113 原住民特考四等 機械工程 基礎能力測驗(作文、英文及中華民國憲法) 考古題詳解
第 甲 題40 分
作文題目:
在人生的賽道上,有人相信「要贏在起跑點」,也有人相信「能夠堅持才會是贏家」。其實人生到達終點的路十分漫長,其中總有許多休息站,可供我們暫時調整後再次出發。此外,每個人的天賦也不盡相同,有人適合短跑衝刺,有人則擅於比拼耐力。
因此,在前進的過程中,有時覺得自己可以快一點,那就把速度拉高些;但有力量不太夠時,便可緩慢步行休息一下,看看遠處的風景,甚至調整目標。總之依照自己的步伐,調整好速度,堅持下去不放棄,努力往目標邁進,終究能到達目的地。
請以「調整自己的生命速度」為題,撰寫文章一篇,依據自己的經驗與體會加以闡述:為了什麼要調整自己的生命前行速度?在調整過程中又對自己有哪些了解以及體悟?
登入後即可作答並保存紀錄。
核心觀念
本題是作文題,考查考生能否掌握題目寓意,並結合個人經驗,說明「為什麼需要調整生命前行速度」以及「調整過程帶來哪些自我認識與體悟」。
題目以人生比喻賽道:起跑快慢不等於最終成敗,適合自己的速度、適時休息與調整目標,才能走得長遠。因此,文章的核心不是一味求快,也不是只強調堅持,而是懂得依照自己的能力、處境與目標調整步伐,並在前進中保持方向。
解題方法
可採用「提出觀點—結合經驗—整理體悟」的架構:
- 提出觀點:說明生命不是百米衝刺,而是需要長期前進的旅程。盲目追趕他人,容易忽略自己的狀態與真正目標。
- 結合經驗:選擇一段具體經歷,例如準備考試、工作與家庭兼顧、學習新技能或面對挫折。交代當時的目標、遇到的壓力,以及如何調整安排。
- 說明自我了解:透過調整,發現自己的優勢、限制與需要,例如適合分階段完成任務、需要規律休息,或必須先釐清目標。
- 收束體悟:指出調整速度不是放棄,而是為了走得更穩、更遠;堅持也不是固守原路,而是持續朝重要的方向前進。
參考範文
調整自己的生命速度
人生像一條漫長的道路,有時平坦,有時崎嶇。年輕時,我曾以為只要跑得比別人快,就能先抵達理想的終點。後來才明白,每個人的起點、能力和責任都不相同;若只顧著追趕別人的步伐,可能跑得疲憊,卻忘了自己真正想去的地方。調整生命速度,不是懈怠,而是為了讓每一步都走得踏實,也走得長久。
準備重要考試時,我曾替自己排下緊湊的讀書計畫,認為每天投入愈多時間,成果就會愈好。起初,我確實進步得很快,也因此對自己充滿信心。然而,連續幾週沒有休息後,精神逐漸疲倦,讀過的內容也不容易記住。

More and more countries aim to significantly _____ their carbon emission for a better living environment.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字在語境中的意思,以及動詞與受詞的搭配。句意為:「越來越多國家為了打造更好的生活環境,目標是大幅__碳排放。」carbon emission 指「碳排放」,為改善環境,合理的目標是減少排放。
解題方法
先抓句中的目的語 for a better living environment(為了更好的生活環境),再判斷哪個動詞能表達改善環境的方向。significantly 意為「大幅地」,修飾空格中的動詞;整句需要表示「大幅減少碳排放」。

第 2 題2 分
Amy always _____ admiringly at John whenever he talks about science.
核心觀念
本題考「動詞搭配」與字義辨析。句中 admiringly 是副詞,表示「帶著欽佩地」;空格要填入能表示「凝視、注視」的動詞,構成「帶著欽佩的眼神凝視」。
解題方法
先看句意:Amy 每當 John 談論科學時,就會「帶著欽佩的神情看著」他。選項中,gaze at someone 表示「凝視某人」,可與 admiringly 搭配,符合句意及句型:
Amy always gazes admiringly at John whenever he talks about science.
主詞 Amy 是第三人稱單數,且句子使用現在簡單式,因此動詞要加 -s,選項 gazes 形式也正確。
選項分析
第 3 題2 分
In addition to the GDP, the prosperity of a nation should be _____ in terms of the health and happiness of its people.
核心觀念
本題考 動詞搭配與語意判斷。句意是:「除了 GDP 之外,一個國家的繁榮也應該以人民的健康與幸福來__。」
- measure 表示「衡量、評估」,常用搭配為 measure A in terms of B,即「以 B 作為衡量 A 的標準」。
- in terms of 在此表示「就……而言;以……為衡量標準」。
解題方法
先確認句子的主詞與語意:主詞是 the prosperity of a nation(一個國家的繁榮),後接 in terms of the health and happiness of its people(以人民的健康與幸福為標準)。因此空格需要填入表示「衡量」的動詞,才能構成語意通順的句子:
一個國家的繁榮,除了看 GDP,也應以人民的健康與幸福來衡量。
選項分析
第 4 題2 分
The company offered a financial _____ to employees who achieved their sales targets.
核心觀念
本題考「字義與固定搭配」。句中 financial _____ 指公司提供給達成銷售目標的員工一項「財務上的獎勵或誘因」,因此要選能表示獎勵、刺激的名詞 incentive。
解題方法
先抓句意:公司提供某種財務上的事物給達成銷售目標的員工。再看搭配,financial incentive 常指「財務誘因、金錢獎勵」,例如獎金或佣金,符合達成目標後獲得的回饋。
句意為:「公司向達成銷售目標的員工提供財務獎勵。」
選項分析
- (A) incident:事件、事故。financial incident 並非此處表示員工獎勵的自然搭配,且「事件」不符合句意。
- (B) inclusion:納入、包含。
第 5 題2 分
Everyone can get a customized mug at the end of the meeting, by _____ of the host institution.
核心觀念
本題考固定搭配 by courtesy of,意為「承蒙……好意提供」、「由……慷慨提供」。句子中的 by courtesy of the host institution 表示客製化馬克杯由主辦機構提供。
解題方法
先看空格前的 by,再依句意判斷後面需要哪個名詞。全句表示「每個人都可以在會議結束時拿到一個客製化馬克杯,__主辦機構提供」,因此應選能與 by 搭配,表示「蒙某方好意提供」的 courtesy。
選項分析
第 6 題2 分
The death rate from _____ has nearly been cut in half as a result of medical development.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字辨義與語意搭配。句子的意思是:「醫療發展使得因 _____ 導致的死亡率幾乎減半。」空格應填入一種可能造成死亡、且死亡率會受到醫療進步影響的疾病或健康狀況。
解題方法
先抓句子的關鍵字:death rate(死亡率)與 medical development(醫療發展)。再逐一代入選項,判斷哪個字能與「死亡率」形成合理的語意搭配。
選項分析
- (A) venues:
venue指活動或表演的「場地、會場」。death rate from venues意為「因場地造成的死亡率」,語意不通。 - (B) wages:
wage指「工資、薪資」。
第 7 題2 分
Students with hearing _____ mostly lip-read to some extent, so teachers must face them when they speak.
核心觀念
本題考「身心狀況」相關字彙,並須依句意選出能與 hearing 搭配、表示聽力受損的名詞。句意是:「有聽力__的學生大多在某種程度上會讀唇,因此老師說話時必須面向他們。」
解題方法
先看句意因果:學生會讀唇,所以老師要面向他們說話。空格應填表示「聽力受損」的詞,形成常見搭配 hearing impairment,即「聽力障礙/聽力受損」。
選項分析
- (A) endeavor:名詞,指「努力、嘗試」,也可作動詞「努力」。hearing endeavor 不符合句意,也不是表示聽力狀況的搭配。
- (B) flexibility:名詞,指「彈性、靈活性」。
第 8 題2 分
Cultural exchange programs provide a chance for young individuals to develop cross-cultural communication skills _____ for surviving in this global community.
核心觀念
本題考形容詞的語意與分詞用法。空格後的 for surviving in this global community 說明這些跨文化溝通技巧「對於在全球化社會中生存是必要的」,因此要選擇表示「所需要的、必要的」的 required。
解題方法
句子的主幹是:
Cultural exchange programs provide a chance for young individuals to develop cross-cultural communication skills _____ for surviving in this global community.
空格修飾前面的 skills,可理解為「在這個全球化社會中生存所需要的跨文化溝通技巧」。required 是過去分詞作形容詞,表示「被需要的、必要的」,可補成 skills required for surviving...,語意與文法皆通順。
選項分析
第 9 題2 分
Contrary to public perception, sharks do not _____ attack human beings unless they confuse them with seals.
核心觀念
本題考副詞的語意與搭配。句意為:「與大眾的印象相反,鯊魚除非把人誤認為海豹,否則不會__攻擊人類。」關鍵是空格要描述攻擊行為發生的頻率。
解題方法
先看句中的 unless 子句:鯊魚只有在把人誤認為海豹時,才會攻擊人類。主句因此要表達鯊魚平常並不常攻擊人類。能表示「習慣性地、經常地」的副詞最符合句意。
選項分析
- (A) culturally:文化上地 描述文化或風俗層面,不能自然修飾鯊魚攻擊人類的頻率,不合句意。
第 10 題2 分
The street slept in darkness and everything fell silent except the _____ sound of a vehicle from the distance.
核心觀念
本題考形容詞的字義與語境判斷。句子描寫街道在黑暗中沉寂,只有遠處傳來車輛的某種聲音;空格應填入表示「偶爾發生、間歇出現」的形容詞,才能與寂靜的場景相呼應。
解題方法
先看句意線索:街上「一片寂靜」,唯一例外是「遠處車輛傳來的聲音」。因此,這聲音應是偶爾響起,而非持續或帶有特殊情緒的聲音。搭配名詞 sound,occasional 表示「偶爾的、間歇的」,語意最合適。
全句可譯為:「街道沉睡在黑暗中,萬籟俱寂,只有遠處車輛偶爾傳來的聲音。」
選項分析
- (A) courageous:勇敢的,通常形容人或行動,如 a courageous person(勇敢的人)。不能自然地形容此處車輛聲音。

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) systems failed on early Wednesday morning. This accident that _____ thousands of flights across the country appeared to have been the result of a mistake. According to the internal review, an error occurred during the routine _____.
“An engineer replaced one file with another, not realizing that the mistake was _____ made,” an official said. As the systems began showing problems and _____ failed, FAA staff feverishly tried to figure out what had gone wrong. The engineer who made the error did not realize what had happened.
The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually after ordering a nationwide pause on all domestic departures. It regretted that a computer failure had delayed and canceled flights around the country.
核心觀念
本題考查動詞在語境中的意思與搭配。空格所在句為:
This accident that _____ thousands of flights across the country appeared to have been the result of a mistake.
句意是:「這起事故影響了全國數千架次航班,似乎是人為錯誤所致。」因此要選表示「影響」的動詞。
解題方法
先看受詞 thousands of flights(數千架次航班),判斷事故對航班造成的結果。後文提到 FAA 系統故障、全國暫停國內航班起飛,以及航班延誤、取消,可知事故對大量航班造成了影響,因此空格應填 impacted。

The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually after ordering a nationwide pause on all domestic departures. It regretted that a computer failure had delayed and canceled flights around the country.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字在上下文中的意思與搭配。第 12 題空格前有 routine(例行的),後接名詞,須選出能與之構成自然詞組、且符合 FAA 系統故障背景的字。
解題方法
短文提到 FAA 系統故障源自工程師誤換檔案,錯誤發生在例行作業期間。空格所在詞組是 the routine _____;英文常用搭配為 routine maintenance,意為「例行維護」。航空系統需要定期維護,因此與上下文相符。
選項分析
- (A) component:名詞,意為「組件、零件」。routine component 不符合此處「例行作業」的語意,也不是描述系統維護作業的自然搭配。

The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually after ordering a nationwide pause on all domestic departures. It regretted that a computer failure had delayed and canceled flights around the country.
核心觀念
本題考查關係子句中的動詞形式,以及「使某事物受到影響」的被動語態。空格所在句為:
This accident that _____ thousands of flights across the country appeared to have been the result of a mistake.
先找出關係子句的主詞與動詞:關係代名詞 that 指前面的 This accident,因此句意是「這起事故……了全國數千個航班」。事故是「影響航班」的施事者,應使用主動動詞 affect 的過去式 affected;但本題選項提供的是助動詞形式,需依上下文判斷其結構。
解題方法
選項 being 可與省略關係代名詞及 be 動詞的分詞構句相連,構成「事故正在影響航班」的意義;依官方答案,本句應讀作 This accident being thousands of flights…,此處 being 表示持續發生的狀態。
不過,依一般英文文法,being 後面不能直接接名詞片語 thousands of flights 來表達「影響數千航班」;較自然且文法正確的寫法應是 affected thousands of flights。因此,本題官方答案雖為 B,但題幹與選項之間存在明顯的文法疑義。

The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually after ordering a nationwide pause on all domestic departures. It regretted that a computer failure had delayed and canceled flights around the country.
核心觀念
本題考英文副詞的語意判讀,需看選項與句子前後文是否相符。空格所在句為:
This accident that _____ thousands of flights across the country appeared to have been the result of a mistake.
意思是:「這起影響全國數千架次航班的事故,似乎是由一項錯誤所造成。」
解題方法
先確認空格修飾動詞 affected(影響) 的語意。事故造成數千架次航班受到影響,重點是事故「最終/結果上」帶來的影響,因此用 ultimately,表示「最終、結果上」。

The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually after ordering a nationwide pause on all domestic departures. It regretted that a computer failure had delayed and canceled flights around the country.
核心觀念
本題考英文單字在語境中的意思,以及動詞形式與句子結構的搭配。第 15 題所在句為:
The FAA said normal operations were _____ gradually
意思是「FAA 表示,正常營運正逐步___」。空格需要填入能表示「恢復」的字,且要和前面的 were 搭配成過去進行式的被動形式:were being resumed,或依題目省略結構理解為「正逐步恢復」。此處應選 resuming,表達正常營運逐漸恢復。
解題方法
先看空格所在句意:FAA 下令暫停全國國內航班起飛後,正常營運逐步回到常態。因此空格應帶有「重新開始、恢復」的語意。
再看前後文:前文提到系統故障導致航班延誤與取消;後文也說 FAA 對此表示遺憾。全文描述的是故障發生後,航班運作逐步恢復的過程,語意上與 resume(恢復、重新開始)相符。

All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions. However, renewable sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower also have environmental impacts, some of which are significant. The exact type and intensity of environmental impacts varies depending on the specific technology used, the geographic location, and a number of other factors. By understanding the current and potential environmental issues associated with each renewable energy source, we can take steps to effectively avoid or minimize these impacts as they become a larger portion of our electric supply.
Harnessing power from the wind is one of the cleanest and most sustainable ways to generate electricity as it produces no toxic pollution or global warming emissions. Wind is also abundant, inexhaustible, and affordable, which makes it a viable and large-scale alternative to fossil fuels. Despite its vast potential, there are a variety of environmental impacts associated with wind power generation that should be recognized and mitigated. They include land use issues and challenges to wildlife and habitat.
Like wind power, the sun provides a tremendous resource for generating clean and sustainable electricity. The environmental impacts associated with solar power can include land use and habitat loss, water use, and the use of hazardous materials in manufacturing, though the types of impacts vary greatly depending on the scale of the system and the technology used—photovoltaic (PV) solar cells or concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP).
The most widely developed type of geothermal power plant (known as hydrothermal plants) are located near geologic “hot spots” where hot molten rock is close to the earth’s crust and produces hot water. In other regions enhanced geothermal systems (or hot dry rock geothermal), which involve drilling into the earth’s surface to reach deeper geothermal resources, can allow broader access to geothermal energy. Geothermal plants also differ in terms of the technology they use to convert the resource to electricity (direct steam, flash, or binary) and the type of cooling technology they use (water-cooled and air-cooled). Environmental impacts differ depending on the conversion and cooling technology used.
Biomass power plants share some similarities with fossil fuel power plants: both involve the combustion of a feedstock to generate electricity. Sources of biomass resources for producing electricity are diverse, ranging from energy crops (like switchgrass), to agricultural waste, manure, forest products and waste, and urban waste. Biomass plants raise similar, but not identical, concerns about air emissions and water use as fossil fuel plants. However, the feedstock of biomass plants can be sustainable produced, while fossil fuels are non-renewable.
Hydroelectric power includes both massive hydroelectric dams and small-of-the-river plants. Large-scale hydroelectric dams continue to be built in many parts of the world (including China and Brazil). There are environmental impacts at both types of plants. They may take away wildlife habitats and ruin the ecosystem.
Hydrokinetic energy, which includes wave and tidal power, encompasses an array of energy technologies, many of which still in the experimental stages or in the early stages of deployment. While actual impacts of large-scale operations have not been observed, a range of potential impacts can be projected.
- Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?

核心觀念
本題考查再生能源種類及其發電方式的英文閱讀理解。關鍵是辨認題目所問的「哪一種能源和化石燃料一樣,會燃燒材料來發電」。
解題方法
先定位文章中介紹各能源發電方式的段落,再比對題目中的關鍵字 burns materials(燃燒材料)。文章指出,生質能(biomass)電廠與化石燃料電廠相似,兩者都會燃燒原料(combustion of a feedstock)來發電,因此答案是生質能。
選項分析
- (A) Biomass energy(生質能)— 正確。 文章明確說明,生質能電廠和化石燃料電廠都會燃燒原料發電;生質能原料包括能源作物、農業廢棄物、糞肥、林業產品與廢棄物,以及都市廢棄物。
- **(B) Geothermal energy(地熱能)— 錯誤。

【題組共用題幹】
All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions. However, renewable sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower also have environmental impacts, some of which are significant. The exact type and intensity of environmental impacts varies depending on the specific technology used, the geographic location, and a number of other factors. By understanding the current and potential environmental issues associated with each renewable energy source, we can take steps to effectively avoid or minimize these impacts as they become a larger portion of our electric supply.
Harnessing power from the wind is one of the cleanest and most sustainable ways to generate electricity as it produces no toxic pollution or global warming emissions. Wind is also abundant, inexhaustible, and affordable, which makes it a viable and large-scale alternative to fossil fuels. Despite its vast potential, there are a variety of environmental impacts associated with wind power generation that should be recognized and mitigated. They include land use issues and challenges to wildlife and habitat.
Like wind power, the sun provides a tremendous resource for generating clean and sustainable electricity. The environmental impacts associated with solar power can include land use and habitat loss, water use, and the use of hazardous materials in manufacturing, though the types of impacts vary greatly depending on the scale of the system and the technology used—photovoltaic (PV) solar cells or concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP).
The most widely developed type of geothermal power plant (known as hydrothermal plants) are located near geologic “hot spots” where hot molten rock is close to the earth’s crust and produces hot water. In other regions enhanced geothermal systems (or hot dry rock geothermal), which involve drilling into the earth’s surface to reach deeper geothermal resources, can allow broader access to geothermal energy. Geothermal plants also differ in terms of the technology they use to convert the resource to electricity (direct steam, flash, or binary) and the type of cooling technology they use (water-cooled and air-cooled). Environmental impacts differ depending on the conversion and cooling technology used.
Biomass power plants share some similarities with fossil fuel power plants: both involve the combustion of a feedstock to generate electricity. Sources of biomass resources for producing electricity are diverse, ranging from energy crops (like switchgrass), to agricultural waste, manure, forest products and waste, and urban waste. Biomass plants raise similar, but not identical, concerns about air emissions and water use as fossil fuel plants. However, the feedstock of biomass plants can be sustainable produced, while fossil fuels are non-renewable.
Hydroelectric power includes both massive hydroelectric dams and small-of-the-river plants. Large-scale hydroelectric dams continue to be built in many parts of the world (including China and Brazil). There are environmental impacts at both types of plants. They may take away wildlife habitats and ruin the ecosystem.
Hydrokinetic energy, which includes wave and tidal power, encompasses an array of energy technologies, many of which still in the experimental stages or in the early stages of deployment. While actual impacts of large-scale operations have not been observed, a range of potential impacts can be projected.
- According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
核心觀念
本題考查英文閱讀理解,重點是從文章中辨認各種再生能源的環境影響、技術發展狀態,以及它們與地理位置的關係。作答時應依據文章明確提供的資訊,避免把選項中的絕對說法或額外推論當成文章結論。
解題方法
先抓文章反覆出現的共同訊息:再生能源的環境影響,會因「使用的技術」及「地理位置」等因素而異。接著逐一核對選項是否符合原文:
- 風力發電的環境影響包括土地使用及野生動物、棲地等問題。
- 太陽能的影響依系統規模與技術類型而異。
- 地熱電廠的地點、發電技術與冷卻方式各有差異。
- 水力與水動力能源的發展狀態並不相同。
選項分析
(A) Renewable energy sources do no harm to the environment like fossil fuels. 錯誤。文章指出,再生能源也會造成環境影響,有些影響相當顯著;風力可能影響土地、野生動物與棲地,太陽能也可能造成棲地流失、用水及製造危害物質等問題。因此不能說再生能源對環境完全無害。文章的比較是化石燃料「通常造成更多危害」,不是再生能源「毫無危害」。
(B) Both Hydroelectric power and Hydrokinetic power are mature technology. 錯誤。

立法院就重大政策爭議,有由人民直接決定之必要者,得交付公民投票,由人民直接決定之。除符合我國憲政體制為代議民主原則外,亦符合下列何項原則?
核心觀念
本題考「代議民主」與「主權在民」的關係。代議民主由人民選出的代表代為行使國家權力;公民投票則讓人民就特定重大議題直接作成決定,是人民直接行使權力的方式。
憲法第 2 條規定:「中華民國之主權屬於國民全體。」立法院將重大政策爭議交付公民投票,使人民直接決定,正是主權屬於人民的表現。以下以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。
解題方法
抓住題幹中的「由人民直接決定」即可判斷。人民透過投票直接參與國家重大事項的決定,對應憲法第 2 條的「主權在民原則」。題幹另提到代議民主,說明直接民主的公民投票可作為代議制度的補充;題目要問的是,這種直接決定還符合哪一項原則。

法官因執行審判職務而侵害人民權利時,國家賠償法第 13 條設有特別規定。依司法院解釋意旨,下列敘述何者並非該條之合憲理由?
核心觀念
本題考司法院釋字第 228 號解釋對《國家賠償法》第 13 條的合憲說明。依命題當年(民國 113 年)法規,該條規定:有審判或追訴職務的公務員,因執行職務侵害人民自由或權利,須就其參與審判或追訴的案件犯職務上的罪,且經判決有罪確定,才適用《國家賠償法》。
釋字第 228 號指出,審判者依證據及資料形成心證、作成法律判斷,難免有見解差異;訴訟制度設有救濟途徑,得以糾正心證或法律見解上的錯誤。為維護審判獨立,合理範圍內也應容忍難以避免的差誤。國家機關功能不同,國家賠償責任也可以作合理差別規定。
解題方法
題目問「何者並非合憲理由」,應先抓出釋字第 228 號所說的三個重點:訴訟救濟能糾正判斷差誤、審判獨立需要合理容忍難免差誤、國家機關功能不同得有不同規定。再檢視選項是否符合這些理由。
選項 B 把「民、刑事錯判已有補償制度」當成合憲理由,但釋字第 228 號的理由不是如此;冤獄補償制度也不等於民、刑事錯判都有一般性的補償制度。
選項分析
第 23 題2 分
依司法院大法官解釋,下列何者並非憲法財產權之保障範圍?
核心觀念
本題考憲法第 15 條財產權的保障範圍。財產權保障不只包括已取得的所有權,也包括依法成立、具有財產價值的公法上或私法上請求權;但國家基於照顧、救助目的提供的給付,若性質上是緊急慰助,而非補償人民的財產損失,就不因此成為憲法財產權保障的標的。
解題方法
逐一辨認選項所指權利的性質,並對照大法官解釋:
- 依法可請領的福利互助金,屬於公法上財產請求權。
- 時效完成後請求登記為地上權人,屬於具有財產價值的登記請求權。
- 土地被徵收後,原所有權人的收回權與其財產權保障相關。
- 震災急難救助給付則是緊急慰助,並非財產權損失補償。
因此,只有(A)不在憲法財產權保障範圍內。
選項分析
(A)震災急難救助之給付:正確,為本題答案。司法院釋字第 571 號指出,九二一地震災區的緊急慰助金,是為提供受災者緊急慰助,並非對人民財產權損失的補償;不符合慰助條件而未獲給付,本質上並未涉及人民財產權限制。因此,震災急難救助給付並非憲法財產權保障範圍。
第 24 題2 分
依據釋憲實務見解,下列何者非採取嚴格審查?
核心觀念
本題考言論自由與集會自由受限制時,釋憲實務採取的違憲審查標準。審查標準會依言論性質、限制方式與所追求的公共利益而有不同;對政治性言論,以及對言論的事前審查,通常採較嚴格的標準。
命題當年(民國 113 年)的相關法源包括憲法第 11 條、第 14 條及第 23 條,以及司法院釋字第 445 號、第 644 號與第 744 號解釋。釋字第 445 號以「明顯而立即危險」限制對政治性言論的事前管制;釋字第 744 號則指出,化粧品廣告事前審查對言論自由造成重大干預,須符合嚴格的比例原則審查。
解題方法
逐項辨別限制所針對的是什麼:
- 針對政治主張或言論內容的限制,涉及高度政治性表意,採較嚴格審查。
- 以刑罰處罰顛覆政府的言論,也涉及政治性言論及言論自由,須嚴格限制處罰範圍。
- 集會遊行禁制區限制的是活動的時間、地點或方式;釋字第 445 號認其目的在保護重要機關、軍事設施及交通,並肯認該規定合憲,沒有採取嚴格審查。
- 化粧品廣告事前審查屬對商業言論的事前管制;釋字第 744 號就此採嚴格審查。
因此,題目問「非採取嚴格審查」,應選集會遊行禁制區規定。
選項分析
(A) 禁止室外集會遊行主張共產主義的規定:錯誤。 釋字第 445 號認為,僅因集會遊行主張共產主義或分裂國土,就不予許可,等於由主管機關事前審查政治言論內容,侵害表現自由。
第 25 題2 分
司法院釋字第 716 號解釋認公職人員利益衝突迴避法第 15 條,禁止公職人員及關係人與有關機關交易,違者處交易行為金額 至 倍罰鍰之規定違憲。下列敘述何者錯誤?
核心觀念
本題考司法院釋字第 716 號對《公職人員利益衝突迴避法》第 15 條的違憲審查,重點是辨別違憲理由及其涉及的基本權。以下以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。
該條禁止公職人員及其關係人與公職人員服務或受其監督的機關進行特定交易,違反者處以交易行為金額一至三倍的罰鍰。釋字第 716 號認為此罰鍰規定涉及財產權限制,且未充分考量個案情節,可能導致處罰顯然過苛,因此不符憲法第 23 條比例原則。
解題方法
依題幹所述釋字第 716 號的違憲判斷,逐項核對其理由:
- 看解釋是否以憲法第 7 條平等權為違憲依據。
- 看交易金額倍數罰鍰是否涉及財產權。
- 看固定的罰鍰範圍是否仍可能造成個案處罰過苛。
- 判斷該過苛問題是否構成比例原則違反。
題目問「何者錯誤」,關鍵在於釋字第 716 號的違憲理由是財產權與比例原則,而非平等權。
選項分析
(A) 該規定違反憲法第 7 條平等權。—錯誤
第 26 題2 分
關於法人權利,下列敘述何者錯誤?
核心觀念
本題考「法人基本權主體資格」:法人是否享有某項基本權,須看該權利的性質是否能適用於法人。具有團體性、組織性或財產性的權利,法人通常可以主張;以人的內在精神、良知或人格感受為核心的權利,則不適用於法人。
涉及法條的判斷,以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。《憲法訴訟法》第 40 條規定,人民、法人或政黨於其憲法上所保障的權利遭受不法侵害,依法定程序用盡審級救濟後,得聲請憲法法庭判決。
解題方法
逐項檢視各基本權的性質,再判斷法人能否成為權利主體:
- 言論自由可由法人透過機關或代表表達意見。
- 思想及良心自由以個人的內在精神活動為核心,法人不具備此種內在心智。
- 法人仍有其基本權保障;強制法人公開道歉涉及表意自由及人格權,不能僅以「合理限制」概括認定合憲。
- 法律明文承認法人得在符合法定條件時聲請憲法法庭裁判。
選項分析
(A) 法人得為言論自由之主體。—正確
第 27 題2 分
行政院不得對立法院議決之下列何種議案提出覆議?
核心觀念
本題考《憲法》第57條的覆議制度。以命題當年(民國113年)法規為準,行政院認為立法院議決的法律案、預算案或條約案窒礙難行時,得經總統核可,在決議案送達行政院十日內移請立法院覆議。立法院須於送達十五日內作成決議;如全體立法委員二分之一以上維持原案,行政院院長應即接受該決議。
人事案不在《憲法》第57條所列可移請覆議的議案範圍內,因此本題選人事案。
解題方法
先辨認題目問的是行政院「不得」對哪一類議案提出覆議,再依《憲法》第57條核對法定範圍:法律案、預算案、條約案。選項中只有「人事案」不在列舉範圍內,故為答案。
選項分析
第 28 題2 分
關於對行政院院長之不信任案,下列敘述何者錯誤?
核心觀念
本題考行政院院長不信任案的提案門檻、提出時點、表決方式與通過門檻。以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準,主要依據是《中華民國憲法增修條文》第 3 條第 2 項第 3 款、《立法院職權行使法》第 37 條及司法院釋字第 735 號解釋。
憲法增修條文規定,立法院得經全體立法委員三分之一以上連署提出不信任案;提出後 72 小時,應於 48 小時內以記名投票表決。全體立法委員二分之一以上贊成,才算通過。釋字第 735 號解釋指出,憲法沒有要求不信任案只能在常會提出,於臨時會提出並非憲法所不許。
解題方法
逐項對照法定要件即可:
- 提案連署門檻:全體立法委員三分之一以上。
- 表決方式:記名投票。
- 通過門檻:全體立法委員二分之一以上贊成。
- 提出時點:憲法未限於常會;臨時會也可以提出。
第 29 題2 分
依憲法訴訟法之規定,下列何者不得請求憲法法庭判決?
核心觀念
本題考《憲法訴訟法》所定的憲法法庭案件類型,以及各類案件的聲請人資格。判斷時要先辨認聲請人是人民、法院、中央機關,還是政黨主管機關,再確認法律是否授權該聲請人就題述事項聲請判決。
以下以命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。
解題方法
逐一對照法定聲請類型:
- 人民用盡審級救濟後,可依《憲法訴訟法》第 59 條聲請裁判憲法審查。
- 法院認為審理案件所應適用的法律位階法規範違憲,可依第 55 條聲請。
- 政黨主管機關可依第 77 條聲請宣告政黨解散。
- 地方立法或行政機關的地方自治保障聲請,則依第 82 條等規定辦理;這不是中央機關主張中央立法權受侵害的聲請途徑。
由此可見,B 所述的中央機關並無題述聲請資格,符合題目所問的「不得請求」。
選項分析
(A) 人民遭受終審法院的敗訴判決確定,認為該法院裁判違憲。
可以聲請。依第 59 條,人民依法定程序用盡審級救濟後,對受不利確定終局裁判所適用的法規範或該裁判本身,認為牴觸憲法者,得聲請憲法法庭判決。聲請仍須符合該條所定要件與期間;
第 30 題2 分
依憲法本文規定,下列何者不屬於中央自行立法並執行之事項?
核心觀念
本題考《中華民國憲法》第 107 條所列「由中央立法並執行」的事項。題目要求找出不屬於中央自行立法並執行者。以下依命題當年(民國 113 年)法規為準。
憲法第 107 條列舉中央專屬事項,包括外交、國防與國防軍事、國籍法、刑事民事及商事法律、司法制度、國際貿易政策等。公共衛生則不在該條列舉範圍內。
解題方法
逐項核對憲法第 107 條的列舉事項:出現在條文中的選項,屬中央立法並執行事項;未列在其中的選項,即不屬於本題所問的中央自行立法並執行事項。
選項分析
