聖若瑟書院 St. Joseph's College (SJC)

2025-2026 Entrance Assessment Practice

1. 中文溝通及創意表達 (Chinese Communication & Creative Expression)

情境短講：準備一段約 2 分鐘的個人短講。

「適逢聖若瑟書院150周年校慶，學校與電車公司合作，推出了一架車身畫滿校園景色的『聖若瑟號』電車在港島行駛。假設你是這輛電車的導賞員，當電車經過中環時，你會如何向車上的乘客介紹SJC的『綠與白精神』(Green and White Spirit)？請結合電車和學校同樣擁有悠久歷史的特點，並提及你在小學時贏得4x100米接力賽冠軍的經歷，說明你對團隊精神的理解。」

對話討論：「有家長認為，像聖若瑟書院這樣的傳統名校，應該專注於學術成績，減少花在足球、音樂等課外活動的時間。你是否同意這個看法？請以你曾擔任『數學大使』以及是足球校隊成員的雙重身份，解釋學術與活動如何能互補不足，共同塑造一個全面的『若瑟夫』(Josephian)。」

2. English Reading, Comprehension & Storytelling

First, please read the following passage aloud.

St. Joseph's College believes that true success is not just about winning medals. It is about 'Labore et Virtute' - Labour and Virtue. This means working hard and being a good person. The historic North Block of our school, which has stood for over 100 years, has seen many generations of Josephians learn this lesson. They learn that helping a teammate who falls in a race is as important as winning. They discover that sharing knowledge in the library is as valuable as getting the top score. This is the 'Green and White Spirit': a community where everyone supports each other to become their best self.

Follow-up Questions:

1. The passage says helping a teammate is as important as winning. You won a 4x100m relay championship in primary school. Can you share an experience where your team showed great teamwork?

2. SJC offers many clubs and activities. You play the piano and have won awards. How do you think joining the school orchestra or music club can help you live the 'Green and White Spirit' mentioned in the passage?

Look at the four pictures below. They tell a story. Please tell the story in English in about 2 minutes.

🏫 → 🌳 → 🤝 → 💡

(Hint: The story is about a new SJC student feeling a bit lost (🏫), finding a quiet place on the beautiful campus (🌳), getting help and encouragement from a senior student (🤝), and finally having a great new idea for a school project (💡).)

3. 數理及解難 (Logic & Problem Solving)

問題一（幾何解難）：聖若瑟書院的校舍建築有許多美麗的拱形窗戶。想像一個拱形是由一個長方形和一個半圓形組成的。如果長方形的闊是1.4米，長是2米，那麼這個拱形窗戶的總周界是多少？(圓周率請用 22/7 計算)

問題二（邏輯推理）：你在小學時曾參加奧數比賽並獲獎。這是一條類似的題目：SJC有三個學會，分別是奧數、攀石和中國象棋學會。每位學生最少參加一個學會。已知有18人參加奧數，15人參加攀石，12人參加中國象棋。同時參加奧數和攀石的有5人，同時參加攀石和中國象棋的有4人，同時參加奧數和中國象棋的有3人。三個學會都參加的有2人。請問總共有多少位學生？

問題三（應用題）：你曾參與高爾夫球活動。一個高爾夫球手擊球，球的飛行時間 (t) 和它的初速度 (v) 及角度 (θ) 有關。但為簡化問題，假設在 SJC 的足球場上，你以每秒25米的速度踢出足球，而足球在空中飛行了4秒後落地。如果下一次你將踢球的力量增加了20%，假設飛行時間和力量成正比，那麼足球新的飛行時間會是多少秒？

4. 個人成長與學校生活 (Personal Growth & School Life)

Question 1: "We know you have many talents, like Olympiad Math and playing the piano. St. Joseph's College also has a very long history. If you could create a new Extra-Curricular Activity (ECA) that combines 'modern technology or math' with the 'school's history', what would it be? How would you attract other students to join?"

Question 2 (Chinese): 「你在校外學習日語和攀石，顯示你勇於嘗試新事物。聖若瑟書院鼓勵學生全面發展，除了讀書，也重視品德和社區服務。你認為『在攀石牆上學習到的事』和『在公益少年團裡學習到的事』，哪一樣對成為一個優秀的『若瑟夫』更重要？為什麼？」

Question 3 (Group Discussion): "Imagine your group is the SJC Student Union. The school has a new fund to improve the campus. You have two choices: A) Build a high-tech 'STEM Room' with 3D printers and robots. B) Renovate the Old Hall to better preserve its history and use it for cultural activities like drama and music. Which project would you choose? Please discuss with your group for 3 minutes and present your final decision with reasons."

九龍華仁書院 Wah Yan College, Kowloon (WYK)

2025-2026 Entrance Assessment Practice

1. 中文溝通及思維導圖 (Chinese Communication & Mind Mapping)

任務：準備一段約 2 分鐘的短講。

「九龍華仁書院為慶祝百年校慶，師生們用一萬條頸巾拼出『100』字樣，並將這些充滿暖意的頸巾送給長者，創造了世界紀錄。這個活動完美地展示了華仁『為人而為，與人同行』(Men for and with others) 的精神。請你分享一下，你在小學時作為公益少年團的一員，有沒有類似的、讓你感到自豪的服務經歷？你認為中學生可以如何發揮更大的創意，去幫助社區裡有需要的人？」

思維導圖任務：請用 2 分鐘時間，在這張紙上畫一個簡單的思維導圖，主題是「華仁的自由校風」。然後用 1 分鐘向我們解釋你的思維導圖。

(提示：你可以從「責任」、「時間管理」、「探索興趣」（如足球、羽毛球）和「服務他人」等角度思考。)

2. English Speaking & Creative Task

Individual Presentation: Please prepare a 1.5-minute speech on the following topic.

Topic: "An alumnus, Mr. Chan Long-shing, said that at Wah Yan, the school is very 'free', and students must learn to be responsible for their own choices. He had more time to read books and develop his hobby, football. As a member of your primary school's football and badminton teams, how will you use this freedom at Wah Yan to develop your talents and, at the same time, be a responsible student?"

Group Activity: Build the Tallest Tower

Task: "Your group has some paper cups and three pieces of string of different lengths. Without touching the cups with your hands, you must use only the strings to build the tallest possible tower in 5 minutes. This task requires teamwork, planning, and creative problem-solving. After the task, please share one difficulty your group faced and how you solved it together."

3. 數理及生活應用 (Mathematics & Real-life Application)

問題一（速度與時間）：在華仁的陸運會上，你參加了100米賽跑。你的目標是在15秒內完成。如果你前50米跑了8秒，那麼接下來的50米，你平均每秒最少要跑多少米，才能達到你的目標？

問題二（百分比應用，中文作答）：「九龍華仁書院的游泳池需要進行年度清潔，需要抽走池中 80% 的水。已知游泳池總容量是 450,000 公升。如果抽水機每分鐘可以抽走 600 公升的水，請問需要多少小時才能抽走所需的水量？」

Question 3 (Logical Thinking): "There are three school teams: Football, Badminton, and the Community Youth Club. A student can join more than one. We know that all 15 members of the Badminton team are also in the Football team. There are 22 players in the Football team in total. Half of the Football team members are also in the Community Youth Club. How many students are in the Football team, but NOT in the Badminton team or the Community Youth Club?"

4. 個人反思與時事觸覺 (Personal Reflection & Current Affairs)

Question 1: "Wah Yan values students who are 'open to life-long growth'. This means learning from both success and failure. You have won many awards in Math and Piano. Can you share an experience where you did not win, or faced a challenge in these activities? What did you learn from that experience?"

Question 2 (Chinese): 「九龍華仁書院的校園很大，設施齊全，有一個人造草地足球場和游泳池。作為一個熱愛運動的學生，你會如何利用這些設施來組織活動，去聯繫和幫助中一的新同學，讓他們更快地融入華仁這個大家庭？」

Question 3: "People are talking a lot about 'Artificial Intelligence' or 'AI' recently. Some think AI is very helpful for learning, while others worry it might make students lazy. What is your opinion? How do you think a Wah Yan student, who is expected to be responsible, should use AI correctly?"

面試秘訣 (Interview Tips)

中文溝通及創意表達 (Chinese Communication & Creative Expression)

為何這樣問： 此類問題旨在評估學生的語言組織能力、創意思維，以及能否將個人經歷與學校的獨特文化和價值觀（如SJC的悠久歷史和團隊精神、WYK的服務精神）聯繫起來。情境題和討論題能進一步考察學生的臨場反應、邏輯思辨和多角度思考能力。策略： 準備時，不僅要熟悉學校的標誌性事件（如SJC的150周年電車、WYK的百周年織頸巾活動），更要思考這些事件背後的深層意義。嘗試將你自己的獲獎經歷（如運動會、數學比賽、公益少年團）作為具體例子來支撐你的觀點，這樣能讓你的回答更具說服力和個人特色。例如，你可以將接力賽的合作精神比喻為SJC的「綠與白」兄弟情。思維導圖則要求快速組織思緒，平日可多加練習，將複雜概念簡化為關鍵詞和分支。

SJC 模擬答案範例 (中文對話討論)

「我不同意這個看法。我認為學術和課外活動就像人的左手和右手，同樣重要。作為足球隊員，我知道團隊合作和面對壓力的重要性，這在學習上遇到難題時，能讓我更懂得堅持和與同學合作。而作為數學大使，我學到了清晰的邏輯思維，這幫助我在球場上更快地分析形勢，作出判斷。聖若瑟書院的『綠與白精神』不僅體現在考試成績上，更體現在運動場上的互相扶持和音樂廳裡的合作演奏。一個真正的『若瑟夫』，應該是既能靜心鑽研學問，也能在球場上揮灑汗水，這樣才是真正的『全人發展』。」

English Reading, Comprehension & Storytelling

為何這樣問： 英文部分旨在全面評估學生的英語能力，包括朗讀時的發音和流暢度、對文章的理解能力，以及口頭表達和創意。朗讀文章後提問，能測試學生是否真正理解內容，而不只是機械地讀出聲音。看圖說故事則能展現學生的想像力、詞彙量和組織故事的能力。策略： 朗讀時要自信、清晰，注意語氣的抑揚頓挫。回答問題時，要直接引用文章的關鍵詞（如 'Labour and Virtue', 'Green and White Spirit'），並馬上連接到自己的親身經歷（如接力賽、彈鋼琴），這樣能顯示你深刻的理解和應用能力。講故事時，為每個圖片的環節設定清晰的起承轉合，可以加入一些簡單的對話或描述角色的感受，讓故事更生動。

WYK Model Answer Sample (English Individual Presentation)

"I am very excited about the 'free' school culture at Wah Yan. I agree with the alumnus that freedom comes with responsibility. As a member of my school's football and badminton teams, I have already learned how to manage my time. For example, I have to finish my homework first before I can go to training. At Wah Yan, I will use this freedom to explore more. Besides joining the sports teams, I want to use the library's resources to learn about computer coding, which is my other interest. I will create a schedule for myself to balance my studies, my sports, and my new interests. This freedom is a chance for me to prove that I am a responsible person, and I can become a better 'man for others' by using my time wisely to learn more things and help others in the future."

數理及解難 (Logic & Problem Solving)

為何這樣問： 這部分不僅是測試你的計算能力，更重要的是評估你的邏輯思維、解難步驟和將數學知識應用於實際場景的能力。題目會巧妙地結合學校設施（如窗戶形狀、游泳池）或你的個人專長（如奧數、運動），目的是觀察你是否能靈活運用知識。策略： 遇到題目時，不要急著計算。先深呼吸，仔細讀題，理解問題的要求。在草稿紙上畫圖或列出步驟會很有幫助。回答時，嘗試「大聲思考」(think out loud)，向面試官清晰地解釋你每一步是怎樣想的。即使最後答案算錯了，清晰的邏輯過程也能給你加分。對於集合論（ Venn diagram）的題目，畫圖是最好的方法。對於應用題，要留意單位（例如公升與分鐘，最後問小時）。

SJC 模擬答案範例 (問題二：邏輯推理)

「這個問題可以用集合論的公式來解決。首先，我們把所有參加單一學會的人數加起來：18 + 15 + 12 = 45人。但這樣會重複計算了那些同時參加兩個或三個學會的學生。所以，我們要減去同時參加兩個學會的人數：45 - 5 - 4 - 3 = 33人。但這樣減的時候，我們把參加了三個學會的學生多減了，所以要把它們加回來。因此，總人數是 33 + 2 = 35人。所以，總共有35位學生。」

個人成長與群體互動 (Personal Growth & Group Interaction)

為何這樣問： 這部分問題的核心是想了解「你是一個怎樣的人」。面試官希望看到你的個性、價值觀、自我反省能力、團隊合作精神以及對社會的觸覺。將你的個人興趣與學校的理念結合，能反映你對學校有深入的思考。小組討論則能直接觀察你的溝通、聆聽和協作能力。策略： 回答個人問題時，要真誠。分享失敗或挑戰的經歷，重點不是失敗本身，而是你「從中學到了什麼」，以及這次經歷如何讓你成長。在小組討論中，不要只顧自己發言，也要做一個好的聆聽者，尊重並回應組員的意見。嘗試做一個「建立者」(builder)，在別人意見的基礎上提出更好的建議，例如可以說：「我同意同學A的觀點，同時我們也可以考慮……」。這能體現你的團隊合作精神和領導潛力。

WYK 模擬答案範例 (Question 1: Learning from Failure)

"Yes, I remember a piano competition when I was in Primary 4. I had won a gold medal before, so I was very confident and didn't practice as hard. During the performance, I was nervous and forgot a part of the music. I only got a merit award and I was very disappointed. From this experience, I learned that past success doesn't guarantee future success. It taught me the importance of being humble and always trying my best, no matter what. This experience will help me at Wah Yan because I know I cannot be lazy. Even if I am good at something, I must keep practicing and learning to become better. It shows that being 'open to growth' means I have to work hard all the time."
