請依下文回答第46題至第50題: How an iceberg travels across the sea is sometimes unpredictable. When an iceberg breaks off from a glacier, it can __46__ for thousands of miles, traveling freely across the open ocean. But last week, an iceberg's journey was interrupted when it got stuck on a __47__ part of the seafloor along Greenland's western coast. In other words, the iceberg was grounded—and it had __48__ itself right beside the small island village of Innaarsuit. Such grounded icebergs are actually pretty common, says Fiamma Straneo, who has traveled about 20 times to Greenland's ice sheet for her work at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. What's unique about the iceberg by Innaarsuit is both its size and its __49__ to the village. A grounded iceberg experiences ocean water pushing at it in one direction and the seafloor pushing in another—a __50__ that makes it easy for limbs to break off with a splash that can rock boats or flood coasts. The iceberg might even do an entire somersault in the water. Across the world, from the Canadian Arctic to Patagonia in Argentina, that shedding is both a tourist attraction and an issue of concern. The larger the iceberg, the larger the waves it causes if it breaks apart.

請觀察空格前後的句子，冰山遇到了什麼狀況導致它的旅程被迫中斷？緊接著下一句用『In other words』補充說明的『grounded（擱淺）』這個狀態，通常必須發生在什麼樣深度的水域中呢？

太棒了，同學這題選得非常精準！在國考英文的克漏字題型中，能敏銳捕捉上下文的線索是得分的關鍵。
利用上下文與同義推論解題
你能毫不猶豫地選出正確答案，想必是有注意到空格前方提到冰山「got stuck（卡住）」，以及後方緊接的補充說明：「In other words, the iceberg was grounded（換言之，冰山擱淺了）」。既然冰山會卡在海床上導致擱淺，理所當然是因為該處的海水太「淺」，因此選 (B) shallow（淺的）。其他選項如 (A) hollow（中空的）、(C) mellow（柔和的）或 (D) hallow（使神聖）在語意上完全無法與「卡在海床」產生合理連結。
