Ernie sat quietly and reflected for a few moments. Then he said, "From my earliest memories as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, `I love you, son.'"
Tears came to my eyes as I 54 what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He hadn’t left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind 55 father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.

A
If I were writing a history of my family, some of the darkest moments recorded would be those surrounding Christmas trees. One would certainly think otherwise; nevertheless, selecting and putting up our trees have always been filled with peril. For instance, one afternoon dangerously close to Christmas Eve my mother bought what she found to be a bargain: a glorious tree that was so full and tall that we could hardly get it into the house. Once we did, my father immediately realized that we would have to hire a carpenter to build a stand for it. Another December, perhaps the very next one, we bought a tree earlier that we ever had before. We were pleased with its shape and delighted that its size was manageable. We easily placed it in a stand, decorated it from top to bottom, and then sat back to bask(享受) in its soft light. Two or three days passed, and the truth couldn’t be hidden: we had bought a tree cut so long ago that it was now shedding its needles. There was nothing to do but undecorated it, take it down, and begin tree shopping again.
Our most recent Christmas tree offered still another challenge. When we brought it home, once again it seemed larger than it had in the great outdoors. To complicate matters, we had bought a new stand, whose nuts and bolts worked more difficultly than those of our old stand. Our only resource was to persuade two young neighbors to stop playing the basketball and to help us get the tree into the house and set it securely in the stand. Unfortunately, no one noticed the mud on our helpers’ sneakers; so only after removing several reddish brown spots from the carpet were we able to discuss the question of where the lights and ornaments(裝飾物) were stored. Perhaps those who cut their own trees have tales to tell more harrowing than these. I don’t care to hear them, for my family’s experiences, of which these are but three, are enough to tempt me to make the following suggestion: “Let’s forget the tree next Christmas. Let’s simply decorate a garland over the mirror in the hall and hang a wreath on the front door.”
56. The darkest moments in the writer’s family concerned the fact .
A. that the family bought big Christmas trees.

D. make some other decorations to celebrate Christmas.

A. for the neighbors.
B. for the most recent Christmas tree.
C. with lights and ornaments
D. so father wouldn’t hire a carpenter.
59. The underlined word “harrowing” in Paragraph 2 means .
A. dull B. painful C. disappointing D. interesting
B
A rock group called the Rocket Crew is on tour. Their agent has asked the town officials about Wilbour City on the tour. The stadium in the town is large enough to hold the expected crowd. Ticket sales in the area would be good because several towns are around Wilbur City. However, many people in the town don’t want a rock concert because they fear the damage the crowd might cause.

What is the most pressing environmental issue we face today? “Global warming”? The “greenhouse effect”? At the Oscar ceremonies, Al Gore referred to a “ Climate crisis”, but in his State of the Union address President Bush chose the comparatively comforting phrase “climate change”. They all refer to the same thing, but the first rule of modern political speech is that before addressing any problem each side must “frame the debate” in the most favorable way.
In recent years there has been a contest between “global warming” and “climate change.” Bush’s use of the latter was consistent with Republican practice, which calls for de-emphasizing the urgency of the situation. Unlike the “catastrophic”(災難性的) meaning of global warming, strategist Frank Luntz wrote, “climate change sounds a more controllable and less emotional challenge.” So should activists favor “global warming”? Well, not necessarily. Richard C.J. Somerville, a leading researcher at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, thinks “global warming” is problematic because it puts the focus on worldwide average temperature, rather than the more serious regional dangers of storms, floods and drought.
In any case, “global warming” seems to have won out over its rivals(競爭對手), if one can judge by The New York Times, where for each of the last three years “global warming” is more often used than “climate change” by almost exactly two to one. Both of these phrases have triumphed(勝過) over “greenhouse effect,” which was the most common term in the early 1980s. George Lakoff, the Berkeley professor of linguistics(語言學), is a strong backer of the dark house “climate crisis,” which is also favored by Gore. “ Climate change doesn’t suggest immediate action,” says Lakoff. “Climate crisis says immediate action needed. The framing is not just a matter of labels, it’s modes of thought.”
“I don’t like words that leave me anxious,” says Somerville. “Using crisis conveys the thought that this is hopeless. But there’s a lot that can be done about this. I’m still looking for the right words to describe what’s happening, but it’s not keeping me from trying to stop it.”
64. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. The War of the Words
B. The most pressing environmental issue.
C. Climate Crisis or Climate Change
D. Language and Politics
65. A republican would probably prefer to use the term .
A. climate change B. climate crisis
C. global warming D. greenhouse effect
66. Which of the followings is NOT true?
A. Politics has something to do with language.
B. Activists would certainly like the phrase “global warming”.
C. “Greenhouse effect” is not often used today than it was 20 years ago.
D. “Climate change” sounds more comforting than “climate crisis”.
67. From the last paragraph we can infer that
A. Somerville is against using the term “climate crisis”.
B. Somerville is in favor of the term “climate crisis”.
C. Somerville thinks the term “climate crisis” makes people worried.
D. Somerville thinks nothing can be done to stop using the term “climate crisis”.
D
One of the most expected revolution in aviation is to take off pretty soon, as new super-fast, relatively cheap airplanes called “very light jets” (VLJs) finally go into service.
Thanks to breakthroughs in the performance of engines for small jets, along with better airplane manufacturing techniques, companies such as Eclipse Aviation, the Albuquerque, and Adam Aircraft of Denver are promising a new kind of airplanes for a new travel: jet-speed transportation between as many as 5,500.US. airports and in planes that cost less than before.
Waiting for final certification by the Federal Aviation Administration, Eclipse’s six-seat E500 could be in the hands of pilots this July.
Linear Air has already ordered 30 of the Eclipse very light jets and plans to put them in service between August and late 2007. The planes can fly at more than 400 mph, twice the typical speed of private propeller-driven planes.
“This is the absolute future, and everybody in the aviation business knows it,” said Arthur Allen, chairman of the Massachusetts Aeronautics Commission, which oversees 38 smaller airports around the States.
Because VLJs weight as little as a minivan, they can land on runways as short as 3,000feet---compared with 4,000 or 5,000 feet required by the smaller jets today. Allen forecasts that the new jets will open up new markets for air taxi and charter services.
“It’s like an executive car service with wings,” said Bill Herp, Linear Air’s chief executive. “VLJs are going to revolutionize the way a large percentage of the traveling public gets around.” Parts of Linear’s plan with scheduled charter service is to introduce passengers who have a licence to operate a jet by themselves to the private plane experience and turn them to future consumers for $ 1,500 or $3,000 charter flights, either for business or vacation travels.
For Herp, the huge advantage of VLJs is that they will cost one-third as much to buy and half as much to operate per hour as traditional small jets, vastly extending the market for air taxi and charter services.
68. According to the text which of the following is NOT true about the new jets?
A. They can cost less both in buying and using.
B. They can carry more people on the board.
C. They can fly faster and can be more convenient.
D. They need shouter runways.
69. We may learn from the text that Linear Air is going to .
A. sell the new jets at lower prices
B. let people experience the travel of the new jets
C. make the course and the price of the tickets of all jets
D. make contracts with taxi business
70. According to the text, the underlined phrase “charter service” is a service .
A. for those who want to hire a plane for a particular purpose.
B. for those who want to have a chat while flying.
C. for those who want to save money for their travel.
D. for those who want to enjoy a cheap but pleasant flight.
71. We can infer from the text that .
A. the jets can be operated by car drivers in the future
B. only the rich can use the new jets as their private planes
C. the new jets will have a promising market
D. all companies in aviation will extend the market abroad

One year ago, when Fiona turned four, Sam and I decided to home-school her instead of sending her to pre-school. I have always felt that the 0-5 years are an irreplaceable dreamtime. As Fiona is an inventive, observant child, sensitive and funny and great company, it would be a tragedy to find school rubbing away her uniqueness and restricting the building of her personality.
I tried not to reproduce school at home. I never had the urge to get a pointer, or chalk, or a blackboard. I didn’t go and search out a curriculum(課程表). I felt that my children would learn best if I stayed accessible and stayed out of their way.
Every day we went with the flow, worked some, relaxed some, read some and played some, but Fiona did not seem particularly happy here. She lost her temper once in a while.
How strange it was that my child who was free from school didn’t want to be free at all. Her friends all went to pre-school. She felt left out of a major part of her friends’ shared lives and experiences. I thought she was not in school for very strong, clear reasons, one of which was that the quality of learning my child did at home would be good, even better than expected.
Well, here was a situation I hadn’t anticipated. When we first decided to do this, Sam and I agreed that we would reassess(再評價) the situation for each child as she turned seven. Meanwhile we would offer her non-schoolbased opportunities to give her plenty of time with other kids―ballet lessons, swimming classes and T-ball. She seemed to be enjoying all. But at times she kept asking when she was going to school. Whenever she asked this question, we told her that there would be a family meeting about it when she turned seven. She nearly always responded, “That’s when I’m going to go, then.” A fair amount of her curiosity was about school and I was afraid she was dreaming of going to school before she turned seven.
Although the advantages of home-schooling, I think, far outweigh its disadvantages, it is important for me to respect my daughter’s feelings and allow her to direct her own education. If her curiosity leads her to school, isn’t that where she should go?
Next week I’ll drive Fiona to her school. I hope that Fiona will learn to read and discover something wonderful to pursue in the world that opens up for her. I hope she will find the activities she is involved in provide her with satisfactory kid-time.
72. The writer decided to home-school her daughter, Fiona, because .
A. she thought children aged 0-5 were too young to go to pre-school
B. she was afraid that Fiona may not be accepted by schools for her bad temper
C. she knew that home-schooling was much better than school education
D. she believe that children at Fiona’s age were too young to have their characters formed by school
73. In home schooling her daughter the writer tried .
A. to make her home just like a school
B. to teach with a pointer, a piece of chalk, and a blackboard
C. to be there when her child wanted her but tried not to stand in her way
D. to teach according to a curriculum, which was suitable for Fiona
74. What was the writer’s biggest problem in home schooling her daughter?
A. She couldn’t decide what to teach and how to teach her daughter
B. She was not sure whether her teaching was suitable for Fiona.
C. She could not make Fiona give up the thought of going to school.
D. She didn’t know how to control Fiona’s temper
75. We can learn from the text that .
A. Fiona always acted against her mother’s instructions
B. it was against Fiona’s with that she was educated at home
C. home-schooling was popular some years ago
D. Fiona’s parents would ask her opinions about school education

參考范文:
On the evening of April 9th, Li Hua was watching TV while his mother was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. How attentive he was watching the TV program when the telephone rang. It was from a friend of his mother’s, who wanted to say happy birthday to his mother. “Today is my mother’s birthday?” Li Hua thought to himself, feeling ashamed.
At the story, I get deeply shocked. It is not easy for parents to bring us up. They give us lots of love and care, while we don’t care for them enough. Now it’s never too late to realize this and show our love and care for them.
