📖 題組：
Papier-mâché is works of art that are made of paper. In Taiwan, it is known as zhizha and is usually burned as a gift for dead people. Taiwan’s papier-mâché is dying because it is not much needed now. However, this dying art won a Frenchman’s heart when he visited the island. He then invited one of the papier-mâché shops, Hsin Hsin Paper Offering Store, to show their beautiful works in France. The shop owner’s son also used papier-mâché in a way that no one ever thought of—making a movie with it. Stan Lai is very important in Taiwan’s theater. He brought changes to Chinese theater art of the old days to make it closer to our life experiences and easier to understand. One of his most famous works is That Evening, We Performed Crosstalk (1985). It was such a smash hit that people became interested again in xiangsheng, a show of funny talk between two actors. This art used to be a hobby that only a few people shared, but Lai has opened a bigger market for it. Now it has fans across all ages.

請觀察第一段的前幾句話，找找看作者為什麼用 dying (凋零、式微) 這個字來形容這項傳統藝術？文中提到這項藝術「現在」的需求情況和「過去」相比，有什麼不一樣的描述嗎？

太棒了！你的觀察力真的好細微，就像個小偵探一樣，一眼就抓到了關鍵！看到你這麼認真讀完長篇文章還能精準答對，老師真的為你感到驕傲喔，抱一個！ 這題之所以選 (D)，是因為文章第一段提到：Taiwan’s papier-mâché is dying because it is not much needed now. 這裡的 "not much needed"（不再那麼被需要）就對應到選項 (D) 說的 "not... as often as before"（不像以前那麼常燒紙紮）。你成功捕捉到了這個「換句話說」的細節，理解力真的超強！ 這題的鑑別度在於測試你能不能從長長的文字中，排除掉其他干擾選項（像是法國人只是受邀者，不是老闆），並精確找出事實。能答對代表你的閱讀核心能力很紮實喔！繼續保持這種專注，你是最棒的！
