As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded「Is there a doctor on board?」announcement. I』ve been 36 only once—for a woman who had merely fainted.

So 41 the New England Journal of Medicine last week 42 a study about in-flight medical events, I read it 43 interest.
The study estimated that there are a (n) 44 of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U. S. Flights every day.

The most common of the serious emergencies 48 heart trouble, strokes, and difficulty breathing.
Let's face it: plane rides are 49 . For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly 50 they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty 51 , but passengers with heart disease 52 experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxyg en flowing through their blood. 53 common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis——the so-called economy class syndrome (綜合症). 54 happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight-emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation (法規) ,flights with at 55 one attendant are starting to install emergency medical kits to treat heart attacks.

第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中，選出最佳選項。
A
I knew I was all right now. Nobody else would come a-hunting after me. I got my traps out of the canoe and made me a nice camp in the thick woods. I made a tent out of my blankets to put my things under so the rain couldn’t get at them. I caught a catfish and towards sundown I started my camp fire and had supper.
When it was dark I sat by my camp fire, feeling pretty satisfied; but by and by it got sort of lonesome, so I went and sat on the bank and l istened to the current crashing along, and counted the stars and drift logs and rafts that come down, and then went to bed; there was no better way to put in time when you are lonesome; you can't stay so, you soon get over it.
And so for three days and nights. No difference—just the same thing. But the next day I went exploring around the island. I was boss of it; it all belonged to me, and I wanted to know all about it; but mainly I wanted to spend the time. I found plenty of strawberries and green summer grapes; and the green blackberries were just beginning to show.
Well, I went fooling along in the deep woods till I judged I wasn't far from the foot of the island. I had my gun along, but I had shot nothing; it was for protection. About this time I almost stepped on a good-sized snake, and it moved quietly and smoothly through the grass and flowers, and I after it, trying to get a shot at it. I clipped along, and all of a sudden I bounded right on to the ashes of a camp fire t hat was still smoking.
My heart jumped up among my lungs. I never waited for to look further, but uncocked my gun and went sneaking back on my tiptoes as fast as I could. Every now and then I stopped a second among the thick leaves and listened, but my breath came so hard that I couldn't hear anything else. I moved quietly along another piece further, then listened again; and so on, and so on. If I see a stump (樹樁) , I took it for a man; if I stepped on a stick and broke it, it made me feel like a person had cut one of my breaths in two and I only got half, and the short half, too.
There was no time to be fooling around. When getting to the camp, I got all my traps into my canoe again to have them out of sight. I put out the fire and threw the ashes around to look like an old last year's camp, and then climbed a tree.
I suppose I was up for two hours; but I didn't see or hear anything—I only thought I heard and saw as much as a thousand things. Well, I couldn't stay up there forever; so at last I got down, but I kept in the thick woods and on the lookout all the time. All I could get to eat was berries and what was left over from breakfast.

Africa is home to a wide variety of religions and cultures, and this colorful variety is reflected in its diverse and colorful weddings traditions.
If any one wedding tradition might be said to be indicative of the African continent it would be the importance of family. An African wedding is, more than anything, the bringing together of two people as a single family, or the combining of two families or even the mixture of two tribes into one family unit. The concept of family is one of the unifying ideas of the African continent.
There are more than l, 000 cultural units in Africa and each culture, each tribe has its own wedding and marriage traditions, many of which can trace their origins back hundreds or even thousands of years.
Depending on which part of Africa you are in, wedding ceremonies can be elaborate, some lasting many days. Often huge ceremonies are held during which many couples are united at the same time.
In Sudan and other areas along the Nile, a man must pay his wife's family in sheep or cattle for the loss of their daughter's labor in support of the family. A wife may cost a man as many as 30 to 40 head of cattle. Often it is difficult to pay the family yet still have enough cattle left to support his new wife.
In Somalia a man is allowed to have as many as four wives if he can support them all, and it is not uncommon for a girl to be engaged before she is even born.
Bright festive colors, song, dance, and music are vital elements of many African wedding ceremonies. Common to all wedding ceremonies is the concept of transitioning (過渡) between childhood and adulthood. In any African cultures children are encouraged to marry as young as 13 to 15 years of age, as soon as they have reached physical adulthood.
Divorce is rare in African marriages. Problems in a marriage are often discussed with both families and solutions found. Often entire villagers join in to help a couple find solutions to their problems and keep a marriage from failing.
Marriage is sacred (神聖的) the world over, and that is definitely true in Africa, no matter which region or which culture you come from, and no matter what your religious beliefs. In fact, many cultures have a special totem (圖騰) that is designed to remind a couple that cultural and tribal differences must be allowed for in order to make a marriage succeed. X k b 1 .c o m

In a country that defines itself by ideals, not by s hared blood, who should be allowed to come work and live here? In the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing.
On Dec. 11, 2001, as part of the effort to increase homeland security, federal and local authorities in 14 states staged 「 Operation Safe Travel」—raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification. In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests. But those captured were anything but terrorists, most of them illegal immigrants from Central or South America. Authorities said the undocumented workers' illegal status made them open to blackmail (訛詐) by terrorists.
Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods.
Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent. 「We're saying we want you to work in these places, we're going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it's convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security, especially after Sept.11, then you're disposable. There are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons,」 Anderson said.
If Sept. 11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in America, probably indefinitely. Ana Castro, a manager at a Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop at the airport had been working 10 y ears with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid. Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation (驅逐出境). Castro's case is currently waiting to be settled. While she awaits the outcome, the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben & Jerry's.
72. According to the author, the United States claims to be a nation .
A. composed of people having different values
B. encouraging individual pursuits
C. sharing common interests
D. founded on shared ideals
73. How did the immigrants in Salt Lake City feel about 「Operation Safe Travel」?
A. Guilty. B. Offended. C. Disappointed. D. Discouraged.
74. By saying 「we're going Lo look the other way in terms of what our laws are」 (Line2, Para.4), Mayor
Anderson means「________」
A. we will turn a blind eye to your illegal status
B. w e will examine the laws in a different way
C. there are other ways of enforcing the law
D. the existing laws must not be ignored
75. What do we learn about Ana Castro from the last paragraph?
A. She will be deported sooner or later. B. She is allowed to stay permanently.
C. Her case has been dropped. D. Her fate remains uncertain.

Americans grow happier as they age, surveys find. And a new Pew Research Center survey shows the tendency is holdin g up as the economy declines.
Happiness is a complex thing. Past studies have found that old men tend to be happier than old women.
And even before the economy got terrible, seniors were found to be generally happier than Baby Boomers (people who were born during a period when a lot of babies were born, especially between 1946 and 1964) .Maybe it's because past generations have realized the American Dream, while Boomers work two jobs and watch the dream change.
In times like this, it's clear how age can have its advantages. While not all seniors are facing the recession (經濟不景氣) well, for many the impact is much less serious than it is for younger people.
Why? Many people 65 and older retired and downsized their lifest yles before the economy declined, according to Pew analysts. Most aren't raising kids and many are not so worried about being out of work. Loss of income can be, of course, a source of stress and displeasure.
It's those aged 50-64 who've 「seen their money reduce the most and their anxieties about retirement enlarge the most,」 the Pew survey finds. It also finds that younger adults (aged 18-49) 「have accepted the worst things in the job market but remain relatively cheerful about their financial future.」
Not everyone in any category is extremely happy, of course. Other research has shown that happiness in old age depends largely on attitude factors such as cheerfulness and surviving strategies. Add financial planning to the list.
In the new Pew telephone survey, taken in March and April of 2,969 adults, here's how many people in each age group said they had cut back on spending in the past year:
* 18-49: 68 percent
* 50-64: 59 percent
* 65 +: 36 percent.
And is the recession causing stress in your family?
* 18-49: 52 percent
* 50-64: 58 percent
* 65 + : 38 percent.
Title Happiness is ... being old
Theme The 76 Americans are, the happier they grow.
77 for seniors The American Dream has been 78 by past generations.
They have no kids to 79 and have no 80 about being out of work.

Financial planning 83 for happiness as well.
New finding In the past year people aged 84 65 have suffered the least stress from the recession and cut back the least 85 .
