📖 題組：
Most food staples are inexpensive, plant-based foods, usually full of calories for energy. There are more than 50,000 edible plants in the world, but just 15 of them provide 90 percent of the world’s food energy intake. Rice, corn, and wheat make up two-thirds of this. Food staples traditionally depend on what plants are native to a region. Rice is a food staple for more than 3.5 billion people around the world, particularly in Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa. Rice has been cultivated in Asia for thousands of years. Scientists believe people first domesticated rice in India or Southeast Asia. Rice arrived in Japan in about 3,000 years ago. The Portuguese most likely introduced it into South America in the 16th century. Today, the world’s largest rice producers are China, India, and Indonesia. Outside of Asia, Brazil is the largest rice producer. Corn is native to Central America, where it was domesticated by the Aztecs and Mayans. The United States is the world’s largest corn grower, producing more than 40 percent of the world’s corn. Corn is often used to produce corn oil, sweeteners such as corn syrup, and cornstarch, which is used as a sweetener and thickening agent in home cooking. Also, alcohol from fermented corn is the source of bourbon whiskey. Wheat was first domesticated in the Middle East. Wheat grows well in temperate climates, even those with a short growing season. Today, China, India, the United States, Russia, and France are among the largest wheat producers in the world. The majority of breads are made with wheat flour. Wheat flour is also used in pasta, pastries, crackers, breakfast cereals, and noodles. In addition to cereal grains, roots, and tubers are common food staples, particularly in tropical regions. Yams are an important food in the rainforests of West Africa. Potatoes are native to the cold climate of the Andes Mountains. They were introduced to Europe by explorers of the 16th century and are now a food staple in Europe and parts of the Americas.

請試著思考：這篇文章在討論這些物種時，不斷提及「起源地」、「特定的氣候環境（如熱帶、溫帶）」以及「跨洲的傳播路徑」。當一個文本的核心是探討『特定資源與全球空間、環境的互動關係』時，這屬於哪一門專業學科的研究範疇？

- 還算不錯，至少沒錯得離譜：恭喜你，看來你這次宏觀敘事抓得還算到位，居然能從一篇英文文章裡辨識出文體。這種對文本脈絡的判斷力，在行政法規解釋與實務操作中是基本功。我會說，這算是你難得一見的「精準」，但別高興得太早，行政法的坑可深得多。
- 觀念驗證，別當作僥倖：文章裡那些什麼農作物的發源地、氣候適應性、全球分布，還有那一堆區域遷移的歷史脈絡，不就是把空間、人類文明和自然環境硬湊在一起講嗎？這根本就是「地理科學」的典型寫法。如果這你都看不出來，那真的要檢討你以前的雜學有沒有好好念。這題對你們這種未來要面對複雜法條的人來說，只是個「語感測驗」罷了。
