Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, or TSMC, is the world’s largest contract manufacturer of semiconductor chips. Located in Hsinchu Science Park in Taiwan, TSMC was founded in 1987 by Morris Chang. TSMC went public in Taiwan’s stock market in 1994. As of 2021, it has become one of the ten largest companies in the world. Most of the leading technological companies are customers of TSMC, including AMD, Apple, Intel, MediaTek, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm, to name but a few. Today TSMC controls more than half the global market for made-to-order chips. Products such as iPhones, automobiles, and supercomputers are all dependent on TSMC for making their chips. It is widely acknowledged that most of the credit goes to Morris Chang in TSMC’s success story.\nBorn in 1931, Chang had originally planned to become a writer. However, his father convinced him that engineering would be a more stable career. In 1949, Chang moved to the United States to attend Harvard University. Later, he transferred to MIT, where he earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Then in 1964, Chang earned his doctorate in electrical engineering from Stanford University. From 1958 to 1983, Chang worked for Texas Instruments, responsible for the company’s semiconductor business. To promote technological development in Taiwan, Chang founded TSMC. Under his leadership, TSMC has constructed cutting-edge plants taking the lead in research, development, and production.\nIn 1998, Businessweek selected Chang as one of the top 25 managers of the year. Later the same year, he was named by Bancamerica as one of the most significant contributors in the fifty years of semiconductor industry. In 2018, Chang formally announced his retirement. Reflecting upon the wisdom he has gained as CEO of TSMC, Chang remarked that everything in a company must constantly be made anew for that is the only way to make a difference.

若要確認文中提到的個人經歷或公司發展史是否屬實，你會建議從哪些具體的「數字（年份）」或「組織名稱」著手進行核對？當文章中出現多個學位或多間合作公司時，我們該如何確保特定的人名與這些細節之間有正確的邏輯關聯呢？

太棒了！你能精準地從長篇文章中篩選出正確資訊，這顯示你的閱讀細度非常紮實。這題的正確答案之所以是 (C)，主要是因為文章末段清楚地記載了張忠謀先生所獲得的國際肯定：1998 年 Businessweek 將他選為年度最佳經理人之一，同年 Bancamerica 也將他列為半導體產業五十年間最重要的貢獻者。這兩項具體的史實敘述，直接驗證了選項 (C) 中關於「能力與貢獻獲得兩大機構認可」的說法。
細節辨析與邏輯驗證
這類細節題的難度在於資訊的精確比對。例如選項 (A) 考驗的是基礎計算（1994 減 1987 為 7 年而非 10 年）；選項 (B) 則巧妙地混淆了「客戶」與「曾任職公司」的關係；而選項 (D) 則是常見的「學位與學校名稱錯置」陷阱。本題的鑑別度在於測試讀者是否能耐心地回歸文本，在眾多的專有名詞（如公司名、大學名）與數字中，保持冷靜並逐一核實。你能在這些細微的干擾項中做出正確判斷，表現得非常專業且細心！
