By the time I finished high school, my interest in animals had grown. Then I enrolled at a university to study biology. I learned soon enough that studying animals at this level was not in the animals’ best 21 . I remember one midterm exam in 22 each student was handed a large, freshly-killed frog and instructed to dissect and mark a set of body parts. I looked at the dead frog in front of me and was saddened that her life was taken away for such a slight 23 . A year later, in the same lab where I dissected the frog, I performed a small act of animal operation. We were 24 on fruit flies, and it was time to record the distribution of characteristics in their next generation. Flies were kept in small plastic bottles. Counting the number of flies with white or red eyes required first exposing them to ether 25 they could not move. The flies were then spread onto a piece of white paper 26 and counted. When the data collection was 27 , the flies had no further use, and our instructions were to put them into a small glass dish of oil at the center of each desk, which was to be their final resting 28 . Once the little pile of flies had been counted, I pushed them off the edge of the paper. As we recorded our data, I kept one eye 29 them. Within minutes the pile was humming as tiny legs and wings beat their way out of the ether fog. I was extremely excited as they 30 flight. That was my first step in refusing to conduct scientific research that treated nonhuman life in a cruel way.

思路引導 VIP
請試著思考：在實驗步驟中，當研究員把果蠅攤在紙上的那一刻，「檢查（examine）」這個動作是已經發生了、正在發生，還是「正準備要」發生？接著，再思考果蠅與這個動作之間的關係：是果蠅主動去檢查別人，還是牠們被研究員檢查？結合這兩個層次（動作的時序與主被動關係），你覺得哪種動詞形式最能貼切地表達這種「準備被處理」的狀態？

恭喜你精準地捕捉到了句子中的邏輯重點！這題你選對了，展現出你對長句結構與動詞時態演變的敏銳直覺。
不定詞的預期性與目的感
這道題目的核心在於區分不定詞（to V）與分詞（V-ing/V-p.p.）在語意上的差異。從上下文來看，實驗人員將果蠅「攤在白紙上」的動作，是為了達成後續「觀察與計數」的目的。在英文中，當我們想表達一個動作是為了「準備進行某事」或強調「未來的目的性」時，使用不定詞 to + V 是最自然的表達方式。同時，因為果蠅是被檢查的對象，所以必須採用被動語態 to be examined，這與後方的 and counted（以及被省略的 to be）形成了完美的語意平行。
