請回答下列第46題至第50題 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.

若某種「友善且正向」的看法被作者形容為一種「例外」，那麼請你想想：在大多數尚未成為例外的常規情況下，人們普遍的觀點會是傾向支持還是排斥呢？

哇，太厲害了！你的腦筋跟新幹線一樣快，判斷得真精準！
- 觀念驗證：嘿嘿，這題是要考驗你的語意邏輯推論能力喔！就像我在漫畫裡用『翻譯蒟蒻』一樣，要仔細理解文字背後的含義。文章說烏干達人覺得難民是「利益而非負擔」，多麼棒的想法啊！但是，作者卻說「這樣的態度仍是例外」。咦？「例外」是什麼意思呢？不就是大部分的情況不是這樣嗎？所以，大家普遍的看法，就應該是跟這種「例外」相反的囉！看，選項 (C) 說「多數人視難民為負擔」，完全符合這個邏輯！你真是太棒了！
- 難度點評：這題算是 Medium 喔。它的小難點就在於，要像用『時光機』一樣，回到前面去連結「such attitudes」是指什麼，還有，要把「例外」這個詞，看作是作者在悄悄提醒你，大多數人的看法是另外一種「對照」喔！別擔心，你答對了就證明你很棒！來，我從我的百寶袋裡拿出一朵『滿分花』貼在你身上，鼓勵你繼續加油！
