第一篇:
           The first capsule hotel has opened in Australia, where travellers rest in a small sleeping pod rather than an entire room. Capsule hotels, or pod hotels, have been a popular choice for business people and tourists in Japan for a long time, but never before have Aussies had a chance to try out the alternate overnight resting place on home soil.
          The properly named Capsule Hotel at Sydney’s bustling downtown contains 72 pods, each offering all the extras of a fully-functional hotel room, minus the bathroom and minibar — It updates the Japanese craze for a local crowd.
         Property developer Walter Guo said the venture was inspired by a trip to Japan where he saw first-hand how popular the idea had become for a cross-section of society. “I thought such special hotels would be a unique experience for a backpacker to stay in, but I found out that in Australia no one was doing it,” he added.
         As in Australia the usual accommodation is one big room for backpackers to share, Guo believes that the pod hotel will work because it is a better version of dormitory-style bunk beds and provides higher level of privacy and services. Each pod comes fully kitted out with a locker, a TV, USB plugs and headphone jacks, along with a mirror, dimmed lights and an alarm clock. Guests share a communal kitchenette and a laundromat.
         Priced at AU$50 (about NT$1,000) for a smaller pod and AU$70 (roughly NT$1,400) for a deluxe double bed, the new hotel option has been taking off. While a large part of the customers at Capsule Hotel is backpackers, interstate businessmen looking for an affordable, private space to sleep have also been making good use of the spot.
         Guo is confident his Capsule Hotel would be here to stay. “I think it’s in a great location and we’re offering something new — it works because it’s something people already accept but we’re making it even better,” he said.

【題組】1. Which of the following is true about Australia’s first capsule hotel?
(A) It was opened soon after Japan’s first capsule hotels.
(B) It is exactly named as how people usually call such a hotel.
(C) It is located in the rural area of Australia’s biggest city.
(D) It has attracted many but only backpackers so far.

第二篇:
         Did you know that Paris’s international landmark, now considered one of the world’s most famous buildings, had not always been so well-received? Built as an entrance and the centerpiece to the 1889 World’s Fair in the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, the all-steel structure seemed to rise oddly in an all classic Paris.
          It was heartily disliked by Parisian intellects and artists who signed a statement: “We, writers, painters, sculptors, architects, passionate lovers of the beauty, until now intact, of Paris, hereby protest with all our might, with all our indignation, in the name of French taste gone unrecognized, in the name of French art and history under threat, against the construction, in the very heart of our capital, of the useless and monstrous Eiffel Tower.” However, the renowned monument, currently regarded as a symbol of romance, survived all the hate.
         The Tower was initially intended to be demolished about 20 years after the exposition. Gustave Eiffel, who designed and oversaw the building of the Tower, knew then that its scientific uses could protect it from its adversaries and prolong its lifespan. He therefore specified and pushed for the Tower’s purposes: meteorological and astronomical observations, physics experiments, optical telegraph communications and wind studies. Finally and decisively he succeeded in saving the Tower by putting it forward as a monumental support antenna for wireless broadcasting.
         In the 1930s, after the Tower had remained the world’s tallest architecture for 41 years, many nicknames flourished in the press and publications, but later “the Iron Lady” just stuck and was picked up by the public. The word “Iron,” of course, means the structure is made of puddled iron, while the Tower is a “Lady” partly because the French noun tour (tower) is feminine and partly because the fine decorative meshed arches between its four pillars, or legs, look like a lacy skirt.

【題組】9. What was the most important key to preventing Eiffel Tower from being torn down?
(A) Turning it into a memorable structure for sending radio and television signals
(B) Promoting it as a symbol of romance for tourists from around the world
(C) Getting a popular nickname that boosted public fondness and support
(D) Allowing scientists to conduct many sorts of observations and experiments
