Strange things happen to time when you travel, because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones, one hour apart. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.

Task 2
Directions: This task (No.51 to 55) is the same as Task1
Today almost 70% of the electrical power we use comes from power plants that use fossil fuels (礦物燃料) to make electricity. Fossil fuels, such as oil, coal, and natural gas, are burned to make electricity. Burning fossil fuels releases pollution and carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the air. The more fossil fuels we burn, the warmer the air around Earth gets. So building fossil fuel plans is not always the best answer.
Actually, there are other ways to make electricity without burning fossil fuels. People have been using the power of wind for centuries. Wind power won’t solve all our energy problems, but it can help meet some of the demands in certain places. Since the late 1800s, scientists have been working to turn the sun’s energy into electricity by using solar cells (太陽能電池). The problem is, solar cells are very expensive. Another way to make electricity is to use nuclear energy. It has been used for more than 50 years. Today about 10 percent of all the electricity used in the U.S.A. comes from this source.
Although nuclear power doesn’t pollute the air as the burning of fossil fuels does, there is a major drawback . The waste products from nuclear power plants are dangerous and must be stored in safe places. Many people are concerned about the safety of nuclear power.
best title for this passage may be ________
Importance of Electricity
Pollution of Making Electricity from Fossil Fuels
Advantage of Using Nuclear Energy
s of Making Electrical Power
h energy has damage to us according to the passage?
power il fuels
r power r power
can infer from the passage that _________
ing fossil fuels to make electricity is widely used
power is a widespread way to make electricity
gy problems will soon be solved
ear energy will solve all the energy problems we are facing
does the underlined word “drawback”(in Para.3)mean?
ct ntage dvantage ern
h of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
il fuels should be encouraged to use to make electricity
all the areas could use wind power.
r energy costs the most
g nuclear energy will not produce negative effect.
Task 3
Directions: This task (No.56 to No.60) is the same as Task 1.
A new study by the Development of Health in tai shows that more than half of the adult population in tai lacks an understanding of health problems.
More than 2,000 adults took part in the survey to find out about their knowledge of diet, health-care, disease control and medicine. Surprisingly, only 51% of the people surveyed understand that common cold has no cure, and taking medicine is absolutely no use at all. The problem is mad worse by doctors who give their patients large doses of useless drugs. More than two-thirds believe that it is only the nicotine in cigarettes rather than the other chemicals that causes cancer. These people believe that if they smoke “light” cigarettes with less nicotine, they will lead to more illness, suffering and early death.
But the outlook for health education in tai is not all negative. The survey concludes that younger taiese have a better understanding of health concerns than their parents, while senior citizens have the least understanding among the three age groups.

Dear Mr. Robert,
Although we sent you your goods on time, we have waited nearly two months for you to pay the balance of $5000, which is over due. When you ordered the shipment of computers, you requested that we send you the entire order no later than June 1, and we shipped the goods by air freight on May 25.
As you agreed in our original credit arrangement (賒賬協議), payment was due in 30 days, on June 30. Yet, as it is already August 26, we still have not received your payment. In fact, we have not received any answer to the notice we sent to remind you that the payment is due.
We regret to say that if we cannot receive your payment by September 15, we will be forced to ask our lawyer to take measures and collect it through legal procedures.
Yours faithfully,
Adam Smith
