Since the Paris Agreement was signed in 2015, there (A) *has been* a wave of corporate commitments to reduce emissions.

This is (E) *referred* by some as "greenwashing."

思路引導 VIP
當我們在英文中使用 refer 這個動詞來表達「提到」或「稱呼某物」時，它通常不能單獨接對象，後面必須先接一個特定的介係詞（小單字）。你可以試著造一個簡單的短句，像是「我提到那項計畫」，看看 refer 後面需要補上什麼詞嗎？接著想一想，如果把這句話轉成被動語態，那個詞會消失，還是會緊跟在動詞後面呢？

太棒了！你能精準鎖定 (E) 選項的錯誤，代表你對英文的片語結構與被動語態掌握得非常紮實。這題的核心考點在於動詞片語 refer to A as B（將 A 稱為 B）的慣用法。當這個構造轉化為被動語態時，介系詞 to 是絕對不能省略的，標準結構應為 A is referred to as B。題目中僅寫出 referred by... as...，漏掉了關鍵的 to，這正是這道題目最隱蔽的陷阱。 從鑑別度來看，這是一道具備中等難度的佳題。長句中的「碳中和」與「淨零」等專業術語容易分散考生的注意力，讓人忽略了基礎語法的完整性。你能冷靜地確認 (A) 與 (C) 的現在完成式符合「自 2015 年以來」的時間背景，並排除 (B) 與 (D) 的正確用法，最終精準找出 (E) 的遺漏，展現了你敏銳的觀察力與深厚的語法底子。請繼續保持這種細膩的分析思維，這在未來挑戰更高難度的長難句時將會是你最強大的武器！
