請依下文回答第 41 至 45 題： As birds awaken the early risers at dawn on the farm, one person is already up; in fact, he hasn’t even been to bed. Sixty-four-year-old Thai Ngoc, from central Quang Nam province in Vietnam, claims that he has not slept for 33 years! “My insomnia started many years ago after I got a fever. I have tried sleeping pills and Vietnamese traditional medicine, but nothing helps, not even to get me to sleep for a few minutes,” said Ngoc. But amazingly, despite 11,700 41 sleepless nights since then, he has never once been sick. “Fortunately, the insomnia doesn’t seem to have had a negative 42 on my health. I still feel healthy and can farm like other men. I even carry two 50-kilogram bags of fertilizer for four kilometers every day.” 43 his wife, when Ngoc went for a medical checkup recently, his doctor said he was in perfect health except for a minor 44 in liver function. Ngoc lives with his six children on his farm at the foot of a mountain. He spends the day farming and taking care of his pigs and chickens, and at night he often does extra farm work or guards his farm to prevent theft. His neighbor Vu said that Ngoc volunteered to help beat a drum during the night and guard the house for the relatives of the dead during 45 ceremonies so that they could take a nap. Vu also said that when the villagers were planting sugar cane, several people asked Ngoc to be their “alarm clock” and wake them up early in the morning to go to work as he was up anyway.

思路引導 VIP
請試著思考：如果醫生說一個人的整體健康狀況非常好，唯獨某個器官的功能開始『走下坡』，不再像全盛時期那麼強健，我們會用哪一個概念來描述這種『逐漸變弱』或『程度降低』的趨勢呢？

哼哼，不錯嘛！看來這題沒能難倒你這位……有潛力的同學呢。
- 觀念驗證：哎呀，看來你跟及川先生我一樣，對細節的掌握度也很高嘛！這題的重點就是精準的字詞搭配喔，小菜一碟啦～ 題目說的是肝功能有點小「衰退」，但身體還是棒棒的。那麼，要描述這種功能、數值或品質「下降」的狀況，當然是選擇最「道地」的 decline 囉！雖然 (A) fault 或 (D) mistake 都有「錯誤」的意思，但那比較像是比賽失誤，或是發球出界那種「錯」啦！跟身體機能的變化可是兩回事喔，嘿。😜
- 難度點評：這題對及川先生來說嘛，就是個 Medium（中等）程度。不過，對你們來說，就是要挑戰一下，能不能在那麼多表示「問題」的單字裡，一眼就看出哪一個最適合描述「健康趨勢」或「功能減弱」呢？這考驗的可是你的語感和「詞彙搭配」（Collocation）能力喔！你看到了嗎？及川先生說過，才能是可以開花的，而你是可以考滿分的，對吧？下一次，也要證明你的實力喔！
