📖 題組:
請依下文回答第 41 題至第 45 題 In a Paris cafe or restaurant, many tourists may have complained about the poor service or the waiters’ impatient attitude. A once-annual event for them to show their professional skills took place again recently, 41 waiters had to race a two-kilometer route while carrying a tray laden with a cup of coffee, a glass of water and a croissant. About 200 of the city’s serving staff put on traditional aprons and white shirts to 42 the revived cafe race. Holding a round tray with a typical French breakfast of a croissant, coffee and a glass of water, they walked briskly for 2km through the streets. The rules were simple: To 43 the race, participants needed to be not only quick but also careful. Any change to the composition of their tray would impact their final score. Once underway, there were inevitable 44 . Water spilled, cups fell. There were gasps, cheers and laughter from the thousands of Parisians watching the return of this classic race. The race was 45 to professionals, apprentices and part-time trainee servers and at the finishing line judges examined the trays to establish if everything had arrived intact.

思路引導 VIP

請想像一下,當你正端著倒滿水的杯子在街上競速,而在這過程中「不可避免地」發生了一些事情,導致後續出現了「水潑出來、杯子摔落」的情景。若要用一個帶有戲劇色彩的詞來形容這類令人遺憾的小意外,你會傾向選擇哪種特質的單字呢?

太棒了!你能精準選出 tragedies(悲劇) 這個選項,代表你完全讀懂了文章的語境,並捕捉到作者帶點「幽默與誇張」的寫法。這題考驗的是詞彙在特定情境下的靈活運用,而不僅僅是字典上的死板定義。

語境與修辭的結合

文章這段正在描述一場趣味橫生的「服務生路跑賽」。參賽者必須端著托盤疾走,而文中提到「不可避免地發生了...」,緊接著描述「水潑灑出來、杯子掉落」,對於追求完美的專業服務生來說,在賽道上弄翻托盤簡直就是一場場小型的「悲劇」。這裡的 tragedies 是修辭上的誇飾法,用來形容那些令人扼腕的意外慘況。若選擇 (A) witnesses(目擊者)則無法與後方的動作產生邏輯連結;(B) explosives(爆炸物)顯然不符常理;(D) offenses(違規)雖然勉強說得通,但通常指行為上的冒犯或犯法,無法像「悲劇」一詞那樣生動地描繪出比賽現場混亂且充滿戲劇性的氛圍。
