Passage A

When I asked my daughter what she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 p.m. and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day.
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Johnston. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought in doctors.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Deutsch to ring his sales staff all round the world to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. Anton Ella in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near——but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several strangers at the same time on chat lines. We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they’re space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can reach the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.

第3題：How do you understand “The telephone creates the need to communicate …”?

Passage C

Do you often feel tired lately? Have a doctor said he can’t find anything wrong with you? Perhaps he advises you to take a physical examination, but all the advanced（高級的）equipment shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
Then, consider this: You might be in a state of sub-health.
Sub-health, also called the third state or grey state, is explained as a borderline state between health and disease. Experts have found out that people who work in management positions as well as students around the exam-week are more likely to suffer sub-health. They may feel depressed, anxious or under stress.
Sub-health symptoms（癥狀）are a lack of energy, depression, slow reactions and poor memory. Some other symptoms may include shortness of breath, sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
According to some medical experts, the key to preventing and recovering from sub-health is to form good living habits, alternate（結合）work and rest, exercise regularly, and take part in open-air activities.
As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should also eat more fresh vegetables, fruit and fish because they are rich in nutrient elements that are important to the body.
Experts also point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive（消化）system. They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding sub-health.
