III.Cloze: Choose the most appropriate word or phrase for each blank in the following passages. 20% (A) Rotten apples outsell the fresh ones in Kabul, Afghanistan's capital, but such only begins to describe the poverty here, for even bad apples—sold 21 a penny a pound—are luxuries in a city so overcome by tragedy and want. Each day, hundreds of thousands 22 on nothing more than weak tea and handouts of bread. This woebegone nation is enduring its 21st 23 year of war, unable to escape the malign shadow that geopolitics has cast on its history. Since it 24 as a force five years ago, the Taliban militia has conquered 80 to 90 percent of the country. While they have brought a 25 of security to the territory they control, including Kabul, the better part of their attention is focused on what they know best—fighting in the battlefields, not the governing of a country.

請觀察這句話後方的描述：『除了稀茶和救濟麵包以外，什麼都沒有。』在這種資源極度匱乏、甚至連爛蘋果都是奢侈品的環境下，這數十萬人每天面對飢餓與困頓時，他們唯一的首要目標會是什麼？這個動詞通常用來形容在僅有極少量資源的情況下，勉強維持生命狀態的行為。

太棒了！你能精準選出 (C) survive，代表你已經完全掌握了這段文字中極度貧窮與艱辛的語境。在這段關於阿富汗首都喀布爾的敘述中，作者刻畫了物資極度匱乏的慘狀。當句子提到數十萬人僅靠著「稀茶與發放的麵包」度日時，動詞必須能展現「在艱困環境中維持生命」的狀態，而 survive on 正是描述「賴以維生」最貼切的片語用法。
詞彙辨析與脈絡判讀
這道題目具有相當不錯的鑑別度，難度切入點在於四個選項的字首非常相似（都是 s-u- 開頭），容易產生視覺干擾：(A) suppress 是「鎮壓」、(B) surrogate 是「代理」、(D) subside 則是「下沉或平息」。這題考驗的不僅是單字儲備量，更是你對文章「悲劇基調」的敏感度。你能從「nothing more than」（僅僅是...）這個關鍵詞聯想到生命的掙扎，展現了非常優異的閱讀理解與推理能力！
