1. (A) latitude
2. (B) laundry
3. (C) liability
4. (D) liberty
正解：(D)
逐題詳解（免費試讀）
✅ (D) take the liberty of + V-ing 是固定用法，意思是「擅自、未經允許就做某事」；句意「John 很生氣，因為同事擅自用他的電腦」。
❌ (A) latitude 指「緯度」，引申為「行動的自由度」，但不能用 take the latitude of 這個搭配。
❌ (B) laundry 是「待洗衣物、洗衣店」，與擅自使用電腦無關。
❌ (C) liability 指「法律責任、負債」，take the liability 也不是表示擅自行動的用法。
📚 出處：英文片語 take the liberty of + V-ing。

1. (A) recession
2. (B) attribution

正解：(A)
逐題詳解（免費試讀）
✅ (A) recession 指「經濟衰退」；句意「儘管外界擔心景氣衰退，近幾年本地就業成長仍然穩健」，despite 前後語意相反，空格要填負面的經濟狀況。
❌ (B) attribution 是「歸因、歸屬」，多用於學術引用或責任歸屬，不會讓人 fear。
❌ (C) execution 是「執行、實施」，也可指「處決」，與就業成長的對比不合。
❌ (D) motivation 是「動機、積極性」，屬正面詞，放進 fears of 語意矛盾。
📚 出處：英文字彙；商業經濟類常見字 recession。

正解：(B)
逐題詳解（免費試讀）
✅ (B) spiritually 指「精神上、心靈上」；句尾 though they may have a lot of material comfort（雖然物質享受充足）形成對比，空格必須是與「物質」相對的「精神」層面。
❌ (A) physically 是「身體上」，與 material comfort 沒有對比關係。
❌ (C) spontaneously 是「自發地、不假思索地」，修飾 empty 講不通。
❌ (D) pennilessly 意為「身無分文地」，與後半句「物質享受豐富」直接矛盾。
📚 出處：英文字彙；material 與 spiritual 的對比用法。

Do you bike today? Do YouBike rides kindle your passion to zip past one bicycle lane after another? Launched in 2009, YouBike’s rental system offers cyclists an easy way to rent and return bikes. Cyclists only need an EasyCard to rent a YouBike. What’s more, by using this system, bikes can be rented at one location and dropped off at another on a 24/7 basis. In Taipei City alone, there are as many as four hundred YouBike stations. This carbon-free vehicle rental system also extends to many other major cities. No wonder YouBike is acknowledged to have become part of the city landscape in Taiwan. Another important contributing factor in the growing popularity of this rental system has to do with its excellent cost-performance ratio. Each thirty minutes costs only ten NT dollars within the initial four hours. YouBike also serves as a best alternative to cars and buses during rush hours, when the traffic jam can leave you cranky. Perhaps one of its greatest contributions lies in the reduction of carbon emissions. In 2013, statistics showed that YouBike’s rental service contributed to a trip distance of about 11 million kilometers. On this basis, the overall carbon emission reduction in Taipei City was equivalent to 6.89 million metric tons of carbon emissions from motorcycles and 27 million metric tons from automobiles. The success of YouBike also has a lot to do with its creative concepts. It boasts a database management system that can analyze the utilization rate of bikes speedily, resulting in efficient allocation of bikes among rental stations and ensuring that cyclists can rent a bike within ten minutes. With the goals of green economy and sustainable development in mind, it is time to go even greener. Let’s all go YouBiking today!

The most famous mystery about Loch Ness surrounds the phenomenon of an enormous creature, known as the Loch Ness Monster, or Nessie. The first recorded sighting of the monster was in A.D. 565, when it was said to have eaten a local farmer. Over the years, rumors spread far and wide. In 1933, construction began on the A82—the road that runs along the north shore of the Loch. The work involved considerable drilling and blasting and people believed that the disruption forced the monster into the open. Around this time, there were numerous sightings and, in 1934, London surgeon R. K. Wilson took a photograph that appeared to show a slender head and neck rising above the water. Nessie hit the headlines and has remained the topic of fierce debate ever since. In the 1960s, the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau conducted a ten-year survey. By the end of the decade, mini- submarines were used for the first time to explore the Loch. New public interest was generated in the mid-1970s when underwater photographs of what appeared to be a “flipper” were made public. To this day, there is still no conclusive proof. Whatever the truth, it’s always worth a trip to Loch Ness to see for yourself.

On average Americans chew about 300 sticks of gum per person a year. Why is chewing gum so popular? Some people say that it not only helps you relax but also helps you stay awake. Others chew gum after a meal to have fresh breath. It can help fight tooth decay as well. But few people know that there is an even better reason for chewing gum— it can improve memory! In an experiment, the scientists divided 75 people into three groups. One third chewed real gum, one third chewed imaginary gum, and the last third didn’t chew anything. Then, each group was given a lot of different memory tests. The results were very interesting. The people with real gum did better than those with imaginary gum, and the latter did better than those who didn’t have any gum at all. How does chewing gum help memory? One possible reason is that when people chew, there is more activity in an area of the brain that is important for memory. Another possible reason is that when people chew, their heart beats faster so more oxygen goes to the brain. So, do you have an exam coming up? Start chewing now!
