In 1993,a collector, Louis Caldor, happened to see several of Grandma Moses' works (hang) in a shop. He liked them (buy) them at once, and set out to look for (much).Caldor held show to introduce the works of Grandma Moses to other artists. Grandma Moses, was world-famous ,died on December 13, 1961,at the age of 101.

【答案】but；because/when；carefully；herself；for；hanging；bought；more；a；who
【解析】很少會有人在76歲時考慮開始一份新工作，但是一位美國藝術家做到了。本文講的就是這位美國藝術家的故事。

（1）but前后是轉折關系，所以填but。

（2）because/when后面接的從句是她轉行開始畫畫的原因。從句也可視作時間狀語從句，填when。故答案可為because或when。

（3）carefully修飾謂語動詞painted，作狀語，用副詞，故填carefully。

（4）herself由后文“開始賣作品給別人”可知，她先只是自己畫給自己看，取悅于自己。故填herself。

（5）for表示交換用for, sell sth．for…意為“以多少錢賣某物”。故填for。

（6）hanging非謂語動詞短語作定語，修飾名詞works，因works與hang(懸掛)是主動關系，用現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語。故填hanging。

（7）bought與liked和set out并列，一起作謂語，時態(tài)也應一致。故填過去式bought。

（8）more因他喜歡她的畫，所以他開始尋找“更多”Grandma Moses的作品。故填more。

（9）a為了把Grandma Moses的作品介紹給別的藝術家，所以他“舉行了一次展覽”。故用不定冠詞a。

（10）who引導定語從句并在從句中作主語，先行詞是Grandma Moses。故填who。

People need homes: children assume their 【1】 (parent) place as home; boarders call school "home" on weekdays; and【2】(marry) couples work together to build new homes.

So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time? Don't they have the right【3】(own)a home? Of course they do.

Some regular 【4】(travel) take their own belongings: like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel【5】at home no matter where they are. Some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as 【6】 result become very familiar with service and attend- ants. Others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely.

Furthermore, driving a camping car during one's travels and【7】(sleep) in the vehicle at night are just like home.

Nowadays, fewer people 【8】(work) in their local towns, so【9】do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home" waiting to 【10】 (find). Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination, we can make the place where we stay "home".

【題目】New research brings some good news for lovers of spicy(辛辣的) foods, after finding that eating hot red chili peppers might help to extend lifespan（壽命）.

Consuming hot red chili peppers might reduce death risk, say Chopan and Littenberg from the research team. In hot peppers, such as Mexico peppers, the strong flavor comes from a compound(復合物), which does not exist in sweet peppers or onions. Studies have suggested that this compound can offer a welth of health benefits.

A study of more than 16,000 people in the United States revealed that individuals who consumed red chili peppers had a lower risk of death from all causes over an average of 18 years than those who did not eat the spicy food. Compared with participants who did not consume hot red chili peppers, those who did were found to be at 13 percent reduced risk of all-cause death.

For example, a recent study reported by Medical News Today, found that the compound might have the potential to stop breast cancer, while an earlier study linked the compound to a reduced risk of digest system cancers. Still, the available data suggested that hot red chili pepper consumption was most strongly associated with a reduced risk of death from heart disease.

While the researchers are unable to identify the concrete compound by which red chili peppers might extend lifepan, the team says that it is likely due to the compound that is effectively against obesity(肥胖癥).

Overall, the team says that these latest findings support those of the 2015 study, linking spicy food intake to reduced risk of death by showing “a significant decrease in death associated with hot red chili pepper consumption.” However, Chopan and Littenberg note that the earlier study was only conducted in Chinese adults, so the now research makes these findings more credible.

【1】What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The study only goes for American people.

B. Red chili pepper can all-cause disease.

C. The compound protects people against obesity.

D. Onion consuming can reduce death risk.

【2】What is the finding of the new research mainly about?

A. Hot red chili pepper lovers develop no cancers.

B. Hot red chili peppers help control breast illness.

C. Hot red chili peppers decrease heart disease.

D. Hot red chili pepper intake may increase lifespan.

【3】Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “credible”?

A. Convincing. B. Practical. C. Encouraging. D. Attractive.

【題目】根據短文內容，選擇最佳答案。
There is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident. After the accident, only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.
He was a brilliant, creative, and educated man. He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world, so he became very depressed after his accident. He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way. Then, he realized that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult. An idea occurred to him, “Why not write to other people who need encouragement?”
He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied, “Writing to the prisoners is acceptable, but your letters will not be answered.”
Filled with excitement, the man knew he could write his letters. He began sending one-way messages of God's love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, testing his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith.
It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of a reply. One day he received a letter from the prison ministry. It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.
The letter said, “Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from room to room until they fall to pieces!”
No matter what circumstances life may present, we all have unique experiences, abilities, and God-given talents. We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength.

【題目】閱讀理解
Instagram is containing so many photos of food—now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.
I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK,I'd probably do it too.“The Picture House” is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order, click a photo of the food,share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人) Birds Eye,who came up with the idea to cash in on people's addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online.They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals.So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.
The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May,and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for,if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye's 'Food for Life' campaign,a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food."Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special," said marketing director Margaret Jobling .
The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far.And The pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way.Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses.Last year,in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there,not by what they eat.
（1）Instagram probably is ____.
A.a restaurant free of charge
B.a program used to share photos
C.a new marketing project
D.a campaign of "Food for Life"
（2）”The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to ____.
A.raise the price of frozen food
B.reward the regular customers
C.create a new social media trend
D.attract more customers
（3）Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?
A.No Need to Pay.
B.The Pop-up Diner.
C.Pay by Picture.
D.Food for Life.
