（共15小題，每小題2分，滿分30分）

Elephants are trained, at an early age, not to escape. One leg of a baby elephant is tied with a rope to a wooden post planted in the ground. The rope limits the baby elephant to an area determined by the length of the rope. At first the baby elephant tries to break free from the rope, but the rope is too strong. Soon the elephant learns that he cannot break the rope in any case. This space defined by the rope becomes the elephant's comfort zone.

As the elephant grows up it could easily break the rope, but it does not even try because it was conditioned as a baby to think that it still could not break free. As a result, the large elephant remains tied and stays in a small space.

This metaphor(隱喻) can be used to describe what happens to human beings as we become trapped in a comfort zone. Just as the elephant's space determines what it can do, our comfort zone determines what we are able to achieve. Fortunately, humans are born with the ability to make conscious choices. The elephant doesn't try to break the rope free while we can easily leave our comfort zone.

In order to expand our potential and succeed in life, we must expand our comfort zone into unfamiliar fields. You will never realize what you are truly able to achieve if you remain in your comfort zone.

1. The area where the baby elephant can move around is decided by ________.

A. the space covered by the elephant

B. the length of the rope

C. the elephant’s comfort zone

D. the wooden post planted in the ground

2.The large elephant does not try to break the rope, because ________.

A. the rope is too strong

B. a wooden post is planted in the ground

C. the elephant likes the small space

D. the elephant thinks it still could not break free

3. What can be the best title for the text?

A. How to train elephants

B. A cautious elephant

C. A comfort zone

D. Expand your comfort zone

The arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.

Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang(團伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.

Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.

Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.

I was an extremely verbal child, and growing up with my dad was an experiment in linguistics(語言學). My father was a man of few words. Whenever I wanted his permission for a certain activity, I planned a speech that included who would be there, where it would take place, how long it would last, and why it was an incredibly wonderful opportunity for me. He would listen and then say either “Yes” or “No.” There were never any qualifiers; not “Yes, but be home by dinner” or “No, unless you can convince me otherwise.” It was yes or no, plain and simple.

My father’s phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl. I was quite active in high school. Not only did I enjoy being involved in many areas, but I came into contact with many a great teenage guy. I can recall one busy day when I had met two great guys and had given each of them my phone number. The first words out of my mouth when I walked through the front door were, “Dad! Did anyone call?” His answer, of course, was simply “Yes”. I required for a more accurate description of the caller. His answer: “A boy.” Since I had met two guys that day, this did not help me. I ran to my room in tears.

Knowing my dad’s dislike of language in general and his fondness for briefness, it surprised me to hear that he was going to teach the eleven-year-old boys’ Sunday school class. He did so for not one, but many years. I always wondered if he actually said anything, or if they all just sat in their chairs and stared at each other. I was sure that if people were waiting on my father to break the ice with brilliant conversation or a springboard comment, they’d be badly disappointed. Still, September after September, my father hung his sign outside the Sunday school room: Mr. Ernst—Eleven-Year-Old Boys.

1. In order to get Dad to agree to the author’s outing, the author had to make up the following EXCEPT _____.

A. the friends I shall meet in the activity

B. the activity is a chance for anyone

C. the place where the activity is to be held

D. the time that I shall spend in the activity

2. When the author says “My father’s phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl.”, it means that when she was young _____.

A. her father once gave her a lesson about patience and long-lasting pain

B. her father’s brief phone messages angered her a lot but made her patient

C. she was trained to be patient and brave because of her father’s brief phone messages

D. she suffered and had to be patient because of her father’s brief phone messages

3. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “break the ice” in Paragraph 3?

A. Make the ice crack.B. Stop talking.

C. Start a talk.D. Interrupt a talk.

4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. My father would answer me with “Yes, but be home by dinner” sometimes.

B. I came into contact with just a few great teenage guys because I was active in high school.

C. That my father would teach the eleven-year-old boys’ Weekday school class surprised me.

D. I always wanted to know how my father, who talked so little, taught the boys.
