113 移民特考三等 移民行政(選試越南文) 外國文(越南文兼試移民專業英文) 考古題詳解
第 一 題30 分
請將下列各段文字翻譯成中文。
(一) Trong bản báo cáo điều tra mới nhất của Cơ quan Giám sát Đài Loan tiết lộ rằng, chính quyền Đài Loan đã quyết định nới lỏng các tiêu chuẩn phê duyệt đối với chương trình “Định cư Đài Loan theo diện tay nghề” dành cho những người đến từ Hồng Kông kể từ giữa năm ngoái. Tiêu chuẩn mới này không còn yêu cầu người xin định cư cần phải có bằng cấp về trình độ chuyên môn cao hoặc làm các công việc có tay nghề cao, thì mới được chấp thuận cho định cư như trước đây nữa. Ngoài ra nếu họ có tài sản, tiền tiết kiệm hoặc thậm chí đã từng làm tình nguyện viên, thì cũng được xem xét chấp thuận cho định cư.
(二) Trong năm 2023, tỷ lệ trẻ sơ sinh tại Đài Loan chỉ có hơn 135.000 trẻ, đạt tới mức thấp kỷ lục. Điều này cho thấy vấn đề già hóa dân số ở Đài Loan đang ngày càng nghiêm trọng. Nhìn chung, hầu hết các nước phát triển và đang phát triển đều đang đối mặt với vấn đề xã hội già hóa dân số tăng nhanh, Nhật Bản cũng không ngoại lệ. Nhằm để giải quyết tình trạng thiếu hụt lao động do vấn đề già hóa dân số gây ra, chính phủ Nhật Bản một lần nữa đã nới lỏng chính sách nhập cư. Và đây là giải pháp mà theo các chuyên gia thì Đài Loan có thể học tập từ Nhật Bản.

核心觀念
本題測驗越南文段落的中譯能力,重點在於正確辨認句子主幹、時間與因果關係,以及移民政策、人口老化等相關詞彙。翻譯時應保留原文資訊,不增添原文沒有的判斷。
解題方法
先找出每段的主詞與主要動詞,再依語意將修飾語、時間背景及補充條件組織成通順的中文。越南文原句有些地方較像新聞轉述,中文可調整語序,但不能改變原意。
逐段翻譯
(一)
台灣監察機關最新的調查報告揭露,台灣政府自去年年中起,已決定放寬對香港人士適用的「技術移民台灣」計畫核准標準。新標準不再像過去一樣,要求申請定居者必須具備高等專業資格或從事高技術工作,才會獲准定居。此外,若申請人擁有資產、存款,甚至曾擔任志工,也會被納入考量並獲准定居。
(二)
2023年,台灣新生兒人數僅略高於13萬5,000人,創下歷史新低。這顯示台灣的人口老化問題日益嚴重。整體而言,多數已開發國家與開發中國家都面臨人口快速老化所帶來的社會問題,日本也不例外。為了解決人口老化造成的勞動力短缺,日本政府再次放寬移民政策。專家認為,這是台灣可以向日本借鏡的做法。
解題技巧與易錯處
- 辨認新聞報告的語意主幹:「báo cáo … tiết lộ rằng」是「報告揭露……」,後面的「chính quyền Đài Loan」才是「已決定放寬」的主詞。
第 二 題15 分
請將下列文字翻譯成越南文。
母親節是國際間共同的語言與節日,雖然不一定在相同月份,但都用愛表達對母親最真摯的感謝。內政部移民署新竹市服務站,除了與新住民共同歡慶母親節並對天下母親表達敬意,也再次提醒自 3 月起外國人逾期居(停)留罰鍰提高至新臺幣 1 萬元至 5 萬元。期望在臺的外來人口,不論任何身分與事由都能留意居留效期,別不小心逾期受罰讓親愛的媽媽擔心。

核心觀念
本題考越南文的段落翻譯,重點是掌握節慶與行政宣導文體的用語,並忠實呈現原文的情感語氣、機關名稱、罰鍰金額及提醒內容。本題不涉及法條適用或計算。
解題方法
先依語意將原文分成三層:母親節的共同意義、移民署服務站的慶祝與致意、逾期居(停)留罰鍰新制及提醒。翻譯時保留各層關係,並採正式、自然的越南文;其中「新住民」譯為 người dân nhập cư mới,「居(停)留」譯為 cư trú (tạm trú)。
參考譯文
Ngày của Mẹ là ngôn ngữ chung và ngày lễ chung của toàn thế giới. Tuy không nhất thiết được tổ chức vào cùng một tháng, nhưng ở đâu người ta cũng bày tỏ lòng biết ơn chân thành nhất đối với mẹ bằng tình yêu thương. Ngoài việc cùng người dân nhập cư mới vui mừng đón Ngày của Mẹ và bày tỏ lòng kính trọng đối với tất cả những người mẹ trên khắp thế giới, Trạm D

核心觀念
本題是越南文作文題,要求考生說明臺灣「就業金卡」政策,並提出個人看法。作答重點有兩部分:先介紹政策內容,再評估政策對臺灣產業與外國專業人才的影響。
就業金卡是臺灣為延攬外國專業人才所設計的制度,結合工作許可、居留簽證、外僑居留證及重入國許可。持卡人符合資格即可申請,不必先由特定雇主提出申請;卡片效期依核發情形為一至三年。相關制度依《外國專業人才延攬及僱用法》辦理。以下說明以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規及政策為準。
解題方法
作文可依「背景與目的 → 制度內容 → 優點與挑戰 → 個人結論」安排:
- 交代政策背景:臺灣的科技、數位、生技等產業需要專業人力,政府因此以就業金卡吸引國際人才。
- 說明制度特色:突出四證合一、可自行申請,以及工作選擇較有彈性的特點。
- 分析政策效果:從產業發展、人才交流及行政便利說明優點;再補充語言、文化適應與人才留任等配套需求。
- 提出平衡的個人看法:肯定政策方向,同時指出需要完善生活支持與職場環境,才能讓人才長期留臺。
題目問「你了解什麼」及「你的看法」,所以只列制度項目並不足夠;必須以自己的立場收束全文。
參考作答內容
第 1 題1 分
While TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) claimed the April-third earthquake did not have a major ____ on its production, it saw some disruption to its operations.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字與常見搭配。句意為:「台積電表示,4 月 3 日地震對其生產沒有造成重大__,但營運仍受到一些干擾。」空格需要填入能表示「影響」且可與 on 搭配的名詞。
解題方法
觀察句型 have an impact on + 名詞,意思是「對……造成影響」。空格前有 a major,後面接 on its production,因此應填入能構成此固定搭配的名詞 impact。
整句可譯為:「台積電表示,4 月 3 日地震對其生產沒有造成重大影響,但營運仍受到一些干擾。」
選項分析
- (A) satisfaction:滿意、滿足。常見搭配如 job satisfaction(工作滿意度),不能合理構成此處「對生產造成重大影響」的語意。
第 2 題1 分
Those who facilitate or aid foreigners to engage in activities in Taiwan that are inconsistent with the reasons of their permitted visit or residence shall be ____ to a fine of NT1 million.
核心觀念
本題考固定搭配 be subject to + 名詞,表示「受……約束、須承受……」。句中 Those who facilitate or aid ... 是主詞,後面的 to a fine 說明違規者須承受的處罰,因此空格應填 subject。
題目內容涉及移民法規的罰鍰規定,以下以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。
解題方法
先辨認句型:
shall be ____ to a fine 應受……罰鍰處分
英文表示「應受某種處罰」,常用 be subject to a fine。因此可直接依搭配判斷,不必逐字翻譯整句。
句意是:協助或幫助外國人在臺從事與其許可停留或居留原因不符活動者,處新臺幣 20 萬元以上、100 萬元以下罰鍰。
選項分析
第 3 題1 分
Before arriving in Taiwan, please ____ an online immigration arrival card on the website of the National Immigration Agency.
核心觀念
本題考英文動詞搭配與字義辨析。句意是:「抵達臺灣前,請在內政部移民署網站上__線上入國登記表。」空格需要填入「填寫、完成」表格的動詞。
解題方法
先看受詞 an online immigration arrival card(線上入國登記表)。英文常用 complete a form/card 表示「填妥、完成表格」,因此空格應填 complete。
句首的 Before arriving in Taiwan 表示「抵達臺灣之前」;please 後接原形動詞,四個選項皆為原形,須再依語意與搭配判斷。
選項分析
第 4 題1 分
The maximum duration of prohibition from entering Taiwan for foreigners who overstay beyond the ____ period of visit or residence in Taiwan has been revised from 3 years to 7 years.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字的語意與搭配。句意是:「對於逾越在臺停留或居留的__期間的外國人,禁止入境最長期間已由 3 年修正為 7 年。」空格須填表示「經許可、核准」的形容詞,修飾 period of visit or residence。
解題方法
先抓句子的關鍵搭配:外國人須遵守主管機關核准的停留或居留期間;逾期即屬超過「核准期間」。英文常用 authorized period 表示「經授權或核准的期間」,因此空格填 authorized。
選項分析
- (A) improved:意為「改善的、改進的」,不表示停留或居留期間經核准,語意不合。
第 5 題1 分
For foreigners who have no certain domicile or residence in Taiwan, the National Immigration Agency of the Ministry of the Interior may order such foreigners to exit the State voluntarily within ten days prior to the forcible ____.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字與移民行政法規語境。題幹描述:對在臺灣沒有確定住所或居所的外國人,內政部移民署得命其在強制「____」前十日內自行離境。關鍵是辨別與強制離境相關的法律用語。
涉及法規時,以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。題幹所述情形對應《入出國及移民法》關於外國人強制驅逐出國前,命其限期自行出國的規定;英文常用 deportation 表示「驅逐出境」。
解題方法
先讀題幹的語意搭配:forcible ____ 指「強制的驅逐出境」。接著檢視選項,找出能表示將外國人依法強制送離國境的名詞。此處應填 deportation,整句意為「在強制驅逐出境前十日內,自行離境」。
選項分析
第 6 題1 分
Nationals without household registration who hold a valid R.O.C. (Taiwan) biometric passport and possess a return ticket are ____ from applying for an entry permit.
核心觀念
本題考查形容詞 exempt 的用法與固定搭配。be exempt from + 名詞/動名詞 表示「免於……、獲豁免不必……」。
句意是:未在臺灣設有戶籍的國民,持有效的中華民國(臺灣)晶片護照並持有回程機票者,免於申請入境許可。
解題方法
先看空格後的 from applying for。表示「免於做某事」的固定搭配是 be exempt from + V-ing,因此空格應填 exempt。
句型結構如下:
Nationals ... are exempt from applying for an entry permit. ……者免於申請入境許可。
選項分析
第 7 題1 分
Law enforcement agencies have ____ 11 people who ran a food fraud operation that produced more than 68,000 gallons of olive oil unfit for consumption.
核心觀念
本題考「執法機關逮捕犯罪嫌疑人」的動詞搭配,以及四個選項的字義辨析。句意為:執法機關已逮捕 11 名人士;這些人經營食品詐欺,生產了超過 68,000 加侖不適合食用的橄欖油。
解題方法
先看空格後的受詞 11 people,再依句意判斷執法機關對這些人採取的行動。文中提到食品詐欺及不適合食用的橄欖油,合理的執法行動是「逮捕」,因此應選表示「逮捕」的 arrested。
選項分析
- (A) occupied:意為「佔據、占用」,如 occupy a building(佔據一棟建築物)。不表示逮捕人犯,與句意不合。
- (B) rested:意為「休息」,如 rest after work(下班後休息)。
第 8 題1 分
On February 14th, a Chinese fishing boat overturned while being chased by the Taiwanese coast guards, killing two Chinese fishermen on board. While ____ between Taiwan and China soared, disinformation about the incident also took off.
核心觀念
本題考查單字在上下文中的語意與常見搭配。句子描述中國漁船翻覆事件造成台灣與中國之間的關係緊張,並提及事件相關的錯誤訊息也開始擴散。空格後的 between Taiwan and China 提示,空格要填入能表示雙方關係狀態的名詞。
解題方法
先看句意:「台灣海巡追逐中國漁船期間,漁船翻覆,船上兩名中國漁民死亡。台灣與中國之間的__升高,與此同時,事件相關的錯誤訊息也迅速傳播。」
英文常用 tension between A and B 表示「A 與 B 之間的緊張情勢」;情勢升高則可說 tensions soared。因此,空格應填 tension。
選項分析
- (A) peace 和平:錯誤。 peace between Taiwan and China 指台灣與中國之間的和平,與事件造成緊張升高的語境相反。
- **(B) tension 緊張、緊張情勢:正確。
第 9 題1 分
For any applicant who is unable to pay the fee, he/she may request a fee ____ by submitting his/her case for further consideration.
核心觀念
本題考固定搭配 fee waiver,意為「費用豁免」或「免繳費用」。句中指出申請人無力支付費用,得提出個案供進一步審查,因此要填入表示「免除費用」的名詞。
解題方法
先看前文 unable to pay the fee(無法支付費用),再看後文 by submitting his/her case for further consideration(提交個案以供進一步審查)。整句語意是:無力繳費的申請人,可以提出申請,請求免除該費用。英文常用搭配為 request a fee waiver。
選項分析
第 10 題1 分
Remember to ____ your address with this office to ensure that you can receive all correspondence and notifications from us in a timely manner.
核心觀念
本題考「動詞與受詞的搭配」及語境判讀。句意是:「請記得向本辦公室__您的地址,以確保您能及時收到我們寄發的所有信件與通知。」空格後的 your address 是「您的地址」,後半句說明更新地址的目的,因此需要表示「更新、變更資料」的動詞。
解題方法
先依句意判斷:為了能及時收到信件與通知,地址必須是最新資料。因此空格應填 update,形成常見搭配 update your address with this office,意為「向本辦公室更新您的地址」。
選項分析
- (A) fill:意為「填寫、填滿」。常見說法是 fill in a form(填寫表格),不說 fill your address with this office;文法搭配與句意皆不合。
- (B) retrieve:意為「取回、檢索」。

Young children may start to ____ the words on the page with the words they are hearing and the ideas these words represent.
核心觀念
本題考英文動詞搭配與語意。句意為:幼童聽大人朗讀時,會開始把書頁上的文字和自己聽到的詞語,以及這些詞語代表的概念「連結起來」。
解題方法
空格後方是 the words on the page with the words they are hearing,句型為 associate A with B,意為「把 A 與 B 聯想/連結起來」。代入後,句意與文法皆通順。
選項分析
- (A) associate:正確。 associate A with B 表示「將 A 與 B 聯想或連結」,符合把頁面文字與聽到的詞語及其意義相連結的語意。

In order to learn comprehension ____ , students need modeling, practice, and feedback.
核心觀念
本題考 字義辨析與上下文判讀。句子中的 comprehension 是「理解、閱讀理解」;空格後的 students need modeling, practice, and feedback 表示學生需要教師示範、練習與回饋,才能學會一套閱讀理解的方法,因此空格應填「策略」(strategies)。
解題方法
先看空格前後的搭配:learn comprehension ____,再用後文確認語意。題幹提到預覽文章、運用先備知識、預測內容、辨認主旨、摘要,以及提問與回答,這些都是協助讀者理解文本的閱讀理解策略。因此,comprehension strategies 是最符合全文脈絡的搭配。
選項分析
- (A) restrictions:限制、約束。comprehension restrictions 意為「理解上的限制」,與示範、練習及回饋所教導的方法

解題方法
先抓住句意中的因果關係:學生運用先前已具備的知識,作為理解新資訊的基礎。四個選項中,只有 acquired 有「獲得的、習得的」之意,能與 knowledge 搭配,表達透過學習累積的知識。

核心觀念
本題考查字彙在語境中的意思。作答時要看空格前後的因果與搭配:學生根據對相似主題的既有知識,對接下來要讀到的內容形成什麼樣的想法?
解題方法
句子為:
when students make predictions about the text they are about to read, this exercise sets up ____ based on their prior knowledge about similar topics.
學生在閱讀前「預測」文本內容,並以相似主題的既有知識為依據;因此,這項練習會建立對文本內容的「預期」。expectations 正好符合句意,且常見搭配為 set up expectations(建立預期)。

The United States has more immigrants than any other country in the world. Today, more than 40 million people living in the US were born in another country, accounting for about one-fifth of the world’s migrants. Also, the population of immigrants is very diverse, with just about every country in the world represented among US immigrants. Pew Research Center regularly publishes statistical portraits of the nation’s foreign-born population, which include historical trends since 1960. These portraits provide more details on the US immigrant population.
The US foreign-born population reached a record 44.8 million in 2018. Since 1965, when US immigration laws replaced a national quota system, the number of immigrants living in the US has more than quadrupled. Immigrants today account for 13.7% of the US population, nearly triple the share (4.8%) in 1970. However, today’s immigrant share remains below the record 14.8% share in 1890 when 9.2 million immigrants lived in the US.
Most immigrants (77%) are in the country legally, while almost a quarter are unauthorized, according to new Pew Research Center estimates based on census data adjusted for undercount. In 2017, 45% were naturalized US citizens, 27% of immigrants were permanent residents, and 5% were temporary residents in 2017. Another 23% of all immigrants were unauthorized immigrants. From 1990 to 2007, the unauthorized immigrant population was more than tripled in size – from 3.5 million to a record high of 12.2 million in 2007. By 2017, that number had declined by 1.7 million, or 14%. There were 10.5 million unauthorized immigrants in the US in 2017, accounting for 3.2% of the nation’s population. The decline in the unauthorized immigrant population is due largely to a fall in the number from Mexico – the single largest group of unauthorized immigrants in the US.
What is the best title for this passage?
核心觀念
本題考查英文閱讀中的「主旨與標題判斷」。標題應涵蓋全文主要內容,而非只對應其中一個細節。本文整理美國移民人口的統計概況,包含移民人口規模與歷史變化、占總人口比例、移民身分分布,以及未經授權移民人口的變化。
解題方法
先看文章開頭與各段主題句,再整理全文反覆說明的核心:
- 第一段介紹美國移民人口的規模與多元來源。
- 第二段說明移民人口的歷史數量與占比。
- 第三段說明移民的法律身分比例,以及未經授權移民人口的變化。
三段共同呈現的是「美國移民人口的統計發現與概況」,因此應選能涵蓋各段內容的標題;只提到多元背景、移民原因或權利義務,都不足以概括全文。
選項分析
- (A) Diverse Backgrounds of Immigrants.(移民的多元背景):文章提及美國移民來自世界各地,但這只是開頭的一項特徵,無法涵蓋後文的歷史統計、身分分布及未經授權移民人口變化,標題範圍過窄。

From 1990 to 2007, the unauthorized immigrant population was more than tripled in size – from 3.5 million to a record high of 12.2 million in 2007. By 2017, that number had declined by 1.7 million, or 14%. There were 10.5 million unauthorized immigrants in the US in 2017, accounting for 3.2% of the nation’s population. The decline in the unauthorized immigrant population is due largely to a fall in the number from Mexico – the single largest group of unauthorized immigrants in the US.
What is the focus of the final paragraph?
核心觀念
本題考查英文閱讀中的「段落主旨判斷」。作答時要掌握最後一段的主要內容,並用各選項比對段落的核心,而不是只看到單一細節就選答案。
解題方法
最後一段先概述移民的法律身分分布:77% 合法居留,其中包含歸化公民、永久居民及臨時居民;另有 23% 為未經許可的移民。接著說明未經許可移民人口從 1990 年增加至 2007 年高峰,之後至 2017 年下降,並指出下降主要與來自墨西哥的人數減少有關。
整段的中心是美國移民的合法身分與未經許可移民人口變化;墨西哥因素只出現在段末,是解釋人口下降的細節。
選項分析
- (A) The legal status of immigrants in the US. 正確。段落主要呈現合法與未經許可移民的比例、不同合法身分類別,以及未經許可移民人口的變化,符合「美國移民的法律身分」。

【題組共用題幹】
The United States has more immigrants than any other country in the world. Today, more than 40 million people living in the US were born in another country, accounting for about one-fifth of the world’s migrants. Also, the population of immigrants is very diverse, with just about every country in the world represented among US immigrants. Pew Research Center regularly publishes statistical portraits of the nation’s foreign-born population, which include historical trends since 1960. These portraits provide more details on the US immigrant population.
The US foreign-born population reached a record 44.8 million in 2018. Since 1965, when US immigration laws replaced a national quota system, the number of immigrants living in the US has more than quadrupled. Immigrants today account for 13.7% of the US population, nearly triple the share (4.8%) in 1970. However, today’s immigrant share remains below the record 14.8% share in 1890 when 9.2 million immigrants lived in the US.

The decline in the unauthorized immigrant population is due largely to a fall in the number from Mexico – the single largest group of unauthorized immigrants in the US.
According to the passage, what is the main contributor to the decline in the unauthorized immigrant population in 2017?
核心觀念
本題考英文閱讀理解,重點是辨認文章直接說明的「未獲授權移民人口下降的主要原因」。關鍵句指出,這項人口下降主要是因為來自墨西哥的人數減少;墨西哥人也是美國最大的未獲授權移民群體。
解題方法
先定位題目中的 the decline in the unauthorized immigrant population,再回到文章第三段尋找其原因。文中明確寫道,下降「主要是由於來自墨西哥的人數減少」(due largely to a fall in the number from Mexico)。因此,選項中描述墨西哥移民減少者為正解。
選項分析
- (A) The implementation of new immigration laws in the US. 美國實施新的移民法規。文章提到 1965 年移民法取代國家配額制度,之後移民總數增加;這不是文中所述 2017 年未獲授權移民人口下降的主要原因。

According to the passage, which of the following statistics is NOT correct?
核心觀念
本題考查英文閱讀理解中的數字比對與同義改寫。作答時要以題幹提供的統計資料為準,逐項核對選項中的年份、比例與變化幅度;題幹沒有涉及法條。
解題方法
題幹指出,自 1965 年美國移民法取代國籍配額制度以來,在美移民人數「增加超過四倍」(more than quadrupled)。「增加超過四倍」表示人數超過原來的四倍,不等於「成長六倍」;選項 A 把增幅說成超過六倍,與題幹不符。
其餘選項可直接核對題幹中的明確數據:1970 年移民占美國人口 4.8%;2017 年未經授權移民占所有移民 23%,並占美國總人口 3.2%。
