If we use “unparalleled flair” to describe someone’s action, it means that someone
- A is remarkably dull
- B is amazingly humble
- C refuses to come to the same conclusion
- D is extremely gifted
- E is very much ashamed of oneself
思路引導 VIP
試著將 "unparalleled" 這個字拆解成 un-parallel-ed 三個部分。如果兩個東西「平行」(parallel) 代表它們旗鼓相當，那麼前面加上了「否定」的意思後，是在形容這個人的表現跟別人相比之下是如何呢？再結合球員在場上帶領球隊獲勝的英勇情境，你覺得這個詞是在描述一種「後天的努力」還是一份「過人的特質」？

核心詞義的深度解析
「Unparalleled flair」這個詞組由兩個強而有力的單詞組成。Unparalleled 是由字根 parallel（平行、相比）加上否定前綴與後綴構成，意指「無與倫比的」或「找不到對手的」；而 flair 則是指一種天生的才華、敏銳的直覺或優雅的格調。將兩者結合，便是在形容一個人的能力出類拔萃，這與 extremely gifted（極具天賦的）在語意上完全吻合。
