      In the early days of his life, Eddie Chapman was a petty criminal that lived in England. He ran away from the army, stole, and even formed his own gang. His crimes landed him in jail, where he had little hope of continuing his criminal assets. He didn’t stay in jail, however. When the Germans invaded England in the summer of 1940, Chapman, then 25, wrote them a letter stating his intentions to join the Germans as a spy to avoid troubles with the law in England.
      After some consideration, the Germans proceeded to break Chapman out of jail, trained him, and sent him on a mission to blow up a British airplane factory. But, it seemed that Chapman still had some love for his country. Upon parachuting from a plane en route to completing his mission, Chapman turned himself in to the local police, and managed to convince the British that he was still on their side.
      To fool the Germans, the British faked damage to the plane factory, and taught Chapman what to say when he went back to the Germans to appear successful. And Chapman did manage to appear successful. The Germans loved the double-agent so much that they awarded him with a war award, gave him vast sums of money, and even gave him promotion.
      The British, however, did not love Chapman quite as much. As Chapman was not secretive about his sources of income, the British saw him as a liability, and eventually dismissed the spy in 1944. Chapman then returned to his former life of crime, assuming that as he now held secrets to the British, he could probably bargain his way out of the arms of the law. The following years were spent avoiding punishment from the British law enforcement.
      Chapman eventually settled down in 1953 after he managed to release his war stories. He got married, had a daughter, and quietly lived the rest of his life as a businessman until his heart gave out in 1997.

【題組】50. Why did the British dismiss Chapman in 1944?
(A) Because he was a former criminal.
(B) Because he was trusted by the Germans.
(C) Because he was very helpful to the British.
(D) Because he was too open about what he should have kept silent.

四、閱讀測驗【請依照段落上下文意,選出最適當的答案】
        Feeling squeezed by rising prices and a higher cost of living? If you share such a sentiment, you should find plenty company. In fact, we are experiencing a tide of inflations, and the economic challenge is global in scale. Private investors are careful hoping to figure out the best way forward. Professionals and economists are analyzing data trying to predict whether a recession will follow. Going against conventional wisdom, the market dynamics in major countries have made it challenging for professionals to read the economic tea leaves. 
       With the current inflation showing no signs of slowing down, a decline in economic activity seems quite likely. That is, the rising costs of goods and services are negatively affecting consumers’ abilities to buy things. A decrease in consumer spending may shrink the market demand and slow economic growth, which possibly leads to fewer jobs and a decline in employment, signs of recession. However, in reality, a strong labor market, with more jobs created and more workers hired at higher wages, and no decrease in consumer spending have directed economists to make a more positive forecast on recession.
        Indeed, it is hard to interpret the conflicting signals in the ongoing foggy market conditions, a result of several complex factors. The current inflation was driven by a surge in demand of goods as countries gradually emerged from lockdowns. On the other hand, there had been a supply shortage caused by delays and disruptions in supply chain brought by COVID-19 pandemic. An increase in costs was further fueled by rising oil prices resulting from Russians’ invasion of Ukraine. Finally, humankind is confronted with yet another blow, global food insecurity, due to the pandemic, war in Ukraine, and the shocking climate change, which may cause inflation to skyrocket even higher.

【題組】32. Inferring from the context, what does “read the economic tea leaves” mean?
(A) To predict the future economy.
(B) To defeat an economic recession.
(C) To challenge the economic condition.
(D) To estimate how many people are affected by inflation.

第一篇:
       It is believed that dreams sometimes help us solve problems. It is also proposed that a critical aspect of dreaming lies in the processing of memories.
       Researcher Erin Wamsley designed a study in which participants explored a virtual maze, trying to learn its layout. Then she let them take a 90-minute nap. After their nap, she asked them whether they remembered dreaming about the task and then tested them on the maze again. The results were astonishing. Participants who had no memory of dreaming about the task took, on average, one and a half minutes longer to find their way out of the maze after their naps. However, those who reported that they had dreamed about it found their way out two and a half minutes faster than before. Erin then repeated the experiment by actually waking subjects to collect dream reports and identify those whose dreams were related to the task. She found that the latter showed almost 10 times more improvement after their naps compared with the participants who reported no related dreams.
       What exactly did they dream about? One participant reported: “I was thinking about the maze…, and then that led me to a cave trip I had a few years ago. The cave is maze-like.” Another recalled hearing the music played in the background while exploring the maze.
       Dreams like these seemed unlikely to help participants enhance their memories of the maze’s layout. And yet they were reported by the very participants who showed the greatest improvement. The sleeping brain was both enhancing its memory of the maze layout and creating related dreams. So, these dreams must be serving some other function. But what?
       Perhaps some strategy you learned while exploring a cave will help you the next time you try the maze task. Conversely, maybe something you learned from the maze task will help you next time you’re down in a cave. Your brain suddenly realizes, hey, exploring mazes and caves is really the same thing. It is a perfect example of the function of dreaming that researchers like Erin Wamsley propose: the extraction of new knowledge from existing information through the discovery of unexpected associations.

【題組】3. What did Erin Wamsley find out about dreaming and maze performance?
(A) There is a positive relation between the two.
(B) The length of the nap matters; the longer, the better.
(C) Performance after dreaming needs to be tested and retested.
(D) The average improvement is half minute quicker after dreaming.

第二篇:
       As employers adapt to remote work, the biggest question facing them is what to do with their physical offices. Even before the pandemic, many employers had begun questioning the wisdom of open-plan offices, which became popular in the past two decades. With employees seated in close quarters side by side and sharing kitchens and break areas, the offices enabled constant distractions. Once the pandemic hit, they also proved potentially lethal. Now, many companies are questioning the worth of offices at all. Tech companies, including Twitter, Facebook and Shopify, have said they will let many employees work from home permanently. Pinterest paid $89.5 million to cancel a new planned office space in San Francisco, saying more of its employees were going to work remotely in the future. But going fully remote carries its own set of problems.
       New employees and those in search of mentorship will have a hard time at a company if they’ve never met their colleagues in person; if people can’t chat often with colleagues, they trust them less, according to a study from business school professors at Columbia and Northwestern Universities. Remote work can also deal a blow to employees’ mental health; when Ctrip, a Chinese company, let more than 100 employees work from home for four days a week starting in 2010, they were happy for three months, but within nine months, about half wanted to return to the office, according to a study.
       That’s why some business owners are still investing in offices; they are just building a different kind of office. John Sweeden, who runs a small software firm in Oklahoma, broke ground last month on a new office building on a 25-acre plot. The complex is on land that costs a whole lot less than real estate in a crowded city center. Though it’s an office space, much of it will be “a place where zero work gets done,” he says. There will be a large salon for socializing; employees will be encouraged to spend hours there, talking about anything.
