If the rose can be said to be a special flower, then the apple can be said to be a special fruit. It is very important in American culture. American stories speak of Johnny Appleseed, who went throughout America collecting apple seeds and planting apple trees. He had a great love for nature and went through fields and farms adding richness and beauty to the country.
One of the first sayings taught to school children is, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This short saying encourages children to eat fresh fruit to keep healthy. If someone always says good words to a person, people will call him an “apple polisher”. This, however, is not a good name. If someone is very dear to us, we say that he or she is the “apple of our eye”.
Most people believe that the fruit which Eve gave to Adam was an apple, even though the Bible(圣經) never says so. The apple, therefore, is a deep part of the language and stories of America.
An apple is also delicious. Apples can be cooked in many ways, used as a dessert, and made into sweet juice.
In many parts of the country during the harvest season, a popular activity is to go into an apple garden to pick apples. Washington, D. C. and New York are both famous for their apples.
Finally, when it’s time to take a vacation to American cities, one can always visit New York, which is “the biggest apple” of all the American cities.
【小題1】What does the underlined phrase “apple polisher” mean?
| A．Something for cutting apples. |
| B．A person who likes to please others. |
| C．A person who is dealing with fruits. |
| D．A machine for cleaning apples quickly. |
| A．cooking | B．medicine | C．shopping | D．health |
| A．Apples are medicine. |
| B．Apples are the most important food. |
| C．New York is famous for its big apples. |
| D．The Bible says Adam was given an apple. |
| A．stories about the apple |
| B．apples in American culture |

Clothing is a language. It tells us about individual people: their personality, their age, their place in society and so on. If we want to know more about society, we can look at traditional clothing. 
The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colours — red, gold and green in the clothing. The first colour stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves(奴隸); the second is for the rich resources of the African earth; and the third represents the grasslands of home.
The patterns(圖案) on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “×”, which stands for “unity”. Another pattern is a rectangular box, which represents “strength”.
Because clothing has a strong social meaning, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For instance, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband differently according to the importance of the social event.
Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose(寬松的) clothing. The climate, with the hot sun and wide temperature ranges(變化), requires that the clothes are comfortable for daily life.
Although many people wear western clothes, particularly in the big cities in Africa, traditional dress is very highly valued(評價). This is because it has deep cultural meanings.
【小題1】According to the passage, red ________.
| A．represents the setting sun |
| B．stands for African unity |
| C．is chosen because it is a bright colour |
| D．is a reminder(暗示) of the sad history in Africa |
| A．it has deep cultural meanings |
| B．people wear it in the big cities |
| C．it needs to protect people from the climate |
| D．it needs to keep people dry in the rainy season |
| A．African dress has deep cultural meanings. |
| B．Africa has a long history and a rich culture. |
| C．The rectangular box in the pattern represents “strength”. |
| D．People in the big cities in Africa prefer to wear western clothes. |
| A．the history of clothes |
| B．modern fashion styles |
| C．the meanings of traditional dress |
| D．the materials used in traditional dress |

Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar（語法）. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (發音) is sometimes different.
