請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題 The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species(CITES) took place in Doha, Qatar, between March 12 and 25, 2010. The representatives of 175 member nations discussed several animal species that are in danger of becoming extinct because of trade, both legal and illegal. CITES secretary-general Willem Wijnstekers said, “If we use tiger numbers as a performance indicator, then we must admit that we have failed miserably.” Human encroaching and illegal trade in tiger parts have contributed to the fall in their numbers from 100,000 at the beginning of the 20th century to around 3,600 today. Bans were proposed on legal trading in certain species. Japan is the largest importer of the Atlantic bluefin tuna. The fish is the key ingredient in sushi, a Japanese delicacy. Stocks of this fish have fallen by 75% due to widespread overfishing. Monaco, a European nation, proposed a ban on fishing. The World Wildlife Fund world call for restaurants, retailers, chefs and consumers around the world to stop selling, serving, buying and eating the endangered fish. The USA proposed a ban on the international sale of polar bear skins. Their population, now between 20,000 and 25,000, could go down by one-third by the year 2050. This is because climate change is destroying their natural habitat. CITES members opposed the ban saying the threat to the habitat was not connected with trade. They also said that polar bear hunting was a regulated activity and that it was a source of livelihood to many people.
【題組】47 How did the CITES secretary-general feel about their own performance?
(A) Excited
(B) Proud
(C) Confused
(D) Disappointed

請回答第 47 題至第 50 題: More than 200,000 women currently serve in the U.S. military. They make up about 15 percent of all service members. Until recently, women were barred from officially serving in combat units. That all changed on January 24, 2013, when the Department of Defense ended the policy that excluded women from serving in direct-combat positions during an armed conflict. About 237,000 positions that have been closed to women could now be open to them under the new policy. Women would need to meet the same standards as men to get those jobs. Some positions may remain exceptions to the rule if a thorough analysis finds that women cannot meet the requirements for those jobs. President Barack Obama agrees that opening combat units to women will strengthen the military. Recent polls by CBS News and the Pew Research Center, for example, showed that two thirds (66 percent) of Americans support ending the ban. Dempsey and Panetta said the new policy reflects the realities of female soldiers’ changing roles over the past decade. More than 280,000 women have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, and more than 150 have died. They’ve patrolled dangerous areas as military police, served as machine gunners atop military vehicles, searched Iraqi and Afghan women for weapons, and more. New jobs will be opened gradually to women throughout the next few years. The entire process is expected to be complete by January 1, 2016.
【題組】49 What did the CBS poll show?
(A)Americans generally agree with the new policy.
(B)More than half of the U.S. armed forces will be female.
(C)President Obama disagrees with the new policy.
(D)Sixty-six percent of American women will join the army.

    Lagom is a new lifestyle that comes out of Sweden into our homes and our lives in the hope of helping us become healthy and live a sustainable life. The Swedish word is defined as “not too much, and not too little—just right.” This ethos of moderation has a great impact on Swedish people, who believe there should be a balance in everything they do, from working hours to how many slices of cake they eat, from how much sugar to take in one coffee to the portion sizes of dinner. Now people all over the world are interested in this living philosophy. Over the past six months, the BBC reports that search engine Google has seen a steady increase in the number of searches for the term Lagom and in the last three months, the word has been tweeted over 13,500 times.

    My Swedish friend told me “asking a Swede about lagom is like asking a fish what water is. It’s part of our way of life. There’s an inner voice saying, ‘Don’t be too talkative, but don’t be too quiet or shy. Don’t build the biggest house in town and buy luxurious stuff, but don’t be poor.’”

    Lagom has inspired several companies to manufacture skin collections, clothing, and furniture based on this notion of making life easier, more enjoyable and inexpensive. Swedish furniture store IKEA, for example, has created a project called “Live Lagom” to teach people how to reduce waste, save water, and live a healthier life. The famous H&M also sells Lagom around the world. Everybody can afford to buy their products, which are functional, stylish, and nice, but not too nice. Sam and Elliott Stocks, from England, published the lifestyle magazine Lagom. “Although neither of us are Swedes, we admire Swedish culture,” says Elliott. “The philosophy of Lagom is beautifully simple; it encourages everything in moderation.”


【題組】49 What does “asking a fish what water is” in the second paragraph imply?
(A)Swedes cannot live without lagom.
(B)Lagom has a negative influence on Swedes.
(C)A large part of Sweden is surrounded by the sea.
(D)Swedes don't spend money on unnecessary things.

       For hundreds of years, psychologist and ordinary people have never stopped debating this fascinating question. Some people think personality develops as a result of the environment—the combination of influences that we learn from, such as our families, our culture, our friends, and our education. The people who believe this theory believe that all babies are born without a personality and that it’s the environment that determines, or forms each child’s personality. This school of thought is called the “nurture school.”
      At the other end of the continuum we find people who believe that personality is determined by “nature,” or the characteristics we receive, or “inherit,” from our parents biologically, through their genes. These people believe that our personality is not determined by the environment, but rather by genetics, and that each baby is born with a personality. The nature-nurture controversy is very old. Experimental psychologists have tried to discover which of these two factors, genetics or the environment, is more important in forming our personality. However, it’s very difficult, if not impossible, to conduct research on real people with real lives. There’s just no way to put people in a laboratory and watch them develop. For this reason, there’s no scientific way to settle the nature-nurture controversy. Recently, however, most researchers have come to believe that both the environment and the genes —nurture and nature—work together and are both important.

【題組】49 For people who believe in nature, which of the following statements is true?
(A) Personality is determined by the environment.
(B) Personality is not determined by genetics.
(C) Each baby is born with a personality.
(D) Each baby is born without a personality.
