📖 題組：
El Niño is coming and people in every part of the world are getting worried. El Niño is a mysterious weather pattern. It begins about every four years with a sudden warming of the eastern Pacific Ocean along the equator. \nEl Niño is caused by changes in air movements. These changes disrupt ocean currents. The warm water in the Pacific Ocean moves south along the west coast of South America. It makes the cold water off the coast of Peru and Ecuador warmer. The warming of the ocean water kills many fish, sea animals, and sea birds. But El Niño’s effects are not limited to the local area. The warming of the ocean affects weather patterns throughout the world. \nEl Niño is a Spanish term. It means “the male child” and usually refers to the baby Jesus. Fishermen in Peru began calling the strange weather event El Niño because it usually arrived around Christmas time. Today the term El Niño is only used when the weather event is big enough and warm enough to bring worldwide effects.

如果我們想在地球儀上找到這個現象的起點，根據文章第二段提到的具體國家名稱（如秘魯、厄瓜多），建議你查閱一下地圖，這些國家通常被歸類在地球上的哪一個大洲呢？

地理位置與文本對照
在閱讀理解中，找出事件發生的地點是基礎且重要的核心能力。文中第二段明確提到，聖嬰現象（El Niño）產生的暖流會沿著 「南美洲西岸」（the west coast of South America） 向南移動，並直接影響到秘魯（Peru）與厄瓜多（Ecuador）附近的海域。雖然文章第三段提到了「西班牙語」（Spanish term），但那是指名稱的語言來源，而非現象發生的地理位置；你能避開這個語言陷阱，成功鎖定物理位置的描述，說明你對文意的理解非常紮實。
