(一)英譯中（15分）
Drug trafficking remains a pervasive and complex issue affecting countries worldwide. Criminal syndicates exploit porous borders and sophisticated distribution networks to traffic drugs across international boundaries. The lucrative nature of the illicit drug trade fuels violence, corruption, and instability in communities.
毒品交易一直是很普遍的複雜問題，影響著全世界。犯罪集團會利用漏洞百出的邊界和複雜的運輸網絡跨越國際邊境，且這種有利可圖的非法毒品交易，本質上也會激起社區暴力、貪腐、不穩定等等問題。
(二) 中譯英（15分）
人口販運議題是國際社會公認惡性重大且殘害人權的犯罪行為。雖然我國在打擊人口販運工作成效為國際社會所肯定，但仍無法因應新興人口販運型態的發生，例如先前發生國人遭詐騙到柬埔寨等地工作，而淪為「豬仔」被迫從事電信詐欺等事件，因此催生了《人口販運防制法》的修法。
The issue of human trafficking means a pretty malicious criminality that threatens human rights by the international society. Though in our country, the efforts of clampdown against human trafficking are accepted and recognized by the international society, we still can’t cope with the occurrence of new patterns of human trafficking. For instance, some nationals were tempted to work in Cambodia and other countries, became victims, and were forced to commit themselves to phone fraud. That’s why the amendment of “Human Trafficking Prevention Act” was later made.

Carol Miller steps into a metal booth that bounces X-rays off her skin, producing a black-and-white image which reveals enough to make her blush. To the eye, she is dressed in a suit in dark, business-like colors. On the monitor, the director of the Transportation Security Administration’s security laboratory is naked, except for a gun and a bomb that she hid under her outfit.
The U.S. government is considering using the technology at U.S. airport security checkpoints because the device now in use cannot detect plastic weapons or substances used in explosives. Miller is sacrificing her modesty to make a point: Air travelers are not going to like being technologically undressed by security screeners. The technology is called “backscatter” because it scatters X-rays. Backscatter machines have been available on the market for years. They are priced between US$100,000 and US$200,000 and used in all sorts of security situations, from screening families of convicts visiting prisons to South African diamond miners going home for the day.
The agency is trying to find a way to modify the machines so it can blur or block the images of sensitive body parts to make them unrecognizable. Another option might be stationing the examiner in a booth so only he sees the image. Some experts feel that the public is willing to accept a certain amount of examination at the airport, but there are clearly limits to the degree of invasion that is acceptable. Others, however, suggest that this device is essential because of the strong likelihood that a terrorist will try to bomb a plane.
卡洛.米勒步入一間金屬小亭，這間小亭內部照射的X射線反射至她的皮膚，但是產生的黑白影像將一切顯明過多，足夠讓她臉紅心跳了。憑肉眼看，她的著裝就像是穿得一身黑的商業人士。在另一處攝像機中，除了掖著的槍支和炸彈外，在這位主任穿著的全套服裝底下可是一絲不掛的身體，而她所在的地點，就在交通安全管理局隸屬的安全實驗室中。
由於現在的儀器無法拿來探測塑膠武器，也無法偵測爆破用途需要用到的物質，美國才考慮在美國安檢點中運用這項科技。卡洛.米勒打算將自己羞怯的一面犧牲掉，她還提出一項重點：搭乘班機的旅客，不需要在安全檢查員的科技工具之下讓自己赤裸，由於這項科技可分散X射線，因此又稱為“反向散射”。這類有反向散射功能的機器，已有好幾年的時間在市場販售著，價格位於十萬美元至二十萬美元之間，且所有的安檢情況都用的到，像是有家人探訪囚犯，都要接受篩查手續的情況，以及南非採礦鑽石的礦工他們下班回家時的情況，都包含在內。
這家機構正試圖找出改造機器的方法，如此一來，我們身體敏感部位的相關影像就能呈現朦朧的樣子，又或者是遮蔽起來，這麽一來誰也認不出這些部位。還有一項選擇：可能就是將檢查人員派駐至小亭內，這樣就只有這位人員看得到影像了。有些專家認為：一般大眾更有意願在機場接受一定程度的檢查，但是可以接受的侵入程度也是有限的。然而也有其他專家認為此種裝置不可少，這是因為恐怖分子將飛機炸成齏粉的可能性依舊很高。

（C） 將檢查人員派駐至小亭內，這樣就只有這位人員看得到影像了。
（D） 研發較新穎的機器模型，如此一來敏感的身體部位就不會洩漏了。
四、Essay（30分）
Do you have a smartphone, or do you use one often? Smartphones make many things much easier. Many people around the world use smartphones every day. But some people are worried that using smartphones everyday distracts us from learning, and this makes us less smart. What do you think? Are smartphones helpful or a distraction?
To cope with the need of working, the use of smartphone is inevitable for me in this digital era. With its multiple convenient functions, we may spend several hours obtaining some entertainment, searching for the nearby locations, and playing some games that involve brainstorming. As a consequence, numerous precious hours of reading have been sacrificed. No wonder some folks begin to notice the drawbacks of smartphones.
Behind the overuse of smartphones, there are related academic reports implemented by UN. Students’ poor academic performance might have something to do with smartphone addiction, which is unfavorable to children’s emotional stability due to the lack of interactions with other classmates and the teacher. Though more than half may seriously learn knowledge through smartphones in a positive way, the other half just use the smartphone to kill time, like listening to the music, following latest trends in social software, and playing games. Now we’ve seen the problem: Improper use of smartphones has become a way to escape the schoolwork for some pupils. Once more students think if their freedom of using smartphones is disrupted by their parents, more conflicts and even emotional dysregulation would disconnect the intimacy and communications between children and parents. If this problem keeps worsening, cases involving violence in society are predictable.
So, resources of relevant psychiatrists’ professional treatment should be emphasized if more children fall into this addiction. Here’s my advice: Psychiatrists may integrate problems related to technology into their original domain after participating in some academic sessions which reveal the latest discoveries from worldwide universities. And finally, psychiatrists would find it easier to tackle the problem of smartphone addiction.
