    將下列英文報導翻譯成中文:(35 分)Historical drama series Seqalu: Formosa 1867 took home four prizes, including the award for Best Television Series, at the 57th Golden Bell Awards in Taipei on Saturday. Judges praised the series as an epic drama with a distinct style that showcases conflict and reconciliation between Taiwan’s different historical ethnic groups. The costumes and props truly recreated history while taking the imagery of Taiwanese dramas to new heights, the judges said. The series, adapted from Chen Yao-chang’s 2016 novel Lady Butterfly of Formosa, has been aired on Public Television Service (PTS) and several streaming services such as Line TV and Netflix since August last year. The novel and drama are based on an incident in March 1867, when US merchant vessel the Rover was shipwrecked off the coast of southern Taiwan. Although survivors made it to shore, they were killed by the local indigenous people. This led to conflict among different ethnic communities in the area and ultimately military action by US and Chinese forces.

    (一)North Korea on Thursday said the United States has proposed a resumption of stalled nuclear negotiations in December as they approach an end-of-year deadline set by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for the Trump administration to offer an acceptable deal to salvage the talks. In a statement released by state media, North Korean negotiator Kim Myong Gil didn’t clearly say whether the North would accept the supposed U.S. offer. He said North Korea has no interest in talks if they are aimed at buying time without discussing solutions. He said the North isn’t willing to make a deal over “matters of secondary importance,” such as possible U.S. offers to formally declare an end to the 1950-53 Korean War, which was halted by a cease-fire, not a peace treaty, or establish a liaison office between the countries. “If the negotiated solution of issues is possible, we are ready to meet with the U.S. at any place and any time,” said Kim Myong Gil, who called for Washington to present a fundamental solution for discarding its “hostile policy” toward North Korea.

    (二)For months, Prime Minister Boris Johnson planned on calling a general election in Britain, figuring he could break the logjam in Parliament by taking his case for Brexit directly to the people. Instead, as he has foundered in the early stages of the campaign, Johnson has discovered that the people are taking their case to him. In the voting this summer for Conservative Party leader – and, hence, prime minister – Johnson’s prime selling points were his personal popularity and skills as a campaigner. But in the early stages of the general election, exposed to hostile voices, he has seemed at times unsure, tone deaf and gaffe prone. The charged atmosphere on the campaign trail is a reminder that Brexit has left this country bitter, divided and deeply suspicious of the political establishment. Johnson and his populist aides set out to exploit those sentiments, framing this election as one of the “people vs. the Parliament.” Now he is finding that some of that anger is being directed at him.

So she turned to Predictim, an online service that uses “advanced artificial intelligence” to assess a babysitter’s personality, and aimed its scanners at one candidate’s thousands of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram posts. Predictim is offering parents the same playbook that dozens of other tech firms are selling to employers around the world:artificial-intelligence systems that analyze a person’s speech, facial expressions and online history with promises of revealing the hidden aspects of their private lives. The technology is reshaping how some companies approach recruiting, hiring and reviewing workers, offering employers an unrivaled look at job candidates through a new wave of invasive psychological assessment and surveillance.

    Translate the following passage into Chinese.(20 分)A new model of citizenship is emerging for the states of the contemporary international community. This citizenship is rooted in love of one’s own community, one’s own culture, with a deep sense of civic responsibility for its well-being, but extends the feelings of community and civic responsibility to all those who live within the borders of one’s country. It resonates with the symbols of citizenship—the flag, the constitutions, and the institutions and processes of governance of that country. This is different from the assimilation model of citizenship because it values and respects the heterogeneous identity groups within the borders of the country. The new model of citizenship that hovers on the horizon is not only multicultural, involving respect for all groups of fellow citizens within the state, but is multinational and multidimensional: a three-fold citizenship. The first dimension, one’s local community, has already been emphasized as a part of one’s citizenship in the state, which in turn is the second dimension of citizenship. The third dimension of citizenship has yet to be recognized and explored: citizenship in the United Nations itself. The UN was formed as an association of “we, the peoples,” not as “we, the states.” What weaves the local, national, and the UN dimensions of our citizenship together in a common fabric is the existence of 25, 000 international nongovernmental organizations (INGOs) which bring concerns for peace, justice, human rights, and the environment from our local chapters to the national and on the UN’s level.

    Translate the following English passages into Chinese.(每小題 30 分,共 60 分)

    (一) The Salinas Valley, known as the salad bowl of the United States, is struggling with poverty and malnutrition among the migrant farmworkers who harvest its crops. More than a third of the children in the Salinas City Elementary School District are homeless; overall diabetes rates are rising and projected to soar; and 85 percent of farmworkers in the valley are overweight or obese, partly because unhealthy food is less costly, said Marc B. Schenker, a professor at the University of California, Davis, who studies the health of farmworkers. “The people who grow our food can’t afford to eat it, and they are sicker because of it,” said Joel Diringer, a public health specialist and advocate for farmworkers. “It’s an incredible irony that those who work in the fields all day long don’t have access to the fresh produce that they harvest.” For decades, the fields of the Salinas Valley have been a revolving door of migrants, from the Okies of John Steinbeck’s writings to the Latin American immigrants who tend the fields today. Ninety-one percent of farmworkers in California are foreign born, primarily from Mexico, according to the United States Department of Labor. While the valley’s vegetables are reaching an ever-growing number of American households, public health officials say there are no signs of improvement in the living conditions and diets of farmworkers. 31140 全一張31240 (背面)等 別:三等考試

    (二) The Arctic Ocean may seem remote and forbidding, but to birds, whales and other animals, it’s a top-notch dining destination. “It’s a great place to get food in the summertime, so animals are flying or swimming thousands of miles to get there,” said Kevin R. Arrigo, a biological oceanographer at Stanford University. But the menu is changing. Confirming earlier research, scientists reported Wednesday that global warming is altering the ecology of the Arctic Ocean on a huge scale. The annual production of algae, the base of the food web, increased an estimated 47 percent between 1997 and 2015, and the ocean is greening up much earlier each year. These changes are likely to have a profound impact for animals further up the food chain, such as birds, seals, polar bears and whales. But scientists still don’t know enough about the biology of the Arctic Ocean to predict what the ecosystem will look like in decades to come. Since the mid-2000s, researchers like Dr. Arrigo have been trying to assess the effects of retreating ice on the Arctic ecosystem. The sun returns to the Arctic each spring and melts some of the ice that formed in winter. Algae in the open water quickly spring to life and start growing. These algae are the base of the food chain in the Arctic Ocean, grazed by krill and other invertebrates that in turn support bigger fish, mammals and birds.

The army, which has ruled Myanmar (or Burma, as it was until 1989) for 53 years, albeit in mufti (3) since 2011, has suffered a heavy blow (4). It is the culmination (5) of an extraordinary week in Myanmar. On polling day, the excitement was palpable (6). In the pre-dawn dark, 30 minutes before voting began, the queue at a polling station (7) in Yangon, the country’s biggest city, stretched for several blocks (8). In midmorning a line of voters trailing through a monastery’s leafy grounds (9) suddenly shifted to allow a frail elderly woman, carried up a flight of stairs (10) by two young men, to cast her ballot (11). Through blazing midday sun and afternoon rainstorms, Myanmar’s citizens turned out to vote (12) in their country’s first competitive general election (13) since 1990—a poll which the NLD also won easily, only to see (14) the army refuse to honour the people’s verdict (15).全一張31240 (背面)等 別:三等考試

    (一) The only adequate measure, after the killing of at least 129 people in Paris, is military, and the only objective commensurate with the ongoing threat is the crushing of ISIS and the elimination of its stronghold in Syria and Iraq. The barbaric terrorists exulting on social media at the blood they have spilled cannot be allowed any longer to control territory on which they are able to organize, finance, direct and plan their savagery.

President François Hollande, who vowed to be “unforgiving with the barbarians” of the Islamic State after the carnage in Paris, decided on the airstrikes in a meeting with his national security team on Saturday, officials said. While France has been conducting scores of airstrikes against the Islamic State in Iraq, it had been bombing inside Syria only sparingly, wary of inadvertently strengthening the hand of President Bashar al-Assad by killing his enemies.

    (一)“PARIS — Both were ‘boys next door’ who recently converted to Islam and came under the spell of Islamic jihadists through the Internet. Both were apparently self-radicalized and traveled to Syria on their own. Both turned to the web to promote the Islamic State, with one posting images of a female Kurdish soldier’s severed head on his Twitter profile.” (by Dan Bilefsky and MAÏA de la BAUMENOV, The New York Times, Nov. 19, 2014)

    (二)“EUROPE—It says the standoff between government troops and pro-Russian rebels battling in eastern Ukraine is becoming increasingly entrenched, with the total breakdown of law and order and the emergence of parallel governance systems in Donetsk, the largest city under separatist control, and in the rebel-controlled section of the Luhansk region.” (from Aljazeera English, Nov. 20, 2014)

    (三)“TAIPEI, Taiwan—An amendment to the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation, which not only increases fines for food companies involved in the production of food products with inappropriate additives and materials but also adds new regulations such as using electric receipts, holding regular food safety meetings and setting up food labs, passed a third reading at the Legislative Yuan yesterday.” (by Queena Yen, China Post, Nov. 19, 2014)

    (四)“BEIJING—China’s central bank succumbed to political and market pressure and cut interest rates for the first time in more than two years, in a sign that the country’s leadership is leaning toward more sweeping measures to bolster flagging economic growth.” (by Lingling Wei, The Wall Street Journal, Nov. 2014)

    (五)“The executive action announced by President Barack Obama Thursday night is as much a game changer for labor policy as immigration. He will give some 5 million undocumented workers — the people who ‘pick our fruit’ and ‘make our beds’ — the chance to apply for work authorization and relief from deportation. This represents nearly half the country’s estimated 11.2 million undocumented population, 8.1 million of whom are in the workforce.” (by E. Tammy Kim, Aljazeera English, Nov. 21, 2014)全一張等 別: 三等考試

    Translate the following passage into Chinese.(30 points)A growing number of U.S. colleges are scrambling to fill classes, a trend analysts say is driven by a decline in the number of students graduating from high school and widespread concern among families about the price of higher education. The admissions upheaval at schools ranging from lower-tier colleges to esteemed regional ones contrasts with the extraordinary demand for the most elite colleges and universities. Demographics pose a major hurdle for many colleges that market primarily to high school students. The number of new high school graduates peaked in 2011, after 17 years of growth, and is not projected to reach a new high until 2024, according to the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education. Analysts and educators expect that a rising share of incoming students will need major financial aid. The economic recovery is also hurting enrollment because fewer people go to college when jobs are available. According to state data released this week, Maryland colleges have 2.8 percent fewer students this fall, the second straight year of decline and the sharpest annual drop in 30 years.全一張(背面)等 別: 三等考試類 科: 新聞(選試英文)

    Translate the following passage into Chinese.(30 points)The United Nations climate conference ambled toward a conclusion on Friday, with delegates saying that the meeting would produce no more than a modest set of measures toward a new international agreement two years from now. As usual, the biggest dispute was over money. The talks, the 19th annual meeting of parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, opened nearly two weeks ago in the shadow of a devastating typhoon in the Philippines. The disaster added momentum to a proposal by poorer nations for the creation of a new mechanism to compensate developing countries for damage from climate-related disasters. With the clock winding down and the talks likely to extend into Friday night, the so- called loss-and-damage proposal remained alive. But the wealthy countries that would presumably provide financing for the plan were offering a weaker alternative that would wrap it into an existing area of the climate treaty. “There are no surprises here,” said Ronald Jumeau, a Seychelles diplomat who acts as spokesman for the Alliance of Small Island States, countries likely to be damaged by rising seas and more intensive storms as greenhouse gases trap ever more energy in the atmosphere. “It’s brinkmanship.”
