这套练习训练五项技能:扫读限制条件、区分日期与截止日期、追踪指代、在选项重复用词时选出正确细节,以及解释为什么看似合理的选项没有依据。题目由易到难。
先在纸上作答,再打开每个答案,比较你的推理,不只是最后的选择。最后一部分会告诉你,每一种错误应该回到哪一课。
文章 A:Sunrise Community Hall
Booking rules. The hall can be hired for private events from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Residents of Taman Sunrise receive a 20% discount, but only if they show their resident card when paying the deposit. The RM100 deposit is refundable unless the hall is left dirty. Music must stop at 9.30 p.m. Bookings must be made at least 14 days before the event. Cancellations made more than 7 days before the event receive a full refund of the hire fee.
Q1. Until what time may music be played?
显示答案
9.30 p.m. 大厅可使用到 10 p.m.,但回答题目的是 “Music must stop at 9.30 p.m.” 这条规则。
Q2. Mr Tan lives in Taman Sunrise but forgets his resident card when he pays the deposit. Does he receive the discount?
显示答案
不能。 折扣适用于 “only if they show their resident card when paying the deposit”。住在 Taman Sunrise 是第一个条件,出示卡片是第二个,Mr Tan 只满足第一个。
Q3. What happens to the RM100 deposit if the hall is left dirty?
显示答案
不退还。 押金是 “refundable unless the hall is left dirty”,所以弄脏场地就没有退款。
Q4. An event is planned for 30 June. What is the latest date on which the booking can be made?
显示答案
16 June。 “At least 14 days before” 表示 14 天或更早。30 − 14 = 16,所以 16 June 是最后一天。
Q5. Mrs Lee cancels on 25 June for an event on 30 June. Does the notice promise her a full refund of the hire fee?
显示答案
没有。 只有在活动前超过 7 天取消才承诺全额退款。从 25 June 到 30 June 是 5 天。告示没有说明这种情况会怎样,所以她应该向大厅询问。
文章 B:The school fruit stall
Last year the school council replaced the old vending machines with a fruit stall. It was run by Year 11 volunteers, who bought the fruit from a local market each morning. Sales were slow at first because the prices were higher than the cafeteria’s, but they picked up after the council added a loyalty card. This meant students got a free banana after ten purchases. By December, the stall was selling about twice as many items as in its first month.
Q6. What does “It” refer to in “It was run by Year 11 volunteers”?
显示答案
The fruit stall。 上一句提到 vending machines 和 stall,代入判断:是志愿者经营摊位,不是旧的售货机。
Q7. What does “This” refer to in “This meant students got a free banana after ten purchases”?
显示答案
学生会新增会员积分卡(loyalty card)的决定。 “This” 指回前一个分句的整个动作,不是某一个名词。
Q8. Why were sales slow at first? A The Year 11 volunteers lacked experience. B The prices were higher than those in the cafeteria. C The fruit was bought at a local market. D The vending machines had been removed.
显示答案
B。 文中说销售缓慢是 “because the prices were higher than the cafeteria’s”。
A 文中没有提到。C 和 D 重复了原文的词(“market”、“vending machines”),但没有被当作原因。
Q9. Which statement is not supported by the text? A Students could earn a free banana. B In December the stall sold about twice as many items as in its first month. C The cafeteria lowered its prices.
显示答案
C。 A 有积分卡那句作依据,B 有最后一句作依据。餐厅的价格只是作为比较被提到,文中从未说它变过,所以 C 是 not stated。
Q10. Hand-in details are given in a separate notice: “Volunteer forms for next term’s stall must be handed to Ms Aida by Wednesday 12 November. Training is on 19 and 20 November, and the stall reopens on 24 November.” A student hands in a form on Thursday 13 November. Is this in time, and which date is the deadline?
显示答案
不行,迟了一天。 截止日期是 Wednesday 12 November,由 “must be handed … by” 标示。19 和 20 November 是培训日,24 November 是重新开张,所以都不是截止日期。
如果你做错了
| 你在哪里出错 | 通常意味着 | 去哪一课 |
|---|---|---|
| Q1 到 Q3:选了主要事实,漏掉限制 | 你读到第一个分句就停了 | 扫读告示找出限制条件 |
| Q4、Q5、Q10:日期或星期错了 | 你按位置配对日期,没看它的作用 | 区分日期与截止日期 |
| Q6、Q7:名词或想法错了 | 你选了最近的名词,没有代入检验 | 追踪跨两句的指代 |
| Q8:选了真实但答非所问的选项 | 你配对的是词,不是疑问词 | 在干扰项重复用词时找出正确细节 |
| Q9:选了听起来很可能的陈述 | 你用了常识,没有用文章 | 解释为什么看似合理的选项没有依据 |
