威威老師的閱讀教室:學測克漏字攻略 (GSAT Cloze Test Strategy)
Section 1:克漏字題型分析 (Cloze Test Analysis)
1.1 什麼是克漏字?
克漏字 (Cloze Test) 是學測必考題型。一篇短文中有 4-6 個空格,每個空格有 4 個選項,你需要選出最適合的答案。
1.2 考點分布
| 考點類型 | 佔比 | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| 文法 (Grammar) | ~40% | 時態、語態、主詞動詞一致、關係代名詞 |
| 字彙 (Vocabulary) | ~30% | 字義辨析、近義字、字首字根 |
| 片語 (Phrases) | ~15% | 固定搭配、介系詞片語 |
| 語意/邏輯 (Logic) | ~15% | 上下文判斷、連接詞選擇 |
1.3 常見陷阱
- 似是而非的選項:看起來合理但不合語境
- 字義相近的字:preserve vs. conserve, affect vs. effect
- 時態陷阱:前後文時態不一致
- 片語搭配錯誤:make a decision (O) / do a decision (X)
Section 2:解題策略 (Solving Strategies)
2.1 四步解題法
Step 1:先讀全文(不要看到空格就猜!)
→ 掌握文章主旨和語境
→ 了解時態、語氣、主題
Step 2:判斷空格類型
→ 文法空格?(看前後文的時態、單複數)
→ 字彙空格?(看上下文意思)
→ 片語空格?(看固定搭配)
→ 語意空格?(看邏輯關係)
Step 3:看前後文線索
→ 前一句和後一句說什麼?
→ 這個空格應該是正面還是負面?
→ 應該是轉折還是延續?
Step 4:用刪去法
→ 先刪掉確定不對的選項
→ 在剩下的選項中比較
2.2 判斷空格類型的技巧
| 線索 | 空格類型可能是 |
|---|---|
| 空格前有介系詞 | 可能考片語或動名詞 |
| 空格前有 to | 可能考原形 V 或是名詞 |
| 空格在子句開頭 | 可能考連接詞或關係代名詞 |
| 選項是同一字的不同時態 | 考時態 |
| 選項是意思相近的字 | 考字彙辨析 |
| 選項是不同的連接詞 | 考邏輯關係 |
Section 3:常考文法點 (Key Grammar Points)
3.1 時態判斷
| 信號字 | 時態 |
|---|---|
| yesterday, last week, ago | 過去式 (Simple Past) |
| since 2020, for three years, already, yet | 現在完成式 (Present Perfect) |
| now, right now, at the moment | 現在進行式 (Present Continuous) |
| tomorrow, next week, will | 未來式 (Future) |
| by the time, before + 過去時間 | 過去完成式 (Past Perfect) |
3.2 主詞動詞一致 (Subject-Verb Agreement)
- The list of items is long.(主詞是 list,不是 items)
- Each student has a book.(each + 單數動詞)
- Neither Tom nor his friends are coming.(就近原則)
3.3 關係代名詞 (Relative Pronouns)
| 先行詞 | 關係代名詞 |
|---|---|
| 人 | who / whom / that |
| 物/動物 | which / that |
| 人或物的所有格 | whose |
3.4 連接詞 (Conjunctions)
| 連接詞 | 邏輯關係 |
|---|---|
| because / since / as | 因果(因) |
| although / though / even though | 讓步(雖然) |
| however / nevertheless | 轉折 |
| moreover / furthermore / in addition | 遞增 |
| therefore / thus / consequently | 因果(果) |
| unless = if…not | 除非 |
3.5 V-ing vs. to V
| 用法 | V-ing | to V |
|---|---|---|
| 當主詞 | Swimming is fun. | To swim is fun. |
| enjoy / finish / avoid | enjoy swimming | X |
| want / decide / hope | X | want to swim |
| remember | remember doing(記得做過) | remember to do(記得要去做) |
| stop | stop doing(停止做) | stop to do(停下來去做) |
Section 4:五篇克漏字模擬題 (Five Cloze Test Practices)
克漏字第 1 篇:The Art of Listening
Listening is one of the most important communication skills, yet it is often the most (1) . Many people believe that they are good listeners, but in reality, they are simply waiting for their turn to speak. True listening requires full attention and a genuine (2) to understand the other person’s perspective.
Studies have shown that the average person remembers only about 25 to 50 percent of what they hear. This means that a significant amount of information is lost during everyday conversations. The problem is not that people cannot hear—it is that they do not (3) actively.
Active listening involves several key techniques. First, give the speaker your full attention by (4) eye contact and putting away distractions such as your phone. Second, show that you are listening by nodding or using verbal cues like “I see” or “Go on.” Finally, paraphrase what the speaker has said to (5) that you have understood correctly. For example, you might say, “So what you’re saying is…”
When we practice active listening, we not only understand others better but also build stronger relationships. In a world where everyone wants to be heard, being a good listener is a rare and (6) skill.

5. (A) confirm

克漏字第 2 篇:The Power of Habit
Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to break a bad habit? The answer lies in the way our brains (1) information. When we repeat an action many times, our brain creates a neural pathway that makes the behavior automatic. This process is known as “habit formation.”
Charles Duhigg, the author of “The Power of Habit,” explains that every habit consists of three parts: the cue, the routine, and the reward. The cue is the (2) that triggers the habit. For example, feeling stressed might be the cue that leads someone to eat junk food. The routine is the behavior itself—eating the junk food. The reward is the temporary (3) that the behavior brings.
Understanding this loop is the first step toward changing a habit. Duhigg suggests that instead of trying to (4) the habit entirely, we should replace the routine while keeping the same cue and reward. (5) , if stress causes you to eat junk food, you could replace eating with going for a walk. The cue (stress) and the reward (feeling better) remain the same, but the routine becomes healthier.
The key to success is consistency. Research shows that it takes an average of 66 days for a new behavior to (6) automatic. So be patient with yourself—change takes time, but it is definitely possible.

Urban farming refers to the practice of growing food in or around cities. This can (3) many forms, from rooftop gardens and community plots to vertical farms that use hydroponic technology to grow plants without soil. One of the biggest advantages of urban farming is that it reduces the distance food needs to travel from farm to table, which means fresher produce and (4) carbon emissions from transportation.
In Taipei, several urban farming initiatives (5) in recent years. Schools have started rooftop gardens where students learn about agriculture while growing their own vegetables. Some restaurants even maintain small gardens on their premises to supply fresh herbs and vegetables directly to their kitchens.
(6) urban farming alone cannot solve the global food crisis, it represents an important step toward more sustainable and resilient food systems. By bringing food production closer to where people live, we can create healthier communities and a healthier planet.

克漏字第 4 篇:The Lost Art of Handwriting
In today’s digital age, most people type on keyboards or tap on screens rather than write by hand. While technology has made communication faster and more (1) , some researchers worry that the decline of handwriting may have negative effects on learning and memory.
Studies have consistently shown that taking notes by hand is (2) effective than typing for retaining information. When students write by hand, they cannot write as fast as someone types, so they are forced to (3) the information and summarize it in their own words. This additional cognitive effort leads to deeper processing and better long-term memory.
Handwriting also plays an important role in early childhood development. Learning to form letters by hand helps children develop fine motor skills and recognize letters more quickly. Brain imaging studies have shown that writing by hand (4) more areas of the brain than typing, including areas associated with learning and memory.
Despite these benefits, many schools are (5) less time to handwriting instruction. Some education systems have even removed cursive writing from their curricula entirely. This trend (6) concern among educators who believe that handwriting is a fundamental skill that should not be abandoned.

克漏字第 5 篇:Volunteer Tourism
Volunteer tourism, or “voluntourism,” has become (1) popular in recent years. Many young people choose to spend their vacations helping others in developing countries—building schools, teaching English, or working in orphanages. While the intention behind this trend is (2) , critics argue that voluntourism may sometimes do more harm than good.
One major concern is that short-term volunteer projects can create (3) on local communities. When volunteers arrive for just a few weeks, local workers may lose job opportunities. For example, a group of volunteers building a school might take work away from local construction workers who need the (4) . Additionally, volunteers often lack the skills needed for the tasks they are assigned, which can lead to poorly constructed buildings or ineffective teaching.
Another problem is the “orphanage tourism” phenomenon. In some countries, orphanages have been set up (5) to attract volunteers and their donations. Children in these facilities may not actually be orphans—they may have been separated from their families simply to generate income from well-meaning tourists.
This does not mean that all volunteer tourism is bad. When it is done (6) , with proper training, long-term commitment, and genuine respect for local communities, it can create positive change. The key is to do thorough research before signing up and to choose organizations that prioritize the needs of the local community over the experience of the volunteer.
