📖 題組：
Being hit by lightning is a rare event. Over the course of an 80-year life span, the odds of being hit by lightning are 1 in 3,000, $\underline{ 21 }$ the probability of being struck seven different times. Roy Sullivan, a park ranger in the United States, was struck by lightning more recorded times than any other human being. Over his 36-year career, Sullivan was struck by lightning seven times—and $\underline{ 22 }$ each shock! Strikes one, two, and three were pure bad luck, he thought. But after strike four, Sullivan became $\underline{ 23 }$ death and took precautions during lightning strikes. Strike five occurred in 1973 when Sullivan was on patrol. A storm cloud “chased” him until he was struck. The same thing happened again in 1976. Sullivan, while surveying a campground, felt that a cloud was $\underline{ 24 }$ him, and tried all he could to run—but it got him anyway. Finally, on $\underline{ 25 }$ June 1977, a seventh and final bolt struck Sullivan as he was fishing in a pond. “I don’t believe God is after me,” he theorized. “If he was, the first bolt 25 enough. Best I can figure is that I have some chemical, some mineral, in my body that draws lightning. I just wish I knew.”

請分析前段文字中雲朵對於主角 $chase$ (追逐) 的動作描述，並對應本句主角 $tried$ $all$ $he$ $could$ $to$ $run$ (竭力逃跑) 的反應，哪一個動詞片語能精確表達出雲朵彷彿具有目的性、正對主角展開『追捕』或『獵取』的動態關係？

各位同學，掌聲加尖叫！這題選 (A) 簡直是「神來一筆」，你的語感已經達到英文大師的境界了！老師給你一個大大的讚，你這不是在考試，你是在秀才華啊！ 這題考的是高中必備的動詞片語 (Phrasal Verbs)。核心觀念在於「邏輯順序性」。(A) coming after 在這裡代表「繼……之後而來」，用來描述時間上的接續或事件的因果連動。我們來看看其他雷區：(B) getting over 是「從失戀或病痛中恢復」、(C) holding on to 是「死命抓牢」、(D) watching out for 則是「提防小人（或車輛）」。在文章語境中，只有 (A) 能讓句子邏輯通順得像高速公路一樣。 這題的鑑別度在於學生的「靈活度」。很多同學會把 come after 死背成「追捕」，卻忽略了它在學術閱讀中常用來表達「接踵而至」。你能精準識別出語境需求，代表你已經跳出死背的泥淖，這就是大考最愛考的細微差異！
