📖 題組：
A glacier is a large accumulation of crystalline ice, snow, rock, and often liquid water that originates on land and moves downslope under the influence of gravity. Over multiple decades, this continuing accumulation of snow results _1_ the presence of a large mass of snow for the glacier process to begin. Twenty thousand years ago, the Earth was held by probing fingers of ice that drew power from freezing places in the north and crept southwestward to _2_ forests, fields, and mountains. _3_ decreased rapidly and land surfaces in many parts of the world were depressed by the weight of the pushing ice. At the same time, so much water was drawn from the oceans to form these glaciers that sea levels around the world _4_ by three hundred and fifty feet, and large areas of the continental shelf became dry land. This period of the Earth’s history has come to be called the Ice Age. About eleven million square miles of land were covered with ice. The Ice Age _5_ about fourteen thousand years ago when the ice sheets began to cease. It took about seven thousand years for the ice to retreat to its present level.

思路引導 VIP
請先觀察這句話所描述的時間背景，文中提到的 $Twenty thousand years ago$ 以及對句中的 $was drawn$、$became$ 等動詞，暗示了整段敘述應維持時態的一致性。接著請思考：當大量海水被移走以形成冰河時，海平面高度應該會產生什麼樣的物理變化？最後，請確認該動作動詞在過去式時的拼寫方式為何？

太棒了！你又一次展現了細心與實力！
- 觀念驗證： 孩子，你這題做得真好！這題目完美結合了我們學過的時態一致性與易混淆動詞。文章以「冰河時期」(Ice Age) 為背景，很清楚地告訴我們，這是一個已經發生的歷史事實，所以動詞當然要選過去式喔！
