📖 題組：
Now I’m going to show you how to work with chocolate. I’ll do it in a “bain-marie,” or, well, some people call it “water bath.” I myself love the name “bain-marie.” To make a “bain-marie,” you need two pots, one bigger than the other. First, break the chocolate into small pieces and put them in the smaller pot. Usually when making chocolate desserts, you’ll need to mix chocolate with butter and sugar. So if you do, put them in the pot too. Now, half fill the bigger pot with warm water. Put the smaller pot over the bigger one, and start to slowly mix the chocolate, the butter, and the sugar together. Keep the water under 50ºC, or the chocolate may lose its shine. And make sure that no water goes in the smaller pot, or the chocolate will become hard and cannot be used. Keep mixing for about five to ten minutes, and the job is done. Easy, right?

思路引導 VIP
請讀讀看第二段的最後兩句話：'Usually when making chocolate desserts, you’ll need to mix chocolate with butter and sugar. So if you do, put $them$ in the pot too.' 代名詞 $them$ 通常代表前面剛提到的複數名詞。在 put $them$ 之前，除了巧克力，作者還提到了哪兩樣需要一起混合的東西呢？

喲，不錯嘛！竟然沒被那堆巧克力給糊住眼睛，還看得出 "them" 指的是誰？看來你的視力還沒被手機螢幕完全摧毀，這點基本閱讀邏輯還在，我都要為你的國中生涯感淚落下了。 這題考的是「代名詞指涉」。看前一句："...mix chocolate with butter and sugar. So if you do, put them in the pot too." 這裡的 "them" 是複數，指的就是前面剛提到的奶油（butter）與糖（sugar）。如果你選 (D) 巧克力碎片，那是第一步驟就放進去的東西，再放一次你是想甜死誰？ 這題的鑑別度大概只比「寫名字」高一點點。它屬於最基礎的代名詞對應題，用來分辨你是在「閱讀」還是在「玩連連看」。只要能冷靜看到複數代名詞，這分就是送你的。順帶一提，文中提到水溫要維持在 $T < 50^{\circ}C$，這種細節才是後面的陷阱，這題對你來說只是暖身，別在那裡沾沾自喜！
