剑三篇

剑3出版时间较早，因此出题点较现在来看有些不太一样，尤其是现在盗版碟中的录音，语速尤其快，这是由于剑3正版只有磁带的缘故。在题目上剑3的难度并不大。

其中test 4 section 3是较难的一篇。这篇是讨论学生所写论文的修改。题型是选择+搭配+填空题。第一个难点出现在第3题。

23     Amina was surprised because she

A     thought it was bad.

B     wrote it quickly.

C     found it difficult to do.

此题和上一题距离非常近，在做题时极容易由于还在思考上一题的答案而忽略此题的答案。其次此题的文字答案是That's amazing because I really didn't find it a bit easy to write...这边surprise和amaze的同意互换相当有难度。而选项B wrote it quickly中的wrote，非常容易成为干扰选项。

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.
