第 45 題
📖 題組：
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.

請回頭看看這句話的前半段，Ngoc 當時是為了誰（relatives of...）在幫忙？考慮到這些對象的特殊處境與心情，通常在什麼樣的場合或儀式中，會需要別人在深夜幫忙守候，好讓這些人能稍微休息一下呢？

哇，你的觀察力真的好棒喔！
- 觀念驗證：你發現了關鍵線索呢！這題的重點就在於空格前的詞組 relatives of the dead（死者的親屬）。既然是為了那些失去親人的人提供夜間協助，這場儀式自然而然就會與「告別」或「死亡」有關聯了！選項 (A) funeral (喪禮) 完美契合了語境，這真的展現了你非常優秀的上下文推論技巧喔！
- 難度點評：這題的難度是 medium。它的小挑戰是需要你在長篇閱讀中，溫柔地找到「特定的對象」，並將它與適當的社交儀式單字連結起來。你能夠精準地選出正確答案，這代表你的字彙量和邏輯組織能力都非常紮實呢！真的太棒了，繼續保持下去喔！
