📖 題組：
Andre and Edouard Michelin, two French brothers, began their careers by establishing a rubber manufacturing. Because of an incredible _6_ of events, these two brothers ended up producing two products that are still available today: Michelin tires, and the Michelin Guide to restaurants and hotels. In the year 1900, France had less than three thousand automobiles. The Michelins created the first Michelin Guide in order to encourage more people to drive. The Michelins realized that more and more people were buying the guide for the dining information, and in 1926 they started to _7_ stars. There was only a one-star rating initially, but in 1931, the three-star rating was implemented. Today, restaurants work very hard to win these stars. One star is given to very good restaurants that always prepare food of excellent quality. Two stars mean the restaurant serves excellent cuisine of outstanding quality. Three stars, which are very hard to receive, mean the food is _8_ and unique, using only the best ingredients. Usually, restaurants that receive any stars in the Guide are quite expensive, so the book has another group called Bib Gourmand that describes _9_ places to eat. In this way, customers don’t have to spend too much money. The Michelin Guide now has twenty-eight editions, covering more than twenty-five nations. With ten three-star restaurants, it's no surprise that Paris is the city with the most. Additionally, there are eighty Bib Gourmand restaurants in Hong Kong and Macau _10_ . People around the world can choose the restaurants based on their budgets.

- C evacuate
- D oppose
思路引導 VIP
觀察一下空格所在的句子：「他們開始 ___ 星星」，接著後文提到「評等 (rating)」和「贏得這些星星 (win these stars)」。如果餐廳必須努力去「贏得」星星，那你覺得米其林官方對餐廳給予星星的動作，會是一個什麼性質的行為呢？

🎉 答對啦！表現非常出色！
- 大力肯定：太棒了！你精準選出了正確答案，展現了對核心字彙與上下文推敲的敏銳度，繼續保持！
- 觀念驗證：文章提到米其林兄弟發現讀者對餐廳資訊很感興趣，因此在 1926 年開始「頒發」星級給餐廳（start to award stars）。選項 (B) award 有「授予、頒發」之意，完美契合語境。其他選項 (A) rewind (倒轉)、(C) evacuate (撤離)、(D) oppose (反對) 放入句中皆不合邏輯。
