1. Overview of the Mock Paper Structure | 模拟试卷结构概览
The mock paper comprises four sections, mirroring the style of an Eduqas unit test: Section A tests discrete vocabulary and grammar through a match-up and a verb conjugation gap-fill. Section B presents two short reading texts — a travel blog extract and a hotel advertisement — with comprehension questions in English and true/false statements. Section C contains two translation tasks: two sentences from English into Spanish and a short paragraph from Spanish into English. Section D is a 90-word guided writing task asking candidates to describe a past holiday. The paper is designed to be completed in 45 minutes and is marked out of 50.
模拟卷共分为四个部分,贴合 Eduqas 单元测试的风格:第一部分通过配对题和动词变位填空题测试离散词汇与语法;第二部分提供两篇简短阅读材料——一篇旅行博客节选和一则酒店广告,并配有英文理解题和正误判断题;第三部分包含两道翻译任务:两个英文句子译成西班牙语以及一个西语短段落译成英文;第四部分是一道要求考生描述一次过去假期的90词引导式写作题。本试卷设计在45分钟内完成,满分为50分。
2. Section A: Vocabulary Match-Up | 第一部分:词汇配对
In this task, you are given six Spanish terms related to travel and accommodation on the left and six English equivalents in a jumbled order on the right. Example items include ‘alojamiento’, ‘equipaje’, ‘retraso’ and ‘tarjeta de embarque’. The correct pairings are: alojamiento — accommodation, equipaje — luggage, retraso — delay, tarjeta de embarque — boarding pass, despegue — take-off, and habitación individual — single room. Pay close attention to cognates such as ‘retraso’ (delay), which shares its root with the English word ‘retard’ and is often misidentified as ‘return’. The exam expects you to recognise these words in context, not merely as isolated items, so always link them mentally to a sentence.
本任务要求你将左侧六个与旅行和住宿相关的西班牙语术语和右侧打乱顺序的六个英文对应词配对。示例条目包括 ‘alojamiento’, ‘equipaje’, ‘retraso’ 和 ‘tarjeta de embarque’。正确的配对是:alojamiento — accommodation(住宿),equipaje — luggage(行李),retraso — delay(延误),tarjeta de embarque — boarding pass(登机牌),despegue — take-off(起飞),habitación individual — single room(单人间)。特别注意像 ‘retraso’ 这样的同源词,它与英文词 ‘retard’ 同根,却常被误认为是“回程”。考试要求你在语境中识别这些词汇,而不仅仅是孤立记忆,因此务必将它们与句子建立心理联系。
3. Section A: Verb Conjugation – Preterite vs Imperfect | 第一部分:动词变位 – 简单过去时 vs 过去未完成时
A gap-fill exercise asks you to conjugate the verbs in brackets into the correct past tense within a narrative about a past trip. A typical sentence reads: ‘El año pasado yo ___ (ir) a Barcelona y ___ (hacer) mucho sol.’ The answer here is ‘fui’ and ‘hacía’ — ‘fui’ because it marks a completed action in a specific time frame (preterite), while ‘hacía’ describes the weather setting in the background (imperfect). Another example: ‘Mientras ___ (esperar) en el aeropuerto, ___ (ver) un vuelo despegar.’ The correct forms are ‘esperaba’ and ‘vi’, illustrating the interruption of an ongoing action by a sudden event. The Eduqas mark scheme penalises endings errors heavily, so always double-check subject agreement and irregular stems like ‘tuv-‘, ‘pus-‘, ‘estuv-‘ and ‘anduv-‘.
一道填空选择题要求你将括号内的动词变位为正确的过去时态,填入关于一次过去旅行的叙述中。典型句子是:’El año pasado yo ___ (ir) a Barcelona y ___ (hacer) mucho sol.’ 此处答案应为 ‘fui’ 和 ‘hacía’ —— 用 ‘fui’ 是因为在明确的时间范围内完成的动作(简单过去时),而 ‘hacía’ 描述背景天气(过去未完成时)。另一个例句:’Mientras ___ (esperar) en el aeropuerto, ___ (ver) un vuelo despegar.’ 正确形式为 ‘esperaba’ 和 ‘vi’,展示了持续性动作被突发动作打断的用法。Eduqas 评分标准对词尾错误扣分很重,因此务必检查主谓一致以及不规则词干,如 ‘tuv-‘, ‘pus-‘, ‘estuv-‘ 和 ‘anduv-‘。
4. Section B: Reading Comprehension – Travel Blog | 第二部分:阅读理解 – 旅行博客
The first text is a short blog entry about a school trip to Madrid. It reads: ‘El verano pasado, fuimos en autocar a Madrid. El viaje duró seis horas, pero valió la pena. Visitamos el Museo del Prado y paseamos por el Retiro. Lo que más me gustó fue la paella de marisco que comimos cerca de la Plaza Mayor.’ Comprehension questions include: ‘How did the group travel?’ (by coach) and ‘What did the writer like most?’ (the seafood paella). To identify details efficiently, scan for proper nouns and key verbs in the preterite. Do not copy whole chunks; summarise succinctly in English. Common traps: ‘autocar’ is not a car but a coach, and ‘valió la pena’ means ‘it was worth it’ — a high-frequency idiom on the specification.
第一篇短文是一篇关于学校组织前往马德里旅行的博客节选。内容为:’El verano pasado, fuimos en autocar a Madrid. El viaje duró seis horas, pero valió la pena. Visitamos el Museo del Prado y paseamos por el Retiro. Lo que más me gustó fue la paella de marisco que comimos cerca de la Plaza Mayor.’ 理解性问题包括:“旅行团如何出行?”(乘长途客车)和“作者最喜欢什么?”(海鲜饭)。为高效定位细节,可以扫描专有名词和简单过去时的关键动词。不要整句抄袭;用英语简洁概括。常见陷阱:’autocar’ 并非小汽车而是长途客车,’valió la pena’ 意为“很值得”——这是考纲中的高频习语。
5. Section B: Reading Comprehension – Anuncio de Hotel | 第二部分:阅读理解 – 酒店广告
The second text is a hotel advertisement: ‘Hotel Sol y Playa ofrece habitaciones dobles con vistas al mar desde 80 € por noche. Se admiten mascotas y hay conexión wifi gratuita en todo el establecimiento. El restaurante sirve platos típicos regionales y está abierto hasta las 23:00. Cerca del hotel encontrará una parada de autobús que conecta con el centro histórico cada 15 minutos.’ A true/false statement ‘El hotel está lejos de la parada de autobús’ is false because the text says it is nearby. Pay attention to quantifiers and connectors like ‘cerca de’ and ‘gratuita’. In your answers, translate key phrases precisely: ‘se admiten mascotas’ means ‘pets are allowed’, and ‘cada 15 minutos’ indicates the bus frequency.
第二篇材料是一则酒店广告:’Hotel Sol y Playa ofrece habitaciones dobles con vistas al mar desde 80 € por noche. Se admiten mascotas y hay conexión wifi gratuita en todo el establecimiento. El restaurante sirve platos típicos regionales y está abierto hasta las 23:00. Cerca del hotel encontrará una parada de autobús que conecta con el centro histórico cada 15 minutos.’ 正误判断题“酒店离公交站很远”答案为假,因为文中写的是附近。注意数量词和连接词,如 ‘cerca de’ 和 ‘gratuita’。作答时,精确翻译关键短语:’se admiten mascotas’ 意为“允许携带宠物”,’cada 15 minutos’ 表示公交车频率。
6. Section C: Translation into Spanish | 第三部分:英译西
The first translation item is: ‘Last summer I stayed in a hotel near the beach. The room was very clean and the staff were friendly.’ The corrected model version reads: ‘El verano pasado me alojé en un hotel cerca de la playa. La habitación era muy limpia y el personal era amable.’ Notice the preterite ‘me alojé’ for a completed stay, and the imperfect ‘era’ for descriptions. The second sentence: ‘We used to go to the beach every day because it was sunny.’ This requires the imperfect ‘Íbamos a la playa todos los días porque hacía sol.’ Students often erroneously use ‘fuimos’, but the habituality demands imperfect. Check adjective agreement: ‘limpia’ agrees with ‘habitación’, and ‘amable’ for staff remains singular.
第一个翻译条目为:“去年夏天我住在海滩附近的酒店。房间非常干净,工作人员很友好。” 修改后的标准译文是:’El verano pasado me alojé en un hotel cerca de la playa. La habitación era muy limpia y el personal era amable.’ 注意使用简单过去时 ‘me alojé’ 表示已完成的住宿,以及描述性未完成过去时 ‘era’。第二句:“我们过去每天都去海滩因为天气晴朗。” 这需要使用未完成过去时 ‘Íbamos a la playa todos los días porque hacía sol.’ 学生常错误使用 ‘fuimos’,但此处习惯性动作要求用未完成时。检查形容词一致性:’limpia’ 与 ‘habitación’ 性数一致,而 ‘personal’ 作为集合名词,’amable’ 保持单数。
7. Section C: Translation into English | 第三部分:西译英
The Spanish-to-English paragraph reads: ‘Durante mis vacaciones en Chile, probé muchos platos típicos como las empanadas y el ceviche. Pasamos dos semanas recorriendo el desierto de Atacama y al final del viaje compramos recuerdos en un mercado artesanal. Fue una experiencia inolvidable.’ A strong translation is: ‘During my holiday in Chile, I tried many typical dishes such as empanadas and ceviche. We spent two weeks travelling around the Atacama Desert and at the end of the trip we bought souvenirs in a craft market. It was an unforgettable experience.’ Look out for the false friend ‘recorriendo’ (travelling around, not recording) and the phrase ‘al final del viaje’. The Eduqas exam rewards fluency; a literal translation of ‘artesanal’ as ‘artisan’ is acceptable, but ‘craft’ sounds more natural.
西译英段落是:’Durante mis vacaciones en Chile, probé muchos platos típicos como las empanadas y el ceviche. Pasamos dos semanas recorriendo el desierto de Atacama y al final del viaje compramos recuerdos en un mercado artesanal. Fue una experiencia inolvidable.’ 一份出色的译文为:’During my holiday in Chile, I tried many typical dishes such as empanadas and ceviche. We spent two weeks travelling around the Atacama Desert and at the end of the trip we bought souvenirs in a craft market. It was an unforgettable experience.’ 注意假朋友 ‘recorriendo’(游览,而非录制)以及短语 ‘al final del viaje’。Eduqas 考试看重流畅度;’artesanal’ 直译为 ‘artisan’ 可以接受,但 ‘craft’ 听起来更自然。
8. Section D: Writing Task – 90-word Essay | 第四部分:写作任务 – 90词短文
The prompt states: ‘Describe tus últimas vacaciones. Incluye información sobre el destino, el alojamiento, las actividades y tu opinión personal.’ A well-structured response might begin: ‘El verano pasado fui a Ibiza con mis amigos. Nos alojamos en un apartamento moderno cerca de la playa. Durante el día nadábamos en el mar y tomábamos el sol. Por la noche, salimos a bailar en las discotecas famosas. Lo pasé genial y me gustaría volver el año que viene.’ This model uses a mix of tenses: preterite for completed actions (‘fui’, ‘nos alojamos’, ‘salimos’), imperfect for repeated activities (‘nadábamos’, ‘tomábamos’) and a conditional expression for future wishes. Always include at least two opinions and justify them, as required by the mark scheme.
写作提示为:“描述你上一次假期。要包括目的地、住宿、活动和个人意见等信息。” 一篇结构得当的应答可以这样开头:’El verano pasado fui a Ibiza con mis amigos. Nos alojamos en un apartamento moderno cerca de la playa. Durante el día nadábamos en el mar y tomábamos el sol. Por la noche, salimos a bailar en las discotecas famosas. Lo pasé genial y me gustaría volver el año que viene.’ 该范文混合了时态:已完成的动作用简单过去时(’fui’, ‘nos alojamos’, ‘salimos’),重复性活动用过去未完成时(’nadábamos’, ‘tomábamos’),并对未来愿望使用了条件式。按照评分标准,务必修辞至少两个观点并说明理由。
9. Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them | 常见错误及避免方法
One of the most frequent errors is confusing ‘ser’ and ‘estar’ when describing location. Use ‘estar’ for location: ‘El hotel está en el centro’, not ‘es en el centro’. The adjective ‘divertido’ changes meaning with the verb: ‘ser divertido’ means to be a fun person, while ‘estar divertido’ means to feel amused. Another typical slip is misplacing object pronouns: ‘Lo pasé bien’ is correct, not ‘Pasé lo bien’. Also, watch out for the gender of nouns — ‘el problema’ is masculine, and ‘la mano’ is feminine. When constructing negatives, always place ‘no’ before the verb and duplicate negatives with ‘nunca’, ‘nada’, ‘nadie’: ‘No vi a nadie’, not ‘No vi alguien’. Finally, avoid anglicisms: ‘realizar’ means ‘to carry out’, not ‘to realise’, which would be ‘darse cuenta’.
最常见的错误之一是描述位置时混淆 ‘ser’ 和 ‘estar’。位置必须用 ‘estar’:’El hotel está en el centro’,而不是 ‘es en el centro’。形容词 ‘divertido’ 随动词改变含义:’ser divertido’ 表示是一个有趣的人,而 ‘estar divertido’ 表示感到开心。另一个典型错误是宾语代词错序:’Lo pasé bien’ 才是对的,而非 ‘Pasé lo bien’。同时,注意名词的性 —— ‘el problema’ 是阳性,’la mano’ 是阴性。构建否定句时,务必将 ‘no’ 置于动词之前,并与 ‘nunca’, ‘nada’, ‘nadie’ 双重否定:’No vi a nadie’,而非 ‘No vi alguien’。最后,规避英式表达:’realizar’ 意为“执行”,不是“意识到”,后者应用 ‘darse cuenta’。
10. Exam Tips for the Unit Test | 单元测试应试技巧
Divide your time wisely: allocate roughly 10 minutes to Section A, 12 minutes to reading, 10 minutes to translation and 13 minutes to writing. For the reading section, read the questions before the text — this primes your brain to pick out relevant information. In translation, write a quick literal draft first and then polish for naturalness; Eduqas tolerates minor misspellings only if meaning remains clear. During the writing task, underline the bullet points in the prompt and tick them off as you cover them to ensure you hit every content point. Leave two minutes at the end to scan for gender and verb ending errors. Use the process of elimination in multiple-choice tasks: cross out obviously wrong options and then select among the remaining possibilities.
合理分配时间:大致分配10分钟给第一部分,12分钟给阅读,10分钟给翻译,13分钟给写作。在阅读部分,先读问题再读文章——这会让大脑预先选定相关信息。翻译时,先打一个直译草稿,再润色使其自然;Eduqas 只在意思仍清晰时容忍轻微拼写错误。写作时,用下划线标出提示中的要点,写一个划去一个,确保每个内容点都覆盖。最后留两分钟快速检查名词性和动词词尾错误。在选择题中使用排除法:划掉明显错误的选项,再从剩余选项中挑选。
11. Vocabulary Boost: Essential Travel Terms | 词汇提升:核心旅游词汇

12. Practice Makes Perfect: Further Resources | 熟能生巧:更多资源
Reuse this mock exam as a revision tool by covering the model answers and attempting the paper under timed conditions. Record any errors you make in a dedicated mistakes log and rewrite the corrected sentences without looking. For listening practice, search for short travel podcasts in Spanish and note down the main points; even five minutes a day sharpens your ear for the Eduqas audio extracts. To internalise grammar, create flashcards with a preterite stem on one side and an example sentence on the other. Additionally, exchange writing tasks with a study partner and peer-assess using the official mark scheme descriptors. Consistency is key — aim for focused 20-minute Spanish sessions daily rather than last-minute cramming.
将这份模拟卷重新用作复习工具:遮住标准答案,在限时条件下独立作答。将所犯错误记录在专门的错题本中,并在不看原文的情况下重写改正后的句子。就听力练习而言,搜索西班牙语短篇旅行播客,记下要点;哪怕每天只听五分钟,也能磨炼你对 Eduqas 音频材料的耳朵。为内化语法,制作抽认卡,一面写简单过去时词干,另一面写例句。此外,与学习伙伴交换写作任务,按照官方评分标准描述互评。坚持是关键——目标是每天专注进行20分钟的西班牙语短训,而非考试前临时抱佛脚。
