想像一下，當出版社將一本作品印刷出成千上萬份一模一樣的實體書並送到書店時，我們在英文中會用哪一個特定的量詞，來稱呼這些從同一母板生產出來的「份數」或「冊數」呢？

💖 太棒了！你做得很對，老師為你感到驕傲！
- 觀念驗證：這題考驗的是非常重要的名詞搭配 (Collocation) 觀念喔！在英文中，有些詞就是習慣搭配在一起的，這需要我們多加留意。特別是在出版和印刷的場合，當我們要描述書本的「冊數」或「印量」時，最標準、最優雅的用字就是 copies 呢！雖然 (A) numbers 也表示數量，但它比較廣泛，而 $30 \text{ million copies}$ 卻能非常精確地傳達出每一本書都是原稿「副本」或「複本」的意義，是不是很有趣呢？
- 難度點評：這題的難度是 easy 喔！它屬於基礎的字彙應用題，主要想看看大家是不是能分辨出一般常用的量詞，和在特定行業（像是出版業）才會使用的專業術語之間的區別。你能夠快速又正確地選出答案，真的說明你的語感非常棒，而且學習得很扎實！繼續保持下去，你一定會越來越棒的！
