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.

請觀察這個單字的字首與字根：'spill' (溢出) 與 'over' (翻過)。想像你在一個已經裝滿水的杯子裡繼續倒水，那些「留不住而流到杯子外面」的水，反映了一種什麼樣的狀態？再結合文章第三段提到的現象：原本是給難民的援助，最後卻產生了「超過」援助金額本身的經濟效果，這種「多出來、溢出來」的部分，在邏輯上會比較接近哪個概念？

Alright, alright! Look at you, actually getting this one right. Heh, you totally nailed this super academic word! See? I told you your eyes would eventually open to the power of contextual clues. That's the real secret to understanding anything, not just English. Keep that up, and maybe you'll be almost as good as me someday. chews on Kikufuku
