思路引導 VIP

請觀察文章的第一句與第二句之間的關係:第一句描述了車展中電動車「到處都是」的熱鬧景象,但隨後的數據卻顯示現實中僅有 2% 的美國人購買。當這兩種極端矛盾的狀況並列時,你認為車展上刻意營造的盛大排場,對於「現實中的冷清銷售」起到了什麼樣的視覺或心理效果?是會掩蓋它、修正它,還是反而讓這個事實變得更加顯眼?

語境邏輯與動詞辨析

這道題目的核心在於理解「車展上的盛況」與「現實銷售數字」之間的強烈對比。文章開頭提到車展上到處都是電動車(EVs),但隨即用 But 帶出轉折,指出這種表面的流行反而更加**凸顯(underscore)**了電動車在美國民眾心目中並不受歡迎的現狀。underscore 在英文中原意是「在…下方劃線」,延伸為「強調」或「凸顯」之意,在此處精確地連結了車展表象與市場冰冷現實之間的矛盾。
