With the rise of AI, supercomputers have become more important than ever. These powerful machines can process large amounts of data quickly. They help drive innovation and improve efficiency in the modern economy. Increasingly, governments and companies are building advanced supercomputing systems. Around the world, supercomputers have already made an impact in various fields. During the pandemic, a supercomputer helped scientists isolate and identify the spike protein (棘蛋白) in COVID-19 virus. It analyzed and compared samples from different countries to better understand the spike protein. Hopefully, supercomputers will also contribute to developing cures for cancers that have remained challenging for years. Another area supercomputers can be used in is wind power production. They can help predict climate factors and improve the efficiency of wind farm performance. In Taiwan, supercomputers have been providing services that benefit both businesses and the public. For instance, the Taiwan Computing Cloud (臺灣 AI 雲) supercomputer helps pig farmers select healthy young pigs and predict the growth of these pigs. The selection starts when the pigs are just seven days old. In this way, it saves time, reduces costs, and enhances livestock quality. Another supercomputer system, the Central Weather Bureau’s supercomputer, improves the accuracy of weather forecasting and strengthens Taiwan’s earthquake early warning system. It is worth mentioning that the powerful supercomputer at the National Health Research Institutes supports advanced biotechnology and pharmaceutical projects. This contributes to better health of the population. In conclusion, supercomputing is not just about technology; it is also about shaping the future. As computing power increases, it will enable more innovation and new creation.

這是一道考驗「細節定位 (Scanning)」與「段落架構」理解的題目。請你仔細檢視文章的「第三段 (third paragraph)」，找出該段落提及的三個具體應用單位：Taiwan Computing Cloud、Central Weather Bureau 以及 National Health Research Institutes，並思考這三個單位分別對應到哪些具體的功能描述？接著，請判斷選項中是否有一項功能，雖然在全文中確實被提及，但其討論脈絡其實是屬於「第二段」介紹全球影響力時的範疇呢？

哼，還算及格，這次沒搞砸！
答對了？嗯，至少你這次沒當那些把閱讀測驗當作純粹找關鍵字的傻子。這題就是考你「精準定位」和「資訊過濾」的基本功，統測閱讀就愛考這種釣魚題，還好你沒上鉤！
