II. English Ability 1. Paraphrasing : Rewrite the following sentence in English to express the same meaning or information with different wording and structure. We as a member of this world have our share of responsibility to protect the Mother Nature.

2. Logical predicting : Finish the following sentence in a logical way by writing 5 to 10 words in English. The event wouldn’t have been such a great success if ______________________________.

3. Summarizing: Write a summary in English between 80 to 100 words to get the gist of thefollowing article. (It is strongly recommended not to copy the same sentences of the original texts.)       It all started with Queen Margaret of Scotland, who, in 1288, degreed that in a leap year a womancould propose to any man, as long as he was single. Any man who declined such a proposal must pay afine, ranging from a kiss to a pair of gloves to a silk dress to £100.      The law was dropped years later, but the custom remains: February 29th is traditionally the day forladies to turn the table and propose to their partners. It’s the once-in-every-1461-days opportunity.      Consider for example the case of Joanne Mills: she was fed up with waiting over nine years for herboyfriend, Michael Cordwell, to pop the question. So she took a tin of red paint to the place where heworked, and painted a proposal across the side of his van. “I was very embarrassed – not because shehad asked me, but the way she did it was so unsubtle,” said Michael. He told her to get down on oneknee and ask the permission of his father. She did, and they tied the knot. (continued on next page)      But, according to a survey by a London-based cosmetics firm, couples should look before they leap.Only 29% of men would say ‘yes’ if their girlfriend proposed to them on February 29th. One in threewomen admit they are too nervous of being turned down, and more than half of them believe it is still ajob for the boys.       Whether the proposal should come from men or women, there is a large body of opinion whichbelieves that a proposal, particularly a romantic one, remains a vital ingredient in the recipe for asuccessful marriage. What’s behind the idea is that people want commitment and to be seen together,just like they are all for big dresses for the wedding.      Set against the romantic school is the modern school, which thinks that lengthy thought andthorough consideration are more important. Not only the impulsive action of popping the question canlead people to ill-fated marriage, but it is also a cheeky thing to do because one is under great pressure to say yes. It is an invitation to be kicked in the face.

(1) In a compensative gesture as a peace-maker, the U.N. ground forces were looking for signs of surviving civilians in the rubble before ambushed by heavily-armed local rebels at early dawn. 

(2) Cosmetic surgery has become a booming, $10.1 billion business each year in the United States. Women, accounting for 91% of cosmetic patients domestically, are electing to make some quick fixes more than ever. Moreover, now it’s not just a nip and tuck for older women to appear younger and fresher: Greater numbers of younger women are now going under the knife. Cosmetic procedures are up 4% for women in their 30s, and 30% of all liposuction recipients are aged between 19 and 34. This may indicate a new wave of perfection-seekers, as normal-weight women trim an inch of unwanted fat from their thighs or ditch their miracle bras for larger boobs—now the most popular invasive procedure.
