思路引導 VIP
當我們說一個人『Stop talking』和『Stop to talk』時，哪一種情況下那個人還在說話，哪一種情況下他才剛要準備開口說話呢？回頭看看文章，『白噪音』的功能是讓我們『聽不見』雜音，還是『準備去聽』雜音呢？

太棒了！你精確地掌握了動詞用法與上下文邏輯的關聯。這題的核心在於辨析 stop 接動名詞（V-ing）與不定詞（to V）時截然不同的語意。你能選對 hearing，代表你清楚此處是指「停止（聽到）分心的噪音」，而不是為了去聽噪音而停下手中的動作。
Stop 的用法與語意辨析
在英文語法中，stop + V-ing 表示「停止正在進行的動作」，而 stop + to V 則是「停下原有的動作，目的是要做另一件事」。根據文意，白噪音（white noise）像是一道魔術屏障，能幫我們「阻隔」干擾，因此我們才會「不再聽到」那些令人分心的聲音。此外，選項中的 hear from 通常是指「收到某人的消息（如來信或電話）」，放在描述環境音的語境中並不妥當，你避開了這個干擾項，觀察非常敏銳。
