(A) is made (B) make (C) has made (D) have made

關鍵字:of

complete some tasks ______ on your instructions. 108

套用省略主詞關代形成分詞片語,原句 complete some tasks which are
based on...,簡化完後變成 complete some tasks based on。


★ No matter ______ hard you try to please, some people are not going to love you. 104

句二很明顯在 the area 前少了介係詞 in,因此應用關係副詞 where。

of the Earth’s oxygen and fresh water. A lot of medicines we use today to treat cancer or heart disease

24 from the plants that grow only in rainforests. Many items we use in our own homes come from
the rainforest as well. 25 , rainforests are disappearing at an alarmingly fast pace, largely due to

關鍵字:of the Earth’s oxygen and fresh water。oxygen(氧氣)與 water 皆為不可數名詞,
因此用 much。(A)(C)(D)接與複數名詞連用。
24. (A) manufacture (B) manufactured (C) are manufacturing (D) are manufactured
解 析:答案 (D)。
關鍵字:A lot of medicines we use today to treat cancer or heart disease ____ from the
plants…。分析長句,分析時要抓主詞動詞:S1(A lot of medicines)+ [S2 (we) +
V2(use)…] + _____,當發現句子有兩個主詞時,十之八九就是省略受格關代後
的主詞 + 動詞,因此可略過不看,因為主要動詞(空格選項)的單複數變化,

是依主要主詞(A lot of medicines)而定,又因選項動詞 manufacture(製造),
與 medicines(藥)的關係需使用被動語態。

25. (A) In addition (B) Luckily (C) To conclude (D) Unfortunately
解 析:答案 (D)。

關鍵字:Many items we use in our own homes come from the rainforest as well. rainforests
are disappearing at an alarmingly fast pace。上下兩句語意轉折。

oxygen, and fewer species of animals. 分析長句,分析時要抓主詞動詞:Problems
(S)+_____ + include(V)…,分析得知句子已有主詞與動詞,因此,空格
的動詞需做變化或利用關代以合文法規則,否則會形成不合文法的雙動詞錯誤
(A)(C)。(D)應改為 that result,而(B)則是由(D)省略主格關代,形成分詞片語,
口訣:主動 Ving,被動 P.P.。

Artificial Intelligence (AI) 22 become mature. Many companies, such as Google, Amazon, and
Apple, have created smart voice assistants that can understand what you say, search for answers to your

questions, and complete some tasks 23 on your instructions. More recently, chatbots, which are
computer programs with AI techniques on apps, have been developed in order to present useful
information whenever users request 24 . From the perspectives of business, replacing humans 25
chatbots can save money. As a result, many companies nowadays want to develop their own chatbots.

Chapter 5










閱讀測驗

Ⅰ.閱讀策略
1. 文章結構
主題句:通常為每段的第一句,帶出整段的大意。因此,只要掌握每段的主題句,即可掌握整
篇文章的大意。對應的題目為:整篇大意為何?這篇文章的最佳標題為何?

支持句:在主題句後所出現的句子稱為支持句,不外乎提供更多細節、數據、證據、論點等。
因此,以 Wh-問句開始的題目、何者為是/何者為非就是從支持句發展出來的。
結論句:結論句出現在文章的最後一句,為整篇文章作總結。因此,搭配每段的主題句與結論
句,即可得知整篇文章的概要。


2. 提高閱讀速度:
每句先抓主詞與動詞,不認識的字,先略過。


3. 熟悉長句的結構:
句子有含名詞子句、副詞子句、形容詞子句(含省略主格關代形成分詞片語)會比較長且不好
閱讀。更長的句子,則可能混雜兩種子句,甚至有插入的片語或同位格。


以下擷取幾句閱讀測驗曾出現的長句作分析:
◆ It is a pity that they do not know the true meaning of happiness, without getting and spending money.

and Korean-style clothes have become very popular. (106)
句子分析:轉承詞, because of N, S like N1, N2, and N3 + have + P.P.


4. 隨手畫重點:
重點可為年代、人名、方法、因果關係等。另外,務必將否定詞圈出,因為會影響語意;抓住
轉承詞與連接詞,則可預測下一句的語意走向。舉例來說:therefore 的下一句呈現結果;however

的下一句呈現轉折語氣;for example 的下一句呈現更具體的例子;besides 的下一句呈現上一句
以外的另一個例子;so 的下一句呈現結果等等。

5. 多閱讀:
廣泛閱讀可以複習單字、學習新單字、增加語感、提高閱讀速度、累積各領域背景知識等等。


茲以 109 學年度閱讀測驗為例:
Early this year, a new coronavirus(新冠狀病毒)caused the rapid spread of the Coronavirus Disease
2019 (COVID-19). Many countries began practicing “social distancing” to prevent infection spread by

increasing the space between people. All over the world, social distancing brought about changes in
people’s ways of living, learning, and working.
Lifestyle changes due to social distancing affected almost everyone. People avoided crowded places and
unnecessary traveling. In Italy, for example, church leaders spoke to followers online. Elsewhere, online

shopping in Taiwan and home entertainment in China rose significantly in February.
Social distancing also had an effect on learning. In Australia, when schools were still open, teachers tried
not to let students mix in common areas that included the classroom, café and library. As the crisis
worsened, schools closed one after another. By early April, over 90% of the world’s students were not

attending school. In some places, such as Italy and Hong Kong, students turned to learning from home
through Internet connection.
To lower the risk of infection, companies put distance between employees in the workplace and told sick
employees to stay home. Offices were generally flexible in the time and place of work. Furthermore, to

keep the workplace safe, the United States passed a law to provide paid sick leave for all employees.
This was to make sure that workers who fell ill with the coronavirus would stay home without fear of
losing their income.
In the fight against the coronavirus, people stayed apart to stay healthy. However, they all stayed

connected to feel a sense of togetherness. (109)

範例(105 年):
Water is a major component of the human body. Lack of water can affect bodily functions. The body
continuously loses water through daily activities and must make up for this loss through food such as fruits
and vegetables, and beverages such as milk and soda. Water, which is calorie free, is the healthiest drink.

Men need 13 cups of water per day and women need nine. Water requirements depend on activity levels,
climate, and health. If you are doing exercise, you need to drink an extra two cups of water. For intense
exercise, such as marathon running or road cycling, you need even more. Sports drinks are one way to
replace water and sodium lost through sweat. In hot and dry weather, the body must have enough water to

keep cool. Furthermore, in mountains of over 2500 meters, people breathe faster, so they require five cups of
water more than usual.
People suffering from fever should also take in additional fluids to balance water loss. Pregnant or
breast-feeding women need large amounts of water, too. Doctors advise mothers-to-be to drink ten cups of

water daily and women who are breast-feeding 14 cups per day. All in all, water needs differ according to
various factors and drinking proper amounts of water is key to good health.

37. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor influencing water needs?

(A) Personal health. (B) Climate conditions. (C) Sports activities. (D) Emotional status.
解題:答案為(D)。只有(D)情緒狀態沒有在文章中提及。

38. According to the passage, how much water should a pregnant woman drink per day?

(A) 9 cups. (B) 10 cups. (C) 13 cups. (D) 14 cups.
解題:答案為(B)。pregnant 意思為「懷孕的」,對應到文中 mothers-to-be「即將成為媽媽」。Doctors
advise mothers-to-be to drink ten cups of water daily.


39. Which of the following is an example of “fluids” shown in line 1 in the third paragraph?
(A) Milk candy. (B) Chicken breast. (C) Orange juice. (D) Hot dog.
解題:答案為(C)柳橙汁。整篇都在講「水」,且下一句講到 need large amounts of water, too。
另外,從選項亦可窺知一二,因為只有(C)為液體,其餘皆為固態食物。


40. Which of the following is true about this passage?
(A) Water is needed for the body to function well.
(B) You need less water if you get a high temperature.

(C) Sports drinks do not provide sodium for athletes.

Ⅲ.考古題
110
In 2020, the United Nations World Food Program ( WFP ) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for its
efforts to fight hunger, to help bring about peace, and to prevent the use of hunger as a weapon of war.

The WFP focuses its work on hunger and food security issues. In 1962, the organization shipped wheat,
sugar and tea to Iran after an earthquake killed 12,000 people. Since then, it has been helping victims of
natural disasters.
Other areas of work include the school meals program which covered about 17 million children in

2019. The WFP believes that food security and peace go hand in hand. The world cannot end hunger
without putting an end to conflict. In 2010, the WFP successfully resolved a conflict situation in Central
Asia. Several villages on the border of two countries were quarreling over water resources. The WFP
helped to rebuild water supply systems which were shared across borders and provided food for people

who joined in the construction.

Water pollution is a serious problem in the United States. Unsafe levels of toxic chemicals linked to
cancer have been found in the drinking water of 33 states. To solve this problem, Eric Li, the founder and
CEO of Ecomo, has developed the world’s first smart water bottle.

It took Li about two years to develop the water bottle that is very easy to use. After filling water from
a tap, lake, or even toilet, all you need to do is shake, twist, and drink. In less than five seconds, the filter,
the bottle’s water-cleaning mechanism, removes 99 percent of bacteria, pesticides, petroleum products,
and heavy metals. If the water is clean, the word “Good” appears on the LED monitor with a green light

flashing. If it is still undrinkable, a yellow or red light and the word “Fail” or “Bad” will appear on the
monitor at the same time.
Ecomo, which is the name of the bottle and is short for “eco-monitor,” has other features that
consumers will enjoy. The bottle weighs just 0.37 kilograms, but it can store almost 600 milliliters of

water. Furthermore, it can keep water hot for 12 hours or cold for 24 hours. Customers are warned,
however, not to fill the bottle with other kinds of liquids because these will damage the bottle.
Two other notable aspects of the product are the app and Bluetooth wristband that the product works
with. The app sends a notice to users when it is time to change the filter. In addition to measuring

temperature, the Bluetooth wristband records users’ daily activities, calculates their water needs, and
monitors their water intake.

32. What is the passage mainly about?

(A) To show the process of making clean water.
(B) To introduce a product that keeps water clean.
(C) To examine how much water to drink per day.
(D) To describe the ways to protect water sources.

(A) He teaches chemistry. (B) He sells LED monitors.
(C) He writes news articles. (D) He develops new products.
34. According to the passage, why is the water bottle, Ecomo, smart?

(A) Because it has a blue light. (B) Because it has a cheap monitor.
(C) Because it uses a Bluetooth device. (D) Because it uses a big capacity bottle.
35. Which of the following statements is true about Ecomo?
(A) Its filter removes unwanted substances fast.

(B) It can change any liquid into drinking water.
(C) Its filter tells users to change the LED monitor.
(D) It can be used to store water, juice, or coffee.
36. Which of the following inferences can be drawn from Ecomo?

(A) Users can easily get the weather report through the bottle.
(B) Users can use it to make an appointment with their doctor.
(C) Users can use it to find various water drinking sites nearby.
