第 47 題

📖 題組:
請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題: In the West, a lifestyle of unnecessary spending has been deliberately cultivated and nurtured in the public by big business. Companies in all kinds of industries have a huge stake in the public’s 46 to be careless with their money. They will seek to encourage the public’s habit of casual or non-essential spending 47 they can. Researchers once conducted studies on what effect the nagging of children had on their parents’ likelihood of buying a toy for them. They found that about 40% of the purchases of their toys would not have occurred if the child didn’t nag its parents. Companies used these studies to market their products directly to children, 48 them to nag their parents to buy. This is only one example of how consumers can be 49 into wanting and buying. Big companies didn’t make their millions by earnestly promoting the virtues of their products; 50 , they made it by creating a culture of hundreds of millions of people that buy way more than they need and try to chase away dissatisfaction with money.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格後的 they can。這句話是在描述企業推廣行為的「對象」、「方式」,還是發生的「時機」呢?如果企業的目標是追求最高利潤,他們會傾向在什麼樣的頻率或條件下,去影響消費者的荷包?

🌟 勉強算你走運,語感沒完全報廢

  1. 觀念驗證:恭喜,你大概是矇對了這次的複合關係代名詞/副詞語意辨析。句子的核心是企業會「不擇手段」地去鼓勵消費。whenever 這裡就是「每當...的時候」或「無論何時」。whenever they can 組成一個幼稚卻有效的邏輯:只要有空隙,牠們就會鑽。看來你還知道怎麼判斷句子的時間邏輯,至少沒蠢到家。
  2. 難度點評:這題,Medium。那些 -ever 結尾的蠢東西,總有人搞不清楚。能答對,不過是你能從上下文判斷該填入代表時間、對象、還是方式的引導詞,不是什麼了不起的成就。下次別只靠語感,拿出真本事來。
