📖 題組:
An annular solar eclipse happens when the moon covers the sun’s center, leaving the sun’s visible outer edges to form a “ring of fire” around the moon. This can happen only twice this century, in 2020 and on June $21^{\text{st}}$, 2039. While people in Taiwan are lucky enough to witness the recent one, it is out of the question to see the latter as Taiwan will not be on the path shaded by the moon. Thanks to mostly sunny skies on June $21^{\text{st}}$ this summer, people across Taiwan flocked to museums, parks and schools for guided solar eclipse watching or simply observed the event from street corners, using protective eye gear. The momentum was especially high in Yunlin, Chiayi, Tainan, Kaohsiung, Nantou, Hualien and Taitung cities and counties, as well as the outlying islands of Penghu and Kinmen, as people there could witness the entire process of the eclipse. In Chiayi, the eclipse started at 2:49 p.m. and ended at 5:25 p.m., with the complete “ring of fire” taking place for less than a minute at 4:14 p.m., when 99 percent of the sun’s surface was blocked. The spectacle of the distinct stages of the eclipse drew crowds from across the country. According to intercity bus operator Kuo-Kuang Motor Transportation Company, passengers to Chiayi on Sunday were about 15 percent higher compared with the previous weekend. In Taipei, where only a partial solar eclipse was visible, around 10,000 people were estimated to have visited the Taipei Astronomical Museum. The last time the museum saw such heavy traffic was in July 2009, when a total solar eclipse took place. According to a museum official, the next time an annular solar eclipse covering such a large percentage of the sun will not be visible in Taiwan until June $28^{\text{th}}$, 2215. If you happen to miss this eclipse, don't despair. Visit our school website and you can watch the eclipse we have uploaded along with lots of information, images, and facts about this and other eclipses.
What do we learn from Taipei Astronomical Museum?
  • A People saw a perfect annular eclipse in Taipei in 2020.
  • B People in Taipei saw a total solar eclipse on June 21, 2009.
  • C As many as ten thousand people visit the museum every year.
  • D The next time to see an annular eclipse from Taiwan is 195 years from now.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察文章最後一段提到的那個具體未來的年份,並回頭對照文章第一段所描述的「本次事件」發生的年份。當你計算這兩個年份之間的時間跨度時,你會發現什麼有趣的數字聯繫嗎?

文意整合與數據推論

這題的關鍵在於最後一段的資訊提取。文中提到台北天文館官員指出,下一次在台灣能見到遮蔽範圍這麼大的日環食要等到 2215年 6月28日。而整篇文章的敘述背景是發生在 2020年 的天文盛事,透過簡單的減法運算:$2215 - 2020 = 195$,就能精確鎖定選項 (D) 為正確答案。
