Want to read a perfect children’s book Explore some recommendations from trusted critics.
My Brother Is Away (Sara Greenwood, illustrated by Luisa Uribe)
It’s never easy to explain that a family member is kept in prison, and it can be especially hard for children. This touching book draws on the author’s own childhood to tell the story of a young girl whose brother is in prison. What does she say to her friends who have seen him on the news And will he still love her A gentle and hopeful story for kids about very adult situations and complex feelings. (For ages 5 to 8)
Eyes that Kiss in the Corners (Joanna Ho, illustrated by Dung Ho)
This book is brilliantly written because it focuses both on how the characters’ eyes look and on how they see. Focusing on a young girl who takes pride in her “eyes that kiss in the corner and glow like warm tea”, Joanna Ho’s lyrical intergenerational story combines with Dung Ho’s warm and often magical imagery to bring us a celebration on how we see the world—and how we see ourselves. (For ages 4 to 8)

When Param Jaggi was five years old, he had a passion to take things apart to see what was inside. He started with toys and even broke a computer, which made his parents not too pleased. As he got older, he shifted from breaking things to building things, which greatly comforted his parents. In middle school, he started working on projects in his kitchen laboratory, and his first project was making biofuels.
Although Jaggi’s parents initially thought his experiments were just a boyhood fancy, he remained determined to make a difference to the environment. Eventually, his parents came around and started supporting his dreams. Jaggi’s interest continued as he grew up, but he focused more on solving real problems, especially those related to the environment.
At 17, Jaggi went beyond his school projects and co-founded Ecoviate, a company that uses technology to solve everyday energy and environmental problems. He planned to transform people’s idea that going green is expensive, by making available a series of affordable products that are easy to use. Through Ecoviate, he designed products that could contribute to a greener future. One of his notable inventions was the “CO2ube”, a device that could be attached to vehicle tailpipes to reduce carbon emissions, and it’s available to many people at low prices. He also reated a smartwatch that changed body heat into energy, which can be used to power up the watch as well as mobile phones.
Young Jaggi, now a third-grade college student studying engineering and economics, has become a famous eco-innovator and his company is developing promisingly. However, Jaggi’s vision to save the environment goes beyond creating products. He plans to launch an online platform through Ecoviate, which will encourage young students interested in science and technology to get actively involved in innovation and invention. Students can submit a science project online, and talk about the help that they need to make the project a reality.
24. What can we learn about Jaggi
A. He dreamed to be an engineer. B. He was curious by nature.
C. He always annoyed his parents. D. He was addicted to playing toys.
25. Which of the following can best replace the underlined part “came around” in Paragraph 2
A. Won out. B. Walked around. C. Changed their minds. D. Paid a visit.
26. What drove Jaggi to develop affordable and user-friendly products
A. His love for greener devices. B. His pursuit of academic career.
C. His hope to boost green industry. D. His desire to make a difference.
27. Why does Jaggie plan to launch an online platform
A. To empower young inventors. B. To promote smart products.
C. To provide eco-themed courses. D. To offer environmentalists funds.

With a brain the size of a pinhead, insects possess a great sense of direction. They manage to locate themselves and move through small openings. How do they do this with their limited brain power Understanding the inner workings of an insect’s brain can help us in our search towards energy-efficient computing, physicist Elisabetta Chicca of the University of Groningen shows with her most recent result: a robot that acts like an insect.
It’s not easy to make use of the images that come in through your eyes when deciding what your feet or wings should do. A key aspect here is the apparent motion of things as you move. “Like when you’re on a train,” Chicca explains. “The trees nearby appear to move faster than the houses far away.” Insects use this information to infer how far away things are. This works well when moving in a straight line, but reality is not that simple, To keep things manageable for their limited brain power, they adjust their behaviour: they fly in a straight line, make a turn, then make another straight line.
In search of the neural(神經的) mechanism(機制) that drives insect behaviour, PhD student Thorben Schoepe developed a model of its neuronal activity and a small robot that uses this model to find the position. His model is based on one main principle: always head towards the area with the least apparent motion. He had his robot drive through a long passage consisting of two walls and the robot centred in the middle of the passage, as insects tend to do. In other virtual environments, such as a space with small openings, his model also showed similar behaviour to insects.
The fact that a robot can find its position in a realistic environment is not new. Rather, the model gives insight into how insects do the job, and how they manage to do things so efficiently. In a similar way, you could make computers more efficient.
In the future, Chicca hopes to apply this specific insect behaviour to a chip as well. “Instead of using a general-purpose computer with all its possibilities, you can build specific hardware; a tiny chip that does the job, keeping things much smaller and energy-efficient.” She comments.
28. Why is “a train” mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. To compare the movement of trees and houses.
B. To explain how insects figure out distances.
C. To highlight why human vision is limited.
D. To illustrate the principle of train motion.
29. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning Schoepe’s model
A. Its working mechanism. B. Its theoretical basis.
C. Its possible application. D. Its novel design.
30. What do the researchers think of the finding
A. Amusing. B. Promising. C. Discouraging. D. Contradictory.
31. What will Chicca’s follow-up study focus on
A. Creating insect-inspired computers. B. Studying general-purpose robots.
C. Inventing insect-like chips. D. Developing energy-efficient hardware.
D
Using artificial intelligence to create artworks increases artists’ productivity and generates more positive reactions, according to a study involving submissions to a popular art-sharing website by more than 50,000 users. But generative AI works are more likely to display stereotypical(刻板印象的) themes, reducing the novelty of an artist’s work.
The researchers tracked 4 million works published on the website by the artists. The artists self-divided into two groups: those who continued to work using traditional methods—a sort of control group, and those who adopted AI. The latter group, numbering about 5,800, were identified by the use of tags(標簽) on their work, such as “AI-generated” or the names of the AI tools. Works posted into AI art communities on the site were also included.
Artists who adopted AI tools saw their productivity measured by the number of works posted increase by 25 percent over the study period. They also saw a 50 percent rise in the number of “favourites” their work received over six months. But novelty, measured by the subject matter and specific details of the work, decreased for the AI-using group.
“The study completely tracks with my own experience with these tools and spaces,” says Andres Guadamuz at the University of Sussex, UK. “”At first, it felt that you could do anything, bring anything in your head into existence, but the more I used them, the more I kept coming back to themes I liked.”
Guadamuz points out that he isn’t judging the quality of the images produced by generative AI nor their originality, nor the creativity involved in the process. All these things are often hotly contested, with some artists saying that generative AI is using their works as training data and limiting their ability to be recognized as creatives.
Zhou at Boston University is also considering these questions. He says, “”The generative technology accelerates the ability to produce. But it raises other issues: Are we abandoning the process of understanding what goes into being creative and producing something meaningful, in favour of just using technology to get things done in a quick but thoughtless way ”
32. What do we know about the artworks created by AI according to paragraph 19
A. They are abundant but less creative. B. They are generative but less popular.
C. They balance popularity with artistic depth. D. They attract viewers with the popular subjects.
33. How was the study conducted
A. By surveying artists’ opinions on AI tools using.
B. By analyzing suggestions on generative AI works.
C. By comparing artworks with different AI involvement.
D. By observing the process of AI-assisted artistic creation.
34. What can be inferred from Guadamuz’s statement
A. AI tools help artists explore new creative styles,
B. AI users receive more recognition for their creativity.
C. Artists believe AI improves the quality of their artworks.
D. Artists may repeat themes they like when using AI tools.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. The Unstoppable Rise of AI Artworks. B. The Breakthrough of AI in Artistic Creation.
C. The Role of AI in Artistic Productivity. D. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Artworks.
第二節 七選五（共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）
閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym, known as a fed workout. Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies, called a fasted workout. ____36____ Many experts say there’s no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout, you need fuel. A fed workout will provide your body with power. Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. ____37____ Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body. Nitrogen(氮) is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles. People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea. They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating. With a fasted workout, you may not get the usual indigestion. Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy, meaning you will burn more fat. ____38____ It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose(葡萄糖) levels, and you may feel dizzy. You may even be more likely to overeat.
____39____ Not all foods are created equal. For example, if you choose a fed workout, you’ll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training, so you should consider drinking some beforehand. With a fasted workout, it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete. Drink some water. Then, have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice. Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. ____40____
A. However, a fasted workout might not work for you.
B. How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C. These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.
D. To eat or not to eat, that is the question on many fitness enthusiasts’ minds.
E. Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F. Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G. A person doing a 30-minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.
