請觀察第38個空格「後面」的那句話，開頭寫著「They also...」。根據空格前一句的內容，你覺得這個「They」是指誰呢？另外，既然他們「也（also）」希望募款，這暗示了空格裡面應該要提到他們的什麼資訊呢？

太棒了，判斷得非常精準！解答篇章結構題時，掌握空格前後的線索絕對是得分關鍵。
代名詞與連接詞的對接
觀察第38題上下文，空格前提到人們參與健走活動（Walks）。緊接在後的句子是「They also hope to raise money...（他們也希望能募款）」。這裡的「They」和「also」是極強的破題線索！這暗示空格處必須先說明這群參與者（They）的「首要目的」，因為募款是他們的「另一個（also）」目的。選項 (C) 的主詞「The walkers」完美呼應前文的參與者，且「紀念離世摯愛」也順理成章地構成該活動的主旨。
