114年北捷招考-國文、英文

齊人有好詬食者，每食必詬其僕，至壞器投匕箸，無空日。館 人厭之，忍弗言，將行，贈之以狗，曰：「是能逐禽，不腆以贈子 。」行二十里而食，食而召狗與之食。狗嗥而後食，且食而且嗥。 主人詬於上，而狗嗥於下，每食必如之。一日，其僕失笑，然後覺 。郁離子曰：「夫人必自侮，而後人侮之。」又曰：「飲食之人， 則人賤之。」斯人之謂矣。（《郁離子》〈詬食〉）

膽固醇如果要變成淤塞人體血管的穢物，為什麼一開始它又要 藏身在饌味珍饈之間呢？我們這樣努力生產和消費，這麼龐大的生 活鏈中，有多少東西像膽固醇呢？珠寶是一種膽固醇嗎，諾言是一 種膽固醇嗎！唱片呢，玫瑰呢，權力呢，名望呢？膽固醇啊，膽固 醇，你到底是弄臣呢，還是刺客？（莊裕安，〈膽固醇與法斯塔夫 〉）

琦君〈髻〉：「我已懂得，一把小小黃楊木書，再也理不清母 親心中的愁緒。因為在走廊的那一邊，不時飄來父親和姨娘琅琅的 笑語聲。」

鐵道不是一把尺，而是□□。車站為針尖腳，我是那活動的鉛 筆腳。慢吞地畫出半徑或圓圈，丈量著經過的大城大鎮小村小落。 （劉克襄〈《11 元的鐵道旅行》自序〉）

Kevin’s paintings somehow lack the originality that we are looking for. 

The new manager overlooked the importance of blending in with the company culture.

       In 2024, Oxford University Press named “brain rot” the Word of the Year. Over 37,000 people participated in a public vote and chose this term to reflect the spirit of the times.

       According to Oxford, “brain rot” is defined as the worsening of a person’s mental or intellectual state, especially as a result of spending excessive time on online content that is considered unimportant or unchallenging. It can also refer to content likely to cause such a condition. A common symptom of brain rot behavior is zombie-scrolling, in which people mindlessly scroll through tweets or threads for hours.

       Researchers have observed growing public concern about the impact of consuming large amounts of low-quality posts and short-form videos on social media. Usage of the term “brain rot” increased by 230% from 2023 to 2024. This rise highlights an awareness among digital citizens—especially members of Gen Z and Gen Alpha—of the phenomenon and its negative consequences. These include poor or insufficient sleep, depression, anxiety, difficulty focusing, and an inability to engage in more intellectually demanding tasks. School-aged individuals, in particular, may struggle to retain information, regulate their emotions, and solve complex problems.

       Although many people are aware of this unhealthy trend, it doesn't necessarily mean they are willing to change their habits, as the behavior can be addictive. However, psychologists offer some practical tips for those seeking a “digital detox.” First, engage in mental workouts such as learning a new language or musical instrument to improve attention span. Second, increase physical activity to naturally reduce screen time—outdoor activities are especially recommended.
