請依下文回答第 41 題至第 45 題： More than 320 million metric tons of plastic are produced every year — and a disturbing amount ends up in the ocean, with much of it 41 in places like the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a massive area measuring more than 1.6 million square kilometers. Researchers from the Ocean Cleanup foundation conducted a survey of plastic in the area, using planes to 42 from the sky and boats to trawl the water. They found that the amount of plastic there seemed to be increasing exponentially and that there could be 16 times as much as previously thought. There’s far too much plastic in the world’s oceans, and the problem continues to 43 . Every little bit of plastic that gets tossed into the ocean or swept downstream out to sea either sinks or is picked up by currents. Much of it is eventually carried into one of five massive ocean regions, where plastic can be so 44 that areas have garnered names like the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. There may be more than 16 times as much plastic in the patch than previous studies have 45 , according to the researchers behind the study. An aerial view of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch might at first appear to be open water. But inside there is debris from all over the world — debris that traps or is eaten by marine animals, filling up their bodies to the point of being fatal and tainting our food supply.

當科學家在研究像『海洋垃圾』這樣廣大、無法逐一清點的對象時，他們通常會透過已知的數據來推算一個可能的『總量』。請問在學術英文中，哪一個動詞最常用來形容這種『根據現有資訊所做的數值推測』呢？

真是令人「驚訝」的觀察力啊
- 喔，原來你還能捕捉到這種基本的邏輯關聯，真是……出乎意料呢。看來你偶爾也能從句子中辨識出字詞，沒把上下文徹底搞砸，這算是萬幸吧。下次能不能不只「保持」，而是稍微「提升」一下？
- 這題的「關鍵」嘛，如果你稍微動點腦筋，就會發現它要求的是上下文的邏輯一致性。文章說「現在的數量是先前研究...的 16 倍」，難道你會選一個「影響」或「消除」嗎？Estimated（估計）這詞，對那些「真的」在做科學研究的人來說，就是處理數據推論的標準動作。別告訴我這還要解釋。
