請依下文回答第 36 題至第 39 題 The American computer company IBM says it has developed a microprocessor – a computer chip – that works much like the human brain. IBM calls the chip True North. It is the 36 of a postage stamp. The chip has 5.4 billion tiny parts that work like the human brain’s neurons and synapses. Neurons and synapses are the cells and electric forces that carry messages 37 the brain. True North has 1 million neurons and 256 million synapses. The human brain has 100 billion neurons and up to 150 trillion synapses. IBM says it can program the new chip to understand difficult problems and then solve them as humans would. The company says the True North chip could be used as a brain for 38 robots. It can also be used for controlling new kinds of wheel chairs or for recording conversations 39 several people and then making a printed record of those conversations. True North is still being tested. But IBM says it could be available for public use in two to three years. The chip is just one example of machines becoming more and more like humans. This field of study is called artificial intelligence, or AI. Some experts believe computers will someday become more intelligent than humans.

Research shows that smiling has many positive effects on our health. This might explain why the people in the studies with bigger smiles had longer lives. 40 It also lowers blood pressure. Smiling can affect the brain in the same way as exercise. For example, it increases the amount of feel-good hormones such as serotonin and endorphins. 41 Furthermore, recent brain research shows that just the act of smiling can actually make us happier. 42 But then, our smiles send a message back to the brain that makes us feel even happier. Smiling is clearly good for us. 43 It is easy to see that smiling is much more than just an expression of happiness. It’s a powerful tool for maintaining both emotional and physical health.

Some 66m years ago Earth was hit by a space rock reckoned to have been 10km across. The resulting chaos caused the extinction of dinosaurs and many other species, opening the way for the age of mammals－and ultimately humans. It also left a big hole in what is now southern Mexico. That hole is one of only three known of similar dimensions (the other two are Vredefort in South Africa and Sudbury in Canada). And this is odd. For, during the billions of years that Earth has had a solid crust, many more than three big asteroids might have been expected to have hit it.

That thought led Brandon Johnson of the MIT and Timothy Bowling of Purdue University in Indiana, to wonder how many other craters have vanished, either by erosion or by being swallowed into Earth’s interior as its crust moves around, and therefore whether it is likely that some have survived and been overlooked. They have just published their analysis in Geology.

Earth’s crust formed more than 4 billion years ago, but the oldest surviving blocks of it large enough to harbor craters date back only 3.5 billion years. What is known of the sizes and orbits of modern asteroids suggests that, if things have not changed over the aeons, about 14 big asteroids (defined as having a diameter of more than 7.4km, which would cause a crater at least 85km in diameter) should hit Earth every billion years. That means 49, give or take seven, over the past 3.5 billion years. Such impacts may have been more common in the past, when more big asteroids were around. Allowing for this, Earth would have been hit by 113, give or take 11, of them. Either way, a lot of craters are missing.

【題組】44 How large is the crater created in southern Mexico by the asteroid 66m years ago?
(A)10km across in diameter.
(B)85km in diameter.
(C)7.4km in diameter.
(D)Not mentioned in the article.

15(C).

【題組】45 Over the past 3.5 billion years, roughly how many asteroids may have hit Earth?
(A)14
(B) 85
(C) 113
(D) 11

16(B).

【題組】46 How many other craters of a dimension similar to the one in southern Mexico are known to people?
(A)3
(B) 2
(C) 1
(D)4

17(D).

【題組】47 What can we infer about the missing craters?

(A)They never left any impact on Earth.

(B)They have not been completely eroded.

(C)They were far more than the surviving ones.

(D)They were hit by more than one asteroid.

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.
【題組】48 According to the passage, what was the relationship between Mabel Loomis Todd and Emily Dickinson?

(A)They are mother and daughter.

(B) They are sisters.

(C)They are a lesbian couple.

(D) It is not clearly mentioned.
