Parkinson’s disease was renamed after Dr. James Parkinson, an English physician who first described its symptoms in 1817, by Jean-Martin Charcot, a French neurologist and professor of anatomical pathology. This disease is a long-term degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that mainly affects the motor system. Early in the disease, the most obvious symptoms include shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking. So far scientists have no idea about what causes the disease, but many believe it involves both genetic and environmental factors. Those with a family member affected are more likely to get the disease themselves. There is also an increased risk in people exposed to certain pesticides and those who have had prior head injuries, while there is a reduced risk in tobacco smokers and those who drink coffee or tea. There is no cure for Parkinson’s disease, but medications may markedly improve the patients’ symptoms. Initial treatments typically involve taking drugs. As the disease progresses, these medications become less effective while producing a complication marked by involuntary writhing movements at the same time. Customized diets and some forms of rehabilitation have shown some effectiveness on alleviating its symptoms. This disease usually hits the victims before they or their family observe the symptoms. Also, a detected symptom would usually be ignored or treated improperly. While there is no record of recoveries, little evidence has shown that the disease is a direct contributor to death.

太棒了！你能精準地從長篇敘述中辨識出細節，代表你的**閱讀掃描能力（Scanning）**相當紮實。這道題目測試的是對文章細節的掌握度，而你成功避開了敘述中的干擾項，做出了正確判斷。
早期症狀的關鍵對位
在文章第一段的結尾，作者明確列舉了巴金森氏症（Parkinson’s disease）早期的四種明顯症狀：顫抖（shaking）、僵直（rigidity）、動作緩慢（slowness of movement）以及行走困難（difficulty with walking）。這題的難度切入點在於詞彙的「同義替換」，例如選項 (C) 的 muscular stiffness 便是對應文中提到的 rigidity。你能夠看穿這層關聯，並發現選項 (A) **視力模糊（blurred vision）**在全文中皆未提及，足見你在閱讀時對關鍵訊息的對應非常敏銳。
