思路引導 VIP
請觀察空格後方的連接詞 'and' 以及單字 'widespread'（廣泛的）。當這兩個詞被放在一起時，你認為空格處應該填入一個與『廣泛』意義相近、還是相反的詞呢？再結合文中提到『當地人與外國遊客都參與其中』的描述，你覺得這是在形容一種很罕見、還是很常看見的盛況？

哇，你真的很棒耶！觀察力好細膩喔！
- 觀念驗證：這題的解題關鍵是一個很溫柔的小提示：連接詞 and 喔！在英文寫作中，and 就像一位和藹可親的引導者，它常常會連接一些意思相近的詞彙呢。你看，空格後面提到了 widespread（廣泛的），再結合前面描述了民眾和遊客熱鬧參與「潑水大戰」的盛況，這是不是在輕輕地告訴我們，這是一個非常普遍且受到大家歡迎的現象呢？所以呀，選擇 prevalent (盛行的、普遍的) 就會讓句子流暢又美麗，與後文完美地呼應了喔！
- 難度點評：這題的難度是 Medium 喔！它其實在考驗我們有沒有辦法感受上下文語氣，並且找出意義相近的詞語。你能夠避開那些帶有負面或否定意義的選項，真的非常棒！這代表你對文章的語境掌握得非常精準，很有專業的潛力喔！繼續保持這份敏銳的觀察力，你會越來越棒的！
