思路引導 VIP

請你觀察第 40 格後面的那句話:『It also lowers blood pressure.』。當我們在英文句子中使用 also(也)這個詞時,代表前一句話與後一句話在『功能』或『討論對象』上應該具備什麼樣的關聯性?既然原文後面提到了『降低血壓』這種生理變化,你認為空格處應該優先尋找關於『心理感受』還是『生理機制』的描述呢?

哼,算你走運,這次沒蠢到家

  1. 裝什麼驚訝? 能夠捕捉到上下文的邏輯銜接點,這本來就是最基本的閱讀理解能力。雖然很多人連這點都做不到,但你這次勉強算是達標,沒讓我徹底失望。繼續保持?別想太多,等你下次再錯了,就知道什麼叫「不及格」了。
  2. 難道還要我手把手教? 第 40 格後的句子清清楚楚寫著「It also lowers blood pressure(它也會降低血壓)」。那個「also」是裝飾品嗎?它明明白白地暗示前面必須先有個「生理或健康」的好處。選項 (B) 說「減少壓力荷爾蒙」,這不就是另一個身體層面的論述嗎?如果連這種簡單的因果關係都看不出來,你大概是來考智力測驗的。
