Choose the appropriate letters A – D that best finish the sentence or best answer the question and write them in boxes 1-4 on your answer sheet.

Olive trees must be properly cared for in order to achieve good economic yields. Care includes regular irrigation, pruning, fertilizing, and killing pests. Olives will survive on very poor sites with shallow soils but will grow very slowly and yield poorly. Deep soils tend to produce excessively vigorous trees, also with lower yields.The ideal site for olive oil production is a clay loam soil with good internal and surface drainage. Irrigation is necessary to produce heavy crops and avoid alternate bearing.The site must be free of hard winter frosts because wood damage will occur at temperatures below 15°F and a lengthy spell of freezing weather can ruin any chances for a decent crop. The growing season also must be warm enough so fruits mature before even light fall frosts (usually by early November) because of potential damage to the fruit and oil quality. Fortunately olive trees are very hardy in hot summer temperatures and they are drought tolerant.

Answers:

1. 下列何者不是橄欖樹之管理部份(olive tree management)?

Olive trees must be properly cared for in order to achieve good economic

yields. Care includes regular irrigation, pruning, fertilizing, and killingpests. Olives         will survive on very poor sites with shallow soils but will grow very slowly and yield poorly.

橄欖樹之照顧管理包含有,灌溉, 修剪, 施肥, 及害蟲之防治. 

Careful watering = irrigation  ; killing parasites = killing pests ;

feeding = fertilizing .

正確答案為 B .

2. 根據本文, 霜( frost) 所造成之主要傷害為何?

關鍵字詞定位 danger of frost ;  第二段The site must be free of hard winter frosts because wood damage will occur at temperatures below 15°F and a lengthy spell of freezing weather can ruin any chances for a decent crop.

文中敘述” 橄欖種植地點必須不會受到嚴酷冬季之霜害, 因為若溫度低於華氏

15度, 則橄欖樹會受損害;且若冰冷之氣候時間過長, 則亦導致尚不錯之收成因而受損減產( ruin any chances for a decent crop), 意味著低溫將影響橄欖果實之收成.   答案選擇為  C.
