📖 題組：
Early this year, a new coronavirus ( 新冠狀病毒 ) caused the rapid spread of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Many countries began practicing “social distancing” to prevent infection spread by increasing the space between people. All over the world, social distancing brought about changes in people’s ways of living, learning, and working. Lifestyle changes due to social distancing affected almost everyone. People avoided crowded places and unnecessary traveling. In Italy, for example, church leaders spoke to followers online. Elsewhere, online shopping in Taiwan and home entertainment in China rose significantly in February. Social distancing also had an effect on learning. In Australia, when schools were still open, teachers tried not to let students mix in common areas that included the classroom, café and library. As the crisis worsened, schools closed one after another. By early April, over 90% of the world’s students were not attending school. In some places, such as Italy and Hong Kong, students turned to learning from home through Internet connection. To lower the risk of infection, companies put distance between employees in the workplace and told sick employees to stay home. Offices were generally flexible in the time and place of work. Furthermore, to keep the workplace safe, the United States passed a law to provide paid sick leave for all employees. This was to make sure that workers who fell ill with the coronavirus would stay home without fear of losing their income. In the fight against the coronavirus, people stayed apart to stay healthy. However, they all stayed connected to feel a sense of togetherness.

太棒了！你的觀察力非常敏銳！
- 觀念驗證：你準確掌握了「細節定位」的技巧。文章第三段明確提到，為了因應疫情，學校老師試圖不讓學生在公共區域（common areas）如咖啡廳、圖書館等地方聚集（mix），這與選項 (C) 的敘述「阻止學生在大群組中聚集以防感染」完全吻合。
- 難度點評：本題難度為 medium。它的鑑別度在於「細節陷阱」：例如 (A) 誤導學生 90% 是去「學用網路」，而 (D) 則是將「在家領薪」扭曲為「在辦公室領薪」。你能排除這些細微的錯誤選項，代表你的閱讀精準度很高！
