請依下文回答第 9 題至第 12 題 In 1993, an official with the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) called a few employees into her office and asked the question: what was the CDCP doing about the risk that animal-to-people transplants might introduce new germs into the human population? “My first reaction was—nothing,” recalled Louisa Chapman, an expert on animal viruses that infect humans. “Transplants from animals were so rare, and recipients lived so briefly that it didn’t seem a threat.” But as she looked into the situation, she changed her mind. Interest in xenotransplants was heating up. Animals could not only ease the shortage of kidneys, hearts, and livers for transplantation, but also supply brain tissues for treating diseases like Parkinson’s. These days, drug and biotech companies have poured more than $100 million into xenotransplant research. Scientists have reported progress in overcoming rejection of animal organs. But the concern Chapman heard in that 1993 meeting has not gone away: would xenotransplants give new germs a sneaky entrée into the human population?
【題組】10 What is Louisa Chapman concerned with?
(A) The shortage of kidneys, hearts, and livers
(B) Treatment of diseases like Parkinson’s
(C) Introduction of new germs into the human population
(D) The frequency and duration of xenotrasplants

請依下文回答第 22 題至第 25 題 There are few places, not only in Italy, but in the whole world, that have as much evocative and suggestive power as the Appian Way in Rome. The walls along the Appian Way, full of remarkable traces of ancient history, are still the same as they were two thousand years ago, but they will be submerged beneath a flood of houses, disappearing into history, simply because of a frenzy of wild speculation on lands. There are laws that protect the artistic and historic heritage, as well as the landscape. But laws are inert and impotent if there is a lack of real will to ensure that they are respected. In this case, as in a hundred others, the fault cannot be attributed to administrative inertia; it lies much higher up, at the level of the government officials and, at a much higher level, in the ruling class. It is surely symptomatic that when the alarm was sounded concerning the imminent destruction of the Appian Way, not a single organ of the mighty middle-class press chose to champion the cause, and nobody chose to react. The whole of our incomparable artistic and cultural heritage is threatened with destruction; in the villas of the Veneto, rooms covered with precious wall paintings are being turned into stables; the Italian cities that are celebrated throughout the world as masterpieces of beauty and as the witnesses of first-rate culture are rapidly being transformed into something extremely vulgar.
【題組】25 Which of the following is accommodated in the renovated historical houses in the villas of the Veneto?
(A) Animals
(B) Officials
(C) Soldiers
(D) Tourists

請依下文回答第 48 題至第 50 題 In 1881 a young woman named Mabel Loomis Todd wrote her parents about “the character of Amherst…a lady whom the people call the ‘Myth’: she has not been outside of her own house in fifteen years…. She dresses wholly in white, and her mind is said to be perfectly wonderful.” So began the legend of Emily Dickinson, one of the greatest poets of the nineteenth century, who was for years portrayed by biographers and critics as an eccentric recluse, a “little home-keeping person,”a mad spinster who had been disappointed in love. For, four years after this New England woman in white died in 1886, the same Mabel Loomis Todd brought out a volume containing selections from 1,776 strange and passionate poems, which had been found, neatly sewed into booklets, in her bureau drawers, and the imagination of the pubic was immediately seized by the mysterious discrepancy between what seemed to be the isolation of Dickinson’s life and the intensity of her art. To many, indeed, the “case” of Emily Dickinson－only eight of whose poems had been published in her lifetime－seemed to offer a crucial model for the situation of the woman poet. Eccentricity, reclusiveness, and most of all, thwarted romance－these appeared to be the conditions that might drive a woman to what was, for women, the perversity of writing verses.

(A)1886
