In ancient times, particularly within the Roman Empire, bathing was almost entirely a public affair. Only the wealthiest few had their own private baths, while everyone else participated in the ritual of communal bathing, which often took place in sprawling bath complexes and included massages, libraries, and even food and drink.       “There’s lots of artistic illustrations showing parties and things going on in the baths and people having dinner in the bath,” says Virginia Smith, a historian and author of Clean: A History of Personal Hygiene and Purity.       For the ancient Greeks, bathing was often a ritualistic self-purification before religious rites or welcoming guests, according to Katherine Ashenburg, author of The Dirt on Clean: An Unsanitized History. Traditional Japanese-style bathhouses were used for both therapeutic and religious purposes, and later as social gathering places. Russian banyas and Turkish hammams were also historically important hubs of social and religious activity.        “Bathing was not always connected in people’s minds with cleanliness,” Ashenburg says. “Sometimes getting in water was thought to be, not just doing nothing for you in terms of becoming clean, but was actually dangerous to your health.”       During the Black Death, for instance, public baths closed because Medieval Europeans believed that opening the pores with hot water would allow the plague to enter through the skin. Though this thinking was incorrect, there were hygiene concerns in public baths, according to James Hamblin, a physician and lecturer at Yale University and author of Clean: The New Science of Skin and the Beauty of Doing Less. “Some accounts of ancient bath houses…described layers of slime across the surface of the water,” he says. “If anything, you were exposing yourself to pathogens.”

V. Please read the following article which presents both advantages and limitations of virtual travel. Do you think it is an effective way to balance exploration and conservation? Write an essay of about 200 words, expressing your opinions and reflections. Support your ideas with specific reasons, examples, or personal experience.                     Can Virtual Travel Replace In-person Tourism?       Travel has long been valued as a way to discover new places, encounter different cultures, and experience the beauty of nature. Yet modern tourism also creates serious problems. In many populardestinations, large numbers of visitors put pressure on local communities, damage natural habitats,and contribute to pollution. As a result, people have started to ask whether there are more responsibleways to make exploration accessible without exploitation.      One possible answer is virtual travel. With the help of digital technology, live-streaming devices, or remotely operated cameras, people can observe distant places without physically goingthere. Supporters believe this method may reduce the harmful effects of overtourism while still allowing people to learn about natural environments and cultural sites. It may also give access tothose who cannot travel casily because of age, cost, time, or physical condition.      In addition, virtual travel may serve educational purposes. Students can use it to study geography, wildlife, or environmental issues in a more direct and engaging fashion. Some also arguethat such experiences can inspire people to care more about conservation by helping them see fragile places without disturbing them.      However, not everyone is convinced that virtual travel through a screen is a satisfying substitute for in-person tourism. Using a phone, flying a drone, and watching a destination is very differentfrom actually being there, interacting with local people, and experiencing the atmosphere first-hand. Critics also point out that travel is not only about seeing; it is also about human connection, culturalunderstanding, and personal growth. These are difficult to reproduce through technology alone.     For this reason, virtual travel may be best seen not as a permanent replacement for traditional travel, but as an alternative approach to exploring the world. Whether it can truly balance explorationand conservation remains open to debate.

II. Please design five reading comprehensive questions based on the passage aligned with the format of the GSAT questions. The questions should test various reading skills, with the firsttwo focusing on identifying the main idea and making inferences. At least three different question types must be included (e.g., multiple-choice, matching, sequencing, fill-in-the-blanks,completion of tables/charts/graphic organizers, or short-answer questions). Please provide an answer key.  Recent studies suggest that GLP-1 drugs, originally designed for diabetes and weight loss, mayoffer a groundbreaking approach to treating addiction. A comprehensive study reveals that thesemedications could reduce the risk of developing substance use disorders and minimize the severe consequences of addictive behaviors. The research team, led by Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, analyzed health records from over 600,000 patients. They compared GLP-1 users with those taking SGLT2 inhibitors. Unlike SGLT2 drugs, whichprimarily affect the kidneys to remove excess sugar, GLP-1 medications target the mesolimbic system in the brain. This region governs reward signals that reinforce cravings for food, alcohol,nicotine, and opioids. By suppressing these signals, GLP-1 drugs effectively "quiet" the brain's desire for addictive substances by suppressing the "food noise" or craving signals that lead todependency. The results were significant. Compared to people prescribed an SGLT2 inhibitor, participants taking GLP-1 drugs showed a 14% to 25% lower risk of developing new addictions. For thosealready struggling with substance abuse, the drugs were associated with a 39% reduction in overdoses and a 50% decrease in drug-related deaths. "There is no precedent in our medical toolkitfor a single medicine that works across such a wide range of addictive substances," Al-Aly noted. Despite these promising findings, experts remain cautious about the long-term implications. One major concern is the "rebound effect." Similar to weight loss patients regaining weight afterstopping the medication, addiction cravings might return "with a vengeance" once the drug is discontinued. Furthermore, it remains unclear whether the brain will develop a tolerance to the treatment over time. Scientists still need to determine the ideal dose and duration required to maintain these benefits safely. While Dr. Al-Aly says that if people qualify for the drugs because they have diabetes or are overweight or obese, and they also want to quit smoking, stop drinking, or control their opioiddependence, then the GLP-1 medications could help. Further research is needed to resolve these uncertainties before GLP-1 can be officially established as a new class of anti-addiction medication.

I. Please merge the two texts and rewrite them into a short essay of approximately 300 words. Design a 10-option Banked Cloze Test with a difficulty level suitable for 12th-grade studentsat Kaohsiung Girls' Senior High School. Answers must be provided. Passage A:     As our daily existence increasingly migrates to the cloud, the management of our digital legacy has surfaced as a painful social dilemma. For grieving families, access to a deceased loved one's socialmedia and cloud storage is far more than a matter of curiosity; it is a vital component of the healing process. In the past, memories were preserved in physical photo albums or handwritten letters. Today,these precious records are locked behind rigid security protocols, leaving families emotionally stranded.    Advocates for "digital inheritance" laws argue that these assets should be legally recognized as personal property, passing automatically to the next of kin. Without such protections, technologycompanies act as unintended gatekeepers, often deleting years of family history due to "inactivity."Furthermore, many individuals now store crucial information-ranging from final letters to financialdetails--exclusively in digital formats. To deny family access is to ignore the reality of how one lives and loves in the 21st century. The emotional and practical value of these records demands a radicalshift in the legal definitions of ownership, ensuring that a person's legacy does not expire the moment their heart stops beating. Passage B:     The debate over the digital afterlife rests on a fundamental philosophical question: should our online presence be treated as transferable property or as a private, lifelong extension of our personality?While the emotional plea of grieving families is moving, technology companies face a conflicting duty: the absolute preservation of user privacy. A digital account is not merely a modern photo album; it isa vast archive of private interactions, many of which the user may have intended to keep confidential,even from relatives.     Granting third-party access even to legal heirs-would set a dangerous precedent that undermines the privacy of encrypted data. Tech firms argue that opening a deceased person's messagescould unintentionally expose the sensitive data of other living individuals who communicated with that user under the assumption of privacy. This would constitute a betrayal of trust. Instead of intrusive  laws, the focus should remain on "proactive management." Many platforms now offer tools like "legacy contacts," empowering users to decide the fate of their data long before they pass away. Byutilizing these features, users can exercise their human agency, deciding what to share and what to take to the grave, which effectively protects the privacy of the deceased and their contacts over theemotional comfort of the living.
