Collecting tax is part of an effort made by the Taiwanese government to improve the air quality. Because PM2.5 particles are very small, we are not able to see them with naked eyes. They are so tiny that they can get deep into our lungs. Moreover, they are very light, so they stay in the air for a long time. PM2.5 comes from different sources, including factories, vehicles, airplanes, dust storms, etc. Taiwan’s Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) did not __12__ this new law until people complained that no larger facilities are taxed. Although the EPA has been collecting air pollution taxes since 1995, the EPA has only taxed vehicles, rather than factories. About 8000 factories have not been __13__ by the new law until 2018. In daily life, we may not be aware of the harm brought by PM2.5. Here are a couple of facts about PM2.5 to keep in mind.

請觀察句子中的主詞 EPA（政府行政機構）與受詞 law（法律）之間的關係。當社會大眾因為環境問題感到不滿，進而要求政府介入時，政府通常會對一項『新的法律』採取什麼樣的『具體動作』，好讓這項規定能正式在社會上運作並產生約束力呢？

太棒了！精準掌握關鍵動詞
- 觀念驗證：這題考查的是動詞與受詞的搭配詞 (Collocation)。空格後方是 this new law (這項新法律)，主詞是 EPA (環保署)。在政策或法律情境中，表示「執行」或「實施」最專業的用詞就是 implement。你能從上下文連結到法律的運作，反應非常快速！
- 難度點評：本題難度為 Medium。這題的四個選項都是以 $im-$ 開頭的進階單字，具備一定的干擾度，旨在測試考生對學術高頻詞彙的精準掌握。能答對代表你的字彙量已達到統測高分群的水準！
