【題目】The chart shows the challenges people face when they settle in a new country and how the challenges vary according to people's ages.

The most challenging part for young people aged 18 to 34 is making new friends，a problem experienced by 46% of the people in this age group. However，only 36% of 35～54－year－old people find it hard to make friends，and even fewer people over 55(23%) have this problem.

55% of the people in the oldest age group find learning the local language is the biggest obstacle(障礙) when settling. In comparison，the youngest age group finds that easier，and the percentage of young people who have problems learning the local language is much lower，only 24%.

In contrast to their language－learning difficulties，only 22% of the people in the oldest age group have trouble finding accommodation(住所)．However，this is a significant problem for the other two age groups.

In general，all age groups experience the same problems to some extent，but people over the age of 55 report that they face fewer challenges settling in a new country than the younger respondents(調(diào)查對象)．

【題目】任務型閱讀。閱讀短文， 并按要求完成第66～70小題。

On April 26, 2017, a big Chinese ship caught the eyes of the whole world. China's first homemade aircraft carrier(航空母艦) hit the water in Dalian, Liaoning. It_is_the_largest_and_best_ship_China_has_ever_built.

The new ship is China's second aircraft carrier and it has no name yet. China's first carrier is called Liaoning, which bought from Ukraine and later rebuilt by China. The new carrier was designed in China and building began in 2013.It is about 315 meters long and 75 meters wide. That is a bit larger than three soccer fields. The ship must be completed at sea, which will take several years.

An aircraft carrier is like an airport on the sea. It can carry planes and troops to war. Planes fly from and land back on it, and soldiers work and live on it. Thanks to carriers, planes can fight along with warships. They allow planes to take off and land from anywhere in the ocean around the world.

But an aircraft carrier is very hard and expensive to build. It costs a lot of money and needs a large amount of steel and other special materials. For example, a basic aircraft carrier is made of 60，000 tons of steel! It also uses complex(復雜的) technologies, including radar, electrics, mechanics and weapons. Finally, it takes years to build.

Today, not many countries own an aircraft carrier or have the ability to build one. When the new carrier is finished, China will become the seventh country in the world that can build an aircraft carrier by itself, after the US, Russia, UK, France, Italy and Spain.

66和67題完成句子；68題簡略回答問題；69題找出并寫下全文的主題句；70題將文中畫線句子譯成漢語。

【1】To build an aircraft carrier needs________ and ______ besides money, steel and quite a long time.

【3】Today, our motherland has the ability to build our own aircraft carrier. What do you think of it?

________________________________

【題目】Have you ever been in a conflict(沖突)? Do you know how to solve it? Conflict resolution is a peaceful way of trying to solve a conflict. Both sides in the conflict explain what they think happened to cause it. The person who listens to both sides is called the mediator(調(diào)解人).

After both sides tell what they think happened to cause the conflict, they discuss ways to solve it. They try to come up with a “resolution” that both sides agree to. They cannot be angry during the communication. Everyone should use good listening and attending skills while talking. If voices get too loud or it appears that someone is angry, the mediator will speak up and have them treat each other with respect. After different suggestions are shared in how to mediate the conflict, it is time for

discussing the best solution(解決辦法).

Here is an example of how conflict resolution works step by step in a school playground setting:

Someone says a student pushed him on the football field.

The person who was accused as the “pusher” says it was actually an accident.

The person who was pushed gets the mediator.

The mediator takes the two persons to a quieter place, away from others to talk.

The mediator calms them down and lets them know he understands their feelings.

Each person describes what happened.

The mediator repeats what he heard, so it is clear to everyone.

The mediator asks for ideas to solve the problem.

The two persons offer their own solutions.

The two persons have a discussion and come to an agreement.

The mediator makes sure the persons follow the solution.

The mediator offers praise for solving the problem.

Conflict resolution can be used in many environments. It encourages people to tell what really happened, to share their feelings, and to work together peacefully to solve the problem. It offers people workable steps to reach an agreement with the help of a mediator.
