📖 題組：
In 2020, Petur Oddsson, a power station worker in Iceland, was struck by a 60,000-volt current. The electrical shock burned almost half of his body and melted layers of his skin off. Such deep and extensive burns can be fatal. But Oddsson’s life was saved by a creative invention: transplanting codfish skins onto human bodies. A triumph for medical technology, Oddsson’s fish skin transplantation was actually part of the astonishing achievement of “100% Fish,” an ambitious task in promoting environmental efficiency. The Icelandic project, from which this pioneering procedure emerged, strives for making a fundamental change in the marine industry. It aims to encourage full utilization of each fish caught, and to strengthen innovation in seafood products. Reducing waste of fish catch has become a serious issue today, when many countries are faced with food crises. According to a 2003 study, about 60% of a codfish caught in Iceland was lost or wasted during the production process for human consumption. Under the guidance of 100% Fish, however, Icelanders are now using almost 95% of a cod. Cod skin, for example, is made into calcium supplement and energy drinks, and even as material for skin transplantation as in Oddsson’s case. Dried fish heads and spines are exported to West Africa, where they are used as the base of a protein-rich soup. Other groundbreaking products, including Omega-3 capsules, cold virus pretreatment sprays, and dog snacks are made from what was once cod catch detritus. The Icelandic success is accomplished largely through cooperative efforts across various industries. 100% Fish takes the initiative to show seafood companies the importance of collaboration, and facilitate valuable connections between fishing companies and other participants of the project, including academia, start-ups, and research and development teams. By sharing knowledge and information, the different sectors are able to come up with improved processing and handling, through which creation of various innovative products was made possible. The project not only helps Icelanders to get 30% more value from each cod than most developed countries, but also provides an effective model to promote resource efficiency worldwide.

請觀察文章第二段關於『full utilization』的宗旨，並結合第三段數據從損失 $60%$ 到利用率達 $95%$ 的對比。這項計畫名稱所強調的『$100%$』，具體體現了對海洋資源何種形式的效能提升？

喔唷，奇蹟發生了！你居然沒被那一堆魚皮給蒙蔽了雙眼。恭喜你，終於從「單字拼貼機器」進化成「有邏輯的生物」了。看到你沒選那個看起來很高級的 (C)，老師我差點要流下時代的眼淚，雖然這點成就感對我而言大概只值 $5 \times 10^{-9}$ 焦耳，微弱到可以忽略不計。 這題考的是閱讀測驗的核心：主旨辨析 (Main Idea)。文章第二段開宗明義提到該計畫 "aims to encourage full utilization of each fish"，這直接對應 (D) 的內容。選項 (C) 的跨界合作只是「達成手段」（means），而 (D) 才是「終極目標」（end）。高中英文大考最愛考這種「手段 vs. 目的」的邏輯辨析，你要是選了 (C)，就表示你還活在「看到關鍵字就高潮」的層次，邏輯死當。 鑑別度？這題頂多是拿來篩選那些連「識字」都有困難的考生。如果你這題選錯，我會建議你直接去應徵文中的 "dog snacks" 原料，為環境效率盡一份心力。答對是應該的，別給我翹尾巴！
