   Many people confuse education and training, but they are not the same thing. Education is knowledge-based and is defined as a body of academic knowledge that is most often learned in a classroom setting. Training is coaching to become proficient in particular behaviors or actions. Sometimes the two are confused because many training experiences, like a police academy, often involve many hours of classroom instruction. Such institutions combine elements of education and training, but the differences between the two remain. Knowledge is theoretical. Using a law enforcement example, you can study the laws of arrest without ever having to arrest anyone, but you need to be trained in handcuffing techniques if you will be expected to actually take someone into custody. Similarly, you can study laws and court cases pertaining to deadly physical force without ever having to fire a weapon. Training, on the other hand, is skills-based. It covers what you need to do, as much as what you need to know, in order to perform a task or group of tasks. Learning when or why is not the same as learning how.
【題組】16. The best title for this passage would be
(A) When or Why Is Not the Same As How.
(B) Education versus Training.
(C) The Benefits of Studying Case Law.
(D) The Importance of Handcuffing Techniques.

Qs 16-20: Answer the questions on the basis of the following paragraph.
       Pickpockets operate most effectively when there are prospective victims in either heavily congested areas or in lonely places. In heavily populated areas, the large number of people around them covers the activities of these thieves. In lonely spots, they have the advantage of working unobserved. The main factor in the pickpocket's success is the selection of the right victim. A pickpocket's victim must, at the time of the crime, be inattentive, distracted, or unconscious. If any of these conditions exist, and if the pickpocket is skilled in his operations, the stage is set for a successful larceny. With the coming of big events, such as large concerts or marketing campaigns, the crowds move towards these activities and so do most of the pickpockets. However, some pickpockets will remain in certain areas all year around. They will concentrate on theater districts, bus and railroad terminals, hotels, or large shopping centers. A complete knowledge of the methods of this type of criminal and the ability to recognize them come only from long years of experience in performing patient surveillance and trailing of them. This knowledge is essential for the effective control and apprehension of this type of thief.

【題組】18.According to the above paragraph, it would be MOST correct to conclude that police officers who are successful in apprehending pickpockets
(A) are generally those who have had lengthy experience in recognizing all types of criminals.
(B) must, by intuition, be able to recognize potential right victims.
(C) must be able to predict the future actions of pickpockets using psychic abilities.
(D) must have acquired specific knowledge and skills in this field.

請依下文回答第 14 題至第 17 題: During my high school years my best friend was Susan Miller, a girl who had lived down the street from me all her life. We knew each other well and had many interests in common. One way in which we were different, however, was in our shopping habits. When I shopped, I always knew what I wanted, got it quickly, and left. For Susan, shopping was a game. She spent all day at it: examining, comparing, and finally, if conditions were right, buying. All too often I have spent hours waiting for her to make up her mind. In fact, my longest “shopathon” was on a Christmas Eve when Susan and I went to pick up a few last-minute gifts. She wanted a fit for her father, and I had to get something for my youngest sister, Sara. We started at 9:00 A.M., and by 10:15 I had bought Sara her gift, a toy Dalmatian. Then I just trudged around the mall after Susan. By one o’clock she still had not made a purchase, and the mall was becoming human gridlock. Finally feeling some compassion, Susan bought herself and me each a slice of pizza. We had to eat standing up; the tables were all filled. Then, walking and walking through endless stores, we continued shopping. She examined shirts, scarves, ties, knickknacks. Her response to every possibility was negative: her father had it, he wouldn’t like it, this was too expensive, and that was too cheap. Nothing seemed right for Susan’s father. Finally, fifteen minutes before the mall was scheduled to close, she came out of a store in triumph. “I got it!”she said. I looked up from where I was sitting on a bench, rubbing my swollen feet. “What?” I asked weakly. She held up a piece of paper. “A gift certificate!”she exclaimed. “With this my father can get whatever he wants.”
【題組】14 According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
(A) The author agrees that slow-paced shopping can be very rewarding.
(B) Though their shopping habits were different, the author enjoyed shopping with Susan.
(C) The author and Susan shared many interests except shopping habits.
(D) Finally Susan bought her father a shirt.

To Kill a Mockingbird was published in 1960 and became an instant international bestseller. In its first year, it sold half a million copies and was translated into 10 languages.

The setting and several of the characters are drawn from real life. Finch was the maiden name of Lee’s mother, and the character of Dill was drawn from Capote, Lee’s childhood friend. The trial itself has parallels to the infamous “Scottsboro Trial,” in which the charge was rape. In both cases, the defendants were African-American men and their accusers, white women.

  American women traditionally are expected to be affectionate, passive, conforming, sensitive, intuitive, and dependent—“sugar and spice and everything nice.” They are supposed to be concerned primarily with domestic life, to be nurturing, to care for babies and young children, to fuss over their personal appearance, and to be self-sacrificing for their family. They should not appear to be ambitious, aggressive, competitive, or more intelligent than men. They should be ignorant about and uninterested in sports, economics, and politics. Also, they are not supposed to initiate relationships with men but are expected to be tender, feminine, emotional, and appreciative when in those relationships. 
  There are also a number of traditional sex-role expectations for males in our society: a male is expected to be tough, fearless, logical, self-reliant, independent, and aggressive. He should have definite opinions on the major issues of the day and make authoritative decisions at work and at home. He is expected to be strong, a sturdy oak, and never to be depressed, vulnerable, or anxious. He is not supposed to be a “sissy,” to cry or openly display emotions that suggest vulnerability.

【題組】40 What does the phrase “sugar and spice and everything nice” imply?
(A) Women should be kind.
(B) Women should be sexy.
(C) Women should work hard.
(D) Women should learn to cook.
