思路引導 VIP
請試著思考：當我們在描述一個大的「整體」（如一個分類或群體）與其「組成部分」（如各個國家）之間的關係時，我們會用什麼樣的動詞概念去連結它們？如果把這個群體想像成一個成品，而這些國家是構成它的元素，你會如何描述兩者之間的關係？

太棒了！你能精準判斷出這裡需要填入表示「組成」的片語，這顯示你對英文的慣用法與句型邏輯有很敏銳的直覺。這句話的重點在於描述「第一類群體」是由哪些特定的「國家」所構成的，你選擇的答案完全符合語境的邏輯。
組成與成分的表達方式
在英文語法中，當我們要表達一個整體是由哪些元素或成員所構成時，be made of（或 be made up of）是一個非常道地且正確的用法。這裡的句子結構是將「群體」視為一個整體，再羅列出後續的國家作為其組成部分。雖然選項 (B) contained 同樣有包含的意思，但在習慣用法上，我們更常說一個容器「包含」內容物，而描述分類組成時，made of 能更貼切地傳遞出「構成」的意涵。
