📖 題組：
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of 50-mile-thick plates that comprise the earth’s crust. More than two thousand earthquakes occur daily somewhere on our planet, but about 95 percent of them are too weak to be felt 11 sensitive seismometers. 12 are felt by humans, most cause relatively little damage, particularly if they occur in sparely 13 areas. Scientists have observed that certain phenomena seem to occur before an earthquake as the pressure within the plates intensifies. Myriads of tiny cracks appear in the rock, causing it to expand and uplift the ground above it. The pressure squeezes water out of the rock, thereby 14 nearby water levels. Also the rock becomes more resistant to electric current, and radon gas is released. Scientists hope that these 15 phenomena will provide keys to predict when and where an earthquake will occur, thereby enabling them to warn people to evacuate the area. While the earthquake itself cannot be prevented, at least lives may be saved.

想像一下，如果我們說某個極小的細胞「無法被肉眼看見」，但隨後提到「顯微鏡」可以觀測到它。這兩者之間存在著一種什麼樣的邏輯關係？你會如何用一個連接詞來表達這種「唯一的管道或例外情況」呢？

太棒了！你能精準選出 (B) except by，這代表你對於句子間的邏輯轉折與語意銜接有著敏銳的直覺。
排除邏輯與語意銜接
本題的關鍵在於理解前方的 too... to... 結構，句子提到「95% 的地震都太弱而無法被感覺到」，接著出現「靈敏的地震儀（sensitive seismometers）」。在邏輯上，地震儀屬於一種「例外工具」，能偵測到一般人感知不到的微弱震動。因此，使用 except by（除了透過……之外）最能完美契合語意，表達出「除非透過靈敏儀器，否則無法感知到這些地震」的限制關係。
