The e-book is a downloadable book that can be put right onto your e-reader, certain cell-phones and computers. There are websites that sell e-books where you can buy them and load them right onto whatever device you choose. The e-book makes it possible to take reading with you, without the mess of carrying dozens of books around with you.
However, not all book authors are okay with having their books in digital format(格式). The writer of Harry Potter says that her books will never be an e-book, and many just like her feel the same way. However, there are lots of authors who absolutely love the idea and feel it’s the next step to keep books alive.
The e-book can be loaded onto an e-reader which is a mini-device that is slim and compact just like a cell phone. It usually has a touch pad screen and can hold a few hundred books. That ’s perfect news for people who travel on planes or go on holidays and would love to take a collection with them but wouldn’t carry fifty hard covers.
The other great thing about e-readers is that you can read e-books on them quickly and there’s no need for two hands to hold the book and turn the page; it is more convenient for people to read it. Most of them also have a nightlight, so if you want to read at night but don’t want a big light on to wake your partner, the e-reader is ideal. You can also use it on a plane, train or bus when it’s dark.
Websites that sell e-books have their sites looking just like ordinary bookstore websites. There is a list for best sellers and a new release section. There are also e-books on sale and gift certificates available to give to someone who also downloads e-books. They seem to cost the same amount of money as buying a paperback book.
| Title | The e-books |
| ________ of e-books | Downloadable books which can be put right onto e-readers, cell phones and computers. |
| Book authors’ ________ towards e-books | ●Some ________ to have their books in digital format ●Others think that the digital format can keep books ________. |

Some expressions have made a jump from sports events to everyday life. One such expression is fall guy. A fall guy is the person who someone decides will be the loser or victim.
The first fall guys were men who wrestled for money. At the end of the 19th century, wrestling was a very popular sport in the United States. Wrestling competitions were held not only in big cities but also at country fairs and traveling shows. As wrestling gained in popularity, it became less like a sport because the winners of the matches were arranged in advance. The wrestlers knew -----before the match ----- which one of them would be the winner.
The goal in wrestling is to hold the shoulders of your opponent down against the floor. This is called a fall. Sometimes, one of the wrestlers would be paid before the match to take the fall. He would agree ____________ ---the fall guy.
Today, a fall guy is anyone who is tricked into taking the blame for the crime or wrongdoing of someone else. There are fall guys in many situations --- people who publicly take the blame when something goes wrong.
A fall guy takes the rap for something wrong or illegal. He accepts responsibility and punishment for what someone else did. He may have something to do with the situation, but is not the person who should be blamed.
The word rap has meant blame for several hundred years. The expression to take the rap was first used about one hundred years ago. Another similar expression is bum rap. A person receives a bum rap if he is found guilty of a crime but is really innocent.

讀寫任務 (共25分)
閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make progress; without a good dream, countries can’t develop; without a good dream, the world can’t become so beautiful! And I hold the strong belief that everyone, whether he is old or young, poor or rich, junior or senior, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is certainly a positive part of our life, and wishing for good things, however, costs nothing!
What’s more, it is important to fly our dreams, especially for those who are Senior 3 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let out dreams fly, the dream would just be a dream, not reality!
Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China succeeded to host the 29th Olympic Games in 2008; with a nice dream, Hongkong returned to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, Yuan Longping rids the world of hunger; with a nice dream, Michael Jordon becomes the most popular basketball star; with a nice dream I can stand on this stage to compete in the final English speech contest. And with an aim of achieving success, I must do the best!
So my good friends, if you want to realize your dream, please do not be afraid in face of difficulties or give up in face of failure nor lose your dream in face of pains. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky!

In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房東) can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartment. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decision, such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be corrected only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
1.There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may________.
|
A．cause a shortage of apartments |
|
B．worry those who rent apartments as homes. |
|
C．increase the profits of landlords. |
|
D．encourage landlords to invest in building apartments. |
2.We can safely say that rent control_________.
|
A．will always benefit those who rent apartments. |
|
B．is unnecessary. |
|
C．will probably bring inactive effects in the long run. |
|
D．is necessary under all conditions |
3.There will be the problem of unemployment if ________________.
|
A．the minimum wage is set too high.. |
|
B．the minimum wage is set too early. |
|
C．the workers are unskilled. |
|
D．the maximum wage is set for poor workers. |
4.The passage tells us about _______________.
|
A．the relationship between supply and demand. |
|
B．the possible results of government controls. |
|
C．the necessity of government control. |
|
D．the urgency of getting rid of government control. |
5.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
|
A．The results of economic decisions cannot always be predicted. |
|
B．Minimum wage cannot always protect employees. |
|
C．Economic theory can help predict the results of economic decision if other factors are not changing. |
|
D．Economists usually have the same prediction about an economic decision. |
