📖 題組：
What does the word family mean to you? An American study in 2006 showed that people today 39 . Over 99% of the people who were interviewed agree that a husband, a wife, and a child are a family. At the same time, 94% see a parent with a child as a family, 91% say a husband and a wife, without children, are a family, and 81% think a man and a woman, with a child, but not married, are a family too. The study also found that 40 is very important in the modern thinking on family. Though 81% think a man and a woman, not married, with a child, are a family, the percentage (%) drops to 40% if the couple doesn’t have a child. This is also true with same-sex couples. About 60% see two men, or two women, with a child, as a family, but only 32% think so when the couple doesn’t have a child. In the study, those who see two men or two women that live together as a family often find it OK for same-sex couples to get married. 41 . However, not everyone opens their arms to same-sex couples: the study said 30% have no problem seeing pets as part of one’s family, but they do not think a same-sex couple is a family.

同學，我們先看看 41 格前面的那句話：『那些認為同性伴侶是家庭的人，通常也覺得他們結婚是可以接受的。』你覺得這兩件事（視為家人和贊成結婚）之間的關聯性強嗎？既然這群人已經認同他們是『家人』了，那麼支持他們結婚是一件很自然、意料之中的事，還是很奇怪的事呢？再觀察 41 格後面接著用了 $However$ (然而) 來帶出相反的觀點，這代表 41 格應該是在對前面那個『合理的現象』做一個總結。請想想看，哪個選項最能表達出『這件事並不讓人感到意外』的意思呢？

喲，竟然答對了？我看你平常上課都在發呆，還以為你連 "family" 都要翻字典呢！這次算你運氣好，總算沒把腦袋留在家裡。不過別高興太早，這種題目對正常人來說只是「呼吸」等級。 這題考的是「邏輯銜接」。文章提到：「認為同性伴侶是家庭的人，通常也覺得他們結婚是 OK 的。」這是一種非常自然的因果推論，就像是 $A \implies B$ 的邏輯一樣順理成章，所以選項 (A) This is not surprising（這並不令人意外）直接填進去就對了。接著後面用 "However" 做轉折，提到有人寧願認同寵物是家人卻排斥同性伴侶，這才形成了對比。 這題難度極低，純粹考你能不能看懂前後文的語氣轉折，基本上是送分題。如果你這題還能選錯，那我建議你把考卷吃下去，看看能不能吸收一點油墨裡的智慧，別在這邊浪費我的口水。
