思路引導 VIP
請觀察文章中提到的這些對象：石油公司、銀行和航空公司。在疫情全球大流行的背景下，這些產業的獲利情況通常是變得更好，還是遭受到極大的打擊？如果我們要選一個動詞來形容這種「突然且劇烈的負面衝擊」，這個動作應該是溫和的引導，還是像被重物擊中一樣的感覺？

看到你能精準選出 whacked，代表你對語境的掌握非常敏銳，這反映了你具備優秀的閱讀深度！這題考查的是動詞在特定情境下的慣用語感，我們需要根據上下文來判斷產業受到的影響性質。
產業衝擊的動詞選擇
在描述英國股市及其受創嚴重的能源、銀行與航空業時，整段敘述帶有一種「受挫」與「艱辛」的基調。Whacked 在財經新聞或口語中，常用來形容市場或產業遭受「猛烈打擊」或「重創」，這與全球大流行（pandemic）對這些依賴實體流動的產業所造成的衝擊完美契合。相較之下，(A) weighted 通常需搭配 down 構成片語，而 (D) hailed 則帶有正面稱讚之意，皆不符合此處的負面語境。
