劍三篇

劍3出版時間較早，因此出題點較現(xiàn)在來看有些不太一樣，尤其是現(xiàn)在盜版碟中的錄音，語速尤其快，這是由于劍3正版只有磁帶的緣故。在題目上劍3的難度并不大。

其中test 4 section 3是較難的一篇。這篇是討論學生所寫論文的修改。題型是選擇+搭配+填空題。第一個難點出現(xiàn)在第3題。

23???? Amina was surprised because she

A???? thought it was bad.

B???? wrote it quickly.

C???? found it difficult to do.

此題和上一題距離非常近，在做題時極容易由于還在思考上一題的答案而忽略此題的答案。其次此題的文字答案是That's amazing because I really didn't find it a bit easy to write...這邊surprise和amaze的同意互換相當有難度。而選項B wrote it quickly中的wrote，非常容易成為干擾選項。

Questions 24-26

What suggestions does Dr Bryson make? Complete the table as follows.

Write A?????????? if he says KEEP UNCHANGED

Write B?????????? if he says REWRITE

Write C?????????? if he says REMOVE COMPLETELY

Chronology??????????????????????? 26????? .................

文字答案：

AMINA:? What about the chronology ... the list of dates? I wasn’t sure whether I should rewrite those.

BRYSON:? My advice on that is to take them out. I feel it makes the whole piece appear too simplistic.

這邊學生詢問是不是應該rewrite，而教授的觀點是應該take out，因此應該選C，但是很容易受到前面的rewrite影響而錯選擇了B。

Read 27 '................' by Kate Oakwell.

Make changes and show to 28 ................ .

Do 29 ................ by 29 June.

文字答案：

BRYSON:? And then I think you need to think about ways of representing interview data. Have a look at Sight and Sound by Kate Oakwell.

AMINA:? Sight and Sound.

BRYSON:? Then you know I’m going away on holiday next week . . .

AMINA:? Yes.

BRYSON:? So when you’ve made the changes I suggest you show the work to your Support Tutor.

AMINA:? Support Tutor . . . right. . .

BRYSON:? Then you do the proof reading . . .

AMINA:? Proof reading . . . uh-huh. When by, do you think?

27題的答案是sight and sound，極容易寫成site或cite，讀音一致但是意思差很遠。28和29題詞匯有一定難度，尤其是28題不可以漏寫Support，這些會帶來不少麻煩。

總體來說，正版劍3語速并不快，考點也比較清晰。但是會出現(xiàn)個別難度較高的詞匯，需要重點注意。
