【題目】
For years, the word “popular'，has been demonized（妖魔化）and made thesame as mini-skirt-wearing, hair-coloring cheerleader types like Regina Georgein Mean Girls. Today, teachers and parents inform children that being popularis irrelevant（不相干的），unnecessary and a sure shortcut to upset, misery, anddeath. And some people describe popular students as the ones most likely tobum out and end up as nobody, while their less well-liked counterparts enjoy alife of wealth and fame.
However, the Oxford English Dictionary defines（定義）popularity as:“TheState or condition of being liked, admired, or supported by many people’ Thissounds like a lovely thing, and is not related to such behaviors as “burn books” or “three-way phonecalls" in Mean Girls．
In fact, it is a truth widely acknowledged that young people who feel liked or supported are morelikely to obtain impressive achievements than those who feel lonely, unvalued, and irrelevant socially.So why, then, is popularity given such a bad name? Why is this state of well-likedness so demonized?
Basically, the hatred (恨) shown toward what appears to be a very pleasant thing is caused by lackof understanding. When we, as viewers, see characters such as Regina Georges on TV and in films, werecognize them to be popular. These characters, if not exactly liked,，greatly admired by their peers（同伴）．Our mistake comes when we try to understand their cruel and unkind actions using the deduction（推論）method.Humans are imperfect, and even the most intelligent mind is open to dishonesty through a very smallslip in logic. Unfortunately, this occurs here with branding results
We first learn that a character is popular. Since this is important to the plot, it is constantlyemphasized, leading it to be the most common thing in our minds when we consider the character.Later, we see that character do something unkind. The character's most noticeable characteristic (inour minds) is his/her popularity. And now the character is mean and unkind. This character is popular.Therefore, we jump to a quick conclusion (結論) that popular people are mean and unkind.
Things such as improper behaviors and rumor-spreading are terrible and should always be seenin a very serious light. However, it is important to recognize that these are not the behaviors of popularpeople, but bullies.
So, in summary, do not be afraid to be popular and have many friends. If you are kind to everyoneand treat others with respect, there will be few who can criticize you, for being widely liked is not acurse but a blessing. Just remember that being popular does give you a degree of power, and with greatpower comes a large electricity bill!

B. Students who feel supported have a better chance to achieve more.

【題目】Books Bring Success
|
People growing with more books are more likely to be successful. |
According to German novelist Heinrich Mann, a house without books is like a room without windows. Mann simply stated the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in their homes really do gain a window on the world.
A new study in the journal Social Science Research, published in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational advantages, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them.
In the study, over 160,000 adults from 31 countries and regions were asked about the number of books there were in their homes when they were 16 years old. They were then given tests in literacy (讀寫能力), numeracy (計算能力) and information communication technology.
The research shows that the number of books for each household varies greatly from country to country. For example, the number of books is 27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia. But “the total effects of home library size on literacy are large everywhere”.
The researchers found that people who had only lower levels of secondary education but had a large number of books at home got a similar score as university graduates who grew up with only a few books.
The Guardian newspaper commented that “bookish adolescence makes for a good deal of educational advantage.”
“Adolescent exposure to books can compensate for shortcomings not only in adult literacy but also numeracy: its impacts are equal to additional years of education,” Sikora told Science Alert.
Apart from the educational benefits, growing up with more books also plays an important role in adult success.
Through analyzing their personal information, researchers found that people surrounded by books in adolescence are on average more successful in adulthood than those who had only few books at a younger age.
“Early exposure to books in the parental home matters because books are an basic part of routines and practices that enrich lifelong cognitive competencies (認知能力)”, Sikora told Science Alert. These competencies are important to future development.
Without doubt, the fact that we are moving toward a digital era could weaken the importance of printed books. For now, however, “they still seem to maintain quite a large positive benefit, which shows no sign of abating (減弱)”, researchers wrote in the paper.
【1】What’s the study mainly about?
A. Reading habits of different countries.
B. Thebenefitsof growing up with more books.
C. How reading booksbringseducational advantages.
D. The impacts of books on people of different ages.
【2】How many books do an average British family own, according to the study?
A. 27.B. 32.C. 143.D. 218.
【3】The underlined phrase“compensate for”probably means ______.
A. make upforB. result inC. prepare forD. draw attention to
【4】According to the study, people who readmorebooks in adolescenceare likely to______.
a. havebetterliteracy
