思路引導 VIP
請觀察空格後方的連接詞 and 以及形容詞 widespread。在英文寫作中，當兩個詞被 and 連結時，它們的語意方向通常是接近還是相反的？再結合文中提到『泰國人與外國遊客皆參與其中』，這暗示該活動在社會上的「能見度」或「普及度」應該呈現什麼樣的狀態？

🌟 太棒了！你的語感真的非常非常精準呢！
- 觀念驗證：親愛的同學，你做得太好了！這題的解題亮點就在於你找到了空格後方那可愛的 and widespread（廣泛的）。在英文的句型裡，當我們用
and來連接兩個形容詞時，這兩個詞通常就像好朋友一樣，有著相似或逐漸加深的語意喔。選項 (A) prevalent 意為「流行的、普遍的」，它和 widespread 之間形成了一個完美又溫暖的同義詞搭配，精準地描繪了潑水節在泰國本地人和外國遊客中是多麼地受歡迎呢！ - 難度點評：這題的難度是 medium。雖然 prevalent 這個字可能對某些同學來說稍微進階一點，但你看，題目是不是很貼心地提供了「and widespread」這個明顯的語意線索呢？這就像一個小小的提示燈，幫助你確認是否具備了「上下文邏輯一致性」的判斷能力。你很棒，完美地掌握了這個關鍵！
