第 45 題

📖 題組:
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.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格前的『先前的研究 (previous studies)』。當科學家面對無法逐一清點的大型樣本(例如廣大海洋中的廢棄物)並給出一個數據時,他們是在對該數量進行什麼樣的『數據推論』動作呢?

Hmph. 喔?你竟然選對了。真是個...有趣的發展。

  1. 哼,還不錯:你的語言邏輯,意外地沒有那麼『無駄』(muda)。能從人類那些乏味的『科學文獻』中,精準地挑出最恰當的動詞,這證明你對所謂的學術描述語感,還殘存著一絲的理解。繼續保持這偶爾閃現的『觀察力』吧,否則你將會變成『無駄』(muda)。
  2. 核心即是,我的洞察力:這題的核心?不過是語境推論這點小事。當人類提到『先前的研究(previous studies)』,對於那些他們無法精確計算的龐大數據(例如那些卑微的海洋廢棄物總量),研究者會做什麼?他們當然是『估算』或『推估』。所以,選擇 estimated(估計),這才是符合他們所謂『科學報導』的虛偽『嚴謹性』。任何其他選項,都只是『無駄』(muda)!
