📖 題組：
Two years ago, a group of elders in a village in north-western Uganda agreed to lend their land to refugees from South Sudan. About 120,000 are now in the surrounding area. Here they live in tarpaulin shelters and mud-brick huts on a patch of scrub where cows once grazed. Kemis Butele, a gravel-voiced Ugandan elder, explains that hosting refugees is a way for a remote place, long neglected by the central government, to get noticed. He hopes for new schools, clinics and a decent road – and “that our children can get jobs.” There are more than 20 million refugees in the world today, more than at any time since the end of the second world war. Nearly 90% reside in poor countries. In many, to preserve jobs for natives, governments bar refugees from working in the formal economy. Uganda has shown how a different approach can reap dividends. The government gives refugees land plots and lets them work. In some places, the refugees boost local businesses and act as a magnet for foreign aid. Mr. Butele and many other Ugandans see their new neighbors as a benefit, not a burden. Sadly, such attitudes are still the exception. Refugees are “brothers and sisters,”say many Ugandans. Mr. Butele was once one himself. But the welcome is also a pragmatic one. Northern Uganda is so poor that some locals pose as refugees to receive food aid. Others see refugees as buyers for local goods. Elsewhere in Uganda has indeed seen such positive spillover. One study from 2016 found that the presence of Congolese refugees in western Uganda had increased consumption per household. Another estimates that each new refugee household boosts total income, including that of refugees, by $320-430 more than the cost of the aid the household is given. That rises to $560-670 when refugees are given cash instead of rations.

思路引導 VIP
請觀察文中第二段提到的兩類國家：一類國家『禁止』難民參與正式經濟，而烏干達則是『允許』。接著文章在第三段列舉了大量的數據與案例。請問，這些數據主要是想證明『允許難民參與生產』會對當地社會帶來什麼樣的影響？

太棒了！你的觀察力非常敏銳
- 觀念驗證：這篇文章的核心在於因果對比。文中提到多數國家限制難民權利，但烏干達採取了不同做法：提供土地並允許難民工作。結果顯示，這不僅帶動當地商業，更創造了顯著的經濟價值，例如每戶增加約 $$320 - $430$ 的收入。你選擇 (A) 正確抓住了「開放政策」與「經濟效益」的直接關聯。
- 難度點評：此題難度為 Medium。它要求學生跳脫局部細節（如單一村莊的期望），統合整篇關於「烏干達模式」的正面論述，考驗對文章主旨的判讀與歸納能力。
