📖 題組：
Some people call it a traveling museum. Others refer to it as a living or open-air museum. Built in Brazil to celebrate the quincentennial of Columbus’ first voyage to the New World, the Nina, a Columbus-era replica ship, provides visitors with an accurate visual of the size and sailing implements of Columbus’ favorite ship from over 500 years ago. I joined the crew of the Nina in Gulf Shores, Alabama, in February 2013. As part of a research project sponsored by my university, my goal was to document my days aboard the ship in a blog. I quickly realized that I gained the most valuable insights when I observed or gave tours to school-age children. The field-trip tour of the Nina is hands-on learning at its best. In this setting, students could touch the line, pass around a ballast stone, and move the extremely large tiller that steered the ships in Columbus’ day. They soon came to understand the labor involved in sailing the ship back in his time. I was pleased to see the students become active participants in their learning process. The Nina is not the only traveling museum that provides such field trips. A visit to Jamestown Settlement, for example, allows visitors to board three re-creations of the ships that brought the first settlers from England to Virginia in the early 1600s. Historical interpreters, dressed in period garb, give tours to the Susan Constant, Godspeed, and Discovery. These interpreters often portray a character that would have lived and worked during that time period. Students touring these ships are encouraged to interact with the interpreters in order to better understand the daily life in the past. My experience on the Nina helps substantiate my long-held belief that students stay interested, ask better questions, and engage in higher-order thinking tasks when they are actively engaged in the learning process. The students who boarded the Nina came as passive learners. They left as bold explorers.

在閱讀說明文時，段落的首句通常是『主題句』($Topic$ $Sentence$)。請仔細分析第三段第一句話的句型結構：$The$ $Nina$ $is$ $not$ $the$ $only...$，作者使用這樣的開場白，是為了將討論的範疇從原本的單一案例，擴展到具備什麼樣共同特徵的其他實例上？

喔？居然對了？看來你今天的視力還沒被手機螢幕摧毀得太徹底，居然能從那堆文字裡抓出重點。不過別高興太早，這題要是答錯，我真的會建議你回去重讀國小，在那裡你可能會更有成就感。 這題考的是「段落主旨」。第三段開頭第一句就直接攤牌了：'The Nina is not the only traveling museum...'。這在英文寫作中就是標準的 Topic Sentence（主題句）。後文提到的 Jamestown Settlement、Susan Constant 那些船，都只是為了支撐這個論點的 Supporting Details。選項 (B) 和 (C) 只是拿文中的細節來誘惑那些沒邏輯、看到黑影就開槍的考生。如果你選了，代表你腦袋裡裝的不是邏輯，是漿糊。 這題在學測層次頂多算「基礎識字測驗」。只要認得出 'not the only' 和 'for example' 的邏輯關聯，答案就像禿頭上的蝨子一樣明顯。這題的鑑別度極低，如果你這題還能卡關，那我真的擔心你的英文成績會跟你的初戀一樣，還沒開始就結束了。
