(A)執行 (B)吸引 (C)對…進行創新 (D)分析
2. (A) concerning (B) to have concerned (C) having concerned (D) concerned
本題考的是關係子句的使用,由以下兩個子句組成:
1. This year, CEBIT Bilişim Eurasia aims to attract a diverse crowd into the e-society debate.
2. CEBIT Bilişim Eurasia especially concerns the use of Internet technologies in government.
這兩個子句的先行詞是CEBIT Bilişim Eurasia. 要合併的話,可得到以下的形容詞子句:
This year, CEBIT Bilişim Eurasia, which especially concerns the use of Internet technologies in government, aims to attract a diverse crowd into the e-society debate.
本題的難點在於形容詞子句的which especially concerns the use of Internet technologies in government能夠變換位置,若認知到這一點,又瞭解到CEBIT Bilişim Eurasia其實扮演了先行詞的角色的話,就可猜出which especially concerns其實是可以替換成動名詞形式的,因此只需要將關係代名詞which 去除,再將concerns 替換成concerning即可。
3. (A) much as (B) similar (C) as well as (D) like
(A)雖然、儘管 (B)相似的 (C)以及 (D)就像

(D)應用到(不定詞形式)
7. (A) is staging (B) was staged (C) will be staged (D) has staged
本句提到了TUYAP Beylikdüzü Fair這個籌劃地點,但之前的句子並未提及,代表在這個地點舉辦首腦會議,屬於尚未發生的未來事項。再來可看看各個選項,只有(B)(C)選項屬於被動時態,而籌劃地點肯定藉著人為因素完成。因此正解必定是(B)或(C)。而本空格後方提到了this year,而如果在年底以前短短幾個月後,再籌劃首腦會議的話,也是有可能的,因此(C)為正解。若正解是(B),那後方應該加上last year或several years ago之類才對。
Denver police conducted a search on Tuesday of a house at 720 S. Colfax. Officer Vincent Sully says he noticed someone moving items from a vehicle into the house. Many of the items matched the description of those recently stolen from area homes. “This fact,” says Officer Sully, “provided reasonable belief that this was our suspect.” According to Federal Law such suspicion is grounds to carry out a search. Police Chief Mancini explains, “The circumstances did not require the authorization of a search warrant.” The suspect’s lawyer plans to challenge this view, claiming that the search was illegal. It is unlikely that this argument will be accepted and the charges will most likely not be dropped.
Upon conducting the search, officers found what they were looking for, and more. In the suspect’s vehicle they found three flat screen television identical to those that disappeared in Sunday’s Water Street robberies. Inside the suspect’s residence police found thousands of dollars’ worth of allegedly stolen goods. Among the many items confiscated in the seizure were a ski mask and a black painted crowbar. Witnesses have reported seeing a thief in a similar mask break in to cars and houses with a crowbar. Possession of these objects could connect the suspect with those other burglaries. The suspect was arrested and an awaiting trial.
星期二這天,在720 S科爾法克斯的一處房屋中,丹佛警方主導了一項搜查。一位名為文森.蘇力的警員說他注意到有人從車輛搬運東西至屋子內部,而且這些東西中,有不少都和該地區其他住家最近遭竊的物品相符。蘇力警官說:“這項事實已提供了合理證據,這一家的物主就是我們盯上的嫌犯了。”,根據聯邦法律,這種懷疑已足夠作為進行搜查的理由了。警察局長曼茨尼解釋道:“這位嫌犯的辯護律師打算挑戰這個觀點,還宣稱這種搜查方式不合法,看來這個論點不太可能會被接受,而且這種指控要撤銷的可能性幾乎微乎其微。”。
警方進行搜查的時候,發現到他們原先找尋的物品,而且還越來越多。在這位嫌犯的車輛中,警方找出了三台平板電視,而且這幾台電視,和先前在Sunday’s Water Street發生的搶劫案中遺失的電視完全雷同。警方又在嫌犯的住處中,找到了涉嫌遭竊的物品,價格高達好幾千美元。警方稍後扣押了這些物品之後沒收,當中還包含了滑雪面罩,以及用油漆塗上顏色的鐵撬棍。根據那些目擊者的報告,嫌犯戴著類似的面罩上車,潛入房子的時候還攜帶著鐵撬棍。恰好嫌犯也持有這些物品,因此警方能夠將這位嫌犯和其他盜竊案連接起來,將這位嫌犯逮捕,讓他等待審判的到來。

四、Essay(30分)

How does epidemic outbreak impact on the role of police officers?
範例文章
After the outbreak of COVID-19 had taken place, police officers began to guard the borders to prevent virus from invading Taiwan. At the same time, certain areas like red light districts had been proved breaches of the pandemic. That’s why police officers chose bars and clubs to scrutinize the process of interior hygiene. Since officers were entrusted to protect citizens’ security, including the facet of health. Therefore, police officers had to risk their health in getting exposed to some spaces full of virus. And as we expected, some officers were infected after being deployed to these locations.
When officers are deployed to spots with numerous customers and staff, despite of their high vigilance, there are still possible chances when virus are allowed to invade into respiratory systems of police officers. After all, not all the crowds obey regulations of wearing masks and getting vaccinated. If an officer encounters a customer who has never got vaccinated and is not aware of his potentially serious symptom, the police would be more likely to get infected. After this officer returns to his squad, other members would face the potential problem as well, which is chain reaction. When the majority of members get quarantined and undergo treatment, gangsters would dare to commit crimes. Isn’t this condition one of the serious consequence common citizens might face? Obviously, there must be some flaws during the process of deployment, so the prior goal is to help officers be familiar with more knowledge about pandemic prevention.
