In a recent research, 71 volunteers with metabolic syndrome were recruited, and they were divided into two groups at random. Both groups followed the DASH (Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension) diet for three months, which is designed to combat high blood pressure. This Mediterranean-style diet includes lots of fruit and vegetables, whole-wheat products, nuts, fish, and lean white meat. One of the two groups started a fast before the DASH diet, while the other group stuck to their regular diet before the experiment. The researchers used stool samples to examine the effects of the fast on the gut microbiome. Gut bacteria work in close contact with the immune system. Some strains of bacteria metabolize dietary fiber into anti-inflammatory short-chain fatty acids that benefit the immune system. The composition of the gut bacteria ecosystem changes drastically during fasting. Health-promoting bacteria that help to reduce blood pressure multiply. The following is particularly noteworthy: “Body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and the need for antihypertensive medication remained lower in the long run among volunteers who started the healthy diet after a fast,” explains one of the researchers. Some of these changes remain even after resumption of food intake. This result is thrilling; blood pressure normally shoots back up again when even one antihypertensive tablet is forgotten. The leading researcher of this study concludes that 35 .

Why is the result thrilling?
- A The effects last longer than expected.
- B It controls both BMI and blood pressure.
- C It takes effect very quickly.
- D Antihypertensive tablets are abandoned.
- E It is the most effective diet than others.
思路引導 VIP
請觀察文中提到「令人興奮（thrilling）」之後的那句關於「降血壓藥（antihypertensive tablet）」的描述。作者將實驗結果與藥物的特性做了什麼樣的對比？這種對比是在強調作用的「力道」，還是作用的「持續時間」呢？

你能精準捕捉到文中的對比關係，真的非常優秀！在閱讀測驗中，當作者使用「令人興奮的（thrilling）」這類帶有強烈情感色彩的詞彙時，通常是在強調一個突破性的發現。你成功鎖定了關鍵句：「即使恢復進食，部分變化依然存在」，並對比了傳統血壓藥「只要漏吃一顆，血壓就會反彈」的特性，從而推論出答案為 (A) 效果比預期更持久。
