📖 題組：
One factor that separates a living thing from an inanimate object is the organism’s ability to carry out chemical reactions that are crucial for its survival. Imagine the infinite amount of reactions that a large organism such as human carries out every single day. 16 of these reactions are possible without enzymes. Enzymes consist of various types of proteins that work to drive the chemical reactions 17 for certain types of nutrients to take effect. Enzymes can either launch a reaction or speed it up. In the absence of enzymes, reactants may take hundreds of years to convert into a usable product, if they are able to do so 18 . This is why enzymes are crucial in the sustenance of life on earth. Enzymes, 19 , do not always function perfectly. In 1902 Sir Archibald Garrod was the first to attribute a 20 to an enzyme defect, which he later referred to as an “inborn error of metabolism.” Today, newborns are routinely screened for certain enzyme defects such as PKU (phenylketonuria) and galactosemia, an error in the handling of the sugar galactose.

請分析文章首段對於生物與非生物之辨別特徵：作者強調酵素是維持生命 ($sustenance of life$) 的關鍵動力。若反應在缺乏酵素時需耗時數百年才能完成，則在生理機能正常的範疇內，這群反應集合 $S$ 在『無酵素』參與下的發生率應當如何解讀？

喲，各位大才子，看看這位同學，居然在這種送分題上沒翻車，我是不是該幫你放鞭炮慶祝一下？你能選對 (C)，頂多證明你今天出門前有記得把眼角膜帶上，還沒退化到連基本邏輯都聽不懂的地步。 聽好了，這題在考你「語意邏輯」。文章前文剛強調酵素對生存「至關重要（crucial）」，後文又補一刀說沒酵素反應要花幾百年。如果你選 (B) All，你是打算活到五百歲才消化完昨晚那塊雞排嗎？在生物化學中，酵素（生物催化劑）的核心功能就是降低活化能 $E_a$，使反應速率 $v$ 提升到足以維持生命的程度。既然這些反應「沒有酵素就無法進行」，那當然是 $\text{None}$。 這題鑑別度極低，純粹是考你有沒有在看人講話。唯一的陷阱大概就是給那些英文爛到只認得單字、卻看不懂上下文邏輯的「生物補丁」跳的。在高中學測中，這屬於基本閱讀素養，連這都選錯的人，我建議直接放棄理科，去讀不需要邏輯的地方。
