本書是專為普高學生編寫之英語學習書籍。全書收錄五十篇短文，針對大考中心出題趨勢來設計考題。本書內容分為三部分：

(一)克漏字（20回）：
前十回各含5題克漏字測驗，後十回則為10題。一般坊間的克漏字題型易獨偏重文法的測驗，然克漏字題型測驗重點不僅於此，故本書引導讀者注意上下文意的連貫與語氣的流暢，藉由不同的選項來思考並推斷出正確答案。編者設計選項時，除了考慮其誘答性之外，務求合乎搭配(collocation)原則，避免造成讀者錯誤學習。

(二)文意選填（15回）：
每回均含10題文意選填題目。文意選填亦為克漏字的一種題型，不同的是每題並未附有四個選項，而是將答案均置於同一欄內讓讀者選填。文意選填著重測驗文章的文意理解與文章連貫性的掌握。

(三)篇章結構（15回）：
每回均含4題篇章結構題目。篇章結構測驗考生對文章結構的理解，著重句子間的邏輯與連貫性。

除上述三種題型，每回皆附2～3題引導式翻譯及4～5個選自文章中的字彙補充。翻譯題的設計旨在挑出文章中重要之句型或固定用法(fixed expressions)，期盼讀者能從不同類型的文章中習得多元的英文表達以加強寫作能力。字彙補充則挑出文章中困難或重要的生字片語詳加注解並附例句，希望讀者能吸收更多的單字與片語。

克漏字、文意選填及篇章結構三種題型有其共通性，讀者若能注意上下文的線索及語意的適切性，答題必無往不利，語言能力也自然能有所提升。
