中譯英:請將下列中文句子譯成英文。

長榮海運貨櫃船在蘇伊士運河擱淺,之後運河堵住了 6 天,其他船隻無法繞行長賜輪。此運河是世界上最繁忙的貿易路線之一,其阻塞對歐洲與亞洲及中東之間的貿易產生了重大影響。(長賜輪:the Ever Given)

登入後即可作答並保存紀錄。

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查中譯英,重點是將事件的先後、阻塞的結果,以及運河的重要性與影響,清楚地組織成英文。句子可分成三層:

  1. 長賜輪在蘇伊士運河擱淺。
  2. 運河因此堵塞六天,其他船隻無法繞過長賜輪。
  3. 蘇伊士運河是繁忙的貿易路線,阻塞嚴重影響歐洲、亞洲與中東之間的貿易。

解題方法

先依事件順序安排句子,再用連接詞交代因果與時間關係:

  • 「擱淺」可用 run aground;此處敘述已發生的事件,使用過去式 ran aground。
  • 「之後」可用 afterward,也可用 after which 連接前後事件。
  • 「堵住了六天」可寫 was blocked for six days。
  • 「無法繞行長賜輪」可寫 were unable to sail around the Ever Given。
  • 「對……產生重大影響」可用 had a significant impact on ...。
  • 「歐洲與亞洲及中東之間的貿易」可表達為 trade between Europe and Asia and the Middle East。

參考譯文

英文作文:請以英文寫一篇約 200 字的作文,主題為臺灣的一項環境問題。指出問題、提出解決方案,並想像其後果。請為作文訂定一個能吸引讀者注意的標題。

登入後即可作答並保存紀錄。

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題是英文作文,評量考生能否以英文清楚表達環境議題,並依題目要求完成三項內容:指出臺灣的一項環境問題、提出解決方案、想像方案實施後的結果。題目也要求作文約 200 字,並自訂一個吸引讀者注意的標題。

解題方法

選擇「塑膠垃圾與海洋污染」作為主題,因為它與臺灣的海島環境、日常消費及垃圾處理密切相關,也容易提出具體可行的解決方式。全文依照「問題—對策—預期結果」安排:

  1. 點出問題:說明一次性塑膠用品造成垃圾,部分塑膠流入海洋,危害海洋生物與生態。
  2. 提出方案:從政府、商家及個人三方面提出減塑措施,包括減少免費塑膠用品、提供重複使用選項、推動回收與環境教育。
  3. 描述後果:想像減塑措施長期落實後,海洋垃圾減少、生態受損情形改善,並帶動更永續的生活方式。

寫作時以清楚、直接的句子為主,並使用 First、In addition、If these efforts continue 等銜接語,讓段落之間的因果與順序明確。

參考作文

A Cleaner Taiwan Begins with Less Plastic

Plastic pollution is one of Taiwan’s serious environmental problems. Every day, people use plastic bags, cups, and food containers for only a few minutes. Much of this waste is difficult to recycle, and some of it eventually reaches rivers and the ocean. Marine animals may mistake plastic for food or become trapped in it. The damage affects not only wildlife but also the health of coastal communities.

Taiwan can address this problem through cooperation among the government, businesses, and the public. First, the government should reduce the dist

第 1 題2 分

Several stylish ____ can be found on the chairs on display, even though one could easily recognize the prototype.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考「字義辨析」與「上下文判讀」。空格位於複數名詞的位置,前有 Several stylish(幾種時髦的),後文則說雖然仍能輕易辨認出原型,暗示展示的椅子是以原型為基礎做出的不同款式。

解題方法

先看搭配與語意:

  • several 後接可數名詞複數。
  • stylish variations 表示「時髦的變化款式」。
  • prototype 是「原型、原始設計」。句意是:展示的椅子上可以看到幾種時髦的變化款式,雖然仍很容易辨認出其原型。

因此空格應填 variations。

第 2 題2 分

Our manager often meditates for about twenty minutes right in his office; afterwards, one could clearly see that he has this ____ look on his face.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考形容詞的字義與詞性。空格前有指示形容詞 this,後面接名詞 look,空格應填能修飾 look 的形容詞。語意上,主管冥想後臉上呈現的神情應是「容光煥發的、神采奕奕的」。

解題方法

先看句型:this ____ look,空格要填形容詞。再依上下文判斷,冥想約二十分鐘之後,他臉上的神情應呈現明亮、有精神的樣子,因此選 radiant,意為「容光煥發的、光彩照人的」。

句意:我們的經理常在辦公室裡冥想約二十分鐘;之後,你會清楚看見他臉上帶著容光煥發的神情。

第 3 題2 分

The robber ____ ran into the police when he was just about to turn around a corner where he was trying to escape with his raid.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考副詞的詞義與語境搭配。空格位於主詞 The robber 與動詞 ran into 之間,應填入能描述強盜如何遇上警察的副詞。

incidentally 意為「偶然地、碰巧地」,符合強盜正準備轉過街角逃跑時,意外遇上警察的情境。

解題方法

先抓句意:強盜正想帶著搶來的財物逃跑,快要轉過街角時,卻遇上警察。這不是強盜刻意去找警察,也不是在描述相遇的程度或態度;最合適的是「偶然碰上」。

句中 run into someone 在此表示「碰到、遇上某人」,不是「跑進某人身上」。因此空格應選表示「偶然地」的副詞。

選項分析

  • (A) immensely:「極大地、非常地」,常用來修飾程度或規模,例如 immensely popular(非常受歡迎)。

第 4 題2 分

Chemotherapy did not make John feel better. Instead, his health started to ____ soon after.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考常見動詞的詞義,以及依上下文判斷正面或負面語意。句意為:「化學治療沒有讓 John 感覺好一點;相反地,他的健康狀況很快就開始 ____。」前後以 Instead 表示轉折,空格應填入表示健康狀況「惡化」的動詞。

解題方法

先抓住關鍵線索 did not make John feel better(沒有讓 John 感覺好轉)和 Instead(相反地)。既然治療未改善他的狀況,後句便應描述健康變差,因此選擇意為「惡化」的 deteriorate。句型 started to + 原形動詞,四個選項都符合原形形式;判斷關鍵在詞義與上下文。

The journalist was finally caught ____ all the stories he had made up for the newspaper he worked for.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考「動詞字義」與「語境判斷」。句子描述記者被抓到捏造他為報社編寫的故事;空格應填表示「捏造、編造」的動詞 fabricate。句型為 be caught + V-ing,表示「被抓到正在做某事」。

解題方法

先看語境線索:stories he had made up 意為「他編造的故事」,已直接提示記者做的是「捏造故事」。再配合 was finally caught(終於被抓到),空格需要填入符合「捏造」意思的現在分詞。

fabricate 意為「捏造、虛構」,其現在分詞為 fabricating,符合句意與 be caught + V-ing 的句型。

全句可譯為:「這名記者終於因為捏造他任職報社的各種報導而被抓到。」

第 6 題2 分

Even in the face of personal ____ , she does not see herself as totally defeated. She does what she can to make the world a better place.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查單字在語境中的意思,以及名詞與上下文的搭配。句子提到她雖然面對個人的某種處境,仍不認為自己完全被擊敗,並盡力讓世界變得更好。空格應填入帶有「困境、逆境」之意的名詞。

解題方法

先看轉折語氣:Even in the face of 表示「即使面對……」,後句 does not see herself as totally defeated(不認為自己完全被擊敗)也暗示她遭遇了不利處境。因此,空格需要能表示艱難或不幸的詞。

adversity 是「逆境、困境」,符合上下文。全句可譯為:「即使面對個人的逆境,她也不認為自己徹底被擊敗。她盡己所能,讓世界變得更美好。」

第 7 題2 分

Although many people still view Bosnia with ____ , its dramatic landscapes and singular history are making it an increasingly popular destination.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考「字義判斷」與「上下文語意」。句子描述人們對波士尼亞的既有看法,以及其壯麗景觀和獨特歷史正使它成為愈來愈受歡迎的旅遊目的地。空格應填入表示「恐懼、惶惶不安」的名詞,才能呈現「原先有所顧慮,現在逐漸受歡迎」的轉折。

解題方法

先看句意轉折:Although 表示「雖然」,前後形成對比。前半句說許多人仍以某種態度看待波士尼亞;後半句則說它正日益受到旅客青睞。因此,空格應帶有負面、戒慎或畏懼的意味。trepidation 表示「恐懼、惶惶不安」,符合句意。

全句可譯為:「雖然許多人仍對波士尼亞心存畏懼,但它壯麗的景觀和獨特的歷史,正使它成為愈來愈受歡迎的旅遊目的地。」

解題方法

先看句意:目前拿到的是一份尚待確認、之後會定案的活動時程表。形容詞應表示「暫定的、暫行的」,因此選 tentative。

When traveling along the coast, we ____ across the ruins of an old fort and enjoyed the historical site.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考片語 stumble across/upon,意思是「偶然發現、意外遇見」。句中提到沿海旅行時遇見一座古堡遺跡,並參觀這處歷史遺址,語意上是意外發現,且 stumble 與 across 搭配自然。

解題方法

先看空格後的 across,再判斷前後語意。句子描述旅行途中碰上古堡遺跡,並享受參觀歷史景點的過程,因此應選表示「偶然發現」的動詞片語 stumble across。句子使用過去式,stumble 的過去式為 stumbled。

選項分析

  • (A) sneaked:sneak 意為「偷偷地走、溜進」,常見搭配如 sneak into。sneaked across the ruins 會變成「偷偷穿越遺跡」,不符合「偶然發現」的語意。

Your visa expired 7 months ago. It is not ____ anymore. You need to apply for a new one.

核心觀念

本題考「簽證是否仍有效」的語意判斷。valid 是形容詞,意為「有效的、具效力的」;expire 表示「到期、失效」。簽證已在 7 個月前到期,因此不再有效,句意也指出需要重新申請。

解題方法

先看前句提供的線索:Your visa expired 7 months ago.(你的簽證 7 個月前到期了。)後句的 not ____ anymore 表示「不再……」,空格應填入能描述簽證效力的形容詞。符合語意與常見搭配的是 not valid anymore,即「不再有效」。

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查字彙辨義與語境搭配。空格前有 a music,後文提到學生受邀在台上演奏鋼琴;最符合情境的字是 recital,意為「演奏會、獨奏會」。

解題方法

先看前後文線索:學校舉辦音樂活動,學生被選中演奏鋼琴,接著走上舞台演出。因此,空格應填能表示音樂演出的活動名稱。

句意為:「那一年,學校舉辦了一場音樂演奏會,我是獲選演奏鋼琴的學生之一。」

解題方法

先抓住句中的線索:tears(眼淚)、uncontrollably(不受控制地)及 down my face(沿著臉流下)。能自然表達眼淚流淌的動詞是 stream;with tears streaming down my face 是常見搭配,意為「眼淚不斷流過我的臉」。

Beethoven's “Für Elise” had never been played so ____ fast before or since.

句意是:「貝多芬的〈給愛麗絲〉以前或以後都不曾被彈得如此__快。」應選能修飾副詞 fast、表達演奏速度極快的字。

解題方法

先看語意線索:敘述者跌倒後仍忍著淚水走到鋼琴前演奏,並以「這首曲子從未被彈得如此快」帶出她急著完成演奏的情景。因此空格需要表示「異常地、快得驚人地」的副詞。

fiendishly 原意與「魔鬼般」相關,引申為「極度地、異常地」,可用來加強 fast 的程度,符合句意。

In later years I was reminded of this experience from time to time. During my fourth year as an assistant professor at the University of California at Berkeley, I won a ____ teaching award.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考英文字義與上下文判讀,空格需符合「在學校舉辦的活動」及故事情境。關鍵線索是敘述者上台表演時跌倒,觀眾出言嘲諷;這段經驗使她不再害怕遭人嘲笑。

解題方法

題幹提到學校舉辦活動,並接著說敘述者被選去彈鋼琴,因此第一個空格應填表示「音樂會」或「音樂表演」的字。四個選項中,只有 ridicule 與「嘲笑、奚落」有關,可與觀眾的侮辱性發言及後文「不再害怕」的語意呼應。

選項分析

  • (A) research:研究、調查。常見搭配如 conduct research(進行研究),不表示音樂會或公開表演,也不符合遭人嘲笑的情境。
  • (B) rigor:嚴謹、嚴格;也可指艱苦或嚴酷。與音樂活動及「害怕被嘲笑」的語意均不相符。

核心觀念

本題考查字彙辨義與搭配。空格位於「teaching award」之前,須選能修飾該名詞、表示「傑出、有聲望」的形容詞。

解題方法

句意是:作者在加州大學柏克萊分校擔任助理教授第四年時,獲得一項「傑出的教學獎」。因此選用 distinguished,搭配 teaching award,表示「傑出教學獎」或「知名的教學獎」。

選項分析

  • (A) distinguished:正確。 distinguished 作形容詞,表示「傑出的、卓越的、知名的」,可修飾 teaching award。

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查片語動詞 look after 的意思,以及如何依照上下文選出符合語意的選項。

look after 是「照顧、照料」的意思。文中談到寵物主人重視寵物的健康與福祉,因此空格應填入表示「照顧寵物福祉」的片語。

解題方法

空格前後是:

their mission in life becomes ____ their pet’s well-being

可將句意理解為:「他們人生的使命成了__寵物的福祉,並確保寵物健康、活躍。」

後文提到寵物主人想知道寵物獨自在家時的活動,並使用智慧項圈追蹤活動、觀察健康與運動狀況,進一步呼應「照顧寵物福祉」。因此應選 looking after。

選項分析

  • (A) looking after:正確。 look after 表示「照顧、照料」。looking after their pet’s well-being 即「照顧寵物的福祉」,符合全文主旨。

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考單字在上下文中的語意與搭配。空格所在句為:

their mission in life becomes ____ their pet’s well-being 他們人生的使命變成 ____ 寵物的福祉

關鍵是 their pet’s well-being(寵物的福祉)。此處需要表示「照料、關注並掌握寵物狀況」的動詞,且後文多次提到追蹤寵物活動、觀察健康與運動習慣,呼應 monitor「監測、密切觀察」。

解題方法

先依句意判斷空格需要的詞義,再檢查選項是否能與 well-being 搭配:

  • monitor someone’s well-being:監測、留意某人的身心狀況,語意通順。
  • 後文又提到智慧項圈能追蹤寵物活動、觀察健康,與「監測寵物福祉」的主旨一致。

因此空格應填 monitoring,即選項 (C) monitor 的動名詞形式。

The ____ in technology have made the relationship between pets and their owners more convenient and accessible.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考字義辨析與上下文詞彙判斷。空格前的 wearable 是「可穿戴的」,後面需要接一個能指稱「裝置、器具」的名詞,才能說明智慧項圈是什麼。

解題方法

前文介紹名為 smart collar 的新科技,後文接著說明它能讓飼主追蹤寵物活動、觀察健康與運動習慣。因此,空格應填入表示「裝置」的 device:

This wearable device enables pet owners to follow their pets’ activities. 這種可穿戴裝置讓飼主能追蹤寵物的活動。

搭配語法也正確:wearable 作形容詞修飾單數可數名詞 device。

For most pet lovers, pets are parts of the family. For some, pets are even more important than family members. They see pets as indispensable partners, and spoil and love them as much as or more than parents do their kids. Therefore, their mission in life becomes ____ their pet’s well-being, and making sure they stay healthy and active.

For instance, pet lovers often wish to ____ what their pets do when they are away. In order to ____ their pets, a new technology called a “smart collar” was developed. This wearable ____ enables pet owners to follow their pets’ activities. It can also observe pets’ health and exercise habits. Voyce Health Monitor, which collects health information about a dog, is an example.

In addition to following pets’ behavior and gathering pets’ health information, some products feature a microphone and built-in speaker which allow pet owners to communicate with their pets when they are not present. The ____ in technology have made the relationship between pets and their owners more convenient and accessible.

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查英文單字在上下文中的語意判斷。最後一句談到科技讓寵物與飼主之間的關係更方便、更容易接觸,因此空格應填入表示「進步、發展」的名詞。

解題方法

先看空格後的介系詞片語 in technology,再看後文的 have made ... more convenient and accessible(使……更方便、更容易接觸)。句意是「科技的__使飼主與寵物之間的關係更便利」,語意上應是科技的進步帶來這些便利。

advances in technology 是常見搭配,意為「科技進步」。

選項分析

  • (A) advances:進步、發展 符合上下文。The advances in technology 指「科技的進步」,也能合理解釋科技如何讓飼主遠端追蹤寵物活動、健康狀況,並與寵物溝通。

A Tokyo-bound flight made a U-turn while flying over the Pacific Ocean and returned to Los Angeles because one passenger, for reasons still unclear, had boarded the wrong flight. All Nippon Airways Flight 175 left the Los Angeles International Airport at about 11:30 a.m. Tuesday Pacific Standard Time, spent about eight hours in the air and landed back in California just after 7:30 p.m., majorly inconveniencing its passengers, including model Chrissy Teigen, who live-tweeted the “flight to nowhere” to her 9.2 million followers. Teigen, who was traveling with her husband John Legend, wrote on Twitter that the plane was turned around about four hours into the flight. The Twitter world watched in amusement as Teigen kept her followers updated on the ordeal, which apparently involved an hours-long wait at the airport, unanswered questions, some police presence and a microwavable Ramen meal.

The incident involved two brothers, one of whom was an authorized All Nippon Airways, or ANA, passenger while the other had a United Airlines ticket, Transportation Security Administration spokesman Mike England said.

The brothers, who were not identified, went through security screening without incident and had valid passports and boarding passes. Both were headed to Tokyo and were scheduled to leave around the same time. Both ended up on the ANA flight even though only one of them was an authorized passenger. It remains unclear how that happened. The airline said the decision to turn around was part of a security procedure.

Weather concerns, mechanical problems, medical issues and terrorist threats are among the common reasons for diverting a plane. Others are unusual, but not unheard of.

In 2015, for example, a British Airways flight flew back to Heathrow Airport just 30 minutes into the seven-hour flight to Dubai because of an overwhelming odor coming from the lavatory. A similar incident happened earlier this year, when a SpiceJet flight headed to New Delhi was diverted because of a “very foul smell” coming from the lavatory.

What is the main subject of this passage?

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查英文閱讀理解中的「主旨判斷」。作答時要掌握全文反覆談論的核心事件與資訊,避免被文中的人物、乘客反應或個別細節帶離主題。

解題方法

首段描述一架飛往東京的航班因有乘客搭錯飛機,飛行途中折返洛杉磯;後文補充乘客搭錯的經過、航空公司的安全程序,以及其他因異味而折返或改道的航班案例。這些內容共同聚焦於不尋常的航班折返或改道,因此主旨是「不尋常的航班事件」。

選項分析

  • (A) Airline customer complaints. 航空公司顧客抱怨。 文中提到乘客受到不便、在社群媒體上更新情況,但這些是事件的反應與細節,並非全文主旨。
  • **(B) Violent treatment. 暴力對待。

What is the main reason for the ANA flight to turn back to Los Angeles?

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查閱讀測驗中的主旨與原因判斷。作答時要抓住題目問句中的 the main reason(主要原因),並從文章中找出直接說明飛機返航原因的句子,避免被人物、事件細節或其他案例帶離主題。

解題方法

題幹首段指出,東京航班在飛越太平洋時折返洛杉磯,原因是「一名乘客搭錯班機」。後文進一步交代,兩名兄弟都搭上 ANA 班機,但其中一人持有的是 United Airlines 機票,並非該 ANA 航班的合格乘客;航空公司表示,返航是依據安全程序作出的決定。因此,返航的關鍵原因是有乘客搭錯班機,涉及航空安全程序。

選項分析

  • (A) The famous model Chrissy Teigen attracted 9.2 million followers on Twitter. 錯誤。Chrissy Teigen 和她的推文是事件受到關注的背景,並非飛機返航的原因。

  • **(B) The Security Administration Mike England needed to investigate the two br

Which of the following statements best describes the author's opinion about the flight turning back?

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查閱讀理解中的「作者態度判斷」。作答時要根據文章的敘述語氣與例證推論作者對飛機折返的看法,而不是只憑事件本身判斷合理與否。

文中提到,航空公司表示折返是安全程序的一部分;作者也指出,飛機改降或折返常見原因包括天候、機械、醫療及恐怖威脅,還列舉了因洗手間異味而折返的案例。這些內容呈現的是:折返可能造成旅客不便,原因也可能特殊,但航空安全程序仍會要求採取行動。

解題方法

先找出作者直接表達的評價,再看後文例子如何補充。首段以「majorly inconveniencing its passengers」(讓乘客大受不便)描述旅客受到的影響,並以「flight to nowhere」及乘客等待、問題未獲回答、吃微波拉麵等細節,帶出事件的荒謬與不便。

但文章沒有主張折返不該發生,也沒有要求乘客爭取權益。接著作者說,有些折返原因不尋常,但並非聞所未聞(“unusual, but not unheard of”),並舉出洗手間異味導致班機折返的例子。整體而言,折返事件聽來荒唐、令人不便,但仍是航空安全處置的一部分。

Which of the following reasons for diverting a plane has been mentioned in this passage?

核心觀念

本題考查閱讀理解中的「細節辨識」:從文章中找出明確提及的飛機返航原因。文中先說明飛機返航的常見原因包括天候、機械故障、醫療問題與恐怖威脅,接著舉例補充其他特殊原因,其中包括廁所散發異味。

解題方法

直接定位題目關鍵字 reasons for diverting a plane(飛機改道或返航的原因),再比對文章中列出的原因與例子。文末提到兩起因廁所異味而返航或改道的事件,因此「廁所問題」有文章依據。

What can be inferred from the passage?

這一題的完整詳解

核心觀念

本題考查閱讀理解中的推論題:答案須由文章內容合理推出,不能只因選項聽起來合理就選。文章描述飛機因乘客誤搭而返航,並列出航班改道的常見原因與其他特殊案例。

解題方法

先找出作者對航班改道原因的概括,再確認選項是否與原文的範圍和語氣一致。文中指出,天候、機械故障、醫療狀況及恐怖威脅是常見原因,其他原因雖較特殊,也並非沒有先例。這表示航班改道原因不只一種,且有些原因屬於特殊狀況;文章並未討論航空公司的優先目標、乘客應遵守的行為或補償金額。

選項分析

  • (A) Most causes of flight delay are beyond control of airlines. 「多數航班延誤原因超出航空公司控制」不符合文章。文中談的是飛機改道(diverting a plane),並列舉改道原因,沒有說明這些原因是否超出航空公司控制,也沒有比較各類原因所占比例。

  • (B) Passengers on board are aware of what they should not do. 「機上乘客知道哪些事不該做」無法由文章推出。
