Q: Did Sally tell you if she was going to the party?

1. I’m not sure if I’ll go or not.
2. She said she would go if she felt better.
3. It’s at 8:00， right?

名師分析:
問句裡的主詞是She，因此肯定句也要保持代名詞的一貫性，(1)的答案是I，所以代名詞不正確。選項3的內容不但文不對題，代名詞也和問句不一致。全部選項只有(2)也是用She來回答，因此正確答案是(2)。

Who is the woman ?

1. She is a cook.
2. She is a cooker.
3. She is an engineer.

名師分析:
-er常做為職稱的字尾，因此選項(1)和(2)試圖用這概念來混淆學生。但是職稱不一定要加er，例如: architecture建築學-> architect建築師選項(2)是工具，選項(3)是工程師，因此答案是(1)。

Q: This problem will have to be _______ or it will become even worse.

1. looked
2. looked into
3. looking
4. looking into

名師分析:
Be動詞 + 現在分詞 = 進行式
Be動詞 + 過去分詞 = 被動語態
這一句的意思是: 要檢討問題，不然會變得越來越嚴重。問題不會自我檢視，所以要用被動語態，因此選項3和4就被刪除。(1)是看的意思，(2)是個片語代表研究和調查，因此選項2才是正確答案。

Question: What does the man think of the restaurant?

1. He thinks the food is good and the price is reasonable.
2. He is not satisfied with either the food or the price.
3. He thinks the food is good but expensive.
4. He does not like the food

名師分析:
The prices are “outrageous”代表價格超過他的預測，因此答案是同義的(3)，他覺得太貴了。

My friend, Mike, complains a lot. If it is not about the weather, then he’s usually grouching about Taipei’s traffic, the economy, or his job at the post office. —A— the past SARS epidemic, he was unhappy about measures the government —B— taking.
“I don’t see why we have to have our temperatures taken so often,” he said.
“If one has a fever, one needs to —C— quarantined,” I answered.
“Just because someone has a fever doesn’t mean they have SARS.”
“We have a saying, Mike. Better safe than sorry,” I told him.
Mike, however, wasn’t finished. “Well then, why do we have to wear masks on the MRT, —D— when research shows that they do not protect us?” Mike asked.
“Mike,” I replied, “I see your point. But about 75% of sicknesses are psychological. If people believe they’re going to get sick, then often they do.” A half-smile came across Mike’s face.
“All right. I won’t say anything more. If the masks make people more comfortable, I —E— we should give them what they want.”

A(1).While  (2).Towards  (3).During  (4).As soon as  
B(1).is  (2).was  (3).were  (4).are  
C(1).have  (2).make  (3).do  (4).be  
D(1).moreover  (2).indeed  (3).especially  (4).furthermore  
E(1).suppose  (2).complain  (3).predict  (4).confess

名師分析:
A. While和as soon as後面都要接子句，因此選項1和4都被淘汰掉。Toward和during都是介系詞並
    且後面都要接名詞，但這一題我們要找可連接時間的介系詞，towards是朝向或面對的意思，只有選
    項(3) during 代表時間的期限。
B. 這一句是單數主詞，因此要用單數的Be動詞。動詞時態要有一致性，因此要選擇(2)過去單數be
    動詞。
C. 發燒的病人要被隔離，因此要選擇被動語態be動詞 + V，因此答案是(4)。
D.Moreover和furthermore都是此外、並且的意思，不符合句義。Indeed一定要放在句首，所以也不
    正確。只有especially可以放在句中並且加強句義，因此答案是(3)。
E.這一句的意思是”假如戴口罩會讓別人安心，我想我們就該照做”，裡面只有(1)有猜想的語意。

禮拜五我等紅綠燈時，一位小姐上前來叫我的名字，原來她是我的小學同學瑤瑤 (Yo-yo)。真是令人驚訝！我們已經十年沒見面了。她現在比以前瘦了許多，
難怪我一時沒認出她來。

名師分析:
When I was waiting for the traffic light, a lady, my elementary school classmate-Yo-yo, came to address me. It was such an astonishment. We have not seen each other for ten years. She is much slenderer than she was; no wonder, I was not able to recognizer her at the first sight then.

寫作技巧:
先在文章裡找出動詞並確定好時態，再把其他文章的細節補上。

 Boy, Betty, you’re looking fit these days! What’s your secret?

1. I try to take good care of myself and exercise often.
2. I can still fit into my old clothes even after all these years.
3. I don’t think I am fit to be a secretary.
4. I have spent a lot of money on some new outfits for work.

M: Is that an engagement ring on your finger?
W: It sure is. It’s beautiful, don’t you think?
M: It’s exquisite. And look at the size of that diamond. It really sparkles in the sun. So tell me, Karen, when are you tying the knot?
W: The wedding ceremony is set for June 12th. I hope you can come.
M: I wouldn’t miss it for anything in the world. Have you decided on where you’re going on your honeymoon?
W: Paris. It’s like a dream come true.

Question: What’s going to happen on June 12th?

1. The woman is going to get engaged.
2. The woman is going to buy a wedding ring.
3. The woman is going to go to Paris for business.
4. The woman is going to get married.

名師分析:
先從問句裡找關鍵字，這一題的關鍵字是”June 12th”，在聽對話時要從出現關鍵字的那一句裡找答案。對話裡"June 12th"是和”wedding ceremony”放在一起，因此不是(1)。也不是(2)，因為對話的同時，女生已是帶著戒指。第3選項也不對，雖然有講到去巴黎度蜜月，但和”June 12th”這一天無關，選項中句義也非度蜜月。第4選項是唯一和”wedding ceremony”有關的，因此這才是正確答案。

In this company‚ staff normally retire at the age of sixty-five. Mr. Wang _______________ last year‚ but he wants to keep working for at least another five years.

1. must have retired
2. could have retired
3. should have retire
4. would have been retire

名師分析:

• Might
• May
• Would + have + pp = 過去事實相反的完成概念
• Could
• Should

Ex. I should have brought an umbrella before I left my house.
我出門前應該要帶把雨傘的。

這四個選項裡，可先刪除(3)和(4)，因為Be動詞後面應該要加pp，所以這兩題有文法錯誤。
這一題是在說: 在這個公司，大部份的員工都在65歲退休。王先生去年______，但他想要在繼續上班至少5年。第1選項”must have retired”代表對過去事實的推測，但這一題是要找和過去事實的相反概念，”王先生原本可以退休”，因此答案是(2)。
