第 50 題

📖 題組:
On May 8, 1945, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill announced the end of the Second World War. He concluded his radio address with “Nothing should prevent us from celebrating Victory Day in Europe today and tomorrow!” But before Churchill responded to his own call to celebrate the victory, he turned to his cook, Georgina Landemare, and said “Without you I would not have survived the war.” This was meant in deadly earnest, for eating well was essential to the stability and well-being of the statesman. It was Churchill’s belief that one should offer the body something good, so that the soul may desire to dwell in it. ... The prime minister often invited people to dinner parties at his home. He used dining as an art to display his conversational talents and to engage in political debate, to confer with friends and to win over rivals. During the WWII, he used dining to exert his conversational skills to persuade his allies, Franklin Roosevelt and Joseph Stalin, to fight the war. Churchill used dining and the dinner table to do what could not always be done at the conference table.
According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
  • A Churchill preferred shellfish to fish.
  • B Churchill disliked traditional British dishes.
  • C Churchill found puddings and tarts irresistible.
  • D Churchill liked to end his dinner with Cheddar.

飲食偏好與細節對應

這道題目的正確答案之所以是 (A),關鍵在於文中對於邱吉爾飲食習慣的具體描述。雖然文章花了不少篇幅討論餐桌外交的政治功能,但文中也明確提到了他個人的味蕾偏好。在閱讀時,若能注意到他對「甲殼類海鮮(shellfish)」與「魚類(fish)」之間存有明確的偏好排序,就能迅速在選項中做出判斷。這印證了邱吉爾「對身體好一點,靈魂才想住在裡面」的哲學,不僅是為了社交,更是他個人生活品質的堅持。
