📖 題組：
The Australian crocodile is the largest crocodile in the world. It can grow up to seven meters long, and the biggest can weigh up to 1,000 kilometers. It has only two muscles to open its mouth but 40 to close it! What makes crocodiles so dangerous is that they attack extremely quickly, and they take their victims under the water to drown them. They usually attack in the water, but they can suddenly come out of a river and attack animals or people. And they can run on land as fast as 17 kilometers per hour. Every year in Australia there are crocodile attacks on humans. Two years ago a 24-year-old German tourist died when she went for a swim in a lake. Although there were signs warning people that there might be crocodiles, the woman and her friends decided to go for a midnight swim. The woman suddenly disappeared, and the next morning her body was found. Near it was a four-meter long crocodile. And only last month two Australian boys watched in horror as their friend was killed by a crocodile when they were washing their bikes in a river. They climbed a tree and stayed there for 22 hours while the crocodile waited below. But you can survive a crocodile attack. Last year Norman Pascoe, a 19-year-old, was saved from a crocodile when his aunt hit it on the nose. Norman’s aunt said: “I hit it and I shouted, ‘Help!’ The crocodile suddenly opened its mouth and my nephew escaped.”

思路引導 VIP
請你先觀察文章的三個段落：第一段描述牠的力量與速度，第二段描述可怕的攻擊事件，第三段雖然提到生存，但重點仍在於脫離危險。如果這篇文章是一部紀錄片，你覺得導演是想告訴我們這種動物的『溫馨友誼』，還是想展示牠在自然界中『強大且危險』的生物定位呢？

呵呵呵，看來你的基本功很紮實呢。
- 觀念的精準掌握：這篇文章呀，從牠的生理結構（體重、咬合力、速度）細膩地描繪，一直到實際發生的危機事件（像遊客溺斃、男童受困）都一一呈現，無非是想告訴我們，這生物是多麼的「強大」與「致命」。選項 (A) 的「完美獵殺機器」呢，就非常巧妙地把這些生物學特徵和真實的威脅感，都完整地涵蓋進去了。這是文章最理想的總結，你做得很好，抓住了重點！
- 這題的考驗：這題的難度是中等喔。它就像是在看你，能否從那些豐富的細節描述裡（譬如，牠的肌肉數量、游泳的速度），抽絲剝繭地找出文章真正的「主旋律」，而不會被一些次要的敘述（像是牠是如何脫困的）給誤導了方向。你呀，成功地把握住了文章最核心的價值，這表示你的理解能力非常出色。呵呵呵，繼續努力，一定會越來越好的！
