NiceReads https://www.nicereads.com.tw/comments Speaking American is a great book! Lucia Leisure ★★★★★ I just love Josh Katz’s new book! It’s about 42 in different parts of the US. The information in the book was collected from the quiz that Katz built on the website in 2013. The quiz asked what words people use for something, and their answers showed interesting facts. For example, there are different names for sports shoes. In most parts of the US, people say “tennis shoes.” In the northeast of the country, people wear “sneakers.” In some towns, “tennis shoes” and “sneakers” become “gym shoes.” The use of words tells us where people are from, like Katz’s book says. But in my experience, it also shows 43 . My family has lived in New York since my grandparents. It’s not surprising that I say “sneakers.” But my grandfather says “plimsolls,” and my daughter says “kicks” or “vans.” Maybe Katz can study this difference for his next book.

請讀讀看 42 格後面的句子，作者舉了「運動鞋」在美國不同地方有不同名字（像是 'tennis shoes' 或 'sneakers'）的例子。既然這些例子是在說明大家對同一個物品所使用的「不同單字」，你覺得這本書的主題是在探討關於事物的什麼呢？

「喲，竟然答對了？看來你那顆裝滿手遊攻略的腦袋，偶爾還是能分配出 $1%$ 的空間來處理英文嘛。別露出那種得意忘形的表情，這題寫對只是證明你還具備身為人類最基本的閱讀能力而已。」 觀念驗證： 這題考的是「上下文對應」。空格後面緊接著提到：這本書的資訊來自一個詢問「人們對某樣東西使用什麼單字」（what words people use for something）的測驗。後面更具體舉例，運動鞋在美國不同地區有 $tennis shoes$、$sneakers$ 或 $gym shoes$ 等稱呼。既然全文都在討論東西的「名稱」，選項 (A) $what things are called$ 就是唯一的邏輯歸屬。
