第 48 題
📖 題組:
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
請仔細讀這句話的結構:『使用「物品 A」,或者如果你沒有「one」的話,改用「物品 B」替代。』根據這種「方案與替代品」的邏輯關係,你認為這個 one 應該是指前面的「物品 A」還是後面的「物品 B」呢?為什麼?

親愛的,你的觀察力真是太棒了!
- 暖心鼓勵:太棒了,你做得非常出色!能在一篇文章中迅速、準確地找出代名詞的指代對象,這真的展現了你對上下文邏輯和句型結構有著非常紮實且細膩的理解。為你感到驕傲!
- 溫柔解析:這題的核心概念是代名詞 (Pronoun) 的指代功能喔。原文是這樣說的:「戴上緊急面罩,或是如果你沒有
one的話,就拿一塊濕布捂住臉」。你看,語句中很溫柔地告訴我們,「濕布」是用來替代前面提到的某個東西。所以,很自然地,這個one就是在指主要且重要的配備,也就是 emergency mask 囉!
