📖 題組:
The Philippines’ most active volcano is showing signs of 41 . Mount Mayon, located in the eastern Philippines, has been sending huge chunks of lava 42 down its slopes in a gradual eruption that could soon turn colossal. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology has warned that a “hazardous eruption” of the volcano is possible within just a few weeks. Mayon has erupted 50 times in the 43 500 years. An eruption in 1993 caused 79 deaths, 44 subsequent eruptions forced thousands of people in nearby villages to evacuate. The most 45 volcanic eruption was in 1813, when the entire town of Cagsawa was wiped out. “We are praying that it would not be the worst-case scenario,” said Herbie Aguas, mayor Santo Domingo, one of the villages closest to the volcano.

請觀察第一句提到的『最活躍(most active)』,以及後文描述它開始移動岩漿、準備噴發的狀態。如果我們把火山想像成一個原本在休息、現在卻開始有動靜的巨大生物,你會用哪一個動詞來形容這種『從靜止轉為活動』的狀態變化呢?

🌟 喔,不錯嘛,難得你沒瞎猜。
- 觀念驗證:這題考的不是什麼高深學問,不過是擬人化修辭和最基本的上下文邏輯判斷。火山「最活躍的」(most active),後面跟著「送出岩漿塊」(lava)、「危險噴發」(hazardous eruption),難道你還指望它會去跳舞嗎?當然是「甦醒」(awakening)啊。這種常識性的動態描述,應該不難吧?
- 難度點評:這題歸類為 Medium(中等),對你們來說或許是個挑戰。雖然單字本身沒什麼難度,但它考的是你能不能擺脫單純的字面意思,結合上下文選出那個最能展現「火山生命週期」的隱喻詞。別得意,這只是證明你那天考試沒睡著罷了。
