Alexandra Park, a green expanse in the English coastal town of Hastings, is sprawling and lovely. It has wooded areas and several ponds, as well as two long, wide paths which 9 around gently sloping lawns, gardens, trees and even a miniature railway track. It has just about anything a parkgoer could want— __10__ lights, security cameras and other safety equipment. The park’s focus on urban wildlife means that the area is dark at night. But violent incidents can take place even during the day, as Kay Early knows all too well. 
In June 2020, she was walking her dog when a man started following her, then punched her repeatedly in the face. He didn’t take any of her possessions, as three passers-by managed to chase him off. But the attack has had severe __11__ for Early, a 33-year-old support worker for people with autism, who has been living with PTSD ever since. It didn’t help that, nine months after the attack, police told Early that her case was being dropped due to a lack of evidence. It could have progressed if there had been surveillance video in the park, the investigator said. This has led Early and her friend Claire Noble to petition for more safety measures in the park, including CCTV and lights. Similar campaigns have been __12___ elsewhere in England, such as efforts by the Sheffield group Our Bodies Our Streets to improve lighting in the city’s parks. Both the Sheffield and the Hastings campaigns predated the disappearance of Sarah Everard as she walked home in London. But Everard’s death, as well as __13__ of Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman, killed in a north London park in June 2020, have given extra urgency to discussion of women’s safety in public space.
(A) cropping up (B) repercussions (C) validity (D) those 
(E) except (AB) including (AC) weave (AD) scoured 
 

III. Discourse (每題 2 分，共 10 分) 
 Scottish writings have long been impacted by the notion of duality or the “divided self”: the national psyche as a kind of split personality. __14__. It is related to being this type of nation, and maintaining your identity while also submerging it in someone 
else’s.  __15__. You can see it reflected in works such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), where an esteemed doctor, Jekyll, is transformed into an evil creature. In this novella, Jekyll is able to make this “duplicity” from a metaphor into a fact, splitting his self into two so that one part can indulge and the other repress. __16__. 

 G. Gregory Smith labelled the condition the “Caledonian antisyzygy” in 1919. __17__. It goes beyond politics and encompasses divisions such as those between Protestant andCatholic. RD Laing, the Scottish psychiatrist of the 1960s, turned the idea into a Scottish gift to the world: a global malady of alienation between the inner and outer 
selves. 

 Whatever the truth of this, there are fears that ill-feeling among Scots will never vanish. __18__. Back then, some Scottish parliament members were accused of being bribed into giving up their nationhood. Today, unionists accuse the so-called “cyber nats”—nationalists who use the internet to attack those who disagree with them—of reaching new levels of abuse. 

 Would any vote for independence heal the wound of Scotland’s divided self? Examining the depth of the enmities from the past to the present, I put a question mark on that. 

(A) This kind of confrontation can be traced back to the Acts of Union in 1707. 
(B) His term refers to the notion that a clash of extremes lies at the heart of the national mind. 
(C) This concept has a lot to do with Scotland being a nation that is not a “proper” nation.
(D) This duplicity can metaphorically represent the writer’s Scottish consciousness and English identity.
(E) The bitter division on display during the 2014 Scottish independence referendum campaign brought this notion freshly to mind. 
 

IV. Reading Comprehension (每題 2 分，共 4 分) 
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. 
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height 
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight 
For the ends of being and ideal grace. 
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. 
I love thee freely, as men strive for right. 
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise. 
I love thee with the passion put to use 
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose 
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath, 
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose, 
I shall but love thee better after death. 
(Elizabeth Barrett Browning, 1806 – 1861) 
 

19. The following is Daniel’s analysis of this love poem. 
“…1. This poem presents a true reflection of the intense love which the poet feels for her beloved. The speaker expresses her desire to count the ways she loves her lover. 2. She mentions five ways of loving, a lot for a sonnet.... 3.The repetition of “I love thee” accentuates the intensity of the speaker’s love…. 4. “Sun and candle-light” in line 6 symbolizes her character strengths and weaknesses…. 5. She is so deeply in love with her soulmate that he is as important as the basic necessities of life….”
Daniel made two errors in his analysis of this poem. If you were Daniel’s English teacher, 
which of the above two sentences would you revise for him？ 
(A) 1;3 (B) 2;4 (C) 3;5 (D) 4;5 
 

20. What follows is a reader’s critique of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetic text.I think there is something about the fact that Elizabeth is writing so directly from her own life experience, which makes the poems feel so true, so real, and which for me in turn translates quite naturally into all of the different and intricate ways that I might love a person 
and/or be loved in return.

Sometimes I feel as if the word love is overused today—that it has perhaps become a cliché in our commercial world or is simply used too easily, too quickly. But I think thispoem restores my belief in love and shows me language to go above and beyond that four-letter word.

I would strongly recommend that we all need to be slowed right down by this great writer and in the process rediscover what love is and perhaps put better into words one of life’s greatest forces. I know there isn’t a single poem in this collection that I don’t feel personally connected to, simultaneously recognizing something familiar but now heightened or refined through the purification of Elizabeth’s words. I find myself coming back to her poem again and again after 20 years now!
What is this reader’s tone in his critique of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poem? 
(A) Gullible. 
(B) Vindictive. 
(C) Unassuming. 
(D) Laudatory.

1. Please use GRASPS to design an English learning task or project for 11th grade students to work on and to be included in their academic portfolio. (20 分)GRASPS is an acronym for: 

 

2. Test Design: 
Please follow the instructions below to design three integrated reading tasks suitable for the new General Scholastic Ability Test (新型學測混合題型). (20 分)

(1) These integrated reading tasks can be designed to test a wide range of reading skills. These include understanding discourse, organizing ideas, analyzing logical arguments, making inferences, giving evidence, recognizing writers' opinions, attitudes and purpose, etc. 

(2) Please use at least three different kinds of question types for these integrated reading tasks, including multiple-choice, matching, ordering, fill-in-the-blank, table/chart/organizer completion, short-answer questions, true-false questions, and so on. 

 A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine suggests the coronavirus that causes the disease known as COVID-19 survives in the air for likely up to three hours, but it exponentially decreases in its strength during this period. The virus is not spread through the air; it is spread through contact with respiratory droplets from being in close contact with an infected person. In order for a mask to completely protect a person from exposure to respiratory droplets, it would need to be completely secure around a person’s face.Personal protective equipment, including N-95 masks, face shields and more elaborate respirators, helps healthcare workers with potential heavy exposure to the virus and the disease to avoid infection.

 Health officials thought it was best to reserve that equipment for healthcare workers and urged the general public to simply practice social distancing and hand washing to avoid exposure to the droplets.However, in response to data indicating that people can be infected with COVID-19 and not show symptoms, the Centers for Disease Control is now recommending people wear a cloth mask or face covering in public settings, including grocery stores. The goal is to wear face coverings to prevent people who are infected and don’t know it from spreading it unknowingly. A wide range of medical experts have also suggested any filter preventing exposure to droplets can be of some aid to those who wear masks.

 According to the CDC website, “Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure.” The cloth coverings being recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators.
 

If you decide to wear a mask, the World Health Organization recommends taking the 
following steps：
1. Before putting on a mask, clean hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.

2. Cover your mouth and nose with the mask and make sure there are no gaps between your face and the mask.

3. Avoid touching the mask while using it; if you do, clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.

4. Replace the mask with a new one as soon as it is damp and do not re-use single-use masks.

5. To remove a single-use mask: remove it from behind (do not touch the front of mask); discard it immediately in a closed bin. Clean your hands with alcohol-based hand sanitizer or soap and water. If it is a cloth mask, remove it, drop it in the washing machine and wash your hands using alcohol-based hand sanitizer or soap and water.
 

From Roy Parry’s “Why wear a mask and how to wear it properly to help fight COVID-19”

3. Many teachers now believe that new technologies play a very important role in second/foreign language education.
