to be a worldwide fad now, with Donald Trump as the best recognizable example.To most of us, his ascension to the Presidency was more than a surprise; it was a total shock.Did he have any relevant experience that would qualify him for the highest political office in the world？Clearly his lack of traditional qualifications for the job did not faze the American electorate in the slightest.After all, aspirants to political office all start off as novices.You can’t be a seasoned politician until you’ve been a politician and garnered the very experiences that qualify for the job in the first place.This chicken and egg scenario sometimes, although rarely, produces a double-yoker.More often than not the bad eggs surface and get their own experience at the expense of bad decision-making and even worse politics.It then turns out to be a lamentable approach, a recipe for disaster.

(一)The damage is not catastrophic.But it is real and it will linger.
That was the conclusion many health care industry officials and analysts had reached by week’s end, following a pair of blows that President Donald Trump delivered to the Affordable Care Act—and, indirectly, to the millions of people who buy private health insurance on their own.
The first blow came on Thursday, in the form of an executive order designed to undermine the new rules that “Obamacare”
has placed on insurers.The 2010 health care law famously prohibits carriers from denying coverage to people with pre-existing conditions.It also requires that all plans cover a set of “essential”
health benefits including mental health and maternity care（15分）
(二)The U.S.Justice Department has dispatched an experienced federal hate crimes lawyer to Iowa to help prosecute a man charged with murdering a transgender high school student last year, a highly unusual move that officials said was personally initiated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
In taking the step, Sessions, a staunch conservative, is sending a signal that he has made a priority of fighting violence against transgender people individually, even as he has rolled back legal protections for them collectively.
The Justice Department rarely assigns its lawyers to serve as local prosecutors, and only in cases in which they can provide expertise in areas that the federal government views as significant.By doing so in this instance, Sessions put the weight of the government behind a small-city murder case with overtones of gender identity and sexuality（20分）

一、Please summarize in two paragraphs of your personal opinions taking a clear stance tosupport or disapprove the German refugee policy.(100-120 words in total)（35分）Germans have demonstrated that unlike their previous generations, they arecompassionate to refugees and immigrants.Aware of their historical background, theydecided to open their gate to over one millions refugees and illegal immigrants from Syriaand other war-stricken countries.However, the welcoming refugee policy seems to havebeen challenged following the mass sexual attack on the New Year’s Eve in Cologne.Merkel’s refugee’s policy is confronted by more challenges.While more and more peoplebelieve that Merkel’s government has not controlled the refugee’s situation well, there is arising right-wing political party called AFD, abbreviated from Alternative for Germany(Alternative für Deutschland)whose political stance is explicitly anti-immigration.Thesuccessful results for AFD in the federal states election in March 2016 show that manyapprove the restrictive policy on refugees.Despite this, it was found in April from the latest poll on the government’sperformance on refugee issue, that 94% German citizens were willing to offer refuge torefugees who are fleeing from war and that 76% of supporter of the AFD also agreed withthis view.The refugee integration in many parts of Germany was seemingly successful.Insome cities, local volunteers helped to organize refugee integration, donated clothing andoffered German-language courses for new arrivals.Regarding the aspect of the economy,the social welfare costs play an important role.Pro-refugee supporters argue that the costsfor the refugees often return to the labor force in the economy, and will eventually lead toeconomic growth.Hence, some economic experts mentioned that the present day cost ofthe refugees might be an investment for tomorrow.

(二)Kashmir
(三)APEC
(四)Bob Dylan

二、Translate the following English passages into Chinese（每小題 30分，共 60分）
(一)The Salinas Valley, known as the salad bowl of the United States, is struggling with poverty and malnutrition among the migrant farmworkers who harvest its crops.More than a third of the children in the Salinas City Elementary School District are homeless; overall diabetes rates are rising and projected to soar; and 85 percent of farmworkers in the valley are overweight or obese, partly because unhealthy food is less costly, said Marc B.Schenker, a professor at the University of California, Davis, who studies the health of farmworkers.
“The people who grow our food can’t afford to eat it, and they are sicker because of it,” said Joel Diringer, a public health specialist and advocate for farmworkers.“It’s an incredible irony that those who work in the fields all day long don’t have access to the fresh produce that they harvest.”
For decades, the fields of the Salinas Valley have been a revolving door of migrants, from the Okies of John Steinbeck’s writings to the Latin American immigrants who tend the fields today.Ninety-one percent of farmworkers in California are foreign born, primarily from Mexico, according to the United States Department of Labor.
While the valley’s vegetables are reaching an ever-growing number of American households, public health officials say there are no signs of improvement in the living conditions and diets of farmworkers.
(二)The Arctic Ocean may seem remote and forbidding, but to birds, whales and other animals, it’s a top-notch dining destination.“It’s a great place to get food in the summertime, so animals are flying or swimming thousands of miles to get there,” said Kevin R.Arrigo, a biological oceanographer at Stanford University.
But the menu is changing.Confirming earlier research, scientists reported Wednesday that global warming is altering the ecology of the Arctic Ocean on a huge scale.The annual production of algae, the base of the food web, increased an estimated 47 percent between 1997 and 2015, and the ocean is greening up much earlier each year.These changes are likely to have a profound impact for animals further up the food chain, such as birds, seals, polar bears and whales.But scientists still don’t know enough about the biology of the Arctic Ocean to predict what the ecosystem will look like in decades to come.
Since the mid-2000s, researchers like Dr.Arrigo have been trying to assess the effects of retreating ice on the Arctic ecosystem.
The sun returns to the Arctic each spring and melts some of the ice that formed in winter.Algae in the open water quickly spring to life and start growing.These algae are the base of the food chain in the Arctic Ocean, grazed by krill and other invertebrates that in turn support bigger fish, mammals and birds.

21670【類科】新聞（選試英文）、新聞（選試日文）【科目】新聞英文【考試時間】2小時
一、Translate the following English passages into Chinese
(一)Ousted NBC “Nightly News”
anchor Brian Williams began his apology tour on Friday,saying on the “Today”
show that he “got it wrong”
when he told exaggerated storiesabout his reporting but declining to say he lied.
Williams, 56, was suspended by NBC for six months in February after he said on“Nightly News” that the military helicopter he was traveling in at the start of the IraqWar in 2003 was damaged by rocket fire.In fact, it had not been, and Williams wastaken to task by American veterans who were eyewitnesses to the events Williamsdescribed.
The episode triggered an explosion of reporting about Williams’s characterizations ofhis other reporting exploits.News articles turned up multiple instances in which heexaggerated or embellished his role.
NBC on Thursday said Williams would return to the air, but has been reassigned toMSNBC, the network’s little-watched cable channel, and will serve in a vaguely definedrole as a breaking-news anchor（25分）
(二)The leaders of Russia and Greece produced a grand pageant of solidarity, friendship andsupposed economic cooperation at Russia’s annual gathering for global businessexecutives Friday, but the embrace seemed mostly about thumbing their noses atEurope.
For President Vladimir V.Putin, giving the Greek prime minister a high-profileinternational platform served to eclipse the issue of the war in eastern Ukraine, whichwas all anybody could talk about at the St.Petersburg International Economic Forumlast year.
Alexis Tsipras, the leftist Greek prime minister, made a surprise appearance at theforum’s main event, emerging from the audience in the packed convention center todeliver a speech immediately after Mr.Putin.
It was a chance for him to bathe in warm applause while he denounced the EuropeanUnion, to show that he had friends and to try to pressure Brussels to give a little groundin crucial debt talks next week.Yet he received no Russian money and limitedinvestment pledges（25分）
(三)Children as young as age 3 will intervene on behalf of a victim, reacting as if victimizedthemselves, scientists have found.
With toys, cookies and puppets, Keith Jensen, a psychologist at the University ofManchester in England, and his colleagues tried to judge how much concern 3- and 5-year-olds had for others, and whether they had a sense of so-called restorative justice.
In one experiment, when one puppet took toys or cookies from another puppet, childrenresponded by pulling a string that locked the objects in an inaccessible cave.Whenpuppets took objects directly from the children themselves, they responded in the sameway.
In another experiment, when an object was lost or stolen, children tried to right thewrong by returning the object to the puppet it belonged to.“
Their sense of justice is victim-focused rather than perpetrator-focused,” Dr.Jensensaid.“The take-home message is that preschool children are sensitive to harm to others,and given a choice would rather restore things to help the victim than punish theperpetrator.”（25分）
二、For each of the following, briefly describe in English what you know about the person,organization, country, or place（每小題5分，共
25分）
(一)Uber
(二)Cyprus

二、Translate the following English passage into Chinese（30分）
The Bible is filled with reluctant leaders, people who did not choose power but werechosen for it.The Bible makes it clear that leadership is unpredictable：That the mostpowerful people often don’t get to choose what they themselves will do.Circumstancesthrust certain responsibilities upon them, and they have no choice but to take up theirassignment.The defining characteristic of a reluctant leader is that he is self-divided.He feelscompelled to do things he’d rather not do.This self-division can come in negative andpositive forms.The unsuccessful reluctant leader isn’t really motivated to perform the tasks assignedto him.The unsuccessful reluctant leader is passionless.His actions are half-hearted.

Cheated before, many voters in Myanmar(1)were anxious as the counting of votes from elections held on November 8th dragged on.But now, five days later, the party most voters chose, the National League for Democracy(NLD), led by Aung San Suu Kyi, passed the landmark it needed(2).The army, which has ruled Myanmar(or Burma, as it was until 1989)for 53 years, albeit in mufti(3)since 2011, has suffered a heavy blow(4).
It is the culmination(5)of an extraordinary week in Myanmar.On polling day, the excitement was palpable(6).In the pre-dawn dark, 30 minutes before voting began, the queue at a polling station(7)in Yangon, the country’s biggest city, stretched for several blocks(8).In midmorning a line of voters trailing through a monastery’s leafy grounds(9) suddenly shifted to allow a frail elderly woman, carried up a flight of stairs(10)by two young men, to cast her ballot(11).Through blazing midday sun and afternoon rainstorms,
Myanmar’s citizens turned out to vote(12)in their country’s first competitive general election(13)since 1990—a poll which the NLD also won easily, only to see(14)the army refuse to honour the people’s verdict(15).

PARIS, NOV.15 — France bombed the Syrian city of Raqqa on Sunday night, its most aggressive strike against the Islamic State group it blames for killing 129 people in a string of terrorist attacks across Paris only two days before.
President François Hollande, who vowed to be “unforgiving with the barbarians” of the Islamic State after the carnage in Paris, decided on the airstrikes in a meeting with his national security team on Saturday, officials said.
While France has been conducting scores of airstrikes against the Islamic State in Iraq, it had been bombing inside Syria only sparingly, wary of inadvertently strengthening the hand of President Bashar al-Assad by killing his enemies.

一、英譯中：請將下面 Jeff Bezos（傑弗里·貝索斯）部分講稿翻譯成中文。（每小題 10分，共 30分）
(一)As a kid, I spent my summers with my grandparents on their ranch in Texas.I helped fix windmills, vaccinate cattle, and do other chores.We also watched soap operas every afternoon, especially "Days of our Lives." My grandparents belonged to a Caravan Club, a group of Airstream trailer owners who travel together around the U.S.and Canada.And every few summers, we'd join the caravan.We'd hitch up the Airstream trailer to my grandfather's car, and off we'd go, in a line with 300 other Airstream adventurers.I loved and worshipped my grandparents and I really looked forward to these trips.On one particular trip, I was about 10 years old.I was rolling around in the big bench seat in the back of the car.My grandfather was driving.And my grandmother had the passenger seat.She smoked throughout these trips, and I hated the smell.
(二)At that age, I'd take any excuse to make estimates and do minor arithmetic.I'd calculate our gas mileage – figure out useless statistics on things like grocery spending.I'd been hearing an ad campaign about smoking.I can't remember the details, but basically the ad said, every puff of a cigarette takes some number of minutes off of your life: I think it might have been two minutes per puff.At any rate, I decided to do the math for my grandmother.I estimated the number of cigarettes per day, estimated the number of puffs per cigarette and so on.When I was satisfied that I'd come up with a reasonable number, I poked my head into the front of the car, tapped my grandmother on the shoulder, and proudly proclaimed, "At two minutes per puff, you've taken nine years off your life!"
(三)I have a vivid memory of what happened, and it was not what I expected.I expected to be applauded for my cleverness and arithmetic skills."Jeff, you're so smart.You had to have made some tricky estimates, figure out the number of minutes in a year and do some division." That's not what happened.Instead, my grandmother burst into tears.I sat in the backseat and did not know what to do.While my grandmother sat crying, my grandfather, who had been driving in silence, pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway.He got out of the car and came around and opened my door and waited for me to follow.Was I in trouble？My grandfather was a highly intelligent, quiet man.He had never said a harsh word to me, and maybe this was to be the first time？Or maybe he would ask that I get back in the car and apologize to my grandmother.I had no experience in this realm with my grandparents and no way to gauge what the consequences might be.We stopped beside the trailer.My grandfather looked at me, and after a bit of silence, he gently and calmly said, "Jeff, one day you'll understand that it's harder to be kind than clever."

In Brazil, soccer was initially played among elite clubs behind closed doors.Blackswere excluded.Outside the confines of formal championships, however, the sport wasquickly taken up as a game played in abandoned lots, meadows and urban gaps.Ballswere improvised, fields were improvised, and the game was fertile ground for the spirit ofimprovisation.
No other activity brought over from Europe took root so widely and so immediately.This resulted in an imaginative style of play that made competition and gratifyingplayfulness inseparable, with blacks and people of mixed race rising from exclusion andbecoming its main protagonists.
This style of play took over the championships and official clubs in the 1930s andgained international recognition for the first time during the 1938 World Cup.At the time,the sociologist Gilberto Freyre believed soccer confirmed his own thesis, explored in twoclassic tomes on Brazilian culture, “The Masters and the Slaves” and “The Mansions andthe Shanties.”
Brazilian soccer style transformed the “British and Apollonian” game into“Dionysian dance”; straight and angular European soccer became sinuous and curving asit took on the body movements of samba dancers and the martial art dancers and fightersof Brazilian capoeira.Freyre saw in it an affirmation of a tropical and mestizo culture thatwould enable it to reverse the stigmas of a heritage of slavery.

名將謝淑薇的網球路
「對網球說不上喜歡，因為開始時是 5 歲，後來發現是職業，喜不喜歡都要做。」採訪一開始，謝淑薇開門見山的回答，一時還真讓記者亂了方寸。
謝淑薇與網球結緣超過 20年，運動生涯的高潮迭起，恐怕也是臺灣少見。
她的網球起點，始於父親謝子龍。謝子龍 39 歲那年，有一天經過網球場，看著別人打網球，就此著迷於這項運動，從連發球都不會的門外漢，帶著當時5 歲的小孩一起報名學習，從此意外發現年僅 5 歲的謝淑薇有過人天賦。此後，謝子龍可說是傾家蕩產，靠著土法煉鋼自行培養她成為網球員。
青少年時期的謝淑薇，確實表露出「網球神童」的特質。2002年，謝淑薇16 歲那年的名古屋國際青少年網球賽，決賽中，她以 7：6（3）、6：0 極為懸殊的比數，痛擊俄羅斯女將莎拉波娃（Maria Sharapova）。
上天卻讓兩人往後發展有如天壤之別。莎拉波娃當時已與全球最大體育與娛樂集團 IMG 簽約，有 3 名教練跟著她全球征戰，隨後一路直衝世界排名第1，成為網壇天之驕女；相形之下，謝淑薇卻進入迷航期，在 16 歲到 19 歲這 3年，因不認同父親的嚴格教育，她選擇自行赴日發展，父女之間失聯。職業生涯剛起步，其他人全力衝刺之際，她卻錯失了這黃金三年。

Creditors—including big-name investors and pension funds—are already waiting to see who will get paid first, or at all.Public workers are bracing for pension cuts that may leave their retirement plans in ruins.Residents can look for taxes to go up even as services continue to decline.There’s talk of auctioning off prize works from the Detroit Institute of Arts to pay for more ambulances.Downtown businesses are being asked to pay for their own security patrols since so many police have been laid off.Though nearly everyone agrees that Detroit is in particularly bad shape, many of its underlying issues—crushing debt and unfunded and unsustainable retiree benefits—are not unique.

(二)Almost two decades, Japan's economic fortunes have deteriorated, and little seemed tobe done about it.But in the last few months, the nation's new Prime Minister, ShinzoAbe, has pushed policy makers and other officials to take bold steps.Their handiworkwas evident when the yen hit 100 to the dollar for the first time in four years, and theeconomy grew at a robust annualized pace of 3.5.percent in the first quarter.A weaker yen helped Japanese exports grow 3.8.percent, pushed higher by strongshipments of cars and other manufactured goods to the United States.“Abenomics is about coming out on top in global competition,” Mr.Abe said.“We'refinally seeing a correction of the excessively strong yen.”Toyota Motor reported this month（May, 2013）that annual net income had jumpedthreefold, and Sony produced an annual profit for the first time in five years.Perhaps more important, particularly for the citizens of Japan, the yen's move isexpected to kindle inflation in the once moribund economy（20分）

三、Translate the following passage into Chinese（30 points）
A growing number of U.S.colleges are scrambling to fill classes, a trend analysts say is driven by a decline in the number of students graduating from high school and widespread concern among families about the price of higher education.
The admissions upheaval at schools ranging from lower-tier colleges to esteemed regional ones contrasts with the extraordinary demand for the most elite colleges and universities.
Demographics pose a major hurdle for many colleges that market primarily to high school students.The number of new high school graduates peaked in 2011, after 17 years of growth, and is not projected to reach a new high until 2024, according to the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education.Analysts and educators expect that a rising share of incoming students will need major financial aid.
The economic recovery is also hurting enrollment because fewer people go to college when jobs are available.According to state data released this week, Maryland colleges have 2.8 percent fewer students this fall, the second straight year of decline and the sharpest annual drop in 30 years.
四、Translate the following passage into Chinese（30 points）
The United Nations climate conference ambled toward a conclusion on Friday, with delegates saying that the meeting would produce no more than a modest set of measures toward a new international agreement two years from now.As usual, the biggest dispute was over money.
The talks, the 19th annual meeting of parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, opened nearly two weeks ago in the shadow of a devastating typhoon in the Philippines.The disaster added momentum to a proposal by poorer nations for the creation of a new mechanism to compensate developing countries for damage from climate-related disasters.
With the clock winding down and the talks likely to extend into Friday night, the socalled loss-and-damage proposal remained alive.But the wealthy countries that would presumably provide financing for the plan were offering a weaker alternative that would wrap it into an existing area of the climate treaty.“There are no surprises here,” said Ronald Jumeau, a Seychelles diplomat who acts as spokesman for the Alliance of Small Island States, countries likely to be damaged by rising seas and more intensive storms as greenhouse gases trap ever more energy in the atmosphere.“It’s brinkmanship.”

一、Translate the following passage into Chinese（25分）
“Iron Lady”
is what the Soviet press had dubbed Margaret Thatcher unflatteringly, but she embraced it, and she was known as the Iron Lady to the very end by her legions of admirers and detractors alike for her steely spine and her unshakable convictions.She won three elections and she was the longest-serving British prime minister of modern times.
Margaret Thatcher famously broke the coal miners’ union, stood up against striker violence for months until she won.She delivered tough medicine to an economy wracked by inflation and industrial decline.She was lionized for surviving an IRA bomb, but vilified for her hardline stance, allowing IRA
hunger strikers like Bobby Sands to die.She went to war to retake the Falkland Islands from Argentina in 1982, and in 1990, she joined President Bush in the war to drive Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait, the first Gulf War.(＊IRA: Irish Republican Army)

U.N.resolution orders Syrian chemical arms to be destroyed September 29, 2013 UNITED NATIONS -- The U.N.Security Council unanimously passed a landmark resolution Friday ordering the destruction of Syria's chemical weapons and condemning a murderous poison gas attack in Damascus.

三、綜合測驗：（每題2分，共 30分）
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last,someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33.years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the(1)day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a(2), I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've(3)encountered to help me make the big choices in life.Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only(4)is truly important.Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.You are already naked.There is no reason(5)to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer.I had a scan at 7:30.in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.I didn't even know what a pancreas was.The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live(6)longer than three to six months.My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs(7)order, which is doctor's code for preparing to die.It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10.years to tell them in just a few months.It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be(8)easy as possible for your family.It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day.Later that evening I had a biopsy.The tumor turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery.I had the surgery and I'm fine now.
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few(9)decades.Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than(10)death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die.Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there.(11)yet death is the destination we all share.No one has ever escaped it.And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life.It is Life's change agent.It clears out the old to make way(12)the new.Right now the new is you, but someday not too long(13)now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.Don't be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people's thinking.Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.And most importantly, have the courage to(14)your heart and intuition.They somehow already know what you truly want to become.Everything(15)is secondary.

The president’s position was hailed by Democrats, gay rights groups and others as a benchmark for civil rights in the US and criticized by Republican activists and conservative Christian leaders as a divisive campaign issue before the Nov.6.election.

Rupert Murdoch expressed regret Thursday for his failure to halt what he called “a cover-up” at his News of the World tabloid over the phone-hacking scandal that continues to engulf his media empire.
Testifying for a second day at an inquiry into press ethics, the chairman and chief executive officer of News Corp.said that the extent of hacking had been hidden from him and his senior executives, adding that they were “all misinformed and shielded.”
There was, Murdoch said, no doubt in his mind “that maybe even the editor, but certainly beyond that, someone, took charge of a cover-up which we were victim to and I regret.”
At times combative, at times contrite, Murdoch has said he welcomed his two-day appearance before the Leveson Inquiry, the longest by any witness, for the chance to put “certain myths to bed.”
During his testimony Wednesday, he admitted to hobnobbing with various prime ministers during his 40.years at the center of British life, but denied ever seeking or receiving government favors.

Most of the nation’s 285.million egg-laying hens spend their lives in spaces no bigger than a letter-sized piece of paper, barely able to move about freely, turn around or spread their wings.
Animal-welfare activists have battled state by state for years to change that, taking on a well-funded egg production industry.As grassroots campaigns go, the activists have done well, but they knew the fight could go on for years and burn through tens of millions of dollars while animals continued to suffer.
Now, though, there’s hope for the hens because a strange thing happened on the way to the next skirmish.The activists and the industry reached a compromise, pending in Congress, which involves phasing in larger “enriched cages,” with a percentage of the industry installing new cages every six years for the next 18.years.
The story of how this deal came about holds a larger message for antagonists in weightier issues such as immigration, climate change and banking regulation: Pay attention and see how it’s done.
Four years ago, few would have predicted compromise in the great egg fight.In California in 2008, the United Egg Producers and the Humane Society of the U.S.each spent$10.million in a battle over Proposition 2, which mandated that chickens be raised in environments where they could move about freely, producing what are known as cage-free eggs.

一、將下列英文翻譯成中文。（每小題15分，共30分）
(一)Comparing the activity levels of a Taiwanese judge and an American judge serves as an excellent example to explain the influence of culture on the public’s expectations.The Taiwanese public expects, and the litigants usually demand, that the trial judge play the key role and conduct the investigation and trial.The legendary figure Judge Pao is the best candidate; he mixed the clever detective techniques of Sherlock Holmes with the judicial wisdom of King Solomon.The seemingly ideal combination is deeply ingrained in the Taiwanese cultural mentality.
(二)As law enforcers, we need to accept that law has its various manifestations all over the world; it is now and will always remain culture-specific.Globalization does not necessarily lead to universal homogenization; rather, it helps formulate legal pluralism and makes legal research ever more complex and challenging.
二、將下列中文翻譯成英文。（每小題15分，共30分）

101年公務人員高等考試一級暨二級考試試題10110【等別】一級考試【類科】衛生技術【科目】英文【考試時間】3小時
一、英譯中：
(一)Skillful composers have long used silence to build a sense of anticipation.Some of music’s finest moments are spent in transition—waiting, in essence, for the other shoe to drop.The snapshots of this pause may have implications beyond concert halls.They shine a light into what neuroscientists call “segmentation processes”—the techniques used by the brain to take a stream of sensory information and parcel it up into more easily comprehended pieces.（20分）
(二)For many firms that do business in Europe, the certification of their recycling processes from the International Standards Organization is a must-have.Toxic materials such as lead, mercury and other heavy metals are used liberally in electronic devices, and burying them in landfills poses a future hazard if the metals leak into groundwater.While European countries have stringent recycling regulations, government mandates in the United States are less demanding.In America, large corporations are at the forefront in pushing for electronics recycling.（20分）
二、中譯英：
2005年，世界衛生組織報告指出，全球有9.8% 的成人是肥胖的，該組織也預測肥胖症會持續上升，甚至超越傳染疾病，成為人類嚴重的健康問題。能夠解釋全球肥胖症上升的因素，包括現代加工食品的增加、速食和垃圾食物的普遍。不過，諷刺的是，經濟進步是造成肥胖的主要原因，因為它帶給大眾都市化的生活、久坐不動的辦公室工作，和減少運動量的洗滌機、車輛與電子媒體。（20分）
三、作文：
Good habits can help you succeed in your career, win the love and respect of people you care, or even save your life at the critical moment.On the other hand, bad habits may do all the opposite of the above.Write an essay entitled “A Good Habit” or “A Bad Habit” of about 400.words.（40分）

一、英譯中：
(一)As an industry that recognizes the legitimate concerns of copyright owners that exist in a digital world, consumer-electronics companies have been working for years with both the recording and motion picture industries on developing technological measures that meet the needs of both industries by protecting content at the source.（12分）
(二)E-mail has become efficient to the point of counter-efficiency, threatening to overwhelm the primary activities---teaching, reading, writing, and thinking---that we once hoped it might help sustain.The best teaching and writing require some professional space within which to give the illusion of inefficiency.E-mail’s demand for metronomic efficiency threatens such expanses of “idle”
creativity.（12分）

一、Translate the following English passages into Chinese（25分）
Increasing numbers of people in work are finding themselves in poverty, according to a report published in Britain.The report highlights the growing incidence of well-educated people on the breadline because of a failure to find a job.The report charts the changes in recent decades in levels of poverty in Britain—and seeks to explain why, despite higher levels of employment and a more qualified workforce, there has not been more success in combating poverty.The report cautions that simply increasing employment and pushing more people into university “are no panacea.”
The report also warns that higher employment has been a “less effective antidote to poverty” because there has been a steady fall in the average hours worked per worker, down 11% over the last 40 years.The result is widespread deprivation, with the number of people experiencing in-work poverty rising by a fifth in a decade to 6.1 million.By contrast the number of people in jobless households has remained steady at 5 million.
二、Translate the following Chinese passages into English（25分）
臺灣壯麗的高山美景，少有觀光客、外國人甚至本地人知悉。大多數人對於臺灣東北海岸野柳（Yehliu）的奇岩異石並不陌生，也多曾造訪過東部的太魯閣峽谷（Taroko Gorge）。然而，少有人深入地—或者說，更高度地—探索臺灣的高峰， 而臺灣高山正是使這島國成為健行界最佳地點的主因。
請攀登高山的入山證可能不容易，但是就實際登山的時間而言，大多數臺灣的高山都可在週末攻頂。對於那些較無意征服最高峰的人們，臺灣有數百座中等高度的登山路徑，帶領您進入風景如畫的溫泉、湖濱和瀑布。
三、Essay Writing（50分）
A well-known British statesman once said: “This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” Write a well-organized essay with an introduction, a body and a conclusion in which you interpret the significance of the quoted passage, the extent to which this passage might relate to your future career in civil service.

根據亞洲開發銀行在2008年的年度展望報告，亞洲正面臨嚴重的技術工作人員流失；此狀況會阻礙經濟成長與現代化之推動。
亞洲開發銀行的報告指出，造成此種短缺的快速蔓延之部分原因，是技術工作人員前往世界各地的工業化國家接受更好的機會所致。

二、Translate the following paragraphs into Chinese：（35分）
Perhaps that is why Pakistan's government is fumbling to respond.Ordinarily loquacious spokesmen have gone mute.The usual promotion of elaborate conspiracy theories will no doubt resume soon, but the best that Asif Zardari, the president, could manage was a bluff and unconvincing denial that Pakistan is home to fanatics and terrorists in an op-ed for the Washington Post.
What happens next? In 2001.America invaded Afghanistan, kicking off its ten-year misadventure in that country, because the Taliban harboured Mr.bin Laden at the time.It looks to some, now, as if Pakistan was next in line to play host to al-Qaeda’s leader.Colder relations with the Americans must surely be expected, while Pakistan fumbles for some sort of explanation.
Small bits of black metal wreckage strew a wheat field beside number 25, evidence of the American helicopter that crashed during the raid in which Mr.bin Laden was killed.These are being hastily gathered by schoolboys and equally excited foreign correspondents.
三、Translate the following paragraphs into English：（35分）
20世紀最感人的永恆呼喚：「帶箭野雁」
演講過程中，講員放了不少新聞剪報照片，其中一張她譽之為20世紀最感人的圖片，那是一張加拿大野雁在天空中飛行的照片，攝於1981年5月22日，題為「帶箭野雁」。講員說，有一天，有人在天上拍到一隻野雁，身上插了一支比牠身體還長的箭，牠卻還能帶箭飛行，有人為這隻野雁取名為唐納。為了要幫牠把箭取下，他們試了很多方法都不成功，最後有人在公園中用麻醉麵包引誘唐納，終於把牠迷昏，才為唐納動手術取下那隻箭。
這隻「帶箭野雁」在今天可能早已不在人間，但是講員說，這張照片在她的人生中卻成為一個永恆的呼喚，經常提醒她：在人生中，你會負傷，但你仍要帶著比你身體還長的箭飛下去，很多人看到那隻箭，心都碎了，所以有人會看不下去，會跳出來救你，但你因為有那隻令你痛苦的箭，你不會輕易讓其他野雁或人靠近你，免得他們觸到你，令你更痛，所以，真正要救你，必須先使你昏迷，把你打昏，正如對付溺水的人一樣，你才能安靜接受手術解救，中箭之後，你仍必須先繼續飛下去，有人看見，才會救你，如你中箭就倒在荒野，那箭就永無拿下之日。

Older, Suburban and Struggling, ‘Near Poor’ Startle the Census
The New York Times, November 18, 2011
By JASON DePARLE, ROBERT GEBELOFF and SABRINA TAVERNISE
WASHINGTON — They drive cars, but seldom new ones.They earn paychecks
(1), but not big ones.Many own homes.Most pay taxes.Half are married, and nearly half live in the suburbs.None are poor, but many describe themselves as barely scraping by(2).Down but not quite out
(3), these Americans form a diverse group sometimes called “near poor” and sometimes simply overlooked — and a new count suggests they are far more numerous than previously understood.
When the Census Bureau(4)this month released a new measure of poverty, meant to better count disposable income(5), it began altering the portrait of national need.Perhaps the most startling differences between the old measure and the new involves data the government has not yet published, showing 51 million people with incomes less than 50 percent above the poverty line
(6).That number of Americans is 76 percent higher than the official account, published in September.All told(7), that places 100 million people — one in three Americans — either in poverty or in the fretful zone(8)just above it.
After a lost decade of flat wages and the worst downturn(9)since the Great Depression, the findings can be thought of as putting numbers to(10)the bleak national mood — quantifying the expressions of unease erupting in protests and political swings.They convey levels of economic stress sharply felt but until now hard to measure.

三、Translate the following paragraphs into Chinese:（30分）
The legal and illegal pumping of underground water faster than it can be replaced has compressed water-storing aquifers, causing Bangkok to sink between 2cm to 5cm each year.Scientists say the rise of waters in the nearby gulf as a result of global warming could combine with the sinking land to put Bangkok under water much of the time by the middle of this century.
Similar subsidence and seawater encroachment are occurring in Jakarta, Ho Chi Minh City and Manila, where a typhoon last month triggered the worst flooding in the Philippine capital for decades.
Bangkok, some experts half-jokingly say, may well return to what it was in the 19th century－a water world where almost all its 400,000 inhabitants lived on raft-houses or homes on stilts.
四、Translate the following paragraph into English:（30分）
電影不像電報線路受到幾近於全體一致的讚美，它從未被視為純然只是一種傳播媒介。若說電報改變了傳播性質，以致觸發了神祕和驚愕，那麼電影則是面對著既存的文化標準。電影不僅是一種新傳播技藝，而且轉眼間搖身變為二十世紀一種主要的藝術新形式，進而風靡一時。電影所傳播的，不是符碼化訊息，而是攝影和小說的風格。電影把人們集合在公共場所，善於經營此類場所的企業家，不久就贏得了對這一行業的控制。源於都市娛樂活動，並結合了多種娛樂形式，電影在大城市移民區和工人區，吸引了第一批觀眾和藝人。

二、請將以下英文翻譯成中文。（20分）
In modern times, an important area of the common law known as the "Royal Prerogative" has come into prominence.The Prerogative refers to important rights of the "Crown." The right to administer justice is a key prerogative power.Originally, these rights belonged to the Monarch but, under modern constitutional arrangements, the powers have come to be exercised by the Government or, in the case of justice, by the judges.Some of these powers are of major importance, such as the right to conduct foreign relations（including power to make treaties with other States or international bodies), the power to declare war, etc.If a "prerogative power" is claimed to exist, it is for the courts to actually state whether or not it exists and to also state the extent of the power.No new prerogatives can be created.So, for every prerogative power, there has to be historical precedent.（from An Overview of the English Legal System）

一、英譯中：
Crops produced through genetic engineering are the only ones formally reviewed to assess the potential for transfer of novel traits to wild relatives.When new traits are genetically engineered into a crop, the new plants are evaluated to ensure that they do not have characteristics of weeds.Where biotech crops are grown in proximity to related plants, the potential for the two plants to exchange traits via pollen must be evaluated before release.Crop plants of all kinds can exchange traits with their close wild relatives(which may be weeds or wildflowers)when they are in proximity.In the case of biotechderived crops, the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)and U.S.Department of Agriculture(USDA)perform risk assessments to evaluate this possibility and minimize potential harmful consequences, if any.（30分）

臺灣農業屬小農家庭農場經營形態，提升競爭力最大的限制在於農戶眾多且經營規模小，兼業比率過高，研發成果商品化不足，欲求降低產銷成本及導入現代化、企業化經營管理及行銷頗為不易。若能藉由建立農業中心衛星體系，推動農業經營企業化，將可有效整合小農成為大農，並以產銷組織間的專業分工、資源互補，來加速生產結構改善，提高產銷效率，進而發展高值、高效農業，強化競爭優勢。（30分）

(二)Attitudes of respect, modesty and fair play can grow only out of slowly acquired skills that parents teach their children over many years through shared experience and memory.If a child reaches adulthood with recollections only of television, Little League and birthday parties, then that child has little to draw on when a true test of character comes up, say, in a prickly business situation.（12分）

(二)With developed countries focusing on－and arguing about－stimulus spending vs.austerity measures and whether to impose a global bank tax, the G-20.Toronto Summit is unlikely to address the priorities of least-developed countries: reforming the governance of international financial institutions, like the International Monetary Fund(IMF), to give them more of a say; loosening requirements for IMF loans; ensuring predictable aid flows; and open trade access to developed markets.

However, Wayne was afraid that Jobs' wild spending and Wozniak's frequent “fancy” would cause Apple Computer to fail.Thus, he decided to give up his role after 12.days.Terrified to be the only one of the three founders with assets that creditors could seize, he sold back his shares of Apple Computer Inc.for$800, which is equivalent to$22.billion today.

二、Translate the following news reports below into Chinese.You have to translate everything given.
(一)Subject : April economy（15分）
The government says the island's economy flashed a "red" light in April for the fourth consecutive month, an indication that the economy remains "overheated." It is the first time the economic climate has maintained a red light for four months in a row.
Meanwhile, the consumer confidence index dropped for the first time in eight months in May to 76.points, down 2.68.points from April.According to market watchers, the decline reflects recent plunges in the stock market as well as uncertainty about whether the next six months will be a good time to invest in stocks.
(二)Subject : CNN, CBS once again test waters over joining forces（20分）
CNN and CBS News have romanced each other off and on for more than a decade, and they are checking again to see if the time is right for a serious business relationship.Talks aimed at joining forces have foundered in the past due to questions of editorial control and complex labor issues.But the gloomy financial outlook for broadcast network news and CNN's need to kick-start its domestic network's ratings gives executives at both organizations a greater incentive to overcome the problems.Jeff Bewkes, chairman of CNN parent Time Warner Inc., said Wednesday that “it's no secret” that CNN talks with broadcast networks and suggested they need CNN more than CNN needs them.“There is a lot of fiscal strength at CNN that essentially puts us in a pretty good position offering a solution to the cost problems and profit squeeze that go on in network news,” he said during a conference call with investors.He said it's entirely possible that CNN and a broadcast partner can come to an agreement.
三、Translate the following press releases into readable English.
(一)最近內政部統計台灣出生率在世界各國敬陪末座，這也讓台灣加速進入到高齡化社會。根據內政部統計，2006年台灣65歲以上高齡老人激增已占總人口10%，超過聯合國7%的標準。如何妥善解決老人問題確實成為當前政府的重要課題。（15分）
(二)立法院今天三讀通過修正工會法，明定教師可以組工會。修正後的工會法規定，教師只能組職業和產業工會。換句話說，教師不能在學校組工會，要參加縣市或者是學科工會，此外根據現行法令，教師也不能罷工。教育部表示，考量公私立學校教師在學校層級內組工會，可能會衝擊到台灣現有教育生態，影響校園安定及學生受教權利，所以限制教師組產業工會。（20分）

一、綜合測驗：（30分）
請依下列文中之前後文意、語法，為每一空格填入適當之單字，每一空格只填一字，每題兩分。
(一)Attitudes of respect, modesty and fair play can grow only out of slowly acquired skills that parents teach their children over many years through shared experience and memory.If a child reaches adulthood with recollections only［1］television, Little League, and birthday parties,［2］that child has little to draw on when a true test of character comes up-say, in a prickly business situation.“Unless that child feels grounded in who he is and where he comes from, everything［3］is an act,” says etiquette expert Betty Jo Trakimas.
A family of her friend’s reserve every Friday night as “family night” with their three children.Often the family plays board games or hide-and-seek.“My children love it,” says the mother.
Can playing hide-and-seek really teach a child［4］manners? Yes, say Trakimas and others, because it tells the child that his parents care enough to spend time with him, he is loved and can learn to love others.“Manners aren’t about using the right fork,” agrees etiquette instructor Patricia Gilbert-Hinz.“Manners are about［5］kind--giving compliments, team-playing, making tiny sacrifices.Children learn that through their parents.”
(二)Scientists are learning more and more about the link［6］your mind and your health.Stress, depression, and anger have all［7］shown to pave the way to illness and disease.On the［8］hand, if you feel good about yourself, have a positive outlook, and maintain an active involvement in life, you’re more likely to be happy--and healthy.
Many things--genetics, environment, the food you eat, illness, sleep, even the seasons--influence your emotional state.But at the heart of it is how you regard［9］If you have a healthy level of self-esteem, you not only cope［10］life’s challenges better, but you’re probably more content, confident, and successful.You’re probably also healthier.Studies show that positive self-esteem actually helps inoculate people［11］depression and anxiety, conditions that may pose increased risk of everything, from colds to osteoporosis to heart disease.
Most people’s sense of worth is rooted［12］their childhood--in the early approval or disapproval of parents, teachers, and friends.But as we get older, most of us judge ourselves by our sense of［13］effectively we’re managing in the world, in the areas of love and work.Our ability to love and［14］loved can give our lives a sense of purpose and deep fulfillment.We can also find satisfaction and pride in work-related accomplishments, and the［15］we meet and work with can reinforce our sense of self and our role in life.
【答案】1.can 2.give 3.just 4.right(good) 5.the 6.to 7.been 8.other 9.for 10.with 11.reduce/release 12.in 13.direction 14.be 15.challenge

We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given.It must be earned.Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less.
It has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame.
Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things--some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor--who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.
三、Translate the following paragraphs into English（40分）
當媒體成為商品，以獲利為依歸後，爭取收視率與廣告收益成為媒體經營的最高指標。傳統上，電視台節目慣常以年齡族群作為市場區隔的主軸，例如偶像劇鎖定年輕人，本土劇爭取中年以上觀眾群，但是新聞節目如何區隔呢？新聞媒體發現，意識形態是區隔收視市場的主要利器，因此在搶攻收視率的前提下，新聞媒體便不顧媒體為何物，以各據立場的意識形態爭取觀眾，致使挺藍觀眾看某些台，挺綠觀眾看另些台，種下撕裂臺灣的禍因。
至此對抗的政治意識形態便隨著媒體搶佔市場的惡質策略而擴散，結果是意識形態愈發對立，這在選舉期間達到極致，而在選後繼續撕裂臺灣，而任由媒體撕裂臺灣的結果，最大的輸家是臺灣社會與人民，而最大的贏家則是因收視率不斷飆高，廣告收益滿滿的新聞媒體。

The Koreas held summit talks in 2000 and 2007 and agreed on a series of reconciliation events and joint economic projects.
Pyongyang began making peace overtures in August, after months of bitter hostility which began when Lee took office in February 2008 and linked economic cooperation to the North’s nuclear disarmament.

請將下列各題英文譯為中文：
一、Divided over climate change policy and whom to name to two new leadership jobs, the European Union’s leaders will be looking to Germany’s newly re-elected chancellor, Angela Merkel, to signal a way out of the stalemate when they meet Thursday.Though the two deadlocked issues are unrelated, the wishes of the leader of Germany, the E.U.’s biggest and richest nation, hold the key to both.
Germany has so far resisted putting figures on Europe’s contribution to the battle against climate change before other countries declare their hand.Some E.U.diplomats hope that, with her new coalition government in place, Merkel will show more flexibility.Meanwhile, with only the Czech Republic standing in the way of final approval of the Lisbon Treaty, European leaders are unsure whether to appoint a high-profile, charismatic personality like Tony Blair, the former British prime minister, to the new position of president that the treaty calls for.The alternative might be a lower-key candidate, like Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende of the Netherlands（25分）
二、Not long ago, a group of writers decided to publish a book of essays we called: "Feminism Made Me Happy." It was an in-your-face title, a deliberate attempt to counter the narrative we all knew by heart.The one that kept describing how the women's movement had left us stressed out, discontented, wrenched from home, hearth and motherhood to struggle and fail at doing it all.
Now I think we are due for another one because we are in the midst of another dustup over research published under the(too)provocative headline: "The Paradox of Declining Female Happiness." Going forward to the past won't bring a grin to our lips.Happiness is a pretty elusive state and an even more elusive research subject.Feminism made me happy？Not, I assure you in a permanent state of good cheer.It opened doors.It opened our eyes — to everything including what still needs to be done.
The women's movement never promised us a rose garden or a warm bath of contentment.It offered a new way to understand the world, a lens on injustice and a tool to use in the pursuit of happiness.It's a work in progress（25分）
三、The rapid march of climate change up the global agenda has prompted a new, and often poignant, conversation between the generations and, in public, among a selfappointed elite.
At its core, that conversation is about whether some of the first beneficiaries of the wonders developed during the past century — like electricity at the flick of a switch — have the means, or the will, to help their descendants with the consequences of burning vast quantities of fossil fuels.
The conversation also is playing itself out across the planet as leaders, industrialists and citizens confront issues too costly for any single nation or generation to tackle alone.
For a group of 20th-century leaders called the Elders — whose members include Archbishop Tutu of South Africa, former President Jimmy Carter and Mary Robinson, a former Irish president — it also was a conversation with their families that they felt would be most usefully conducted before the cameras（25分）
四、It isn't meant to be a gloomy or creepy book.The images of Barack Obama with strangely full lips and long lashes, or the weird morphing of his face and Lincoln's, or the gal in the very short and saucy sweater dress she made that proclaims "My Jewish Grandma is voting for Obama, is yours？" are all meant to be positive and inspiring, the voice of a new generation of artists who feel empowered by the election of the 44th president.
But there is something tremendously depressing about the recently published "Art for Obama," a survey of images and sculpture produced in support of Obama's 2008 campaign for president.The gloom sets in slowly, page after colorful page, slogan after inspiring slogan.It is a catalogue of celebratory art, of smiles and hope and change, and somehow, it leaves you with a hollow, panicky feeling in the gut.
The art itself raises many troubling questions.How closely should artists be aligned with political power？Can they remain artists of substance and integrity if they are on the inside of the halls of power？Can art be channeled by political leaders and remain interesting art？
More fundamentally, however, is an even deeper question: What is the psychology behind the new artistic mania for patriotism, once considered suspect or anathema by many serious artists？（25分）

Please read the following essay and summarize the main points in English in less than 100 words.
Whereas Kahoolawe will not be able to provide agriculture, it has a really great use: Kahoolawe provides an economical part for the wonderful and most essential national defense system.
Our airplanes and artillery without this most serviceable defense factor（training)would be inadequate to train our national defense forces.Although the ordinary leasehold, commercial and agricultural activities could never exist on Kahoolawe, the island has proved to be a wonderful place to train aviators and other types of troops.In the Pacific we have a number of aircraft carriers.Hundreds of young men flying the planes have to be taught how accurately to deliver their bombs and engage in evasive action in order to avoid enemy missiles.This requires very thorough preparation and training.
For some years the Soviets have been increasing the number of ships of their navy and planes of their air force throughout the Pacific for the purpose of creating hostile Pacific fleet bases.
The responsibility of the Department of Defense and our armed forces to maintain the freedom of the ocean lanes is a very serious one.We have to maintain equality.To become No 2 in strength would invite possible disaster.
For all these reasons it is recommended that people responsible for the safety and growth of our nation and responsible for peace in the Pacific should not jeopardize the Navy’s use of Kahoolawe to train our forces for national defense until an adequate alternative site is established.

In recent years, aboriginal groups in Taiwan are seeking to preserve their folkways and languages as well as to return to, or remain on, their traditional lands.Eco-tourism, sewing and selling tribal carvings, jewelry and music has become a viable area of economic opportunity.However, tourism-based commercial development seems not a panacea.Moreover, some national parks have been built on aboriginal lands against the wishes of the local tribes, prompting one Taroko activist to label the Taroko National Park as a form of “environmental colonialism”.Due to the close proximity of aboriginal land to the mountains, many tribes have hoped to cash in on hot spring ventures and hotels, where they offer singing and dancing to add to the ambiance.Considerable government funding has been allocated to museums and culture centers focusing on Taiwan’s aboriginal heritage.Critics often call the ventures exploitative and “superficial portrayals” of aboriginal culture.Proponents of ethno-tourism suggest that such projects can positively impact the public image and economic prospects of the indigenous community.

A famous writer describes how labels and descriptions of people can imply unequal status of males and females.A bold man is “courageous” but a bold woman is “aggressive.” A person who is innovative is “pushy” if female, but “original” if male.If insistent, a female is “hysterical,” but a male is “persistent.” A female is “over-emotional,” a male is “committed” in a politically involved situation.
四、Summary:（20分）
Please use 50 to 100 English words to summarize the following short essay.Please note that your points will be deducted if you fail to write more than 50 words, or if you write more than 100 words.Patents are sometimes used to help inventors, owners, artists, etc.protect a special type of property known as “intellectual property.” Intellectual property is defined as “the product of a person or company’s originality and creativity.” There are, however, additional ways to protect different kinds of intellectual property.Two of these ways are copyright and trademarks.Copyrights protect “original works of authorship.” This would include something creative that is written down or presented visually.Such things as books, musical compositions, paintings, and even movies and architecture can all be protected by copyrights.While typical patents may only last a short time and then need to be re-registered, for most written works, the copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 50 years.After this time has passed, the works are no longer protected by the copyright.They are then classified as part of the “public domain,” and anyone can copy or use them without permission.Trademarks, on the other hand, protect product designs and slogans that a business uses to distinguish its product from other companies’ products.For example, Nike is well-known for its “Swoosh” logo as well as its motto, “Just do it.” No other company can use either of these for its own purposes because they are already trademarks that belong to Nike.One special type of trademark is the “trade secret.” A trade secret protects any special information used to make a company’s product.A good example is Coca-Cola, which has its soft drink formula protected from copying by a trade secret trademark.This means that the ingredients used to make its product can remain secret.
五、Writing:（15分）
Please use 100 to 150 words to explain how the passing of this examination might change your life.Please explain at least two possible changes.And please note that your points will be deducted if you fail to write more than 100 words, or if you write more than 150 words.

一、英譯中（20分）
(1)New Orleans is and always has been a doomed city.Levees and loss of wetlands did not cause it to sink—they simply sped up the process.No city can exist 20 feet below sea level.If the Federal Government seeks to rebuild the city, instead of relocating the people, it is committing future generations to a similar fate.
(2)By turning the Mekong（湄公河）into a busy highway for trade and a new source of hydropower, China boosts the economies of its neighbors—yet threatens the very life of the waterway it seeks to tame.

二、Translate the following paragraphs into Chinese.Be sure to translate everything given.（35分）
It is the American story—a story of flawed and fallible people, united across the
generations by grand and enduring ideals.
The grandest of these ideals is an unfolding American promise that everyone belongs,that everyone deserves a chance, that no insignificant person was ever born.
Americans are called to enact this promise in our lives and in our laws.And though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delayed, we must follow no other course.
Through much of the last century, America’s faith in freedom and democracy was a rock in a raging sea.Now it is a seed upon the wind, taking root in many nations.
Our democratic faith is more than the creed of our country, it is inborn hope of our humanity, an ideal we carry but do not own, a trust we bear and pass along.And even after nearly 225.years, we have a long way yet to travel.
While many of our citizens prosper, others doubt the promise, even the justice, of our own country.The ambitions of some Americans are limited by failing schools and hidden prejudice and the circumstances of their birth.And sometimes our differences run so deep,
it seems we share a continent, but not a country.
三、Translate the following paragraphs into English（35分）
美不勝收的蘭嶼（Lanyu），四周海水湛藍清澈，不但孕育了美麗珊瑚，每年也吸引大批鯨群前來。此外，從事浮潛和水肺潛水活動是不錯的選擇，西岸外甚至有一艘覆滿軟珊瑚及海扇（sea fans）的韓籍沉船殘骸。
步行環島也不賴，不過大多數人還是選擇租用機車或腳踏車，再沿著步道健行。
氣象站和燈塔是俯瞰全島美景的絕佳地點。
乘船欣賞飛魚、夜遊觀星，和動物觀察（尤其是螃蟹），都是熱門活動。
達悟族（Tao）保存了許多傳統文化，習慣女耕男漁。島上儘管國宅林立，達悟族傳統屋舍依舊可見，為了防颱，這些傳統屋舍有一半蓋在地下，還有一個平台可供涼夏休憩或工作之用。住宿方面有傳統地下屋民宿可供選擇。

96年特種考試地方政府公務人員考試試題31130【等別】三等考試【類科】新聞（選試英文）【科目】新聞英文【考試時間】2小時
Instructions: Translate each of the following texts into Chinese.Answer all questions in order.（每題 25分）
一、WASHINGTON(AP)— Remember biology class where you learned that children inherit one copy of a gene from mom and a second from dad？There's a twist: Some of those genes arrive switched off, so there is no backup if the other copy goes bad, making you more vulnerable to disorders from obesity to cancer.
Duke University scientists now have identified these "silenced genes," creating the first map of this unique group of about 200 genes believed to play a profound role in people's health.
More intriguing, the work marks an important step in studying how our environment — food, stress, pollution — interacts with genes to help determine why some people get sick and others do not.
二、U.S.Senator Trent Lott’s sudden decision to retire from public office has Washington’s lobbying industry salivating at the prospect that the Mississippi lawmaker may join the millionaire’s row on K Street.That’s where more and more congressional alumni have been hanging their backslapper’s shingle to lobby old buddies.Mr.Lott’s planned departure — conveniently ahead of the new two-year wait before a retired senator can lobby — is shedding light on Capitol Hill’s quasi-aristocracy of ex-incumbents who never return home and stay close by to work politics from its more lucrative shadow world.
By last count, the lobbying ranks include 37 former senators and 158 graduates of the House, with fresh enlistments expected from the dozens of current members planning to quit before the expected watershed election next year.
It’s important to shine a light on lobbying, more than to belabor this inevitable calling.The Senate, in fact, voted to require more lobbyist disclosure this year and to double its one-year moratorium before alumni can lobby.
三、A decade ago, James A.Thomson was the first to isolate human embryonic stem cells.Last week, he announced one of the great scientific breakthroughs since the discovery of DNA: an embryo-free way to produce genetically matched stem cells.
Even a scientist who cares not a whit about the morality of embryo destruction will adopt this technique because it is so simple and powerful.The embryonic stem cell debate is over.
This allows a bit of reflection on the storm that has raged ever since the August 2001 announcement of President Bush's stem cell policy.The verdict is clear: Rarely has a president — so vilified for a moral stance — been so thoroughly vindicated.
四、Hydrocarbon fuels(chiefly coal, oil and natural gas)were first used to create energy at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, as mankind began to run short of traditional fuels like wood and whale oil.The new fuels contained more latent energy than any previously discovered, but they also came with a flaw: the carbon emissions that are an unavoidable by-product of their combustion.
These gases build up in the planet’s atmosphere, where they act like the panes of glass on a greenhouse, allowing the sun’s warmth in but not back out.As heat that would ordinarily radiate off into space is instead reflected once again toward the planet’s surface,temperatures begin to rise and the globe begins to warm.
Two of the sharpest spears created by global warming — flooding and drought — account for more than half the world’s deaths from natural disaster.Nations whose land lies close to sea level, like the Netherlands, Bangladesh and Indonesia, are at great risk, asare locations where natural barriers against water have been degraded by man.Scientists believe that Hurricane Katrina would have packed a far less devastating punch if the wetlands that buffer New Orleans from the Gulf of Mexico had not been removed by imprudent levee-building and oil and gas development.

Human rights groups, religious communities and the country's former president have called for South Korea to abolish the death penalty, backed by a newspaper urging the country's parliament to remove it "once and for all".
The Seoul Daily reported about 300 human rights activists and religious leaders took part in a ceremony in favor of abolishing the death penalty, held at Seoul's Korea Press Center on 10 October, the World Day Against the Death Penalty.
Former president Kim Dae-Jung and 2000 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate joined the call for abolition."The dignity of life is a natural right that nobody can infringe and demolish," he said.
The Korea Times reported in September that twenty organizations, including Amnesty International and Lawyers for a Democratic Society, were campaigning for the government to support a resolution for a moratorium on executions set to be debated at the
62nd session of the United Nations General Assembly.
"The adoption of such a resolution by the U.N.'s principal organ would be an important milestone toward the abolition of the death penalty," the Association for the Abolishment of the Death Penalty said.
The Association said it was holding a 100-day campaign to encourage the government to support the resolution.
The Seoul Daily said in an editorial that although there were now 64 people on death row, the executive government had been "right" to not approve the sentences being carried out.
"If someone is executed for having been found guilty and sentenced to die, there is no way to reverse that decision once the action has been carried out." The newspaper said.
The newspaper also said some people think the death penalty is a necessary response for "perpetrators of particularly heinous crimes".
"Capital punishment goes against the foundation of democracy," Kim said: "Democracy regards the life of a human being to be the most cherished in the world, and to end a person's life even in the name of law clearly runs counter to the basic principle of human rights." He said the death penalty was abused by dictatorships and it did not lead to a reduction in crime.
Kim was sentenced to death on sedition charges in 1980 by South Korea's ruling military government.His death sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment and he was allowed to leave the country.

三、英文作文：（40分）
Read the passage below and write a comment of about 220 words on its argument.Try to use some examples to illustrate your points.
To an individual, communication is a natural, necessary, omnipresent activity.A person enters into communication relationships because he wants to relate to the environment, especially the human environment, around him.As Sapir wrote in the passage we quoted earlier, society is a network of such relationships maintained chiefly by communication.To an observer communication seems to flow through the social system like blood through the individual cardiovascular system, serving the whole organism, concentrating now on one part, now on another according to need, maintaining contact and balance and health.We are so accustomed to living in an ocean of communication that we can hardly imagine living without it.

一、英譯中：請將下列英文譯為中文。
1.Georgia O’Keeffe was a woman artist of international stature.Famous for the reductive power and lucidity of her still-life compositions, O’keeffe was a pioneer both as a figurative artist and an early proponent of abstraction in the vanguard of American modern art.Her paintings explored the subject matter poetically with intense color and starkly linear quality.O’keeffe's career received a boost from the famed photographer and modern art world impresario Alfred Stieglitz, who exhibited her drawings at the avant-garde gallery “291” in New York City.They married in 1924, beginning one of history's great creative partnerships.Some of Stieglitz's best work was of O’Keeffe, his muse, and in turn he promoted and encouraged her art throughout his life.（10分）
2.In the nineteen-seventies, the Getty Museum built itself a home in Malibu, California,in the form of an imitation Roman villa from the first century.There was something undeniably tacky about the notion of putting a make-believe classical villa atop a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean and calling it a museum, but nobody seemed to mind.In 1976, its eccentric founder, J.Paul Getty, died, leaving the bulk of his multibillion-dollar estate to the museum.The museum morphed into the Getty Trust and was eager to leave behind its arriviste beginnings.It decided to give its strange building a chance to be taken seriously by announcing that it would turn the Malibu villa into a museum of antiquities, filling it with objects that were created in the period that the building was intended to evoke.（10分）

You know, if you were looking for a name for this country right now, you’d have to call it the uptight society.Everyone seems uptight about something.The white students want out of our system; the black students want in; the people are mad at the cops; and the priests aren’t talking to the cardinals.And doing the column the way I do,I discovered that for every uptight person in this country, there’s an uptight organization to back him up.And I discovered that the most uptight organization in this country right now is the National Rifle Association.Now, before you get to like me, I am for gun registration, and it’s very personal with me.My neighbor has a gun, and he can’t even water his lawn straight.But every time I do an article for gun registration, I get hundreds of letters,all neatly typewritten,telling meI’mtrying to destroythe Constitution.And I discovered that everybody in this country who owns a gun also owns a typewriter.So my solution to the gun registration problem is to make everybody register his typewriter.People are very uptight about pornography and what it is doing to all our lives.Now, I’ll be very honest with you.I have always wanted to write a pornographic book.But I get so excited doing the research that I can never get around to the book…
二、中譯英﹕本篇摘錄自美國前總統柯林頓 1993年11月 13日中午，在田納西州曼斐 斯城(Memphis)一所教會面對五千名牧師（大部分為黑人）談論心靈重建的演說。請將下列中文段落譯為英文。（20分）
前些日子，我的一位好友，巴爾迪摩市長，告訴我他去探望一位被害年輕人家屬的故事。這個年輕人只有十八歲，於萬聖節當天遇害。他生前總是會陪著一群小孩出去討萬聖節糖果，以維護他們的安全。萬聖節當天，這一群人正在街上行走的時候，對面一個十四歲男孩拿了一把槍給一個十三歲男孩，聳恿他朝那十八歲男孩開槍，結果他一槍把他射死了，這就是為什麼市長得去探望被害人家屬。
所以，我的美國同胞啊，我今天再次向你們呼籲，你們給予我（總統）這個職分，我們正在努力完成你們所交付我的任務。但是除非我們能解決犯罪、毒品、和暴力殘害的問題，除非我們能認清家庭社區瓦解和工作無著是問題的核心，除非我們承認有些重建工作光靠政府是做不來的，而必需要深入人心的價值觀、靈、魂、與人性的真實面，否則政府所做的其他努力都是徒勞無功。

There is an outmoded Burmese proverb still recited by men who wish to deny that women too can play a part in bringing necessary change and progress to their society:
“The dawn rises only when the rooster crows.” But Burmese people today are well aware of the scientific reasons behind the rising of dawn and the falling of dusk.And the intelligent rooster surely realizes that it is because dawn comes that it crows and not the other way around.It crows to welcome the light that has come to relieve the darkness of night.It is not the prerogative of men alone to bring light to this world: women with their capacity for compassion and self-sacrifice, their courage and perseverance, have done much to dissipate the darkness of intolerance and hate, suffering and despair.

另一方面，心理學研究顯示男性惜字如金、不擅溝通的做法所造成的傷害，遠比婦女蜚短流長為甚。
（二）我的許多男同事因參與民主運動而遭到囚禁，他們常常談到自己對家中婦女的感激，無以為報。尤其是自己妻子的堅定扶持，其溫柔如母親乳養新生兒，其勇敢如母獅保護幼兒。

(二)Despite Satellite Policy, Ads Fly（30分）
By SALLIE HOFMEISTER
LOS ANGELES TIMES, Cl, May 28, 2006
Advertising is the lifeblood of TV networks.But for the 40.or so channels that are reserved for nonprofit programmers on the nation’s satellite television services,commercials are a no-no.
At least they’re supposed to be.
Under an 8-year-old rule that Congress designed to increase educational fare on satellite, DirectTV and rival Dish Network, owned by EchoStar Communications Corp.,must set aside 4％ of their channel capacity for nonprofit programmers that serve the common good with ad-free content.
But critics say ambiguities in the guidelines and weak enforcement have resulted in rampant abuses.Several nonprofit channels ignore the rules and air advertisements,according to consumer advocates and Industry insiders.Some also sell airtime to programming suppliers, a practice that is not explicitly forbidden but critics say raises questions about whether some channels are wrongly profiting.
In comments this month filed with the Federal Communications Commission in support of a complaint last year, Farm Journal Inc., a for-profit media company, alleged that RFD-TV, a public interest channel about rural living, has aired commercials for blue jeans, lawn mowers, horse saddles and quilting books.

Passage A:
Hong Kong has been searching for a way to reduce the use of plastic bags, which are currently 1.here at the rate of 33 million a day.The Environmental Protection Department says a tax on plastic bags might be the economic incentive needed to make shoppers think［2.］
Hong Kong's 6.9 million residents each use an average of almost five plastic bags a day.Just about everything［3.］in supermarkets, shops and street stalls comes in a plastic bag, and the bags clog the landfills and［4.］the countryside.
Campaigns encouraging Hongkongers to bring their own bags when they go shopping have met with［5.］success.So the government is now considering a tax on the bags.
Chu Hon-keung, environmental affairs manager for the Hong Kong chapter of Friends of the Earth, says making people pay for plastic bags［6］.reduce their use elsewhere.
"When we learn from other countries' experiences, the economic incentive can really indeed achieve the benefit and［7.］effects to reduce the use of plastic bags," he said."For example, in Taiwan, after a plastic bag charge was［8.］, the use of plastic bags there was reduced around 70 percent."
Last April, a student-run environmental group organized Hong Kong's first "No Plastic Bag Day." More than 1,000 retailers, including the two main supermarket chains, agreed to charge customers the equivalent of about seven cents for each bag,［9.］offering them free as usual.
Now the first Tuesday of every month has been［10.］"No Plastic Bag Day." Organizers say plastic bag use dropped on these days by more than a third in June, and almost half in July.

"The report argues compellingly that the best［13.］against corruption is to strengthen governance systems supported by regular monitoring," he said."［14.］uttering the word corruption drives headlines but the real issue that we are addressing at the World Bank Group is how to［15.］good governance and accountability."
It wasn't always this way, though.As recently as the 1990s, the Bank was accused of turning a blind［16.］to corruption.It lent billions to the corrupt government of Mobutu Sese Seko in［17.］Was then called Zaire and is now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo.In Mozambique, the Bank's advocacy of privatization of state-owned enterprises［18.］to a financial scandal that culminated in the murder of a respected journalist and bank examiner in the year 2000.

(三)Oil Prices Stabilize On Talk Of OPEC Cut（30分）SINGAPORE(AP)-- Oil prices stabilized Tuesday after climbing nearly a dollar on threats of violence in Nigeria and a suggestion that OPEC may need to further cut its output.
Light sweet crude for December delivery rose 3 cents to $60.05 a barrel in midmorning Asian electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.Prices jumped 88 cents in Monday's trading after armed protesters shut down a Nigerian oil pumping station.
Oil prices have retreated significantly from a summertime high above $78 a barrel,trading in a range of around $57-$61 a barrel over the past month as traders look for demand clues in weather and economic forecasts and weigh them against OPEC's plans to curb supplies by 1.2 million barrels a day.
Some members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries are concerned that prices have already fallen far enough from their July peak above US$78 a barrel.
OPEC President Edmund Daukoru, also Nigeria's oil minister, said the oil cartel may need to further cut its output."The market is clearly oversupplied, clearly oversupplied," Daukoru told reporters Monday during a visit to South Korea.
On Tuesday, he said OPEC doesn't have a specific price floor or band that it wants to defend.Setting a target price band "is not really applicable to the fluid, free market,"he said.

(1)In a global－and globalizing－era, all of the old structures of political reality, all the old ways of saying who we are and what we are for and what we are against, seem to be melting away into air.
How to have an identity in such a world?Nationalism becomes semiobsolete before it even completes its conquest; national governments everywhere are challenged from front and rear, past and future.They are forced to do battle against premodern tribal and ethnic identities even as they resist the threats to their fragile sovereignties that are posed by international organizations and movements and economic forces.The weaker national sovereignty is as an absolute principle, the less secure we are in defining ourselves according to national citizenship.
(2)台灣社會沉迷於爆料已經到了病態的程度。政客只要爆料就能搶到鏡頭，媒體只要爆料就有市場。一有新東西丟出來，群眾就集體跟著瘋狂舞動，也不太在乎爆 料的內容是真是假。對爆料者而言，這是最簡單、成本最低的作法；說出口的話 沒人追問真相為何，遑論是非。一個沒人澄清真相、沒人介意誠信的社會，交互爆料是必然發生的惡性循環。

94年公務人員高等考試二級考試試題【等別】二級考試【科別】博物管理（選試藝術史研究、英文）【科目】英文（包括作文、翻譯及應用文）【考試時間】2小時
一、英譯中：請將下列英文譯為中文。（每小題10分，共 20分）
(1)The MoMA exhibit shows how Pissarro, long considered the lesser painter, impressed Cézanne and influenced him profoundly.
We see how these two gifted painters helped each other find their distinct voices.Although they stood side by side to paint the same landscapes, their stylistic differences are evident.Pissarro’s impressionistic “Orchard, Côte Saint-Denise, at Pontoise” shines with light, details and pale colors—nature at its most radiant.Cézanne’s “Orchard” uses deep, vibrant colors, bold strokes and diagonals.He takes liberties by editing out elements from his landscape to distill its essence—thus simplifying nature rather than enhancing it.Two paintings of the same orchard could not be more different in mood and tone.
(2)There are many challenges to displaying and contextualizing digital art.Benjamin Weil, the media arts curator explains: “Art that is no longer defined by its physical qualities, that requires equipment to be experienced and that is mediated by technology,has very different needs in terms of conservation, collection, and display.” Weil’s coworker, Forde, concurs: “The bottom line is that we have to be open to completely rethinking how we contextualize this work, how to ensure we don’t try to straight-jacket the work into pre-existing definitions of art.Sometimes it doesn’t even make sense to show art within the context of a physical space.”
二、中翻英：請將下列各句中文譯為英文。（每小題5分，共 20分）
(1)七○年代台灣美術的創作者，除了極力排拒盲目跟隨西方現代主義，更積極反思 追求象徵草根性的美學觀。
(2)回歸鄉土自覺意識，意味著深化本土美學與現代知性取向並行不悖的交融。
(3)那個收藏家故意賣假畫，作為資助他私人真跡收藏的一個方式。
(4)館長將那件雕塑移到更寬敞、整修過的空間。
三、應用文：請根據下列情境寫一封英文信。（30分）你去一個美術館，發現三樓左廂展覽室有兩件館藏的四○年代著名台灣畫家膠彩畫 並未放進玻璃櫃，且附近並無任何警衛，有些民眾直接用手摸畫，你很擔心珍貴畫 作遭到損壞。請以藝術愛好者的身分，寫一封英文信給館長，說明以上事項並提出 解決之道。信函需以 Michael Wu 或 July Wu 署名，否則不予計分。

(1)The 21st century offers unprecedented opportunities of communicating with other societies on many different levels and via many different media.At no point in world history has it been more important to educate global citizens who have the capacity to approach each other as potential friends,regardlessof differences in religion, language, ethnicity and culture.Central to the future of Asia must be a renewed commitment to sustain meaningful cross-cultural conversations informed by the universal and human values of intellectual curiosity, empathy and simple kindness.
(2)Women are pursuing a number of professions and careers that previously were nearly all male: the military, engineers, lawyers, judges, firefighters, physicians, dentists, accountants, administrators, police officers, managers.Entering these new professions often has presented obstacles.For example, women police officers often receive stares from other citizens and are viewed with suspicion by male partners.Male police partners fear that women may break under pressure, may not be able to subdue and handcuff a resisting offender, and may not be able to control disorderly males and several other types of violent situations.

(1)教育部目前有許多不同方案，以協助台灣青年擴展視野，賦予他們在國際商場上之競爭優勢。這些方案包括鼓勵學生出國留學，並擴大招收國外學生等。
(2)最近許多外國專家預料「中文將是世界的強勢語言」，然而由於漢字難學，所以 沒人敢擔保未來中文能否取代英語，但至少很多歐洲大學的漢學系已經變成熱門 科系，甚至少數官方網頁上也添加了中文版。

一、請將以下英文翻成中文。
(1)In the genuinely elected governments of the West, the system of “political democracy”had drifted away from the original plan and mode of operation.To begin with, the voter turnout had shrunk; national elections were not infrequently won by the votes of fewer than half the electorate; the people were no longer proud to have the franchise.This indifference was due to distrust of politicians and contempt for politics, although these are the very organs of representative government.Politics was a pejorative word; an endeavor or institution that was branded as politicized lost it virtue.（20分）
(2)Although the eyes of all mammals are moistened and soothed by tears, only human beings shed tears in response to emotional stress; yet we know nothing about this uniquely human behavior.A recent theory suggests that tears help to relieve stress by ridding the body of potentially harmful stress-induced chemicals.Thus far, it has been demonstrated that emotionally induced tears have a higher protein content than tears produced in response to eye irritation, such as that caused by a cut onion.（20分）
二、請將以下中文翻成英文。

一、英譯中：請將以下英文段落譯成中文（20分）
What is a nation to do when its public-sector enterprises, often essential to the public interest and sometimes mammoth in scale, are performing poorly? One answer is for the state to turn to the private sector and sell off part or all of a state-owned enterprise（SOE).This process is referred to as privatization, a term defined differently in different countries but indicating a concerted effort by a government to make an SOE more profitable by allowing in private money, and often private management, through a change in the ownership structure of the enterprise.

（一）In the new digital age, viewers themselves will become creators and distributors of their own video content.Mom and Dad could film Junior playing ball in the backyard, then send the clip over the Internet to Grandma, who’ll watch it on a high-definition, interactive TV alongside her evening news.
（二）Viewer-created content might even go mass market.During the recent tsunami in Asia, news organizations often ran pictures ordinary people had posted on Web sites.News Corp.founder Rupert Murdoch predicted that bloggers using text, sound, and video would eventually take the place of some of the reporters working for him.
（三）The next generation wants control over their media instead of being controlled by it.The growth of digital media will give us that control—we’ll be able to watch whatever we want, whenever we want, screening out anything that’s not of interest, and even creating our own private channels.Will it make us better informed and entertained?Or simply more isolated?

一、 英譯中：請將下列英文譯為中文。（20分）
1.Last week, Amazon.com, the No.1 online bookseller, just added an astonishingly clever feature called “Search Inside the Book.”Every page of some 120,000 in-print titles has been scanned into a vast computer database and can be accessed as text.This doesn’t mean you’ll be reading your favorite best sellers on Amazon for free; there are limits on how many pages you can browse in a single book.But it does mean you can do the kind of comprehensive search that most librarians could dream of.
Enter weapons of mass destruction with Amazon’s search box, for example, and you don’t get only the dozen or so books in print with WMD in the title.You get all 1,690 books in the Amazon collection in which the author wrote that phrase.
2.The automated office, cable television, e-mail, artificial intelligence, computer-based instruction, and word processing are ideas whose time has come.All of these innovations share in common a technology centered around the computer and telecommunications industries and their abilities to provide communication through media other than print on paper.
Such technologies will become commonplace in the relatively near future, and will have a permanent impact on individuals and on world society far beyond what is currently anticipated.The key issue for the future is how to shape these technological innovations so that they are appropriate for human living in a world society.

1.He made us see.Henri Cartier-Bresson was the master in whose shadow documentary photography will always exist.Before his death at the age of 95, he spent his life reconciling opposites, not laboriously but in an instant, with the grace of an athlete, on the run.Through his eyes we see the universal in the specific, large issues in small things, mystery in the obvious, poetry in the mundane.We see infinity in the blink of an eye.（20分）

Droughts and floods account for more than half the world’s total deaths from disasters, according to the United Nations.But unlike many other catastrophes, most water crises are man-made.Nature may bring the occasional monsoon downpour or dry spell, but environmentalists agree that global warming, dams, deforestation and slash-and-burn farming exponentially exacerbate these seasonal weather patterns.Inept and corrupt water management also contributes to the problem, allowing plentiful water to run off to the seas or leaving it to lie in floods on the land, while a few hours away, crops wither in parched fields.

1.Many people are eager to do something to preserve our planet.You may be overcome, however, by feelings of helplessness.You are just one person in a world of 6 billion.How can your actions make a difference? Best, you say, to leave it to decision makers.And so you do nothing.
2.Can we overcome this lack of interest? Yes, but only if we have hope.One reason for hope lies in the extraordinary nature of human intellectual accomplishment.A hundred years ago, the idea of a 747, of a man on the moon, of the Internet remained in the realm of science fiction.Yet we have seen those things and much, much more.3.So, now that we have finally faced up to the terrible damage we have inflicted on our environment, our ingenuity is working overtime to find technological solutions.But technology alone is not enough.We must engage with our hearts also.And it’s happening around the world.

一、英譯中：請將下列各題英文譯為中文。（每小題15分，共 45分）
1.We have gone from the world of George Orwell, where large empires confronted each other, to the universe of Ian Fleming and James Bond, where a megalomaniac billionaire hidden in a cave sends planes against American cities.Washington’s response to Sept.11, 2001, has not served the best interests of the United States.The intervention in Iraq lacked the legitimacy of, say, the 1991 Iraq war or the ouster of theTaliban regime in Afghanistan.And it is this more than anything that has fed anti-Americanism.
2.The post-Mao era can be seen as a period in which a decoupling of nation from state takes place, so that Chinese identity becomes more culturally defined instead of defined in terms of the state.While capitalism has brought back many disturbing tendencies to a state socialist society, such as increasing income disparities, the return of prostitution and child labor, and government corruption, it has also started the transnationalization of Chinese identity out of the confines of the state.
3.We know we must replace coal, oil, and gas with renewable sources of energy.But how?The answer used to be “go nuclear,” but nuclear power has proved prohibitively expensive.Hydropower sounds clean, but you have to flood entire valleys for it to work.Much is heard of wind, wave, and solar power.Unfortunately, intermittent energy sources need to be backed up by conventional power, for the wind does not always blow, and the sun does not always shine.Even more problematic is the manufacture of the hardware that such sources of power require.This can use up almost as much energy as they generate.Put a solar panel on your roof, and it will take the first eight years of its use to replace the conventional energy that was needed to make the panel.

We greeted this fabled historic landmark with thoughts of times past and romantic walks along the Bund at night before retiring to our room.The thoughts and the name of the hotel all seemed quite peaceful but our stay was anything but that.
Upon arrival at the hotel I encountered rude staff who were hesitant to be helpful.No one planned to help me with my luggage to my room until I asked.I’ve traveled extens ively and had this kind courtesy offered at the most shabby of $5/night guesthouses but not this “five-star” hotel.
The rooms, whilst charming in a years-of-past way, were cold in temperature and when we found the extra bedding in the closet it was stained with blood.When we rang the housekeeping for about this, the housekeeping corrected us by saying they are “irremovable stains.”
The small annoyances above aside, the real “irremovable stain” on our memory of our stay
at the Peace Hotel in Shanghai occurred one evening around 10:30 p.m.when we arrived back from dinner.My travel companion and I, both women, were in the lift of the hotel with a group of intoxicated, middle-aged local men.We alighted the lift on our floor followed by the group of men.Feeling uneasy we hurried back to our room and closed the door.However, as our footsteps hurried so did those behind us and after we closed the door,the men starting knocking on the door, shouting at us in Shanghainese and trying to get in.We had to both hold the door closed and slept the night with a chair blocking it.
The hotel staff was eventually understanding of our situation when we wanted to cancel our further reservation for the rest of our stay in Shanghai.
The Peace Hotel is worth a look when strolling the Bund but not worth a stay.You’ll find more peace for your money and cleaner bedding in one of the many other great 5 star hotels this city has.

一、英譯中：請將下列英文譯為中文。（20分）
(一)Precisely three months after the first jetliner slammed into the World Trade Center,the American national anthem played Tuesday（Dec.11, 2001)at the White House and across the country as President George W.Bush vowed to “ right this huge wrong.”
At 8:46 a.m.（13:56 GMT), a drum roll echoed in the EAST Room, a solemn backdrop for “The Star Spangled Banner.”
Bush said America does not need monuments and memorials to grieve the deaths of more than 3,000 people in suicide hijackings over New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania.“For those of us who lived through these events, the only marker we’ll ever need is the tick of a clock on the 46th minute on the 8th hour of the 11th day.We’ll remember where we were and how we felt.We’ll remember what we lost and what we found.Every death extinguished a world,” he said.
(二)The Internet has already killed the written letter, now it has its eyes on the telephone.Rapid changes in technology over the past few years have transformed the way society communicates.The ubiquitous e-mail address now dots everything from business cards to greeting cards to consumer products,providing quick and instantaneous communication across vast distances, a feature that was once the telephone’s sole domain.But now, even the telephone is changing.
As broadband Internet infrastructure continues to proliferate around the world,providing the users with high-speed accoss to the World Wide Web, using this new network to transmit not only data, but voice, and even images, is becoming more and more common.
What is making this phenomenon even more attractive, especially to businesses, is that, now, communicating with customers or companies halfway around the world costs
only pennies.
