Yet on Dec 14, 2012, she, along with 19 other children and six adults, was killed. A man named by the police as Adam Lanza, aged 20, shot and killed his own mother on the morning of that day. Afterwards, he drove her car to Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, US, and shot and killed 20 children and six women. Finally, he killed himself. The police still do not know why he did that. US President Barack Obama openly cried as he spoke about the killing. He told the parents of the children that “You are not alone in your grief (悲痛). All across this land of yours we have cried with you.” When this kind of shooting has happened recently, people have had special ways of showing their grief. They have lit candles, and left flowers by the scene of the tragedy (悲劇). This is very much the case again. Those who died in Newtown were very young children aged from 5 to10.

Cleaning: The main stairs are cleaned twice a week by the Association (委員會). Do not leave anything on the stairs or in the hallways. Lights: The main lights are on a timer and they stay on for five minutes when you press them. If the lights do not work contact us, please. Noise: Loud music, etc. can disturb other people and the Association will contact you if you make too much noise. Safety: Make sure the main outside door is always locked and do not let strangers come into the main building. Parking: Each flat has a car parking space. They are numbered and are at the back of the building. Do not use another resident’s space. Problems: If you have any problem or question, call the Association at 038098 anytime. ( ) 61.

Do you know what they are used for? They are barcodes (條形碼) used in most products. If you go to a supermarket, you can see almost every product with a barcode on it. Barcodes contain (包括) information about the products, such as names and production date. It’s an easy and convenient way to keep track of the products. Just scan (掃描) the bars with a barcode reader and everything is clear. The first use of a barcode in a supermarket checkout system was on a pack of American Wrigley Company chewing gum in 1974. Beyond supermarkets, barcodes are needed everywhere: for renting cars, for luggage checks on a plane, for parcels(包裹) you send. Life will be rather hard without barcodes. Most things would get lost in the post. Barcodes change as well. Barcodes in the past were 1-D (one-dimensional), but now there are 2-D (二維碼), such as QR (正方形點狀碼) has been used on Chinese train tickets. People can enter stadiums, cinemas and theaters by holding certain types of barcodes. If you find these barcode things boring, a barcode building might be more up your street.

VII. 任務型閱讀 (共10小題； 每小題2分，滿分20分) (A) On and off screen, Huang Bo is an ordinary (普通的) person, short and plain-looking. However, this hasn’t stopped him from winning over fans and the box office. Lost in Thailand《泰囧》, starring Huang Bo, Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, has become the most popular film of the season. Huang became famous as a stupid thief in the 2006 film Crazy Stone. Since then, the 38-year-old man has impressed people with his performance of different everymen: a farmer, a failed cyclist, a salesman and a migrant worker. Among them, his performance in the 2009 film Cow won Huang a Golden Horse for best actor. How is he able to express the pains and joys of ordinary people so well? Huang says it is because he himself used to be one of them. Huang dreamed of becoming an actor at a young age. Before he got the chance, Huang had tried almost every possible job. He sang at bars in Guangzhou. He formed a dancing band in Beijing. There were highs and lows, of course. But Huang said later “All the people I met and all the difficulties I overcame are treasure (珍貴) experiences for acting.” 根據上面短文的內容回答問題。 25. How does Huang Bo look? __________________________________________________________________ 26. Has Lost in Thailand become the most popular film of the season? __________________________________________________________________ 27. What did the film Cow win Huang? __________________________________________________________________ 28. Why can Huang express the pains and joys of ordinary people so well? __________________________________________________________________ 29. What does Huang think of all the difficulties he overcame? __________________________________________________________________ (B) From goldfish to sharks, fish of all sizes have lived on Earth for hundreds of millions of years. But do they ever feel thirsty? The answer is yes, at least some of the fish do. But there is a big difference between fish in seawater and fresh water. Bony fish (硬骨魚) have a salt concentration (含鹽量) in their bodies. For bony fish in seawater, their concentration is lower than the water they live in. Through osmosis (滲透作用), these fish will lose lots of water into the sea. To make up (彌補) the loss, they drink lots of water, so it would be easy to say they become thirsty. Although drinking salt water is not a good idea for humans, fish can pass the salt they are drinking through their gills (鰓). But sharks are an exception (例外). Sharks can make their blood as concentrated (濃縮的) as the water around them. They do this by building up urea (尿素) in their blood, so they may not be very thirsty. But highly concentrated blood also has a problem. It means sharks won’t do very well in fresh water — water will rush into the shark by osmosis and it might even explode (爆炸)! Freshwater fish are not likely to become thirsty. Because they live in a less salty environment, they have another problem: water goes inwards and dilutes (沖淡) their blood. The freshwater fish therefore need to pass useless water, so we can see that salt water fish get thirsty and drink, while freshwater fish don’t drink but pee (小便) a lot. 根據上面短文的內容完成下列各句。 30. Some of the fish will feel __________________, but the f
