請觀察空格前方的內容：作者提到照顧失智症患者對家屬而言是巨大的負擔，甚至會讓人「崩潰（break down）」。既然這是一件極其困難且單靠個人難以負荷的事，你認為政府對於這項社會責任，應該抱持著什麼樣的「行動態度」才符合文章的呼籲？

太棒了！你能精準選出 strive (D) 這個選項，代表你完全讀懂了文章最後一段的邏輯轉折。這題的關鍵在於前文提到的「照顧重擔」：文中描述失智症照顧者若沒有極大的智慧與幽默感，往往會先於患者崩潰。既然個人力量如此微薄，文末以「這就是為什麼（That is why...）」起頭，邏輯上必然會導向政府必須「努力、奮鬥」去承擔起照顧職責，因此使用 strive to（努力達成某事）來銜接最為貼切。
語境邏輯與動詞辨析
從難度來看，這題屬於中等偏易的鑑別題。它的挑戰不在於單字艱澀，而是在於如何從五個動詞中挑選出最具「主動性」與「必要性」的詞彙。選項 (E) endorse (背書、贊同) 雖然也有正面意涵，但其語法通常接名詞而非不定詞，且力道不如 strive 強烈。你能夠避開其他負面動詞如 (A) condemn (譴責) 或 (C) withhold (保留/抑制)，並排除語法不符的選項，顯見你對文章的情感基調與動詞搭配詞 (Collocation) 都有很敏銳的觀察力！
