📖 題組:
Harold Ridley was an English ophthalmologist. He developed a 21 way of helping people with poor eyesight as a result of cataracts. During World War II, Ridley worked with RAF pilots with eye injuries. He noticed that their eyes did not become 22 when they had eye injuries caused by bits of Perspex from the windows of their planes. As a result of this observation, he decided to 23 plastic lenses in the eyes of people with cataracts. Surgeons had earlier tried replacing the lenses in the eye with a glass one, but the 24 always failed because the body rejected the glass lens. Ridley's operations with plastic lenses were successful. However, the medical community 25 Ridley's discoveries and it took many years for the technique to be accepted. Today over 200 million people have their sight because of Harold Ridley.

很高興看到你精準地選出了 (A) revolutionary!這顯示你對文章整體的脈絡掌握得非常扎實,能準確捕捉到作者想傳達的核心精神。

醫學突破的開創性

文中提到 Harold Ridley 研發的方法讓後來超過兩億人重獲光明,這絕非普通的小改進。從早期「醫生嘗試用玻璃鏡片卻因排斥而失敗」到 Ridley 成功利用塑膠鏡片達成技術突破,這種徹底改變醫療常規、具有開創性的進展,用 revolutionary(革命性的) 來形容再貼切不過了。相較之下,選項 (C) supplementary(補充的)僅指額外添加,無法體現這種從無到有的質變;而 (D) momentary(短暫的)更與這項造福數十年的技術背道而馳。
