It`s 2035. You have a job, a family and you`re about 40 years old! Welcome to your future life.

Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror. “ Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronics (智能電子元件) are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe you`re 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You`re not even middle-aged!

As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl , you hear, “To lose weight , you shouldn`t eat that.” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code (電子源碼) on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appears on the counter as the kitchen checks its food supplies.

“Ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space – and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacations. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each , you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots(防疫針) are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain special vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.

It`s time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office. Autopilot.” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer. Looking through the pages, you watch the news as video film rather than read it.

55. What changed the color of your shirt?

                A. The mirror

B. The shirt itself

C. The counter

D. The medicine

56. How do the shoes know that you shouldn`t eat the breakfast cereal?

 A. By pouring the breakfast into a bowl               

B. By listening to the doctor`s advice

C. By testing the food supplies in the kitchen           

D. By checking the nutrition details of the food

57. The strawberries the children eat serve as________.

A. breakfast                        B.lunch

C. vaccines                   D. nutrition

58. How is the text organised?

A. in order of time

Going Zero Waste means more than dealing with the rubbish we create. It means reducing it, too. People who go Zero Waste are careful about what they do. They never take more than they need, they reuse plastic bags, and they make good plans not to buy more than necessary before going shopping.
Kamikatsu, a Japanese village, has already gone Zero Waste. The 2,000 villagers recycle everything possible. There are 34 different boxes at the recycling center! The villagers sometimes just feel unhappy about what they have to do, but they also see the good side.
Let’s think about how to enjoy a Zero Waste Christmas. By sending recyclable cards, we can help our friends and family reduce(減少) waste. And wouldn’t it be better to enjoy the spirit of Christmas with a real tree that can be re-planted in spring?

How is it that siblings (兄弟姐妹) can turn out so differently? One answer is that in fact each sibling grows up in a different family. The firstborn is, for a while, an only child, and therefore has a completely different experience of the parents than those born later. The next child is, for a while, the youngest, until the situation is changed by a new arrival. The mother and father themselves are changing and growing up too. One sibling might live in a stable and close family in the first few years; another might be raised in a family crisis, with a disappointed mother or an angry father.
Sibling competition was identified as an important shaping force as early as in 1918. But more recently, researchers have found many ways in which brothers and sisters are a lasting force in each others’ lives. Dr. Annette Henderson says firstborn children pick up vocabulary more quickly than their siblings. The reason for this might be that the later children aren’t getting the same one-on-one time with parents. But that doesn’t mean that the younger children have problems with language development. Later-borns don’t enjoy that much talking time with parents, but instead they harvest lessons from bigger brothers and sisters, learning entire phrases and getting an understanding of social concepts such as the difference between “I” and “me”. 
A Cambridge University study of 140 children found that siblings created a rich world of play that helped them grow socially. Love-hate relationships were common among the children. Even those siblings who fought the most had just as much positive communication as the other sibling pairs.
One way children seek more attention from parents is by making themselves different from their siblings, particularly if they are close in age. Researchers have found that the first two children in a family are typically more different from each other than the second and third. Girls with brothers show their differences to a maximum degree by being more feminine than girls with sisters. A 2003 research paper studied adolescents from 185 families over two years, finding that those who changed to make themselves different from their siblings were successful in increasing the amount of warmth they gained from their parents.
【小題1】The underlined part “in a different family” (in Para. 1) means “_______”.

A．in a different family environment
B．in a different family tradition
C．in different family crises
D．in different families
【小題2】In terms of language development, later-borns ________.
A．get their parents’ individual guidance
B．learn a lot from their elder siblings
C．experience a lot of difficulties
D．pick up words more quickly
【小題3】What was found about fights among siblings?
A．Siblings hated fighting and loved playing.
B．Siblings in some families fought frequently.
C．Sibling fights led to bad sibling relationships.
D．Siblings learned to get on together from fights.
【小題4】The word “feminine” (in Para. 4) means “_______”.
A．having qualities of parents
B．having qualities of women
C．having defensive qualities
D．having extraordinary qualities
