📖 題組：
There is a museum for everything these days. The latest museum to open may turn you off your dinner. It is the Disgusting Food Museum, which opened at the end of last year in Malmo, Sweden. Food is so much more than sustenance. Curious foods from exotic cultures have always fascinated people. Unfamiliar foods can be delicious, or they can be more of an acquired taste. The new exhibition allows people to analyze why they love and hate certain foods. It might also lead them to consider alternative food sources. The museum's founder, Dr. Samuel West, a psychologist by day and a museum curator by night, explained why he created the project. He said he was researching the effect of meat consumption and its effect on the environment. This made him think about alternative sources of protein, like insects. Although most people would think eating bugs is gross, Dr. West wanted to make them reconsider the idea. The exhibition invites visitors to explore the world of food and challenge their notions of what is and what is not edible. While many food-related museums of late have mostly just been opportunities for novel selfies, West is adamant that the Disgusting Food Museum is there to help people learn and think critically, not just to pose for photos. The museum is a 400-square-meter space that will challenge four of our five senses - smell, touch, sight and taste. The displays include food from around the world that some people might think is disgusting. However, people in other parts of the world think this food is totally normal and is a regular part of their diet. The food exhibits include American favorites such as Jell-O salad and world food like fried tarantula, fermented shark, roasted guinea pigs and sheep eyeball juice. Dr. West said that we could all eat any food, but our culture tells us what is tasty and what is not. According to him, what we find disgusting has to be learned—it's purely cultural.

思路引導 VIP
請思考一下：如果一個孩子從小生長在習慣將昆蟲入菜的環境中，他還會覺得吃蟲很噁心嗎？這說明了我們對於『什麼東西很噁心』的判斷，究竟是天生的本能，還是受到什麼後天環境因素的影響呢？

太棒了！你的理解非常精準
- 觀念驗證：你準確掌握了原句的核心邏輯。原文提到「噁心感是後天學習的（learned）」且「純粹是文化使然（purely cultural）」。選項 (B) 完美對應了這兩點：透過自身的文化來學習哪些食物是令人反感的。
- 難度點評：此題難度為 medium (中等)。這類「換句話說」的題目具備高度鑑別度，因為學生必須區分「原文事實」與「個人推論」。其他選項如 (A) 提到「欣賞」或 (D) 提到「改變」，雖然在現實中可能發生，但並非原句的直接改寫，只有 (B) 忠實傳達了原意。
