【題目】閱讀理解
Italy is one country where beauty is prized more than any other virtue(美德). That is, except in the small town of Piobbico, the self-declared World Capital of Ugly People. The road sign at the edge of the town even warns visitors that they are entering the ugly zone. People who consider themselves ugly have been gathering in Piobbico since the 1960s. That's when Ugly Club president Telesforo Lacobelli established a dating agency for women who believed they were too ugly to attract husbands. Lacobelli believes that he is ugly himself because he has a short nose in a country where long or large noses have always been considered beautiful.
People from around the world travel to Piobbico to tell their sad stories of ugliness. During the annual Festival of the Ugly, which occurs on the first Sunday of every September, hundreds of people gather in Piobbico's town square to elect the president of the Ugly Club. Lacobelli wins the election every year. The Ugly Club has over 20, 000 members. They carry ID cards that grade their ugliness from bearable to extreme. A prize is awarded to Ugly Club members who qualify as extremely ugly.
The Ugly Club president insists that ugliness is a virtue. Since beautiful people get a lot of attention for their beauty alone, they have to work hard to prove their other virtues. Ugly people, on the other hand, are genuine and do not have to prove anything to anybody, according to Lacobelli.
Lacobelli is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere. He believes that the uglier one is, the better life can be. Though the club enjoys making fun of beauty, especially beauty contests, Lacobelli has a serious side as well. He believes that too many people suffer from financial and emotional pressures because they don't meet society's standards of beauty. The fact that beautiful people are more successful in the workforce is a problem that Lacobelli has attempted to bring forward to the Italian public and government.
(1)Piobbico is rather special in that_________ .
A.it is a very small town
B.it is home to ugly people
C.it receives no visitors
D.it is the capital of Italy
(2)Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Ugly people are most respected in Italy.
B.The Festival of the Ugly is held every two years.
C.Ugly people are unfairly treated in society.
D.The uglier one is, the better life he or she lives.
(3)Why is Lacobelli elected the president of the Ugly Club every year?
A.Because he is the ugliest person in the whole world.
B.Because his ugliness is always graded as bearable.
C.Because he is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere.
D.Because he was won the member's trust and admiration.
(4)Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Ugly Capital of the World
B.The Ugliest Person of the World
C.Festival of the Ugly
D.Beauty Contests Should be Banned.

【題目】One of the two major types of smog - consisting of smoke fog, sulfur dioxide (二氧化硫), sulfuric acid, ash, and soot (煤煙) -is called London smog. Indeed, the word smog is thought to have originated in England in 1905 as a short form of the words “smoke” and “fog.”

Probably the worst case of smog in history started in London on Thursday, 4 December, 1952. 1 A temperature inversion (逆溫) placed a blanket of warm air over the cold air. With nightfall, a thick fog and below-freezing temperatures caused the people of London to put coal into their small stoves. Millions of these fires burned throughout the night, pouring sulfur dioxide and smoke into the air. The next day, Friday, the people continued to bum coal when the temperature remained below freezing.2

Saturday was a day of darkness. For twenty miles around London, no light came through the smog. The air was cold and still.3 On Monday, 8 December, more than one hundred people died of heart attacks while trying desperately to breathe.4

By the time a light wind cleared the air on Tuesday, 9 December, more than 4,000 deaths had been caused by the smog. This is more people than were ever killed in any single hurricane, mine disaster, shipwreck, or airplane crash.5 Air pollution events may not seem as serious and shocking as other disasters, but they can be just as deadly.

A. Where does “smog” come from?

B. Soot and ash can be removed in a scientific way.

C. And the coal fires continued to bum throughout the weekend.

D. A large cold air mass moved into the valley of the Thames River.

E. The factories added their smoke and chemical gas to the atmosphere.

F. This is more people than were killed in the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.

G. The city’s hospitals were overflowing with patients with breathing-related diseases.

【題目】I have been living in Toulouse for over four months now and I can safely say that my ability to talk to French people has improved in an unbelievable way. I was told before I came out to France by a man I respected that living abroad would be the making of me.1Here is my four-step guide to living in a foreign country:

1.Integrate(融合) with the culture and the people. It is very easy to go to work and just come straight home but this will lead to periods of huge boredom and loneliness.2Until recently, I did not believe that a friend made on a year abroad is a friend for life but now I do.

2.3I joined a church in Toulouse and as a result I now have a place to go to practice my faith. If you are a religious person this point could really help you. If you enjoy your exercise, joining a gym is also a good idea.

3.Speak the language. Even if you can’t speak the local language well, at least make efforts to try and improve.4

4.Travel.5More importantly, it gives you memories that allow you to tell others of your experiences.

These are four things that allowed me to safely integrate into a totally foreign culture. Trust me, you don’t know how young and inexperienced you are until you live abroad for the first time.

A. Travelling around the country passes the time

B. I can tell you that his words proved to be true

C. Share with others some of the things you have

D. Get into organizations that help you meet people

E. Good luck to anyone who reads this and goes abroad

F. The best thing to do is to go out and meet people everywhere

G. This helps you become a more fluent speaker and more people will talk to you

Vocabulary is a key part of learning a new language. Maybe you can't learn a hundred new words a day, but you can learn one or two a day, totaling thousands of new words over the years. Here are some tips for building up your vocabulary.
Make a plan to learn new words. If you want to improve your vocabulary more quickly, you have to make at least a small promise.
Make you vocabulary practical(實(shí)用的). For example, learn more of your trade language---- the words that are commonly used in your business or hobby or vocation(職業(yè)). Find better, fresher, clearer words to express what your friends are talking about.
As you read, if you come across a new word that you don't understand. Don't miss it. Take the time to look it up in a dictionary. Write it down and use it later.
When you learn a word, use it immediately and frequently. Put your new word into conversation with as many different people as you can. Use it in sentences. Write it on a card and practice it while waiting for red lights.
A. Repeat it to yourself.
B. They're highly reusable
C. Start learning where you are.
D. Decide to learn one new word every day or two.
E. When you're writing something, use a dictionary frequently
F. Start by learning the words that can express what's most important to you.
