Question 22. What does the man suggest as a gift for the woman's uncle? For questions twenty three and twenty four, you'll listen to a conversation. Have you read this story about asteroids hitting the Earth? No. I don't think so. What are asteroids? They're rocks that fly around in space. Apparently, rocks hit the earth more often than scientists previously thought. Is it anything to worry about? I'm not sure, but there's some amazing data here. Between 2000 and last year, there were 26 major impacts. Wow. And on average, once in every century, an impact will be large enough to destroy a city. You know, if an asteroid really hits one. That's a big if though, isn't it? Yes, it is. In fact, most asteroids land in the ocean.

第 22 題。男子建議送什麼給女子的叔叔當作禮物？針對第 23 與 24 題，您將聆聽一段對話。你有讀到這篇關於小行星撞擊地球的報導嗎？沒有，我想沒有。什麼是小行星？它們是在太空中飛來飛去的岩石。顯然，岩石撞擊地球的頻率比科學家先前認為的還要頻繁。這有什麼需要擔心的嗎？我不確定，但這裡有一些驚人的數據。在 2000 年到去年之間，共發生了 26 次重大撞擊。哇。而且平均而言，每隔一個世紀，撞擊的規模就大到足以摧毀一座城市。你知道的，如果小行星真的撞上城市的話。不過這是一個假設性很大的「如果」，不是嗎？是的，沒錯。事實上，大多數小行星都落在海洋中。

twenty three and twenty four, you'll listen to a conversation. Have you read this story about asteroids hitting the Earth? No. I don't think so. What are asteroids? They're rocks that fly around in space. Apparently, rocks hit the earth more often than scientists previously thought. Is it anything to worry about? I'm not sure, but there's some amazing data here. Between 2000 and last year, there were 26 major impacts. Wow. And on average, once in every century, an impact will be large enough to destroy a city. You know, if an asteroid really hits one. That's a big if though, isn't it? Yes, it is. In fact, most asteroids land in the ocean. Question 23. What are the speakers mainly talking about? Question 24. How often will an impact be big enough to destroy a city?

中文翻譯

第23與24題，你將會聽到一段對話。 「你讀過這篇關於小行星撞擊地球的報導了嗎？」 「沒有，我想沒有。小行星是什麼？」 「它們是在太空中飛行的岩石。顯然，岩石撞擊地球的頻率比科學家以前認為的還要高。」 「這有什麼好擔心的嗎？」 「我不確定，但這裡有一些令人驚訝的數據。從2000年到去年，發生了26次重大撞擊。」 「哇。」 「而且平均而言，每個世紀會有一次撞擊的威力大到足以摧毀一座城市。你知道的，如果小行星真的撞上城市的話。」 「但那是一個很大的假設，不是嗎？」 「是的，沒錯。事實上，大多數小行星都落在海洋中。」 問題23。說話者主要在討論什麼？ 問題24。撞擊威力大到足以摧毀一座城市的頻率有多高？

Question 24. How often will an impact be big enough to destroy a city? The sample question is based on the following announcement. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is Captain Jason Zhang again. We will begin our descent into Hong Kong International Airport in about fifteen minutes. Depending on the instructions from the air traffic controllers, we expect to be landing at about 03:00. Remain seated with your seat belt fastened. On behalf of all of us at Star Air, thank you for flying with us. Questions twenty five and twenty six are based on the following talk. Cooking is such great fun! It's a creative process because you can experiment with different ingredients and flavors. You can also explore different cooking styles and traditions. The possibilities are almost endless, especially these days when you can buy almost anything from your local supermarket. And if you're cooking for yourself, it leads directly to the pleasure of eating. I mean, who doesn't enjoy eating? But I hate doing the dishes almost as much as I love cooking. To me, washing the dishes is a pain. It's just a task that you have to do. There's nothing creative about it at all, and it's so boring. It is such a shame that you can't enjoy the pleasure of cooking without enduring the pain of washing up. Questions twenty seven and twenty eight are based on the following talk. Who doesn't enjoy finding out more about their personality? Who doesn't want to know what they are really like? Almost no one. And this probably accounts for the popularity of personality tests. Personality tests are like quizzes but without right or wrong answers. You simply give your own answers to a series of questions, and those answers reveal insights into your personality. For example, one test asks if you would give red or white roses to your boyfriend or girlfriend. It is claimed that those who choose red expect to give more to a relationship, whereas those who choose white expect to get more from a relationship. Of course, some people take personality tests more seriously than others, but most agree that they are at least a lot of fun. Questions twenty nine and thirty are based on the following report. Pruning or cutting off branches from a tree can remove unhealthy or unneeded parts of a plant and improve the growth of flowers and fruit. Generally, best time to prune is in late winter before spring growth starts. Doctor. Doug Welsh, a plant expert and a professor at Texas A and M University, offers the following tips. When you prune, first remove dead, broken or diseased parts. Cut at the place where the problem begins. Then remove any branches that touch another branch. Leave only the stronger one or the one that is in a better position. But Doctor. Welch also suggests not going too far with pruning. A lot of pruning can be avoided if you choose the right place for your plants. By doing this, the plants will grow the way nature has originally designed. As Doctor. Welsh put it, people can oftentimes ruin what nature has created. So be cautious with pruning. Questions thirty one and thirty two are based on the following personal story. The flight had been normal up to that point. We were flying over the Atlantic Ocean. Then, without any warning, the plane started to shake violently. Worse yet, the plane fell a few 100 feet and then fell again. That happened four times. It was terrifying. It was 02:00 in the morning, and most people were sleeping and had their seat belts on. That saved more people from being hurt. But, of course, this woke everybody up. Babies were crying, and you could see stuff flying all over the cabin. One of the flight attendants fell and cut her head. Blood was running down her arm. The guy next to me, he had been up getting a drink or something. He fell on the floor, and some other people were also hurt. I tell you, in thirty years of flying, I've never been so frightened. The sample question is based on the following conversation. Hi. My name is Yijing Wang. I'm the president of the Taiwan Student Association. We're planning to organize a reception party next month, but I just got an email yesterday saying that there were some problems with our application. Okay. Hold on a moment. Let me get your event planning worksheet and see what's going on. Thanks. Ah, I see. Your worksheet is incomplete, so we're unable to process your application. You still need to check the event location. Where are you going to hold your event? Well, it's going to be in Aristotle Hall, Conference Room 305. Alright. Just check Aristotle and write down Room 305. Now, let's move on to the next section. Sample question. Where will the event be held? Questions 33 to 36 are based on the following conversation. What are you filling in that for? It's a questionnaire from Animal Care. It'll help us find out what pet would suit us. Are you thinking we should get a pet? I might be. Would you like a pet? We've never talked about it, but yes, I think I would. Let's answer the questions together and see what happens. Okay. I hope it's not a long survey. So question one. Why do we want a pet? A companion? Okay. I'll go with that. I've never owned a pet before. We had a rabbit when I was a kid. So let's answer C for this one. And I want something medium sized, not too big or small. Okay. Medium size. What about money? How much are we willing to spend? We can afford more than $100 per month, can't we? For sure. Let's look at the next question. We definitely take it to the vet when we need to. Obviously. Now, the last question. We're very responsible, aren't we? Definitely. 10 on a scale of 10. Now, let's find out what pet it recommends. A dog.

第 24 題。多久會發生一次足以摧毀一座城市的撞擊？範例題是根據以下廣播。午安，各位女士、先生。我是機長張傑森再次廣播。我們將在大約十五分鐘後開始降落至香港國際機場。根據飛航管制員的指示，我們預計將在大約三點著陸。請留在座位上並繫好安全帶。我謹代表星空航空全體同仁，感謝您搭乘我們的航班。第 25 題與第 26 題是根據以下談話。下廚真的非常有趣！這是一個充滿創造力的過程，因為你可以嘗試不同的食材與風味。你也可以探索不同的烹飪風格與傳統。可能性幾乎是無限的，特別是現在你幾乎可以在當地的超市買到任何東西。如果你是做飯給自己吃，這會直接帶來享受美食的樂趣。我的意思是，誰不喜歡吃東西呢？但我討厭洗碗的程度，幾乎和熱愛下廚的程度不相上下。對我來說，洗碗是一件痛苦的事。這只是一件你非做不可的差事。這件事一點創意也沒有，而且非常無聊。真遺憾，如果不忍受洗碗的痛苦，就無法享受下廚的樂趣。第 27 題與第 28 題是根據以下談話。誰不喜歡多了解自己的個性呢？誰不想知道自己真正的樣子？幾乎沒有人不想。而這大概就是人格特質測驗大受歡迎的原因。人格特質測驗就像是小測驗，但沒有標準答案。你只需針對一系列問題給出自己的答案，而這些答案就會揭示對你個性的洞察。例如，有一項測驗問你會送紅玫瑰還是白玫瑰給你的男友或女友。據說，選擇紅玫瑰的人期望在一段感情中付出更多，而選擇白玫瑰的人則期望從一段感情中獲得更多。當然，有些人比其他人更認真看待人格特質測驗，但大多數人都同意，它們至少非常有趣。第 29 題與第 30 題是根據以下報導。修剪或剪掉樹枝可以去除植物不健康或不需要的部分，並促進花朵和果實的生長。一般來說，最適合修剪的時間是在冬末、春季生長開始之前。德州農工大學的植物專家兼教授道格·威爾許博士提供了以下建議。修剪時，首先要清除枯死、折斷或生病的部分。在問題開始的地方剪斷。然後修剪任何與其他樹枝接觸的樹枝。只留下較強壯的那一根，或是位置較好的那一根。但威爾許博士也建議修剪不要過度。如果為植物選擇了合適的位置，就可以避免大量的修剪。這樣一來，植物就會按照大自然最初設計的方式生長。正如威爾許博士所說，人類往往會破壞大自然所創造的事物。因此，修剪時請務必謹慎。第 31 題與第 32 題是根據以下個人故事。在那之前，飛行一切正常。我們當時正飛越大西洋。接著，在沒有任何預警的情況下，飛機開始劇烈晃動。更糟的是，飛機往下掉了幾百英尺，然後又往下掉。這種情況發生了四次。這真的很恐怖。當時是凌晨兩點，大多數人都在睡覺，而且繫著安全帶。這保護了更多人免於受傷。但當然，這把所有人都吵醒了。嬰兒在哭泣，你可以看到東西在整個客艙裡亂飛。其中一名空服員摔倒並割傷了頭部。血順著她的手臂流下來。我旁邊的那個人，他當時剛站起來去拿飲料之類的。他摔倒在地上，還有其他一些人也受傷了。我告訴你，在三十年的飛行生涯中，我從未感到如此害怕。範例題是根據以下對話。嗨。我的名字是王怡婷。我是台灣學生會的會長。我們計劃下個月舉辦一場迎新派對，但我昨天剛收到一封電子郵件，說我們的申請有些問題。好的。請稍等一下。讓我拿一下你們的活動企劃表，看看是怎麼回事。謝謝。啊，我明白了。你們的企劃表填寫不完整，所以我們無法處理你們的申請。你們還需要確認活動地點。你們打算在哪裡舉辦活動？嗯，我們將在亞里斯多德館的 305 會議室舉辦。好的。只要勾選亞里斯多德，然後寫下 305 室即可。現在，讓我們進入下一個部分。範例問題：活動將在哪裡舉辦？第 33 題至第 36 題是根據以下對話。你填那張表要做什麼？這是來自動物關懷組織的問卷。它可以幫助我們找出適合我們的寵物。你是在考慮我們應該養寵物嗎？我可能有這個想法。你想要養寵物嗎？我們從未談過這件事，但沒錯，我想我想養。我們一起來回答這些問題，看看結果如何。好的。我希望這不是一份很長的調查。那麼第一題：為什麼我們想要寵物？當作伴侶？好的，我選這個。我以前從未養過寵物。我小時候養過一隻兔子。所以這一題我們選 C。而且我想要中等大小的，不要太大或太小。好的，中等大小。那預算呢？我們願意花多少錢？我們每個月負擔得起 100 美元以上，對吧？當然。我們來看下一題。需要時我們一定會帶牠去看獸醫。那是當然。現在，最後一個問題。我們非常負責任，對吧？絕對是。滿分十分的話是十分。現在，讓我們來看看它推薦什麼寵物。一隻狗。

Questions thirty one and thirty two are based on the following personal story. The flight had been normal up to that point. We were flying over the Atlantic Ocean. Then, without any warning, the plane started to shake violently. Worse yet, the plane fell a few 100 feet and then fell again. That happened four times. It was terrifying. It was 02:00 in the morning, and most people were sleeping and had their seat belts on. That saved more people from being hurt. But, of course, this woke everybody up. Babies were crying, and you could see stuff flying all over the cabin. One of the flight attendants fell and cut her head. Blood was running down her arm. The guy next to me, he had been up getting a drink or something. He fell on the floor, and some other people were also hurt. I tell you, in thirty years of flying, I've never been so frightened. The

第31題與第32題是根據以下個人故事。在那之前，飛行一切正常。我們正飛在大西洋上空。接著，在沒有任何預警的情況下，飛機開始劇烈搖晃。更糟糕的是，飛機突然下墜了幾百英尺，接著又往下掉。這種情況發生了四次，真的非常可怕。當時是凌晨兩點，大多數人都在睡覺而且繫著安全帶，這讓更多人免於受傷。但當然，這把所有人都吵醒了。嬰兒在哭鬧，你可以看到東西在機艙內到處亂飛。其中一位空服員摔倒並割傷了頭，鮮血順著她的手臂流下來。坐我旁邊的那個男人，他本來站起來要去拿飲料之類的，結果摔倒在地上，其他也有一些人受傷了。我跟你說，坐了三十年的飛機，我從來沒有這麼害怕過。

Are you thinking we should get a pet? I might be. Would you like a pet? We've never talked about it, but yes, I think I would. Let's answer the questions together and see what happens. Okay. I hope it's not a long survey. So question one. Why do we want a pet? A companion? Okay. I'll go with that. I've never owned a pet before. We had a rabbit when I was a kid. So let's answer C for this one. And I want something medium sized, not too big or small. Okay. Medium size. What about money? How much are we willing to spend? We can afford more than $100 per month, can't we? For sure. Let's look at the next question. We definitely take it to the vet when we need to. Obviously. Now, the last question. We're very responsible, aren't we? Definitely. 10 on a scale of 10. Now, let's find out what pet it recommends. A dog. Question 33. For how long have the man and woman been thinking of getting a pet? Question 34. Why did the speakers want to have a pet? Question 35. What can we learn from the conversation about the speakers? Question 36. What is the result of the survey?

第 33 至 36 題是基於以下對話。 你填那個要幹嘛？ 這是「動物關懷組織」的問卷，可以幫我們找出適合養什麼寵物。 你是在考慮我們要不要養寵物嗎？ 可能喔。你想養寵物嗎？ 我們以前從沒聊過這個，不過，對，我想養。 我們一起來做這些題目，看結果如何。 好啊，希望這份問卷不會太長。 那第一題：我們為什麼想養寵物？當作伴侶嗎？好，我就選這個。 我以前從沒養過寵物。我小時候養過一隻兔子。所以這題我們選 C 吧。 而且我想要中型大小的寵物，不要太大也不要太小。好，中型。 那預算呢？我們願意花多少錢？我們每個月負擔得起 100 美元以上，對吧？ 當然。我們來看下一題。需要的時候，我們一定會帶牠去看獸醫。這是一定的。 最後一題。我們非常有責任感，對吧？絕對是，滿分 10 分的話有 10 分。 現在來看看問卷推薦什麼寵物。一隻狗。 第 33 題：這名男子和女子考慮養寵物多久了？ 第 34 題：說話者為什麼想養寵物？ 第 35 題：關於說話者，我們能從對話中得知什麼？ 第 36 題：問卷調查的結果是什麼？

Question 36. What is the result of the survey? Questions 37 to 40 are based on the following talk. Welcome to Tony's Tabata Training Center! Let's start with some basic definitions.

This training style was developed by Japanese professor, doctor Izumi Tabata in the late nineteen nineties to train Olympic speed skaters. A classic Tabata workout is short. It lasts for only four minutes. It doesn't take much time, but it is probably one of the toughest four minutes you will ever experience. Moreover, this simple workout is very effective for fat loss. It helps you to burn calories and build muscles. Here's how Tabata training goes. First, workout hard for twenty seconds. Second, rest for ten seconds. Third, repeat eight times. The Tabata training style can be applied to just about any move and is very simple. For example, moves such as push ups, mountain climbers, jumping, squats and running are popular for Tabata training. However, Tabata beginners need to be cautious.

第 36 題。這項調查的結果是什麼？第 37 題至第 40 題是根據以下演講內容。歡迎來到東尼塔巴達訓練中心！我們先從一些基本定義開始。塔巴達訓練是一種高強度間歇訓練。這種訓練方式是由日本教授田畑泉醫學博士於 1990 年代末期所開發，最初用於訓練奧運競速滑冰選手。經典的塔巴達訓練時間很短，只持續四分鐘。它不需要花太多時間，但這很可能是你體驗過最艱難的四分鐘。此外，這種簡單的健身方式對減脂非常有效，能幫助你燃燒熱量並鍛鍊肌肉。以下是塔巴達訓練的進行方式：首先，全力運動二十秒；第二，休息十秒；第三，重複八次。塔巴達訓練模式幾乎可以應用在任何動作上，而且非常簡單。例如：伏地挺身、登山者式、跳躍、深蹲和跑步等動作，在塔巴達訓練中都很受歡迎。然而，塔巴達初學者需要特別小心。因為你的動作會很快，如果不夠專注，可能會受傷。如果你覺得自己需要燃燒熱量並鍛鍊肌肉，請在 7 月 31 日前加入我們，即可享有七折優惠。
