Section C Compound Dictation
答案解析
36. 答案：noteworthy
解析：此處需要形容詞，修飾名詞benefits。該詞為多音節形容詞，表示“顯著的，值得注意的”，其比較級或最高級用“more/most+原級”形式。后綴-worthy構成的形容詞，一般表示“值得……的”，類似結構的單詞還有trustworthy（值得信賴的），praiseworthy（值得表揚的）等。
37. 答案：occurred
解析：注意occur的過去分詞、現在分詞和名詞都應先雙寫字母r，再加以變化。
38. 答案：host
解析：a host of為固定搭配，表示“一大群許多”，后面跟可數名詞的復數形式。
39. 答案：impaired
解析：此處需要形容詞或名詞修飾fertility，與or前的liver damages構成并列結構。故若只聽到impair也可知要補上-ed，表示“受損的，（能力）減弱的”。注意air不要誤寫成are。
40. 答案：previous
解析：此處需要形容詞，修飾名詞reports。該詞意為“以前的”。
41. 答案：fend
解析：根據前面的help可知，此處需要動詞原形，且能與介詞off搭配。fend off表示“抵擋，避開”。
42. 答案：overestimated
解析：由前面的have been可知該詞為分詞形式，故不要漏了詞尾的-d。注意“over+v./n./adj.”表示“過去/過量/過分……”，反義詞一般為“under+v./n./adj.”，表示“……不足”。
43. 答案：annual
解析：此處需要形容詞，修飾meeting。注意不要忘記雙寫字母n。
44. 標準答案：The Heart Association advises that alcohol, if consumed at all, should be limited to one drink per day for women and two per day for men
聽音關鍵：Heart Association, advise, alcohol, consumed, limited, one, per day, women, two, men
答案重構：The Heart Association advises that women should be limited to one alcoholic drink every day and men two
畫龍點睛：注意，advise后跟that引導的從句時，從句使用虛擬語氣，即謂語使用“should+動詞原形”的形式，改寫時也是一樣。記錄原句時，要注意if consumed at all為插入成分，前后應用逗號隔開。
45. 標準答案：interviewed family members about the deceased men's drinking habits and then studied alcohol's effect on their blood vessels
聽音關鍵：interviewed, family members, deceased, drinking habits, studied, alcohol's effect, vessels
答案重構：asked family members about those dead men's drinking habits and studied alcohol's effect on their blood vessels
畫龍點睛：man與men在發音上極為相似，但是根據后半句的their判斷，應為復數形式。deceased可以替換為簡單的dead。
46. 標準答案：The more people drank, the more likely they were to have suffered a fatal heart attack
聽音關鍵：more, drank, more likely, were to, suffered, fatal, heart attack
答案重構：people who drank more were more likely to suffer a fatal heart attack
畫龍點睛：在聽記原文時，注意“the more...the more”的結構。
