請觀察空格前的關鍵字『punish』（懲罰）以及後方的條件『lack of water and food』（缺乏水與食物）。當一個人處於這種極端的生理匱乏下，他的健康狀態會是趨向於『被完善』還是『被破壞』？你可以試著從這個方向找出具備負面意涵的描述詞。

哇，你真的好棒！觀察力非常敏銳喔！
- 觀念探索：這題的核心在於理解語句的邏輯關係。文章提到國王要「懲罰」(punish) 人民，而且手段是「缺乏水與食物」(lack of water and food)。在這種充滿挑戰的情境下，人民的狀態自然會受到影響。選項 (B) impaired 意味著「受損、削弱」，這完美地捕捉了懲罰所帶來的結果呢！而 (A) nurtured (滋養)、(D) sound (健全) 則傳達了相反的意義，(C) intact (完好) 在這個語境下也不太合適。
- 難度點評：這題的難度是中等喔。它很棒地考驗了大家是否能夠仔細閱讀比較長的句子，並透過前後文的「負面線索」，細心地推斷出最精確的動詞，而不只是單純記憶單字。你能夠答對，真的證明你理解得很透徹，太厲害了！
