第二部分 閱讀理解（共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分）

A

“Women who fail to get enough shut—eye each night risk gaining（增加）weight，” a Cleveland—based researcher reported.

In a long—term study of middle—aged women， those who slept 5 hours or less each night were 32 percent more likely to gain an important amount of weight （adding 33 pounds or more） and 15 percent more likely to become fat during 16 years of follow—up than women who slept 7 hours each night.

“This level of weight gaining—15 kg， or 33 pounds—is very clinically（臨床）important in terms of risk of diabetes （糖尿?。゛nd heart disease，” Dr Sanjay Patel of Case Western Reserve University said.

Women who slept 6 hours nightly were 12 percent more likely to experience major weight gain and 6 percent more likely to become fat compared with those who slept 7 hours each night.

The 68，183 women in the study provided information in 1986 on their typical night’s sleep and reported their weight every 2 years for 16 years.

Women who said they slept 5 hours or less each night， on average， weighed 5.4 pounds more at the beginning of the study than those sleeping 7 hours.

After removing the influence of age and weight at the beginning of the study， women who slept 5 hours or less each night gained about 2.3 pounds more during follow—up than those who slept 7 hours nightly. Women who got 6 hours of shut—eye each night gained 1.5 pounds more than those who slept 7 hours nightly.

The researchers analyzed the diets and physical activity levels of the women， but failed to find any differences that could explain why women who slept less weighed more. “We actually found that women who slept less， ate less，” Patel said.

“In terms of exercise， we saw a small difference in that women who slept less exercised slightly less than women who slept more but it didn’t explain the results of our findings，” Patel said.

“All in all， it seems that diet and exercise are not related to the weight gain in women who sleep less，” Patel concluded.

“It’s possible that sleeping less may affect changes in a person’s basal metabolic rate（基礎(chǔ)代謝率）—the number of calories burns when at rest，” Patel said.

Another possible contributor to weight regulation that comes to light recently is called “non—exercise related burning”， which refers to a natural activity such as restless or standing instead of sitting. “It may be，” Patel said， “that if people who sleep less， also move around or are ‘restless’.”

Jack Benny was one of the most famous names in show business. As a child， Benny learned to play the violin. After finishing school， he joined the Navy. He continued using his violin to perform for sailors. In one show he was chosen more for his funny jokes than for his skill with the violin. That experience made him believe that his future job was a comedian（喜劇演員）.

Benny developed a show personality that had all the qualities people disliked. He was known for being too stingy—he refused to spend any money unless forced to do so. On his shows Benny often spoke of his appearance， especially his baby blue eyes. As he grew older， he always claimed to be 39 years old. Benny rarely made jokes that hurt other people. Instead， he would let the other actors on the show tell jokes about him.

In real life， he was very giving and he was a person people liked having as their employer. Benny entered the new media of television in 1950. Five years later， he dropped his radio program to spend more time developing his television show. At first his appearances on television were rare. By 1960 Benny Show had already been a weekly television program. It continued until 1965. Benny appeared in about twenty films during his life and a few became popular. In 1963 Benny returned to Broadway for the first time since 1931.

Benny received many awards（獎）during his lifetime. Perhaps the honor that pleased him most was that his hometown of Waukeegan named a school for him. This was a special honor for a man who had never finished high school.

Benny continued to perform. He died of cancer in 1974. At his funeral his friend Bob Hope said， “Jack Benny was stingy to the end. He gave us only eighty years.”

For five—year—old Edward Wright， the donkeys（驢子）he visits each week aren’t only lovable animals to pet and ride， they are also teaching him to speak.

Edward picked up selective mutism（選擇性緘默癥）when he was aged two. Selective mutes have their own rules of where and who they will and won’t speak to. “He’d chat at home， but if we were in a supermarket or at the doctor’s he wouldn’t say a word，” said Edward’s mum. “At kindergarten he’d point to pictures of what he wanted to do each day rather than telling the workers. I wasn’t too anxious at first when he didn’t seem to babble away like his brother and sister did. He let our older children do most of the talking for him， so we didn’t notice at first.” But the health visitor was more worried and suggested a hearing test. It was discovered Edward had a problem which can lead to damaged hearing. Edward had the operation successfully when he was three. Doctors believed his speech would quickly improve but it didn’t.

A special needs adviser suggested he might gain from regular visits to EST， a donkey riding treatment centre. Edward went there weekly last September. At first he wouldn’t talk to the workers or children there. Gradually he became more confident. After a few weeks he began whispering orders into the donkeys’ ears. Later he would say instructions out aloud to stop and start them while riding. At school he now talks to friends in the playground and he answers teachers when they ask questions.

The manager of the EST donkey centre， Cathryn Williams， has watched Edward’s progress over the months. “Besides bringing some enjoyment into their lives， it really helps the overall development of children with special needs or disabilities，” she said. “With Edward it’s about building his confidence.”

第三部分 寫作（共四節(jié)，滿分55分）

第一節(jié) 閱讀表達（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）

An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling a flood of e—mails before most of us had， even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was vital enough， his lack of response would ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn’t important enough to have his private number， the communication couldn’t be that important. My friend is now even more senior in the same company， so the strategy must work.

Almost every week now， there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by the bother of e—mail. If this is the case， it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it.

__________ . Firstly， you junk anything with an exclamation mark on a string of capital letters， or from any address you don’t recognize or feel confident about.

Secondly， e—mails don’t all have to be answered. Because e—mailing is so easy， there’s a tendency for correspondence to carry on for ever， but it is permissible to stop an endless discussion or to accept a point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.

Thirdly， a reply e—mail doesn’t have to be the same length as the original. We all have e—mail pals who send long， chatty e—mails， which are nice to receive， but who then expect an equally long reply. The charm of e—mail can consist in the simple， incomplete sentence， totally regardless of the format of the letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e—mail with a brief reply.

46. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one？

The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e—mails.
