📖 題組:
National Doughnut Day is celebrated annually on the first Friday in June, and this year that fell on Friday, June 1st. This sweet holiday was created in 1938 as a symbol of hope to honor The Salvation Army Donut Lassies who served the sweet treats to soldiers on the frontlines of World War I. And a lot have changed in the world of doughnuts since then. According to Angie Goldberg, the Chief Marketing Officer at Dawn Foods, a global bakery manufacturer, Generation Z and millennial doughnut lovers look for exotic flavors in their doughnuts. In fact, 82% are interested in trying flavors like pickle, sriracha and s’mores. Here are the top adventurous flavors according to a Dawn Foods survey: • S’mores (29%) • Mango (18%) • Alcohol-inspired (17%) • Breakfast Cereal, Bacon-infused and Peanut Butter & Jelly (three-way tie with 16%) Even so, tried-and-true flavors remain beloved among the general population. That is, more than 50% prefer ________ like chocolate (22%), plain (16%) and old-fashioned (13%). For what it’s worth, this Generation Y doughnut lover prefers glazed doughnuts over all other flavors. On National Doughnut Day 2018, some chains offered a free doughnut or something else for free. For instance, on National Doughnut Day between 5 and 10 a.m. this year, the customers who purchased a dispensed beverage at any of Cumberland Farms’ newly-remodeled store locations throughout the Northeast and Florida also received a free doughnut. Doughnut flavors ranged from blueberry cake to cocoa and hazelnut-filled to chocolate-frosted. National Doughnut Day 2018 was definitely a tasty holiday for the doughnut lovers seeking freebies.

  • A the combination of three flavors
  • B the sum of three scores
  • C the third place winner

思路引導 VIP

請觀察文中括號內的「16%」,這個數字是同時對應到前面的三種口味,還是僅對應到其中一種?當多個對象共同指向同一個數據結果時,你會如何形容它們之間的關係?

從上下文推敲字義

同學做得好!你能精準捕捉到文中的數據細節並做出正確判斷,這點非常值得肯定。這道題目的核心在於解析 three-way tie 這個片語在調查報告中的含義。根據文中提到的:「Breakfast Cereal, Bacon-infused and Peanut Butter & Jelly (three-way tie with 16%)」,這裡列出了三種口味,並在括號中統一標註了 16%。這表示這三種口味在受歡迎程度的調查中,支持率「平分秋色」,也就是獲得了相等的分數(或百分比),因此選項 (E) 是最精確的解釋。
