NOTICE
Messages and a Price List

Mom: Amy, are you still at school? Can you stop at Green Market on your way home? They are having a big sale this weekend.

Amy: Sure. What do you need?

Mom: Two boxes of apples and one pack of chicken, because I want to make chicken soup for dinner tonight. Here is the price list.

GREEN MARKET WEEKEND SALE
Apples: $120 a box (buy two, get one free)
Chicken: $90 a pack
Ice cream: $60 a box
Cookies and candy: 5 bags for $100

Amy: Can I get some ice cream, too? It is so hot today.

Mom: OK, but only one box, because your father is trying to eat less sugar. And please be fast.

Amy: No problem. I will be home before six.

全文中譯

媽媽:艾美,你還在學校嗎?回家路上可以順便去綠色市場嗎?他們這個週末大特價。

艾美:當然。你需要什麼?

媽媽:兩盒蘋果和一包雞肉,因為我今晚想煮雞湯當晚餐。這是他們的價目表。

綠色市場週末特價
蘋果:一盒 120 元(買二送一)
雞肉:一包 90 元
冰淇淋:一盒 60 元
餅乾和糖果:5 包 100 元

艾美:我也可以買一些冰淇淋嗎?今天好熱。

媽媽:好,但只能一盒,因為你爸爸正在努力少吃糖。還有請快一點。

艾美:沒問題。我六點前會到家。

Questions 19–21
19What is the purpose of Mom's messages?
ATo tell her daughter to come home early
BTo ask her daughter to buy some ice cream
CTo ask her daughter what she wants for dinner
DTo ask her daughter to do some shopping
✔ 正確答案:(D) To ask her daughter to do some shopping
中譯媽媽傳這些訊息的目的是什麼?
解析媽媽問艾美能否順路去市場,並列出要買的東西和價目表,目的是請女兒幫忙買東西。想買冰淇淋的是艾美,不是媽媽;早點回家是艾美自己說的;媽媽也沒有問艾美晚餐想吃什麼(她已決定煮雞湯)。
20How much will Amy pay if she buys everything Mom asks for and one box of ice cream?
A$450
B$510
C$390
D$330
✔ 正確答案:(C) $390
中譯如果艾美買齊媽媽要的東西,再加一盒冰淇淋,她要付多少錢?
解析兩盒蘋果 120×2=240 元(第三盒是送的,不用付錢),雞肉一包 90 元,冰淇淋一盒 60 元,共 240+90+60=390 元。若把送的第三盒也算錢會得 510 元;忘了冰淇淋是 330 元;算三盒又忘了冰淇淋是 450 元。
21How many boxes of apples will Amy probably bring home?
ATwo
BThree
CFive
DOne
✔ 正確答案:(B) Three
中譯艾美可能會帶幾盒蘋果回家?
解析媽媽要兩盒蘋果,而價目表寫「買二送一」,所以艾美可能會帶三盒蘋果回家。這是根據表格推論,不是只看媽媽說的「兩盒」。
全文中譯

親愛的肯:

謝謝你上一封信。下週六在我家附近的鎮廣場會有一場美食節,從早上十點開始到下午五點結束。超過四十家攤位會賣牛肉湯、蒸肉包,還有用新鮮牛奶做的冰淇淋,有些攤位還會免費送食物給小孩。

我媽媽會在美食節上做她有名的雞肉。老實說,我覺得那是全鎮最好吃的雞肉。很多年前我奶奶教她怎麼做,所以這道菜對我們家來說非常珍貴。

搭火車到東站,我十一點會在那裡等你。請在星期三前回信,這樣我才知道要準備多少食物。

彼得 敬上

Questions 22–24
22What is the purpose of Peter's email?
ATo ask Ken to work at a food shop
BTo thank Ken for a gift
CTo invite Ken to an event in his town
DTo tell Ken how to cook chicken
✔ 正確答案:(C) To invite Ken to an event in his town
中譯彼得寫這封信的目的是什麼?
解析整封信介紹美食節的時間、地點、內容,並告訴肯怎麼搭車、在哪裡碰面,還請他回信好準備食物,目的是邀請肯來參加。信一開頭只是謝謝來信,不是謝禮物;沒有教做雞肉,也沒有請肯去攤位工作。
23Where will the festival be held?
AIn a big shop in the city
BAt a farm by the river
CInside East Station
DIn an open place close to Peter's house
✔ 正確答案:(D) In an open place close to Peter's house
中譯美食節在哪裡舉行?
解析信中說 food festival 在 the town square near my home,也就是彼得家附近的廣場(空曠的地方)。East Station 是兩人碰面的地點,不是活動地點,最容易誤選;農場、城市大商店都沒提到。
24What do we learn about Peter's mother's chicken?
AShe will give it free to children at the festival.
BShe sells it at her shop every day.
CShe learned to make it from an older family member.
DShe thinks it is not as good as beef soup.
✔ 正確答案:(C) She learned to make it from an older family member.
中譯關於彼得媽媽做的雞肉,我們知道什麼?
解析信中說奶奶很多年前教她做這道菜,換句話說就是「向家中長輩學的」。免費送食物給小孩的是「有些攤位」,沒說是媽媽的雞肉;文中沒說她天天在店裡賣,也沒和牛肉湯比較。
ARTICLE
Less Sugar, Better Health

Many students drink sweet tea and eat candy every day. Sweet food can stop your hunger for a short time, but you will feel hungry again very soon, because it gives your body little else. Too much sugar can make people fat, and it is also bad for the heart and the teeth. Doctors say that people who eat too much sugar and fat for many years may even meet an early death.

However, none of the doctors asks us to give up all sweet food; they only ask us to eat less of it. Fruit is a much better choice than candy, because although it is sweet, it also has water and many other good things in it.

Small changes, like drinking water with lunch, can improve our health in a big way.

全文中譯

許多學生每天喝含糖茶飲、吃糖果。甜食能讓你短暫不餓,但因為它對身體幾乎沒有其他幫助,你很快又會覺得餓。太多糖會讓人變胖,對心臟和牙齒也不好。醫生說,多年吃太多糖和油脂的人甚至可能會早死。

不過,沒有一位醫生要我們完全放棄甜食,他們只是要我們少吃一點。水果是比糖果好得多的選擇,因為水果雖然是甜的,卻也含有水分和許多其他好東西。

小小的改變,像是午餐時喝水,就能大大改善我們的健康。

Questions 25–27
25What is the main idea of the article?
AStudents in Taiwan should never eat candy.
BDoctors do not care what students eat.
CEating less sugar is a simple way to stay healthy.
DFruit has more sugar than sweet tea.
✔ 正確答案:(C) Eating less sugar is a simple way to stay healthy.
中譯這篇文章的主旨是什麼?
解析文章先說太多糖的壞處,再說醫生只要我們少吃,最後強調小改變能改善健康,主旨是「少吃糖是保持健康的簡單方法」。文章明說不必完全不吃糖;沒有比較水果和茶的含糖量;醫生其實很關心。
26Which is NOT a problem of too much sugar, according to the article?
AIt can make people heavy.
BIt makes people sleep badly.
CIt can hurt the heart.
DIt is bad for the teeth.
✔ 正確答案:(B) It makes people sleep badly.
中譯根據文章,下列何者「不是」吃太多糖的問題?
解析文中提到太多糖會讓人變胖、傷心臟、傷牙齒,但沒有提到會讓人睡不好,所以答案是「讓人睡不好」。
27What does the writer suggest?
AGive up all sweet food at once.
BDrink sweet tea only in the morning.
CPick fruit when you want a snack.
DSee a doctor every week.
✔ 正確答案:(C) Pick fruit when you want a snack.
中譯作者建議什麼?
解析作者說水果是比糖果好的選擇,並建議午餐喝水,所以建議是「想吃點心時選水果」。文中特別說醫生沒有要我們放棄所有甜食,只要少吃,所以「馬上戒掉所有甜食」是陷阱;也沒叫人早上才喝甜茶或每週看醫生。
CHART
Snacks in Class 305

Last month, the teachers of Class 305 asked all 45 students one question: "What snack do you usually bring to school?" Each student could choose only one answer, and the results are shown in the chart below.

SnackBoysGirls
Fruit913
Cookies76
Candy52
Ice cream21

The class teacher, Miss Chen, was happy that fruit was the top answer, because she has talked about healthy snacks many times this year. Still, she plans to talk to the class about candy, because some of the students who chose it bring a bag to school every day. She will also invite a doctor, who is an old friend of hers, to explain how sugar hurts the teeth. Next year, the class will answer the same question again to see if anything has changed.

全文中譯

上個月,305 班的老師問全班 45 位學生一個問題:「你通常帶什麼點心到學校?」每位學生只能選一個答案,結果列在下表。

點心男生女生
水果913
餅乾76
糖果52
冰淇淋21

班導陳老師很高興水果是最多人的答案,因為她今年已經談過很多次健康點心。不過,她打算和全班談談糖果的事,因為選糖果的學生中有些人每天都帶一包到學校。她也會邀請一位老朋友──一位醫生──來說明糖如何傷害牙齒。明年全班會再回答同一個問題,看看有沒有改變。

Questions 28–30
28How many students in Class 305 chose cookies?
A13
B7
C6
D22
✔ 正確答案:(A) 13
中譯305 班共有幾位學生選餅乾?
解析選餅乾的男生 7 人、女生 6 人,共 7+6=13 人。只看男生或女生會得 7 或 6;22 是選水果的總人數。
29What can we learn from the chart?
ABoys and girls chose cookies in the same numbers.
BCandy was the top answer among the boys.
CMore girls than boys chose fruit.
DNone of the girls chose ice cream.
✔ 正確答案:(C) More girls than boys chose fruit.
中譯從表格可以知道什麼?
解析選水果的女生 13 人、男生 9 人,女生較多。男生最多人選的是水果不是糖果;有 1 位女生選冰淇淋;餅乾男生 7、女生 6,人數不同。
30Why will the class answer the same question next year?
ATo sell more fruit at school
BTo give a prize to the best student
CTo ask the students to stop eating cookies
DTo find out if students will choose different snacks
✔ 正確答案:(D) To find out if students will choose different snacks
中譯全班明年為什麼要再回答同一個問題?
解析文末說明年再問同一題是「看看有沒有改變」,也就是想知道學生選的點心會不會不同。請醫生來是為了講糖對牙齒的害處,不是明年再問的原因;文中沒提頒獎、賣水果或禁止吃餅乾。
