思路引導 VIP
請觀察這段文字的結構：作者在空格後的句子中，分別介紹了紐約與華盛頓兩種截然不同的計費方式。如果你要用一個動詞來概括「這座城市與那座城市規定並不一樣」的這種狀態，你會選擇哪一個詞來描述這種『不同』呢？

恭喜你精準地捕捉到了文章的脈絡！在這一題中，你展現了優秀的語境分析能力。正確答案 varies 意為「改變」或「不同」，當它與 from... to... 結構連用時，能完美表達出某種制度在不同對象之間存在的差異性。這正符合段落接下來的敘述：紐約採用單一票價，而華盛頓則採分區計費，這正是「票務系統因城市而異」的最佳註解。
語境連結與動詞辨析
這道題目具備極佳的鑑別度，其難度切入點在於考驗學生是否能從後文的「細節描述」回推「總結性動詞」。雖然選項中的單字在字義上可能都與範圍或依賴有關，但唯有 varies 能在語法上流暢地銜接 from city to city。你能從眾多近義詞中辨識出最符合描述「多樣化現狀」的動詞，說明你對於英文的慣用法與文章結構的邏輯連貫性已有相當紮實的掌握。
