📖 題組：
The beautiful scenery and amazing creatures found below the waves are what draw most divers to the ocean. Some divers take up photography as a hobby. Diving magazines have been known to buy photographs of rare sea life from regular divers. \nAbove the surface, hired boats take tourists on whale watching trips. Whale watching during the right season allows people to see not only a variety of whale species, but seals and other sea animals as well. Some of the more eager watchers may even travel hundreds of miles to follow the paths of individual whales. Meanwhile, bird watchers work hard to discover new bird species. Serious bird watchers bring along their life lists, in which they record every species of bird that they have seen in the wild. Like whale watchers, “birders” sometimes hop continents on their mission to add new species to their lists. \nCollecting parts of animals is a common hobby. While buying or selling ivory is illegal, it can be made into profitable items such as chess sets, piano keys, and jewelry. Animal skins and furs and entire stuffed animals are often found at homes as decorating items. And the hobby of butterfly collecting is one of the oldest in the world. Russian author Vladimir Nabokov was known for his life-long passion for collecting butterflies. The world’s largest collection is found in Costa Rica, a nation with more butterfly species than the entire Africa.

當我們要向別人推薦一個觀察特定生物的最佳去處時，在文章中我們應該優先尋找關於「物種多樣性」或是「收藏規模」的哪一種具體數據描述呢？請試著在文章最後三句中尋找一個擁有「世界之最」紀錄的地名。

太棒了！你能精準捕捉到文章末尾的關鍵細節，這顯示你在閱讀長文時具備優秀的資訊檢索能力。這道題目測試的是讀者是否能將文中的事實陳述轉化為實際建議。在文章第三段末尾，作者明確指出 Costa Rica（哥斯大黎加）不僅擁有世界最大的蝴蝶收藏，其蝴蝶物種數量甚至超越了整個非洲大陸，這正是推薦給愛好者的最強力理由。
物種多樣性與資訊判讀
這題的鑑別度在於最後一段的比較級結構。雖然文中提到了俄國作家納博科夫（Vladimir Nabokov）對蝴蝶的熱愛，以及非洲這個地理區域，但那些資訊分別屬於「個人熱情」與「被超越的對象」。對於一位專家而言，推薦地點的首要考量通常是物種多樣性（Species diversity）。你沒有被其他出現的地名干擾，成功辨識出文中對哥斯大黎加在生物多樣性上的極高評價，這是一個非常準確且細膩的判斷！
