Likewise, the movies adapted from J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings have also been very successful. Some critics even predict that the appearance of the movie means the death of the novel, because people do not want to read the novel any more when there is a movie to see.

Reading comprehension. (閱讀測驗) Get a taste of Jamaica at this South Side takeout shop, which serves up some of the best jerk in the city. The scent of grilling chicken wafts outside this tiny space, where locals stream in to place orders through a glass window and wait for their food. There are no seats--just a long ledge--so most business is takeout. Jerk chicken and wings are the most popular dishes, and deservedly so: The smoky meat is mouthwateringly tender, with full-bodied jerk flavor that’s not overpoweringly hot. Other dishes include jerk catfish and shrimp, plus Jamaican favorites like escovitch and callaloo. 34 What would most likely be the nature of the above passage? A tourist’s letter to a friend at hometown An ad of a restaurant in a magazine A traveler’s personal journal An introductory paragraph from a tour guide 35 What does the bold and italicized personal pronoun “their” refer to? Grilling chicken and wings People working in the shop People living in the city Businessmen visiting the city 36 What is the most popular product of the shop, according to the passage? Jerk Chicken Jerk catfish escovitch callaloo 37 What would be the best title for this passage? The Best Restaurant for Dinner Jamaican Jerk Chicken A Glance at Jamaica Touring the South Side of the City Beware of those who use the truth to deceive. When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can create a false impression. For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!” This guy’s a wi nner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser! He didn’t say anything that was false, but he deliberately omitted important information. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest. Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents runs an ad saying, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.” Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s against the law to make false claims, so they try to mislead you with the truth. An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It fails to mention that they o nly asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation. This kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well. 38 Which statement is true according to the article? Whenever people tell the truth, they are really lying. You can’t trust gamblers. All governors help their states. The truth can be used in dishonest ways. 39 This article was written mainly to advise its readers to ___. think carefully about what they read and hear always tell the truth to people never trust anyone who lies a lot vote for female candidates 40 What would be the best title for the article? Dig as Hard as You Can in Your Inquiry People Lie More Often Than You Thought People Can Lie With the Truth Medical Reports Are Often Untrustworthy 九十三年公務人員特種考試關務人員考試試題 代號：12160-12760
