【題目】 Inspiration can be a strange thing. You never know when it might hit. And sometimes, it can come from the most unexpected places.
I recently read about an author(作家) named Okorafor. When she was in college, she had a serious spine disorder(脊椎病). Okorafor was told that a simple operation(手術) could fix it.
But when she woke up from her operation, she found that she couldn't move her legs and was in great pain.
Okorafor got well later. But before she did, she saw strange things in her hospital room.
She imagined her pain as a beast(野獸)that hunted her from the shadows. But she also imagined a woman-a woman who could fly, in fact. This magical woman inspired her and helped her forget her pain. "I felt greater than myself. I felt myself become greater," she wrote in her book Broken Places & Outer Spaces: Finding Creativity in the Unexpected.
We never know where we might find the inspiration to create. As a musician, most of my inspiration comes from other people's music. But I also find ideas in other places. Books, movies and even just moments in everyday life can lead to new creations.
For example, I recently watched the film Blade Runner. I've seen it plenty of times before; it's one of my favorite movies. But this time, for some reason, I saw it differently. I decided to make music that could create the same feeling as the film. It's not done yet, but the movie's setting and characters impacted the music I'm working on now heavily.
Anything can inspire us. You just have to be ready to catch inspiration when it hits.

【題目】 How far can scientists let their curiosity go? The Ig Nobel Prize, a spoof (滑稽模仿) of the prestigious (權威的) Nobel Prize, exists to award unusual or unimportant achievements in scientific research.
The awards are given every year to the 10 strangest research projects of the year. It is to "honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think"
On September 12, the 2019 winners of the Ig Nobel Prize were announced. Here are three of them.
Medicine Prize: Pizza
It's one of the world's most popular foods. but what if we told you that a pizza can protect you against illness and death? According to the Ig Nobel Medicine Prize winner, eating more pizzas can lower the risk of cancer and heart disease---if your pizza is filled with fruits and veggies. These provide flavonoids (類黃酮) to fight against certain diseases. So, if you're a pizza enthusiast, you now have one more reason to love it!
Economics Prize: Dirty Money
As one of the most frequently passed items on the planet, paper money is known to pick up all kinks of bacteria (細菌). Which country's money is the dirtiest? To find the answer, an international team of scientist compared seven countries' paper money. They found that the notes including more polymer (聚合物) specifically the Romanian Leu carry more drug-resistant pathogens (病原體). Perhaps this will make cashless payments popular.
Biology Prize: Cockroach(蟑螂)
Cockroaches are well known for their survival abilities, but few people know they can sense magnetic (磁性的) fields. More surprisingly, an international team found that dead cockroaches have more magnetic properties (特性) than live ones. That's because magnetic properties drop when the temperature gets higher.
So if you can stand cockroaches, they may be good magnetic sensors.
【1】According to the survey, which country's paper money is the dirtiest?
A.RomanB. LebanonC. RussianD.Romanian
【2】What kind of cockroach may have more magnetic properties?
A.A dead one near the stove.B.A live one near the stove.
