思路引導 VIP

太棒了！你能精準捕捉到文章末尾的關鍵線索並選出 (D) placebo，顯示你對醫學常識字彙及上下文邏輯的掌握非常扎實。這題的核心在於理解西方醫學界對拔罐療法的質疑態度，文中提到的「僅引發心理反應（simply evokes a psychological response）」正是解題的黃金線索。
安慰劑效應與語意銜接
在醫學領域中，placebo effect（安慰劑效應） 指的是病人雖然接受了實質上無效的治療，但因為「預期心理」而感覺症狀減輕或產生好轉的幻覺。選項 (D) 正好完美對應了後文所描述的「改善幸福感」與「心理反應」。相較之下，其他選項如 (A) crippling（造成嚴重損害的）、(B) butterfly（蝴蝶效應）與 (C) domino（骨牌效應）在語意上都與這段描述心理作用的文字完全不符。
