第1題

英譯中:請將下面這段英文譯成正確、流暢的中文。(20 分) In contemporary society, the relentless pace of life and growing preoccupation with material aspirations and individual objectives have led many to overlook the essence of gratitude. The efforts and kindness of others are frequently taken as givens, with expressions of appreciation or reciprocation becoming increasingly scarce. This shift has strained bonds with family and friends, and even the profound sense of indebtedness owed to one's parents can sometimes be disregarded. Technology's convenience has further fostered detachment, often replacing deep, face-to-face interactions with more superficial exchanges. Consequently, a culture of indifference and self-centeredness has taken root, normalizing ungrateful behavior and inviting a deeper contemplation of these evolving social dynamics.

參考解答(AI 生成,非官方)

  • 一、譯文(前半):在當代社會,生活步調持續加快,人們愈來愈執著於物質追求與個人目標,許多人因此忽略了感恩的本質。他人的付出與善意常被視為理所當然,表達感謝或設法回報的情形也日益少見。這種轉變使家人與朋友之間的關係趨於緊繃,甚至連對父母深切的虧欠之情,有時也會被置之不理。
  • 二、譯文(後半):科技帶來的便利進一步助長了疏離,往往以較為表面的往來取代深入的面對面互動。於是,一種冷漠與自我中心的文化已然扎根,使不知感恩的行為逐漸常態化,也促使人們更深刻地反思這些不斷演變的社會互動模式。
  • 三、關鍵詞處理:relentless pace of life 宜譯「生活步調持續加快」,比「無情的生活節奏」自然;preoccupation with 作「執著於、熱中於」;taken as givens 即「視為理所當然」;reciprocation 譯「回報、回饋」;indebtedness 指「虧欠之情」,不宜直譯為「負債」。翻譯時應依中文語感調整詞性,避免逐字硬譯。
  • 四、句構與語體:原文多為長句,翻譯時可依語意切分,重新安排主詞與動作,並以「於是」、「進而」等詞帶出因果。本段屬論說性散文,語體宜莊重而不艱澀,避免過度文言;同時保留由現象描述轉向文化批判的層次,先敘事、後歸結,以呈現原文論述邏輯。
  • 五、檢查重點:留意 gratitude 與 ungrateful 的前後呼應,譯文宜一致使用「感恩」與「不知感恩」;strained bonds 譯「關係緊繃」較「紐帶斷裂」貼切;face-to-face interactions 須保留「面對面」的具體意象。最後通讀全段,確認語氣連貫、無贅字與歐化句法。

第2題

中譯英:請將下面這段中文譯成正確、流暢的英文。(20 分) 自駕載客服務在廣泛投入應用之前仍面臨多項尚待解決的挑戰。首先, 安全性至關重要:自動駕駛系統必須能應對人類行為的不可預測性以及 複雜的城市環境,而這些都難以準確建模。此外,技術問題,例如惡劣 天氣對感測器精度的影響,也為穩定運行帶來挑戰。倫理與監管問題, 如事故責任的歸屬和乘客的數據隱私,也需重視。再者,許多城市的基 礎設施尚未準備好支持自動駕駛車隊。解決這些問題對於安全且有效地 推廣無人自駕載客服務至關重要。

參考解答(AI 生成,非官方)

  • 一、譯文(前半):Before self-driving passenger services can be widely deployed, several challenges remain to be resolved. First, safety is of paramount importance: autonomous driving systems must be able to cope with the unpredictability of human behavior and with complex urban environments, both of which are difficult to model accurately.
  • 二、譯文(中段):In addition, technical problems, such as the effect of severe weather on sensor accuracy, also pose challenges to stable operation. Ethical and regulatory issues, including the allocation of liability in accidents and the data privacy of passengers, likewise require serious attention.
  • 三、譯文(後段):Moreover, the infrastructure in many cities is not yet ready to support fleets of autonomous vehicles. Resolving these problems is essential if driverless passenger services are to be promoted safely and effectively.
  • 四、術語與搭配:自駕載客服務可譯 self-driving passenger services 或 autonomous ride-hailing services;責任歸屬宜用 allocation of liability;數據隱私為 data privacy;車隊為 fleet;感測器精度為 sensor accuracy。動詞搭配宜用 pose challenges to、cope with、be ready to support,避免中式英文直譯。
  • 五、語法檢查:「尚待解決」用 remain to be resolved;「至關重要」可用 is of paramount importance;「再者」以 Moreover 遞進。全段須維持正式書面語,注意可數名詞複數與冠詞,如 challenges、fleets、the infrastructure,並避免一句之中堆疊過多子句。

第3題

應用文撰寫:請根據下面的說明寫一封英文信。(20 分) 我國吸食毒品人口逐年增加,再犯率也長期居高不下,更令人擔心的是, 根據國家衛生研究院調查,學校本應該是最單純、最讓家長放心的環境, 但事實上毒品問題早已深入校園,請針對此現象寫一封投書媒體的英文 信,內含兩段,第一段說明處理此問題的迫切性,第二段提出你認為最 有效率的解決之道。

參考解答(AI 生成,非官方)

  • 一、格式與策略:投書媒體宜採正式書信格式,開頭用 Dear Editor,結尾以 Yours sincerely 署名。全文聚焦單一主張:第一段凸顯問題的急迫性,第二段提出最具效率的解方;語氣誠懇、訴求明確,避免情緒化指控或數據堆砌。
  • 二、開頭與第一段: Dear Editor, I am writing to draw public attention to the alarming spread of drugs on school campuses in Taiwan. According to a survey conducted by the National Health Research Institutes, drug use has penetrated the very environment that should be the safest for our children. With the number of users rising year by year and relapse rates remaining persistently high, the urgency of this issue can no longer be ignored.
  • 三、第二段(解決之道): In my view, the most efficient solution is a school-based prevention and support system that combines early screening, honest education and sustained counseling. Schools should work with health and law-enforcement agencies to identify at-risk students early, provide anonymous reporting channels, and offer long-term rehabilitation and family support rather than punishment alone. Only through such coordinated efforts can we keep drugs out of the classroom.
  • 四、結尾與用語提醒: Yours sincerely, [Name] 撰寫時應避免照搬題幹中文句構,改用英文慣用語,如 draw public attention to、at-risk students、coordinated efforts、early intervention。投書篇幅有限,論點須集中,勿同時處理教育、司法、家庭等過多面向,以免失焦。
  • 五、加分要點:可適度使用讓步與呼籲句式,如 It is true that punishment alone cannot solve the problem, but… 及 I urge parents, educators and policymakers to act without delay,使語氣具說服力;並以具體機制(篩檢、通報、輔導、復元)取代空泛口號。

第4題

英文作文:請根據下面說明寫一篇約300 字的英文作文。(40 分) It has been argued that social media influencers play a dominant role in shaping youth culture. Do you agree or disagree? Write an essay of approximately 300 words to support your answer with examples.

參考解答(AI 生成,非官方)

  • 一、審題與立場:題目要求就「社群媒體網紅是否主導形塑青年文化」表態。宜採「大致同意,但非絕對」的立場:先確立論點,再以實例支撐,並在文中讓步,指出家庭、同儕與學校仍具影響,使論述更周延,也展現批判思考。
  • 二、引言段:Few phenomena define contemporary youth culture as visibly as social media influencers. I largely agree that they play a dominant role in shaping how young people look, speak and aspire, although their influence is amplified rather than created by algorithms, and other agents such as family and school still matter.
  • 三、正文一(品味與消費):The most obvious influence is on taste and consumption. On Instagram, YouTube and TikTok, influencers showcase fashion hauls, makeup routines and travel itineraries that quickly become templates for teenage viewers. A single viral video can turn an obscure brand into a must-have item within days, and slang, memes and editing styles spread from creators to classrooms. Influencers thus function as a parallel curriculum of style, teaching young people what to desire and how to present themselves.
  • 四、正文二(價值與行為):Their influence extends to values and civic behavior. Many creators openly discuss mental health, study habits and career choices, offering reassurance that adolescents may not receive elsewhere; others promote fitness, reading or environmental awareness. Yet the same channels reward materialism, risky stunts and unrealistic body images, and sponsored content often blurs the line between advice and advertising.
  • 五、讓步與結論:Nevertheless, dominance should not be confused with monopoly. Parents, teachers and peers remain powerful, and influencers usually amplify trends that already circulate rather than invent them; algorithmic recommendation further decides which creators a teenager encounters. In conclusion, influencers are the most visible architects of youth culture today, but they are brokers of attention rather than its sole authors. Media literacy education, transparent sponsorship rules and open dialogue at home are therefore more useful than blanket condemnation.
  • 六、寫作提醒:全文約三百字,宜四至五段,主題句明確、例證具體;避免僅列優缺點而無立場,並以副詞如 largely、partly 精準調整主張強度,結尾回到可行的政策或教育建議。
