Division does not always require that classification follow it. Your purpose in classifying, however, is to show how things in a group are similar. _____1_____ division and classification do work together. If you emptied the contents of a pocketbook onto a table, you would begin to divide those contents into groups. _____2_____ division, you would identify objects relating to finances, objects relating to personal care, objects relating to school work. Once you had the divisions clear, you would place objects in each category: money, checks, and credit cards in the first; cosmetics, a comb, and perfume in the second; pencils and a notebook in the third. When you divide and classify for writing, you have to keep several things in mind. You have to think carefully about the division of the topic so that you limit the _____3_____ from group to group. That is best achieved by creating categories different enough from each other so there is no blending. Since, you, the writer, have to establish the groups, you need to use a principle of classification that is sensible, accurate and complete. Do not force categories just _____4_____ making groups. You have to show how things in a group relate to each other, and this you must do without _____5_____ their differences and without making them stereotypes. If you stereotype objects in a group, you will be oversimplifying them, taking away their individuality, and forcing them to fit your categories.

A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. “Why?” asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. “I am a panda,” he says, at the door. “Look it up.” The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. “Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal. Native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.” So, punctuation really does matter, even if it is only occasionally a matter of life and death. In 2003 Lynne Truss published Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. The book became a runaway success in the U.K., hitting number one on the best-seller lists and prompting extraordinary headlines such as “Grammar Book Tops Bestseller List” (BBC News). This is a book for people who love punctuation and get upset when it is mishandled. The above passage is printed on its back cover.

請依下文回答第 42 題至第 46 題：
        Ever notice those little pockets on your jeans? They are pretty much too small to be useful. But in the old times,it had an important purpose: The pocket held a pocket watch. The ubiquity of the pockets can be traced back to thedesign for “waist overalls,” the original name for the blue jeans made by Levi Strauss & Co. They appeared on thedesign in the patent Strauss and J.W. Davis received for “Improvement in Fastening Pocket Openings,” way back onMay 20, 1873, and were first put into mass use in 1890 with the “Lot 501” jeans, the model for Levi’s 501 jeans today.
       “The watch pocket was a feature of our first waist overalls,” Tracey Panek, the in-house historian at LeviStrauss & Co., told INSIDER in an email. “The oldest pair of waist overalls in the Levi Strauss & Co. Archives[from 1879] includes the watch pocket.” Because the small pocket was meant to hold pocket watches, you won’tusually find it on suit pants. Suit jackets already have pocket watches, which makes one on the pants superfluous.Levi Strauss himself, for example, kept a pocket watch in the vest of his business suit, according to Panek. Pantswith the tiny pocket are called “five-pocket pants,” but the tiny pocket isn’t actually the fifth one. The fifth pocketis actually on the back-left, added to Levi’s 501 jeans in 1901. Pretty much no one today carries around a pocketwatch. People tend to check the time on their phones or wristwatches. Panek told INSIDER that the small pocketsare kept on Levi’s jeans today to maintain the integrity of the original design. 
        Today, there isn’t much you can do with the tiny pocket. Some people suggest using them to keep coins orkeys, but they tend to dig into your hip. Others recommend them for matches, condoms, and tickets, but those aredifficult to extract if your fingers aren’t similarly tiny. The pockets are somewhat helpful for carrying small piecesof hand jewelry for a few moments — like if you plan to propose to your significant other, or if someone else iswashing his hands and wants you to hold on to his rings — but that’s pretty much it. For the most part, it’s best toignore them and think about the pockets as a piece of history that’s still with us.

【題組】 43 According to the passage, where wouldn’t people put their watches?
(A) In a vest.
(B) In a suit jacket.
(C) In five-pocket pants.
(D) In suit trousers.
