偉大的獵手Jonesie
有個小村莊正為一隻吃人的獅子而煩惱。於是，村長派人去請偉大的獵手Jonesie來殺死這只野獸。
獵手躺著等了幾個晚上，但獅子一直沒有出現。最後，他要求村長殺只羊然後把頭皮給他。把羊皮披在身上後，獵人到草原上去等獅子。
半夜，村民被從草原傳來的聲嘶力竭的尖叫聲驚醒。他們小心地靠近後，看到獵手正躺在草地上痛苦地呻吟。沒有獅子出沒的蛛絲馬跡。
「Jonesie，怎麼了？獅子在哪？」村長問。
「哪有獅子！」獵人怒吼道，「哪個傻瓜把公牛放出來了？」

吃元宵，話元宵
The 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the Chinese Lantern Festival. The first lunar month is called Yuan-month in China, and in the ancient times people called night Xiao. Meanwhile, the 15th day is the first night to see a full moon. So the day is also called Yuanxiao Festival in China. According to the Chinese tradition, at the very beginning of a new year, when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands of colorful lanterns hung out for people to appreciate. At this time, people will try to solve the puzzles on the lanterns and get all their families united in the joyful atmosphere.
Besides entertainment and beautiful lanterns, another important part of the Lantern Festival, is eating small mpling （面團） balls made of glutinous rice flour （糯米粉） . We call these balls Yuanxiao of Tangyuan. Obviously, they get the name from the festival itself. It is said that the custom of eating Yuanxiao originated ring the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the fourth century, then became popular ring the Tang and Song periods.
The fillings inside the mplings or Yuanxiao are either sweet or salty. Sweet fillings are made of sugar, walnuts （胡桃）， sesame （芝麻）， osmanthus flowers （桂花）， rose petals, sweetened tangerine peel （甜橙皮）， bean paste （豆沙）， or jujube paste （棗泥） . A single ingredient （成分） or any combination can be used as the filling. The salty variety is filled with minced （切碎的） meat, vegetables or a mixture.
The way to make Yuanxiao also varies between northern and southern China. The usual method followed in southern provinces is to shape the dough （生面團） of rice flour into balls, make a hole, insert the filling, then close the hole and smooth out the mpling by rolling it between your hands. In North China, sweet or non-meat stuffing is the usual ingredient. The fillings are pressed into hardened cores, dipped lightly in water and rolled in a flat basket containing dry glutinous rice flour. A layer （層） of the flour sticks to the filling, which is then again dipped in water and rolled a second time in the rice flour. And so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the mpling is the desired size.
The custom of eating Yuanxiao mplings remains. This tradition encourages both old and new stores to promote their Yuanxiao procts. They all try their best to improve the taste and quality of the mplings to attract more customers

閱讀理解 (20分)
A.
The world is not hungry , but it is thirsty . It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of (短缺) water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can't drink or use for watering plants directly (直接地) . Man can only drink and use the 3% - the water that comes from rivers and lakes. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it has been polluted (污染) .
Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid (避免) a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it . Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers . But it can be used again. Even if (即使) every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. What could people turn to next?
The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it's already used in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we'll be in no danger of drying up.
