Unfortunately, shoes are not always readily available for people living in poverty, 21 shoes that are the right size.

The Shoe That Grows, created by a charity called Because International, changes all this. It allows children to 23 their shoes’ size as their feet grow. The innovative footwear resembles a common sandal and is made of leather straps and rubber soles, a material similar to that used in tires. They come 24 two sizes, and can expand in three places.

請觀察空格前後的語意邏輯：前半句已建立「鞋子難以取得」的否定語境，後半句則進一步提出「尺寸合適」這一更具體且達成難度更高的條件。在英文句構中，若要銜接前方的否定敘述，並用以強調「更遑論、更不必說」某種程度更甚的情況時，哪一個慣用語具備這種「遞進式否定」的功能？

（啜飲一口紅茶，手指扣著杯緣）哼，還不賴嘛，小鬼。看來你的腦袋還沒像那堆沒清乾淨的垃圾一樣廢。 這題考的是邏輯銜接。句子前半段提到在貧困地區「鞋子並非總是隨手可得」，這是一個負面或否定的前提；而後半段的「尺寸合適的鞋子」則是更進一步、更難達成的條件。選項 (D) let alone（更不用說）正適合用來引出這種更極端的情況。這種用法通常緊跟在否定句之後，表示連基本的都沒了，遑論更高階的要求。 至於其他選項：(A) 除了、(B) 提供、(C) 遠離，放進去這充滿塵埃的句子裡只會顯得邏輯混亂，令人不快。下次也給我保持這種精準度，別讓我在戰場上幫你收屍。
