秦二世時，丞相趙高野心勃勃，日夜盤算著要篡奪皇位。可朝中大臣有多少人能聽他擺布，有多少人反對他，他心中沒底。於是，他想了一個辦法，准備試一試自己的威信，同時也可以摸清敢於反對他的人。

一天上朝時，趙高讓人牽來一隻鹿，滿臉堆笑地對秦二世說：「陛下，我獻給您一匹好馬。」秦二世一看，心想：這哪裡是馬，這分明是一隻鹿嘛！便笑著對趙高說：「丞相搞錯了，這里一隻鹿，你怎麼說是馬呢？」趙高面不改色心不跳地說：「請陛下看清楚，這的確是一匹千里馬。」秦二世又看了看那隻鹿，將信將疑地說：「馬的頭上怎麼會長角呢？」趙高一轉身，用手指著眾大臣，大聲說：「陛下如果不信我的話，可以問問眾位大臣。」

大臣們都被趙高的一派胡言搞得不知所措，私下裡嘀咕：這個趙高搞什麼名堂？是鹿是馬這不是明擺著嗎！當看到趙高臉上露出陰險的笑容，兩隻眼睛骨碌碌輪流地盯著趙高臉上露出陰險的笑容，兩隻眼睛骨碌碌輪流地盯著每個人的時候，大臣們忽然明白了他的用意。

一些膽小又有正義感的人都低下頭，不敢說話，因為說假話，對不起自己的良心，說真話又怕日後被趙高所害。有些正直的人，堅持認為是說明書而不是馬。還有一些平時就緊跟趙高的奸佞之人立刻表示擁護趙高的說法，對皇上說，「這確是一匹千里馬！」

事後，趙高通過各種手段把那些不順從自己的正直大臣紛紛治罪，甚至滿門抄斬。

故事出自《史記·秦始皇本紀》。成語「指鹿為馬」比喻故意顛倒是非，混淆黑白。

Calling a Stag a Horse

In the reign of Emperor the Second of the Qin Dynasty (221-207 B.C.), the prime minister Zhao Gao, obsessed with ambitions, was planning to usurp the throne day and night. But he did not know how many of the ministers in the court were allowed to be ordered about by him and how many of them were his opponents. So he thought out a way to test how high his prestige among the ministers was and also to find out who dared to oppose him. One day when court was held, Zhao Gao let someone bring a stag to the court and, with a broad smile on his face, he said to Emperor the Second of the Qin Dynasty:"Your Majesty, here is a fine horse I'm presenting to you." Looking at the animal, Emperor the Second thought that it was obviously a stag and that it couldn't be a horse. So he said smilingly to Zhao Gao:"Mister Prime Minister, you are wrong. This is a stay. Why do you say it is a horse?" Remaining calm, Zhao Gao said:"Will your Majesty please see more clearly? This really is a horse that covers a thousand li a day." Filled with suspicion, Emperor the Second looked at the stag again and said:"How can the antlers be grown on the head of a horse?" Turning around and pointing his finger at the ministers, Zhao Gao said in a loud voice:"if our Majesty do not believe me, you can ask the ministers." The nonsense of Zhao Gao made the ministers totally at a lose, and they whispered to themselves: What tricks was Zhao Gao playing? Was it not obvious whether it was a stag or a horse? But when they saw the sinister smile on Zhao Gao's face and his two rolling eyes which were gazing at each of them, they suddenly understood his evil intentions. Some of the ministers who were timid and yet had a sense of right eousness did not dare to say anything, because to tell lies would make their conscience uneasy and to tell the truth would mean that they would be persecuted by Zhao Gao later. Some ministers with a sense of justice persisted that it was a stag and not a horse. There were still some crafty and fawning ministers who followed Zhao Gao closely in ordinary times. They immediately voiced their support to Zhao Gao, saying to the emperor:"This really in a horse that covers a thousand li a day." After the event, Zhao Gao punished by various means those ministers with a sense of justice who were not obedient to him, even with whole families of some of those ministers executed. This story appears in "The Life of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty" in The Historical Records written by Sima Qian. From this story people have derived the set phrase "calling a stag a horse" to mean deliberately misrepresenting some thing and misleading the public.

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet (互聯網), but how many of us know the history of the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (網路) didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.
At first the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made 'surfing' (瀏覽) the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line (上網) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet everyday. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people's life.
判斷下列句子是否符合短文內容，符合的用「T」表示，不符合的用 「F」表示。
l. The Internet has a history of less than thirty years.
T F
2. In the 1960s computer networks went wrong easily.
T F
3. Computers become cheaper so that many hospitals and banks were allowed to use them.
T F
4. People didn't have enough software to get on-line conveniently until the early 1990s.
T F
參考答案： 1．F 2．T 3．F 4．T
講解：
1．第二段開頭講互聯網是在60年代建立的，故至今歷史已超過30年。
2．文中第二段闡明計算機網路工作狀況不好(didn't work well)。
3．第三段中說明大學、醫院等都被允許使用電腦，然而，計算機仍然很貴，並且網路很難使用。
4．由第三段最後幾句介紹可知，到90年代，計算機便宜且好用。科學家也發展了軟體使網上瀏覽更方便。而本題干用了not…until句型，譯為「直到90年代早期人們才有足夠的軟體上網」。

「Cool」 is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
「Cool」 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say 「It's cool.」You may think, 「He's so cool,」 when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize (擴大) the meaning of 「cool」. You can use it instead of many words such as 「new」 or 「surprising」. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student's paper was just the one sentence, 「It's so cool」. Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without 「cool」, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word 「cool」? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
1. We know that the word 「cool」 has ________.
A. only one meaning B. no meanings
C. many different meanings D. the same meaning
2. In the passage, the word 「express」 means「________」.
A. see B. show C. know D. feel
3. If you are ________ something, you may say, 「It's cool.」
A. interested in B. angry about
C. afraid of D. unhappy with
4. The writer takes an example to show he is _________ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with B. strange to
C. worried about D. careful with
5. In the passage, the writer suggests (暗示) that the word 「cool」_________.
A. can be used instead of many words
B. usually means something interesting
C. can make your life colourful
D. may not be as cool as it seems
參考答案 ： 1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．D
講解：
1．見首句。
2．由「express」前後詞義關系可推斷出是「表達」的意思，與「show」同義。
3．由第二段首句可知。
4．由例子中的學生用cool 一詞概括出他的所有感受，知cool詞義的擴大會導致語言中詞彙的缺乏，是令人擔憂的。
5．結合第4題的答案可做出選擇。
參考答案 ： 1. A 2. D 3. A 4. D 5. C

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can' t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.
1. The main reason for one's poor memory is that his parents have poor memories.
T F
2. If you don't use your arms or legs for some time, they will become strong.
T F
3. A good memory comes from more practice.
T F
4. Some people can't read or write, but they have better memories, because they have saved trouble.

5. The best title of this passage is 「How to Have a Good Memory」.

One of the things I always believe is that no matter how bad something is, you can take something positive out of it. The one time I wasn』t sure of that was on September 11.
I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier. I turned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed (撞擊) into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. My first reaction (反應) was that it was a terrible accident. Then I saw another plane fly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing (目擊) an act of terrorism.
My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over again. When I watched family members looking for their loved ones, the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget. I couldn』t understand how something this terrible could have happened.
It wasn』t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲劇). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(寬容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Personally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍貴的), to let myself get worried over small things. I』ve learned also that you can』t take things for granted. Things change in the blink of an eye. People go to work and don』t come back. One moment they』re living and the next minute they』re not. And, it doesn』t matter who you are, there is nothing you can do about it. We never know when our time here will be over, so we all need to make the most of every minute we have.
You try to learn from what happened. You can』t be used up by it. You can』t live by it. All you can do is just live.
1. The word 「positive」 in the passage probably means ______.
A. terrible B. bad C. good D. real
2. What did the writer see after he turned on the TV that morning?
A. A fire starting B. A plane flying
C. A terrible accident D. An act of terrorism.
3. From September 11, the writer had realized that___________.
A. people should make the most of every minute they have
B. he has become less tolerant towards others
C. he should get worried about little things
D. life is too short to care about others.
4. What』s the best title of this passage?
A. A Report about September 11
B. The Tragedy of September 11
C. September 11 and My Family
D. September 11 and My Turn.
參考答案
講解：
1. C 見第一行，不管（no matter）事情多糟，總能發現有益的東西。
2. D 見第六行。

閱讀下列短文，並根據短文內容選出能完成短文題目的最佳答案。
Mrs. Weeks was reading a newspaper story to her class. The story said：Were you ever in a hospital when you were small? How did you feel? The doctors in Children』s Hospital are asking for money for children』s toys(玩具). Some children in the hospital must stay in bed for many weeks. Toys are needed to keep these sick(生病的)children happy and quiet. Money for them can be sent to the hospital.
After Mrs. Weeks read the story，she said，「This story gave me an idea.」
「You want us to bring some money for the toys.」 「We could bring some of our own toys for the children in the hospital.」 said the boys and girls one after another.
「Well，your ideas would be nice，」 Mrs Weeks said，「but mine is different.」
「We could make some toys.」 shouted one of them.
Mrs. Weeks smiled. 「Do you think you could make toys?」 she asked.
「Yes, yes.」 the whole class answered.
「Great! Let』s begin to make toys tomorrow.」 said Mrs. Weeks.
On Saturday afternoon，Mrs. Weeks took children to the hospital with the toys made by her students. The children in the class felt happy，too.
