請依下文回答第41題至第45題：
In the summer, many people often decide to get fit. But   41   their motivation is correct, the methods sometimes are not. Over the years, statements like “eat less to lose weight” have been passed around as good advice. In fact,   42   fitness strategies are unhealthy— and even dangerous. Unfortunately, many people want to lose weight so badly that they will believe any advice— good or bad. Here are two of the most   43   myths about getting fit.
“If I just eat less, I will lose weight.” Many people only focus on the amount of food they consume each day. They neglect to pay attention to what they’re eating. So they may be eating less, but they’re not eating healthily. Be sure to eat a good balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats. You need all three food groups to   44   a healthy body. What you eat is just as important as how much you eat.
“If I build muscle, I will gain weight.” This statement is actually true. Muscle is more dense than fat, so the same amount weighs more. But muscle also takes up less space. When you   45   muscle, you will be thinner and your clothes will feel looser.

41 (A) when (B) unless (C) while (D) because
42 (A) such (B) so (C) much (D) few
43 (A) well-organized (B) often-heard (C) good-looking (D) heart-breaking
44 (A) hold (B) maintain (C) stay (D) contain
45 (A) substitute fat for (B) provide fat for (C) interchange fat with (D) replace fat with

      在夏季，許多人決定要塑身。但是   41   他們的動機正確，方法有時候並不正確。許多年來，有些說法例如「節食減肥」被流傳認為是個好的建議。事實上，  42   塑身方式是不健康的 – 甚至有危險的。不幸的是，由於許多人迫切地想要減肥，因此他們不論好的或壞的建議都相信。這裡有二個關於塑身最   43   的迷思。
「我只要吃的少，我就會減肥。」許多人僅專注在他們每天食物的攝取量。他們忽略了去注意他們吃的是什麼。因此他們也許吃的較少，但是他們吃的並不健康。要注意攝取均衡的蛋白質、碳水化合物和脂肪。你需要所有這三種食物組合來   44   一個健康的身體。你吃什麼和你吃多少是同等的重要。
「假如我增強肌肉，我就會增重。」這個說法確實是真的。肌肉較肥肉密度高，所以同等的質量較重。但是肌肉占的空間也較少。當你   45   肌肉，你會較瘦，而且你的衣服也會感覺到更寬鬆了。  

41 (A) 當 (A) 當 (C) 雖然 (D) 因為 答:C

42 (A) such (B) so (C) much (D) few 答:A
 

fitness是名詞，名詞可以修飾名詞strategies(文法書p.237)fitness strategies是一個名詞片語；
such「如此的」是形容詞，後面可以接名詞片語fitness strategies；
不能選B，因為so 是副詞，後面不能夠直接接名詞
不能選C，因為much (文法書p.292)只能修飾不可數名詞；strategies 是一個複數可數名詞
不能選D，few「有一些但非常的少」(文法書p.293)可以修飾複數的可數名詞(文法書p.293)，但是意思與文章的意思不合。)

43 (A) 組織很好的 (B) 經常聽到的 (C) 長的好看的 (D) 心碎的 答:B

44 (A) 握住 (B) 維持 (C) 停留 (D) 包含 答:B

45 答:D
 

substitute fat for muscle         「以fat 代替 muscle」；
provide fat for muscle             「提供 fa 給 muscle」
interchange fat with muscle    「fat 和 muscle 互相交換」；
replace fat with muscle           「用 muscle 替換 fat」

請依下文回答第 47 題至第 50 題：
When Laura Bush walked into the room wearing a stunning tangerine suit, I wanted to say— just the way I would to a friend— “Have you been working out?” “Have you changed your hairstyle?” She looked slimmer and even younger than the woman I interviewed a little less than four years ago, on the day before the world changed. Back then, on September 10, 2001, Washington, still reeling from an election that rested on a mere 537 votes in Florida, was recovering from culture shock. The Bushes ran a very different White House than the Clintons. They were on time for appointments, they spent quiet evenings with intimate friends, and they went to bed early. Not exactly a hip Hollywood lifestyle. But the
First Lady, a title she still thinks of as too lofty and inauthentic to describe her, was winning hearts and minds. She is, after all, a teacher and educator. She taught elementary school in Houston and Austin for several years, and produced an outstanding book fair in Washington with some of America’s greatest authors populating vast lawns filled with tents, talking to throngs about their works. Laura Bush’s love of reading is partly what defines her. I always wondered if books were substitutes for the brothers and sisters she didn’t have growing up in Midland, Texas and if they kept her from feeling lonely.

        當Laura Bush(美國布希總統的妻子)穿著一身漂亮的橘紅色套裝走進房間時，我想要說 - 就像是對一位朋友一樣 – 妳一直有在運動嗎？妳改變了妳的髮型嗎？她看起來較我在將近四年、世界改變前的那一天、所訪問的女人稍瘦、甚至年輕些。在那個時候，在2001年9月10日，華盛頓(美國首都)，仍然糾纏在佛羅里達州僅差537票的選舉，正從文化衝擊中恢復。布希夫婦統治白宮和科林頓夫婦很不一樣。他們會準時出席約會，他們和親密的朋友共度安靜地夜晚，而且他們早早就寢。不是趕時髦的好萊塢風格。但是第一夫人，她仍然認為這個頭銜太高傲而且不能很確切的描述牠，正在贏得人心。畢竟，她是一為位老師和就教育家。她曾經在Houston市和Austin市的小學執教了幾年，而且和一些美國最偉大的作家舉辦了極其成功的書展，在佈滿了帳篷的草地上和群眾討論他們的作品。Laura Bush的熱愛閱讀可以詮釋她一部分。我一直覺得是否是書本取代了她在德州Midland市沒有兄弟姐妹的成長，而且是否是它們使得她遠離孤獨。
