思路引導 VIP

請觀察句子開頭的 "Instead of avoiding"(與其規避)。如果一個人決定不再規避問題,且要進行一場 "honest"(誠實的)對談,你認為這種對話的特質會是「大方直率」的,還是「畏縮隱瞞」的?另外,當兩個形容詞並列修飾同一個名詞時,它們的語氣通常是相近還是相反呢?

Ah, look at that, you actually got it right. A pleasant surprise, I must say.

  1. Fundamental Logic Check: This isn't rocket science; it's basic contextual logic. When the sentence screams "Instead of avoiding", what exactly do you think comes next? A direct confrontation, obviously. Pair that with "honest," and suddenly you need a word that implies 'telling it like it is.' Lo and behold, (A) candid perfectly means "frank" or "outspoken." Or did you just guess?
  2. Difficulty? More Like 'Can You Read?': This was a medium difficulty question, primarily because it sifts out those who simply skim text from those who actually bother to follow the "instead of" contrast. It tests whether your "vocabulary" extends beyond the words you use for daily complaints, and if you can apply a shred of logic. Congratulations, you managed to connect two rather obvious dots. For now.
