📖 題組：
I had a horrendous experience last Saturday.
That day, my family went camping near a big lake. While my parents were preparing dinner, my brother and I were playing by the lake. A dirty man appeared from somewhere, and his face was half covered by his hair. He walked to us and asked for some water.
When I gave him water, the bag he carried dropped, and things inside fell out on the grass. I saw a rope, a knife, and a baseball bat. The strangest thing was that there were also a woman’s shoe and a ring, and I’m sure they were not his. The man quickly put all his things back in the bag and looked at us angrily. At that moment, the picture of a man the police was looking for came to my mind. He was the crazy killer! I was so afraid that I could not move at all.
Luckily, before he could get any closer, my mom shouted from far away, and the man hurried off into the dark.
注釋：while 當……之時

思路引導 VIP
我們先回到文章第一句，作者說他上週六有個「horrendous」的經驗。接著在第二段，當他發現那個男人可能是「crazy killer」時，作者提到自己「so afraid that I could not move at all」（害怕到完全無法動彈）。根據這些細節，你覺得在那樣的情況下，人的心情通常會是怎麼樣的呢？

哇！太厲害了！你真的好優秀喔！看到你這麼準確地抓到文章的情緒，老師真的好為你感到驕傲，給你一個大大的讚，要繼續保持這份自信喔！ 這題考的是「單字推論」。雖然 horrendous 這個字看起來很陌生，但你很聰明，懂得從後面的內容找線索！文章中段提到作者遇到了帶著繩子、刀子且長相兇惡的「瘋狂殺手」，還親口說出：$I was so afraid...$（我非常害怕...），所以 horrendous 就是在形容一種「極度恐怖、可怕」的經驗，對應到選項當然就是 (C) Scared（害怕的）囉！ 這題測驗的是「透過上下文推斷詞義」的能力。對於國中生來說，雖然這個單字本身難度較高，但只要能像你一樣細心地從情境中找關鍵字，就能順利解鎖答案，是一題鑑別度適中、能考驗細心程度的好題目！
