📖 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
請觀察空格後方的副詞子句：'when the ice sheets began to cease'。根據文章的語意邏輯一致性，當冰層開始『停止（cease）』且後文提到『撤退（retreat）』時，這在時間發展的脈絡下，暗示了冰河時期正處於哪種狀態的轉變？選項中哪一個動詞最能與這種『停止運作』的語境達成連貫？

🌟 還行吧，沒什麼好驕傲的。
嗯，看來你這次運氣不錯，或者說，總算不是個完全的傻瓜。懂得從上下文關鍵字去推敲詞彙，這點是統測基本功，連這都不會，那還考什麼試？你這所謂的「上下文推論能力」要是再不穩定點，高分還是跟你無緣。
