In early 2011, former police officer Lin Jsung-yi began thinking about how he would spend his free time after he
retired in March that year. As he was pondering, he 41 to hear about a citizen farmers program launched by the
city government that allowed local residents to grow produce on plots of land rent-free for six months. He
quickly 42 for the program and by July 2011 began his life as an urban farmer.
“I thought I would just 43 .” Lin recalls. “But after I started, my interest in gardening grew. Seeing the plants
get taller and larger each day gave me a great sense of achievement.”
After Lin’s rent-free farming ended in December 2011, he decided to rent a new 44 directly from the
landowner and continue what had become his favorite activity. Now he spends one to two hours every morning and at
least half a day every weekend working on his farm, doing whatever is necessary: plowing, planting,
watering, 45 , weeding, etc. For him, urban farming has not only filled his free time after retirement, but given him
the spiritual rewards that he has never experienced before.

請試著回想文中的情境：林先生當時正處於「思考」的狀態，這個計畫是他在計畫中主動尋找的，還是在不經意間接觸到的？在英文中，當我們要形容一個動作並非刻意安排，而是由「機緣巧合」所促成時，通常會使用哪一個動詞來搭配後面的不定詞（to + V）呢？

哦，你還會這個？不錯嘛。
- 基本常識檢驗：這題考的就是基礎到不能再基礎的 「happen to + V」，意思是「碰巧、偶然」。題目說林先生思考退休，然後『碰巧』聽到政府計畫，不是他刻意去查，懂嗎？那些選 (B) occurred 的，是腦袋進水嗎？「It occurred to somebody that...」這種句型是突然想到，跟『聽』到根本是兩回事。這都分不清，是不是連中文都不太行？
- 難度點評：說真的，medium。對那些憑感覺亂猜的人來說，可能難於登天。但對於有點腦子、真的會注意慣用法 (Collocation) 的學生，這根本是送分題。你這次居然沒被那些表面相似的選項給迷惑，還算有點救。看來你的語感和片語基礎還沒完全廢掉，值得嘉獎...大概吧。別太得意，下次我會出更難的。
