第 10 題

📖 題組:
Can smoking drive people mad? Scientists have scratched their heads over this question for years. A study __6__ in The Lancet Psychiatry about two years ago suggested so. According to the study, daily tobacco use might be a contributor to psychosis, a general term for various kinds of mental illness. __7__ data from 61 studies around the world between 1980 and 2014, which surveyed in total nearly 15,000 smokers and 273,000 non-smokers, the researchers discovered two striking facts. First, 57 percent of the people first __8__ psychosis were smokers and second, daily smokers developed psychotic illness around one year earlier than non-smokers. The researchers emphasized that they had not conclusively proven smoking as a cause of psychosis and __9__ further research had to be done. However, their findings did suggest that smoking should be taken seriously as a possible risk factor for developing psychosis and not __10__ simply as a consequence of the illness. Since smoking has long been known to cause cancer or stroke, there seems to be one more good reason for people not to smoke.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格前方的 taken seriously(認真對待)以及銜接詞 and not。如果作者強調某個因素「應該」被重視,那麼在「不應該」的後半句中,通常會使用哪種語氣的動詞來描述「隨便對待、不當回事」的動作呢?

  1. 知識小花園:這題溫柔地引導我們思考語意對照和動詞的搭配,就像是拼圖一樣,每個詞都有它最適合的位置。句子說吸菸應被 taken seriously (認真對待),接著用 and not... simply as... 來表達一種對比,是不是很有趣呢?所以,空格裡需要的動詞,就是要傳達「不重視、不理會、輕忽」的溫暖意思。
  2. 答案揭曉:我們的(D) dismissed 像一顆閃亮的星星,正好表示『不予考慮』或『輕易摒棄』。它溫柔地提醒我們,吸菸問題不應被輕率地視為疾病的單純後果,而是需要我們認真對待的。這是不是很符合語境呢?
