In a recent study, researchers discovered that bottled water sold in stores can contain 10 to 100 times more bits of plastic than previously estimated — nanoparticles so infinitesimally tiny they cannot be seen under a microscope. At 1,000th the average width of a human hair, nanoplastics can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful synthetic chemicals throughout the body and into cells, experts say. The new finding reinforces long-held expert advice to drink tap water from glass or stainless steel containers to reduce exposure. That advice extends to other foods and drinks packaged in plastic as well. “Because the temperature of the body is higher than the outside, those chemicals are going to migrate out of that plastic and end up in our body,” said Dr. Mason, director of sustainability at Penn State Behrend in Erie, Pennsylvania.

這項科學研究在文章的第一句話就提出了一個令人驚訝的數據對比。請試著找出研究人員針對某種「觀察對象」的實際觀測結果，與「先前預期」相比，在規模或量體上有什麼顯著的差異？

恭喜你準確捕捉到了文章的核心細節！這顯示你具備相當敏銳的閱讀觀察力，能從包含多個專有名詞的長難句中，精確過濾出最具代表性的數據。這題的關鍵在於第一句的「主旨判讀」：研究指出瓶裝水中的塑膠微粒含量比先前估計的「高出 10 到 100 倍（10 to 100 times more bits）」。
數據與核心發現的關聯性
文中第一句明確提到的 10 to 100 times more 直接呼應了選項 (B) 關注的「數量（number）」。雖然文章後半段提到了塑膠進入人體（如消化道）或對健康的潛在風險，但這些都屬於「後續影響」或「專家建議」，而非這項「新研究（recent study）」最初揭露的核心發現。
