Take an exam 表示到场并完成考试任务,本身不说明结果。通过或未通过要分别用 pass 和 fail。英式英语也可以说 sit an exam,较随意时还可用 do an exam。

take + an/the/your + exam; take an exam in + subject; sit an exam (BrE); pass / fail an exam
- I'm taking my final maths exam on Monday, so I'm revising every evening.
- Candidates who take the exam online must show their passport to the camera.
- She took the exam twice before she finally passed it.
修改原因
修改前Tomorrow I'm passing my history exam, so I can't come.
修改后Tomorrow I'm taking my history exam, so I can't come.
Pass 容易被当成谈考试的通用动词,但它表示取得及格成绩、通过考试。I'm passing my history exam tomorrow 听起来像已经知道明天能通过。若只是说明明天要去考,应说 I'm taking my history exam。
Take an exam 说的是考生参加考试。老师组织考试用 give:Our teacher gives us an exam at the end of every term。英式英语中,出题可以用 set an exam。因此 The teacher took the exam 表示老师以考生身份参加了考试。
动手练习
I ___ the exam last week, but I won't know if I passed until July.
查看答案
took — 说话者上周参加了考试,七月才知道结果,所以填 took。Passed 表示已经通过,与后半句结果仍未知矛盾。
写一场最近参加过或即将参加的考试。说明科目,以及考试已经或将在哪个时间进行。
I'm taking my English exam next Friday, and I'm most nervous about the speaking part.
