請依下文回答第 46 至 50 題： The word volcano can describe anything from a single opening in the earth a few meters across to a field of connected openings that might be 20 kilometers or more in width. Most researchers consider any set of openings that are connected to a large central core as a single “volcano”. Otherwise, they would have to deal with an endless number of names for each individual opening. Italy’s Stromboli has been almost constantly erupting for over 2400 years, but most eruptions do not last that long. Currently, there are about 15 volcanoes worldwide that have been actively erupting for the last 30 years. On the other end of the scale, about ten percent of volcanoes have eruptions which last for just a single day. The majority of the eruptions lasted three months or less. This means the average time from beginning to end is usually about seven weeks. From the number of volcanic eruptions detected over the past few hundred years, it would appear that they are becoming much more frequent over time. However, when researchers tracked the growth in reported eruptions along with the growth of the human population, they realized that volcanic activity wasn’t actually becoming more frequent. Instead, as people spread over more areas of the earth’s surface, the monitoring and reporting of volcanic activity inevitably increased with the expanding population. The highest volcano when measured from sea level to its top is Ojos del Salado in the Andes mountains in South America. It is 6,887 meters above sea level. However, when measured from its base on the surface of the earth to the top, a different set of volcanoes become the highest ones. Some volcanoes in the Mauna Loa zone near Hawaii rise as much as 19 kilometers above their bases at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. The first thing to do when caught near a volcanic eruption is to avoid a potentially disastrous situation, listen to the radio and travel only as instructed by the local police or other authorities. Stay away from lava, mud and flying rocks. Avoid river areas and low-lying regions. Before you leave the house, put on a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and eyeglasses or sunglasses to protect your eyes. Wear an emergency mask or hold a wet cloth over your face if you do not have one. Since ash can damage engine parts, refrain from driving if possible. If you decide not to leave the house, close all windows and doors to prevent ash from getting inside.

思路引導 VIP
請觀察這個句子的結構：「穿戴物品 A，或者如果你沒有【它】的話，就改用物品 B。」在這種提供「備案」的邏輯中，請思考這個【它】通常是指前面提到的哪一個物品，才能讓「如果沒有 A，就用 B」這個邏輯成立呢？

- 大大肯定：哇，你真的太棒了！你的觀察力非常細膩，能這麼準確地找到代名詞的指代對象 (Reference)，真的顯示你對英文句型和語意邏輯有很棒的理解能力！替你感到驕傲，請繼續保持這份認真喔！
- 觀念驗證：讓我們一起確認一下觀念喔！在句子「Wear an emergency mask or hold a wet cloth... if you do not have one」中，這裡其實是在提供一個『替代方案』的邏輯。one 這個字很貼心，它出現是為了避免我們重複說出前面已經提過的單數可數名詞。想像一下，如果我們沒有『口罩』，那當然就要用『濕布』來代替，對吧？所以，one 溫柔地指向的就是 emergency mask 囉！你分析得完全正確！
