OW dyainst factories that cause pollution. 閱讀測驗3 But the universal of our climate message of crisis wareness hing a fever pitch across the with increasing urgency, a pparent every day. For the Vandana Shiva will never forget a lesson she learned at the age of 13. Her parents insisted that she should wear clothing made only of homespun cotton. One day, Vandana, having returned from a boarding school to her home, demanded a nylon dress, the fashion followed by her rich friends. Her mother agreed. “If that is what you want, of course you shall have it,” she said. “But remember, your nylon dress will help a rich man buy a bigger car. And the cotton that you wear will buy a poor family at least one meal.” Did she buy the nylon dress? Of course not! Maybe this experience led to her resolution to fight for social justice in her later years. Now 60, ever visiting Taiwan in 2010, Vandana's main concern these days is how to preserve Indian traditional crops. This is severely attacked by many global companies. They encourage farmers to grow so-called high-yielding crops; many farmers, therefore, turn to high-tech methods and depend on bioengineered seeds, chemical fertilizers and pesticides. As a result, hundreds of traditional crops are disappearing. Contrary to expectation, high-tech agriculture can not rescue Indians from starvation. Bioengineered seeds are expensive and cannot adapt to local conditions. Hundreds of Indian farmers have committed suicide during the past five he world ironment. ns in 1970. years because of failed harvests. But there is hope. Many farmers are returning to traditional methods promoted by Navdanya, an organization based in New Delhi that Vandana helped found 20 years ago. Navdanya encourages farmers to produce native varieties of crops that can be grown with natural fertilizer and no artificial chemicals. It also helps local farmers form their own self-supporting organization and seed bank. nean? +明一 生能但奇 63

第二段第三行 Though(Drais’s invention was)not.....中間是省略 這幾個字嗎

男 30 至39 題為題組 DET Born in 1785 in southwestern Germany, 'Bårdh Karl Drais was one of the most creative German inventors of the 19th century. The baron's numerous inventions include, among others, the earliest typewriter, the meat grinder, a device to record piano music on paper, and two four-wheeled human-powered vehicles. But it was the running machine, the modern ancestor of the bicycle, that made him famous. The running machine, also called Draisine or hobby horse, was in effect a very primitive bicycle: it had no chains and was propelled by riders pushing off the ground with their feet. Though not a bike in the modern sense of the word, Drais' invention marked the big bang for the bicycle's development. It was the first vehicle with two wheels placed in line. The frame and wheels were made of wood; the steering already resembled a modern handlebar. Drais' big democratic idea behind his invention was to find a muscle-powered replacement for the horses, which were expensive and consumed lots of food even when not in use. The machine, he believed, would allow large numbers of people faster movement than walking or riding in a coach. Drais undertook his first documented ride on June 12, 1817, covering a distance of 13 kilometers in one hour. A few months later, Drais created a huge sensation when he rode 60 kilometers in four hours. These were later followed by a marketing trip to Paris, where the hobby horse quickly caught on. The fad also quickly spread to Britain. The success of the hobby horse was short-lived, though. They were heavy and difficult to ride. Safety was an issue, too: They lacked a brake, as well as cranks and pedals. There were frequent collisions with unsuspecting pedestrians, and after a few years Drais' invention was banned in many European and American cities. Drais'ideas, however, did not disappear entirely. Decades later, the machine was equipped by Frenchmen Pierre Lallement and Pierre Michaux with pedals to become the modern bicycle.

Some people want the tastiest food, while others desire the biggest return on their investments Before we make any final decisions, we are given a lot of choices to sort through? Most of us feel that the more choices we have, the happier we'll be, as we'll be better able to determine which is best for us. At least, that's what we used to think. Research now shows us that there is such a thing as having too many choices, and it's actually making us miserable.' In fact, an excess of choices can lead to dissatisfaction, depression, anxiety, self-blame, and 'fegret. This is because it paralyzes us and forces us to make decisions that go against our best interest. What's more, it results in a huge waste of time. American psychologist Barry Schwartz lays this all out in his book, The Paradox of Choice. He sheds light on the process by which we become less satisfied, which is the cost of having too many options. First, once we've made our pick, we imagine how we could have done better. This then nags at us, making us regret our imperfect decision Soon, we convince ourselves that the discarded options or even imaginary alternatives would have been better than what we settled on, which causes expectations to rise. We're not completely satisfied with the outcome of our decision, even if it's a good one. In the end, we are no longer able to experience pleasant surprises.
