【題目】The writings of Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britain. His young readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.

Shakespeare’s work, together with most other classics, is seen as remote, and written in a 400yearold version of English that is about as inviting as toothache.

Still, in Britain schools, it is compulsory to study the bard(詩人), and when something is made compulsory, usually the result is boredom, resentment(憎恨) or both.

This was my experience of the classics at school. But when I reached my late teenage years, I had a change of heart. Like every other young person since the dawn of time, the world confused me. I wanted answers, so I turned to books to find them.

I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught it in Britain and China. I have never regretted it. There is something in literature that people want, even if they don’t read books. You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works, the recent film version of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice being a case in point. These popular adaptations may help increase people’s interest in the classics.

Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare’s actual play. If that is the case, then I welcome the trend. But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same thing. Shakespeare is a poet. His greatness is in his language. Reading someone else’s rewriting of his work is like peeling a banana, throwing away the fruit, and eating the skin. Take on the original. It really is worth the effort.

1Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The language used in classics is no longer in use today.

B. British students usually find compulsory reading dull.

C. Only those studying literature read Shakespeare’s works.

D. For British people, Shakespeare’s works are no longer classics.

2According to the passage, the writer .

A. has liked literary classics since an early age

B. was forced to read the classics for a PhD

C. turned to literature to seek answers in his teens

D. thinks only people who read books like literature

3The underlined phrase "a case in point" in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to " ".

A. a great hit

B. a good example

C. a movie adaptation

D. a popular phenomenon

【題目】A Diet Without Enough Protein Can Cause Depression

Depression is a condition so common. 1 The World Health Organization (WHO) calls it “a leading cause of disability.” Difficulty in falling asleep, loss of appetite, and loss of ability to concentrate are just a few of the other effects of depression. While life events such as the loss of a spouse or a job may create a happening of depression, many cases come from within, such as people’s diet.

As is reported, both before and during a happening of depression, those with the condition show a “poor appetite”. 2 On the other hand, depression may be closely related to protein. Many cases of depression happen to those who don’t eat properly, which then result in lack of protein taken into the body.

3 It all comes down to amino acids (氨基酸). Proteins are made up of amino acids. Both the human brain and nervous system use amino acids as a substance that creates a signal from one brain cell to another or one nerve cell to another. With them communication between the cells becomes possible.

4 But eight of them, the “essential” ones for communication between the brain cells, must be eaten in one’s diet. So a diet which is lacking in protein lessens the signal being sent from one brain cell to the next during a thought. The process can lead to twisted signals, which can not only lead to depression, but also aggression. 5

A. It happens with aggression.

B. It may lead to serious effects.

C. But how lack of protein occurs?

D. There are 20 different amino acids.

E. But what does protein have to do with depression?

F. The poor appetite itself can create a depressed mood.

G. This is why depression can often express itself as anger or aggression.

【題目】 Just ask any new parent: Adding a baby to a household can also add stress to a career. Now,a new study backs that up with some astonishing numbers: After science,technology,engineeringand mathematicsSTEMprofessionals become parents,43%of women and 23% of men switch fieldstransition(轉(zhuǎn)變)to part-time work,or leave the workforce entirely.

Many researchers and parents already knew that STEM can be unwelcoming to parentsparticularly mothers. But“the considerable departure was astonishing,”says Erin Cech,an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and lead author of the studypublished in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. For both genders,“the proportions were higher than we expected. ”

The surprisingly high reduction rate for men also highlights that“parenthood in STEM is not just a mothers'issue;it's a worker issue,”Cech says. She hopes that the findings“might motivate changes,"such as more paid parental leave from both government and employers and policies that better support flexible work time without a tight routine. “We are not suggesting that people who want families should avoid STEM;that's not the solution,”she emphasizes.

By 201878% of new fathers were still working in STEM,the vast majority full time. For new mothers,68% were still in STEMbut only 57% worked full time. For professionals without children,on the other hand,84% of men and 76% of women were predicted to still be working in STEM full time in 2018. For the new parents across all fields16% of women were working part-time and 15% had left the workforce,as compared with just 2% and 3%,respectivelyfor men. These sharp differences make clear that,even though the reduction rate for fathers is higher than expectedmothers still face particular career challenges.

1What makes many STEM employees change their jobs?

A. Worrying about their family.B. The attraction of part-time jobs.

C. Being tired of the former jobs.D. The heavy burden at home and work.

2Which statement may Erin Cech agree with?

A. Working at home may be a popular choice.

B. Increasing welfare may keep STEM parents.

C. People with families should leave STEM.

D. STEM professionals should obey the rules.

3How many new mothers among the labor force worked full time in 2018?

A. 69%.B. 76%

C. 57%.D. 31%.

4What does the author want to stress by listing the sharp differences?

A. Too many fathers leave STEM.B. It's hard for mothers to make a balance.

C. STEM jobs are no longer popular.D. It's impossible to have a successful career.

If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping. I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. 1.

The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 2 We sleep in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.

I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 3 Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.

4 We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.

5 It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.

A.Thistimetherewasnotent.

B.Thingsaregoingtobeimproved.

C.Thetriptheytookmeonwasaroughone.
