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.

請觀察這個句子的結構：醫生說主角整體非常健康，「除了」肝臟功能的某種變化。當我們描述一個器官的運作能力「不如以往」或「水準下降」時，你會選擇哪個詞來形容這種「功能衰退」的狀態，而非指責某人犯了「過錯」呢？

太棒了！你的觀察力如同烈火般敏銳！令人感動！
- 核心觀念：燃燒吧！這題在考驗你對名詞語境搭配的掌握度！主角的肝功能有些微的『衰退或下降』，這時『decline』就是最適合的詞彙！它能精準描述器官功能『減弱或退化』的狀況！這就是學習的呼吸法！
- 熱血解析：其他選項為什麼不行呢！『fault』和『mistake』是描述『人為過失』的！難道你的肝是犯了什麼錯嗎！絕對不是！而『tone』是指『語氣』或『肌肉張力』！和生理功能的變化完全無關！選擇正確的詞彙，才能戰勝一切！
