說明： 以下短文共有 10 個空格，每個空格有四個選項，請根據文意與文法選出最適當的答案。
Food waste has become one of the most pressing yet overlooked environmental issues of our time. According to the United Nations, approximately one-third of all food produced globally is lost or wasted each year. This amounts to roughly 1.3 billion tons of food annually, (11) _____ an estimated economic cost of nearly $1 trillion. If food waste were a country, it would be the third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases, (12) _____ only China and the United States.
The environmental impact of food waste extends far beyond the methane it produces when it decomposes in landfills. (13) _____ one considers all the resources that go into producing food that is never eaten—the water, land, energy, labor, and transportation—the scale of the waste becomes (14) _____ more alarming. The water used to grow food that is ultimately wasted each year could fill Lake Geneva three times over.
Food waste occurs at every stage of the supply chain, but the patterns (15) _____ significantly between developed and developing countries. In developing nations, most food waste occurs during production and distribution (16) _____ to inadequate storage facilities, poor infrastructure, and lack of refrigeration. In developed countries, by contrast, the majority of waste occurs at the retail and consumer levels, where perfectly edible food is discarded because of cosmetic imperfections, overly (17) _____ “best before” dates, or simply because consumers buy more than they can eat.
Addressing food waste requires action at (18) _____ levels. Governments can pass legislation to standardize date labels and incentivize food donation.

Reading for pleasure is one of the most (21) _____ habits a young person can develop, yet in an age dominated by screens and social media, it is a habit that fewer and fewer teenagers seem to cultivate. Research consistently shows that students who read regularly for enjoyment perform better academically across all subjects—not just in language arts, but in mathematics and science as well. The benefits of (22) _____ reading extend far beyond the classroom, however, shaping cognitive development, emotional intelligence, and even empathy.
The mechanism behind these wide-ranging benefits is relatively straightforward. Reading exposes the mind to a far greater (23) _____ of vocabulary, sentence structures, and ideas than everyday conversation typically provides. While spoken language tends to be repetitive and (24) _____ in scope, written texts—from novels to news articles—introduce readers to words and concepts they would rarely encounter in daily life. This constant exposure builds the linguistic (25) _____ on which all academic learning depends.
Furthermore, reading fiction in particular has been shown to (26) _____ empathy and social understanding. When we immerse ourselves in a story, we essentially practice experiencing the world from another person’s perspective, feeling what they feel and seeing what they see. Psychologists have (27) _____ this the “narrative transportation” effect. Studies using brain imaging have found that reading about a character’s experiences activates many of the same neural pathways that would be engaged if the reader were actually living through those experiences.
Reading also cultivates deep focus, a cognitive skill that is increasingly (28) _____ in a world designed to fragment our attention. Unlike the rapid, shallow processing that characterizes much of our interaction with digital media, reading a book requires sustained concentration and the ability to follow a complex thread of ideas over time. This capacity for deep focus is not just useful for academic success; it is a skill that will serve students well in whatever career they (29) _____ pursue.
In an educational culture that too often treats reading as a chore—something to be tested on and graded—it is worth remembering that the deepest benefits of reading come not from reading (30) _____ we are told to, but from reading what genuinely interests us. The student who reads for love, not for grades, is the student who reaps the richest rewards.
威威老師小提醒
這篇文意選填的主題是「閱讀」──既生活化又有深度。文意選填中最難判斷的通常是那幾個「詞性相同、意思也接近」的選項，例如
valuablevseffective（都是正面形容詞）。這種情況要從搭配詞和語境來判斷：valuable habits（有價值的習慣）vseffective（通常搭配 methods/solutions/treatments），所以「習慣」搭配valuable比effective自然。
四、篇章結構（Text Organization）— 5 題，每題 2 分，共 10 分
說明： 以下短文共有 5 個句子被拿掉，請從方框中的 6 個選項中選出最適合的句子填入各空格。
選項方框：
(A) In addition, many students discover that teaching a concept to someone else is one of the most powerful ways to solidify their own understanding—a phenomenon known as the “protégé effect.”
(B) One widely recommended technique is the Pomodoro Method, which involves working in focused 25-minute intervals separated by short breaks.
(C) When used correctly, notetaking transforms from a passive recording activity into an active thinking process that deepens learning significantly.
(D) For example, instead of copying the teacher’s exact words, try paraphrasing the key ideas in your own language—this forces the brain to process the information actively rather than just transcribing it.
(E) However, research on learning science suggests that many of the study habits students rely on most heavily are, in fact, among the least effective.
(F) These kinds of active learning strategies, while requiring more mental effort in the moment, produce dramatically better long-term retention than passive approaches.
Every student wants to study more effectively, and over the years, certain study techniques have become deeply entrenched in school culture. Highlighting textbooks, rereading notes, and cramming the night before an exam are practices that generations of students have sworn by. (31) _______________
For instance, highlighting and rereading have been repeatedly shown to provide little more than an illusion of learning. Students who highlight passages in their textbooks often feel productive, but the act itself requires minimal cognitive engagement. Similarly, rereading notes or textbook chapters creates a misleading sense of familiarity that students easily mistake for actual understanding. (32) _______________ The key difference lies in the depth of processing: active learning strategies force students to retrieve, reorganize, and apply information, while passive strategies merely expose them to it.
(33) _______________ One particularly effective approach is “active recall,” which involves trying to retrieve information from memory without looking at the source material. Instead of simply rereading a chapter on the French Revolution, a student practicing active recall would close the book and try to write down or explain everything they can remember about the key events, figures, and causes. This retrieval practice strengthens the neural pathways associated with that information, making it far easier to recall during an exam.
Another evidence-based technique is distributed practice, colloquially known as “spacing.” Rather than studying a topic intensively in a single long session, students who distribute their study over multiple shorter sessions spread across days or weeks retain significantly more information. (34) _______________
(35) _______________ These methods may feel harder and less satisfying than highlighting or rereading, but that very difficulty is a sign that genuine learning is taking place. The science is clear: the strategies that feel easiest are often the ones that teach us the least.

五、閱讀測驗（Reading Comprehension）— 16 題，每題 2 分，共 32 分
說明： 以下共有四篇文章，題材多元，難度貼近真實學測。
Passage 1: The Origin of Emojis
In 1999, a Japanese designer named Shigetaka Kurita created a set of 176 simple pictograms for a mobile internet platform. Each pictogram was just 12 by 12 pixels, rendered in a single color, and depicted a basic concept or emotion: a heart, a smiley face, a cup of coffee, a musical note. Kurita could not possibly have known it at the time, but his humble creations—which he called “emoji,” from the Japanese words e (picture) and moji (character)—would grow into a global visual language used by billions of people every single day.
The explosive global popularity of emojis is largely due to their adoption by major technology companies. In 2010, emojis were incorporated into the Unicode Standard, the international system that ensures text and symbols are displayed consistently across different devices and platforms. This standardization made it possible for a smiling face sent from an iPhone to appear as a smiling face on an Android phone, removing the technical barriers that had previously limited emoji use. Apple added an emoji keyboard to the iPhone in 2011, and Android followed soon after. The rest, as they say, is history.
Today, more than 3,600 emojis are recognized by the Unicode Consortium, the nonprofit organization that oversees their standardization. New emojis are proposed, debated, and approved through a formal submission process that receives thousands of proposals each year. The consortium considers factors such as expected usage levels, distinctiveness from existing emojis, and whether a proposed emoji fills a gap in the existing set. Recent additions have included emojis representing people with disabilities, gender-neutral options, and culturally diverse foods and clothing—reflecting a growing awareness that a truly universal visual language must represent the full diversity of human experience.
Scholars have offered various perspectives on the cultural significance of emojis. Some linguists view them as a genuine evolution in written communication, pointing out that emojis serve similar functions to gestures and facial expressions in spoken conversation—adding emotional nuance and clarifying intent in ways that plain text often fails to capture. Critics, however, argue that emojis represent a simplification, even a degradation, of language, replacing precise expression with cartoonish approximation. Most researchers take a middle position: emojis are neither the savior nor the destroyer of language but rather a useful supplement that enriches digital communication when used thoughtfully.
36. What does the word “emoji” mean in Japanese?
(A) Digital communication (B) Picture character (C) Mobile internet (D) Global language
37. According to the passage, what was the significance of emojis being incorporated into the Unicode Standard in 2010?
(A) It allowed Apple to patent all emoji designs (B) It ensured emojis appeared consistently across different devices and platforms (C) It replaced traditional written languages with a new visual system (D) It limited emoji usage to Japanese mobile phones only
38. What factors does the Unicode Consortium consider when approving new emojis?
(A) Whether the proposed emoji is visually appealing and colorful (B) Whether a celebrity or politician has endorsed the emoji (C) Expected usage levels, distinctiveness, and whether it fills a gap in the existing set (D) The opinion of Shigetaka Kurita, the original emoji creator
39. What is the middle position that most researchers take on emojis, according to the passage?
(A) Emojis should completely replace written language (B) Emojis are a useful supplement that enriches digital communication (C) Emojis should be banned from all formal communication (D) Emojis have no effect on communication whatsoever
Passage 2: The Antikythera Mechanism
In 1901, sponge divers working off the coast of the Greek island of Antikythera made an extraordinary discovery: the wreckage of an ancient Roman cargo ship, filled with bronze and marble statues, pottery, coins, and other treasures. Among the artifacts recovered was a lump of corroded bronze and wood, about the size of a large dictionary, that initially attracted little attention. It was not until decades later, when the lump was X-rayed, that scientists realized what they had found: the remains of an astonishingly sophisticated mechanical device, now known as the Antikythera Mechanism, that has been described as the world’s oldest analog computer.
The device, dated to approximately 150-100 BC, consists of a complex system of at least 30 precision bronze gears housed in a wooden case. By turning a hand crank on the side, the user could set the mechanism in motion, and a series of pointers on its front and back faces would indicate the positions of the sun, moon, and planets, predict solar and lunar eclipses, and track the four-year cycle of the ancient Olympic Games. The level of mechanical sophistication evident in the device is so advanced that nothing comparable would appear again in the archaeological record for more than a thousand years—not until the development of complex astronomical clocks in medieval Europe.
The Antikythera Mechanism fundamentally challenges long-held assumptions about the technological capabilities of the ancient Greeks. Historians had long known that Greek astronomers, mathematicians, and philosophers made remarkable theoretical advances, but the general consensus was that their practical engineering capabilities were relatively limited. The Antikythera Mechanism reveals that at least some ancient Greeks possessed not only the theoretical knowledge of astronomy needed to design such a device but also the precision engineering skills required to manufacture it.
Despite decades of study using increasingly sophisticated imaging technologies, many questions about the Antikythera Mechanism remain unanswered. Who built it? Was it a one-of-a-kind creation, or did similar devices exist elsewhere in the ancient world? Did the knowledge and techniques used to create it contribute to later developments in mechanical engineering, or were they lost when the civilization that produced them declined? The Antikythera Mechanism is a reminder that history is full of gaps—and that the achievements of our ancestors may have been far more impressive than the surviving evidence suggests.
40. Where was the Antikythera Mechanism discovered?
(A) In a museum in Athens, Greece (B) In the wreckage of an ancient Roman ship off the coast of Antikythera (C) Buried in the desert near the Egyptian pyramids (D) Inside a cave in the Italian Alps
41. According to the passage, what could the Antikythera Mechanism do?
(A) Translate texts between Greek and Latin automatically (B) Generate electricity for lighting ancient Greek temples (C) Indicate the positions of celestial bodies and predict eclipses (D) Record voice messages for long-distance communication
42. How does the Antikythera Mechanism challenge assumptions about the ancient Greeks?
(A) It shows that their practical engineering skills were far more advanced than previously believed (B) It proves that the Greeks invented the Internet thousands of years ago (C) It demonstrates that ancient Greek astronomers were actually from Egypt (D) It reveals that the Greeks had no mathematical knowledge whatsoever
43. What unanswered question about the Antikythera Mechanism does the passage mention?
(A) How much did the device originally cost to manufacture (B) Were similar devices built elsewhere in the ancient world (C) Did the device belong to a famous Greek philosopher (D) Why was the device left on a Roman ship
Passage 3: Why We Forget
Forgetting is usually seen as a failure—a sign that our memory is not working as it should. We curse ourselves for forgetting someone’s name, lament blanking on an exam answer we knew the night before, and worry about what age-related memory loss might mean for our future. Yet a growing body of research in neuroscience and cognitive psychology suggests a counterintuitive conclusion: forgetting is not a bug in the system but an essential feature of a healthy, functioning brain.
The brain’s ability to forget is, in many ways, just as important as its ability to remember. If we remembered every single detail of every experience we have ever had, our minds would become cluttered with an overwhelming amount of irrelevant information. Imagine being unable to forget the exact layout of every supermarket you have ever visited, the face of every stranger you walked past on the street ten years ago, or every trivial conversation you overheard in a cafeteria. Forgetting allows the brain to prioritize—to retain what is useful and discard what is not—much as a computer periodically clears its cache to maintain optimal performance.
A landmark study published in the journal Neuron in 2017 provided compelling evidence that forgetting is an active biological process, not merely the passive decay of memories over time. Researchers found that the brain actively prunes synaptic connections during sleep, selectively strengthening some memories while allowing others to fade. This pruning process, far from being a sign of cognitive decline, appears to be essential for the brain’s ability to learn new information and adapt to changing environments. In other words, in order to learn, we must first forget.
The practical implications of this research are significant. The goal of effective studying should not be to try to remember everything—an impossible task—but to help the brain distinguish between what matters and what does not. Strategies such as active recall, spaced repetition, and teaching others work so well precisely because they signal to the brain that certain pieces of information are worth retaining. Conversely, mindlessly rereading notes sends a weak signal, making it more likely that the information will be pruned away during sleep.
44. According to the passage, why is forgetting actually beneficial?
(A) It makes room for more pleasant memories only (B) It allows the brain to prioritize useful information and discard what is irrelevant (C) It prevents people from feeling too proud of their achievements (D) It slows down the aging process in older adults
45. What did the 2017 study in Neuron demonstrate about forgetting?
(A) Forgetting is caused entirely by external factors like diet and exercise (B) Forgetting is an active biological process, not just passive decay (C) Forgetting can be completely prevented through certain medications (D) Forgetting only affects people over the age of 50
46. According to the passage, when does the brain actively prune synaptic connections?
(A) During intense physical exercise (B) While eating a large meal (C) During sleep (D) While watching television
47. Based on the passage, why do strategies like active recall and spaced repetition work well?
(A) They require expensive technology and specialized training (B) They signal to the brain that certain information is worth retaining (C) They eliminate the need for sleep entirely (D) They bypass the brain’s memory systems and store information externally
Passage 4: Container Ships and Globalization
On any given day, approximately 50,000 merchant ships are at sea, carrying roughly 90% of everything humanity produces, consumes, and trades. Among these vessels, none has been more transformative than the humble container ship—a vessel whose very name comes from the standardized metal boxes it carries, each one identical in its corner fittings and locking mechanisms, yet each potentially containing a completely different world of goods. The container ship is, quite simply, the physical backbone of globalization.
The story of the container begins with an American trucking entrepreneur named Malcolm McLean. In the 1950s, McLean grew frustrated watching dockworkers spend days loading and unloading cargo from ships one crate, barrel, and sack at a time—a process that had changed little since the age of sail. His insight was elegantly simple: instead of loading individual pieces of cargo onto ships, why not load entire truck trailers? The trailer itself could be detached from its wheels, stacked efficiently on a ship, and then reattached to a truck at the destination port. In 1956, McLean’s converted oil tanker, the Ideal-X, sailed from New Jersey to Texas carrying 58 metal containers—and the modern age of shipping was born.
The economic impact of containerization has been nothing short of revolutionary. Before containers, shipping costs often accounted for 10-20% of a product’s retail price, making long-distance trade prohibitively expensive for many goods. Containerization slashed these costs to a fraction of a percent, fundamentally reshaping the global economy. A factory in China can now manufacture clothing, electronics, or furniture and ship them halfway around the world to consumers in Europe or North America for a cost that adds only pennies to the final price of each item. This cost reduction has been a primary driver of the global supply chains that define the modern economy.
However, the global shipping system has also revealed profound vulnerabilities. When the container ship Ever Given became wedged in the Suez Canal in March 2021, it blocked passage through one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints for six days, holding up an estimated $9.6 billion worth of trade each day. The COVID-19 pandemic further exposed the fragility of just-in-time supply chains, causing shortages of everything from semiconductors to furniture. The very efficiency that makes container shipping so economically powerful also makes the global economy highly sensitive to disruptions at any single point in the system.
48. According to the passage, approximately what percentage of global trade is carried by sea?
(A) 50% (B) 70% (C) 90% (D) 100%
49. What was Malcolm McLean’s key innovation?
(A) Building faster ships that could cross the ocean in half the usual time (B) Using metal containers that could be transferred between ships and trucks (C) Inventing a new type of fuel that dramatically reduced shipping costs (D) Creating the first GPS navigation system for merchant ships
50. How did containerization affect shipping costs?
(A) It increased shipping costs to over 50% of product retail prices (B) It had no measurable effect on shipping costs (C) It reduced shipping costs from 10-20% of retail price to a fraction of a percent (D) It eliminated all costs associated with maritime trade
51. What vulnerability of the global shipping system does the passage highlight?
(A) Ships are unable to navigate at night or in bad weather (B) The system’s efficiency makes it highly sensitive to disruptions at any single point (C) Container ships can only carry one type of product at a time (D) Maritime trade is becoming less popular each year
六、混合題（Mixed Type）— 共 10 分
說明： 以下為一篇文章與 3 道混合題型，請根據文章內容回答問題。
Urban Green Spaces and Mental Health
As cities around the world continue to expand, urban planners and public health researchers are increasingly interested in the role that green spaces—parks, gardens, tree-lined streets, and community green areas—play in the mental well-being of city residents. The evidence from a growing number of large-scale studies is striking: access to green space in urban environments is strongly associated with better mental health outcomes, reduced stress levels, and even lower mortality rates.
A landmark study conducted in the Netherlands examined the medical records of over 345,000 people and found that those living within one kilometer of green space had significantly lower rates of anxiety and depression than those living in areas with little or no green space. The effect was strongest for children and people with lower incomes, suggesting that green spaces may play a particularly important protective role for vulnerable populations. Subsequent research in countries including Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States has produced similar findings.
The mechanisms linking green spaces to mental health appear to be multiple and interconnected. Green spaces encourage physical activity, which itself is a powerful protective factor against depression and anxiety. They provide settings for social interaction, helping combat the loneliness and social isolation that have reached what some researchers describe as epidemic proportions. There is also evidence that simply being able to see trees and vegetation from one’s window can lower stress levels, even if one is not physically present in a green space. Japanese researchers have pioneered the study of “forest bathing” (shinrin-yoku), demonstrating that spending time in forests reduces cortisol levels, lowers blood pressure, and enhances immune function.
However, not all city residents have equal access to green spaces. Research consistently shows that wealthier neighborhoods tend to have more parks, more trees, and better-maintained green areas than lower-income neighborhoods. This “green inequality” means that the very populations who stand to benefit most from access to nature—those facing economic hardship, higher stress levels, and fewer resources for private recreation—are often those least likely to have a park or green space nearby. Addressing this disparity has become a priority for progressive urban planning movements around the world.
52. Fill in the Blank（填空題，2 分）
According to the passage, the protective effect of green spaces was strongest for two particular groups: _____ and people with lower incomes.

威威老師示範作文（Model Essay）
The survey reveals a striking imbalance in how Taiwanese high school students spend their extracurricular time. Out of roughly 31 hours of recorded activities per week, over half is devoted to using smartphones and social media, which accounts for 16.5 hours. Academic tutoring comes in second at 8.2 hours. In stark contrast, physical exercise, reading, and club activities together amount to just 6.3 hours combined.
Several factors may explain this pattern. Smartphones are designed to be addictive, and for many teenagers, social media serves as both entertainment and a primary channel for social connection. The heavy emphasis on tutoring reflects the intense academic competition in Taiwan, where high-stakes exams like the GSAT shape students’ priorities. Activities like sports and reading, which require more initiative and offer more delayed rewards, naturally fall to the bottom of the list.
The consequences of this imbalance are concerning. Excessive screen time has been linked to sleep deprivation, reduced attention spans, and higher levels of anxiety among adolescents. Meanwhile, the lack of physical exercise may contribute to declining fitness levels, and limited reading could narrow students’ vocabulary and general knowledge. While tutoring may boost exam scores, the narrow focus on test preparation may come at the expense of creativity and independent thinking.
In my view, schools and parents should work together to help students achieve a healthier balance. Schools could reduce homework loads to free up time for sports and reading, while parents could set reasonable limits on screen time at home. Most importantly, students themselves need to recognize that while scrolling through social media feels satisfying in the moment, the activities that truly enrich their lives often require a bit more effort to begin.

最終答案：31.(E), 32.(F), 33.(D), 34.(A), 35.(C) 多餘選項：(B)，Pomodoro Method 雖然常見但與本文的學習科學核心論證偏離。
五、閱讀測驗

七、中譯英
| 題號 | 參考答案 | 評分要點 |
|---|---|---|
| 55 | Many studies show that regular exercise not only can improve physical health but also can effectively reduce stress and enhance sleep quality. | not only...but also... 對等結構 2 分；用字準確（regular exercise, reduce stress, sleep quality）1 分；整體通順 1 分。 |
| 56 | Faced with the threats posed by global warming, countries around the world must work together to find sustainable solutions. | Faced with + N 分詞構句 2 分；用字準確（global warming, sustainable solutions）1 分；整體通順 1 分。若寫 Hand in hand 替代 work together 也可，但稍嫌口語。 |
中譯英扣分重點（Mock 5 最終提醒）
- 拼字是翻譯題的「隱形殺手」。
exercise（不是 excercise）、quality（不是 quallity）、sustainable（不是 sustanable）──每個拼字錯誤扣 0.5 分，三個就 1.5 分了。- 第 56 題若寫成
Face with the threats（少了 d）就是文法錯誤，扣 1 分。Faced with是固定被動分詞構句。- 翻譯的字數不需太長，兩句話通常 15-25 字就夠。寫得越長越容易出錯。
