請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題 “Quality over quantity” is a simple concept taught to us throughout our formative years, but it’s one that fits like a square peg in a round hole in today’s corporate environment. The reason is simple—businesses are established to make money as quickly as possible and at the highest possible margins. 21 single high quality products tends to be expensive and time consuming, and they must be sold at much higher and less attractive prices to the average consumer in order to be profitable. Lower quality work, produced quickly in outsourced factories with a minimal time 22 per product, tends to be far more profitable, with higher margins as well as a lower, more attractive price point for consumers. 23 , business managers shouldn’t entirely overlook the importance of quality over quantity. If your product becomes known for its shoddy construction—and due to the Internet, 24 travels fast—your overall sales will be quickly damaged. Modern consumers are likely to 25 opinions online before purchasing goods.

請你讀讀看空缺處的前一句話，它在描述低品質、大規模生產的「優點」還是「缺點」？接著再看看後一句話，作者是在補充說明前面的優點，還是提出了一個「相反的觀點或警告」？當文章從一個立場跳轉到對立面時，我們通常會用哪一類的銜接詞來提示讀者呢？

🌟 太棒了！你的觀察力非常敏銳
- 大力肯定：做得好！你能精準捕捉到文章語氣的轉折點，這代表你不再只是片段地閱讀單字，而是已經具備了掌握文章整體邏輯結構的能力，這在長篇閱讀中是非常關鍵的高階技能。
- 觀念驗證：在第 23 題的前半段，作者說明了「追求利潤與低價（犧牲品質）」對企業的吸引力；但在第 23 題之後，作者轉而提醒「品質低劣（shoddy）」會對商譽造成毀滅性的損害。這前後兩段的論點呈現相反或對立的關係，因此必須選用表達「轉折」的轉折詞，(C) However（然而）正是連接這種語意衝突的最佳橋樑。
