恭喜你精準地掌握了詞義的語境搭配！在第 42 題中，你選擇 ready for 是非常正確且自然的判斷。這段文字正在討論玉米的生長週期，提到玉米筍大約需要五十天的時間，才能達到「可以被採收」的狀態。ready for harvest 在英文中是一個常見且道地的用法，用來描述某事物已經準備就緒，可以進入下一個階段或動作。
語境邏輯與詞義辨析
這題的難度切入點在於考驗學生是否能根據「主詞性質」與「生長時間」進行邏輯推論。選項 (B) good at（擅長於...）與 (D) busy with（忙碌於...）通常用於描述有意志的行為者，對於植物來說並不合理；而 (C) known as（以...身份聞名）雖然在文法上可行，但放在這句強調生長時間長短的語境中，並無法銜接前後文的邏輯。因此，唯有表示「準備好進行某事」的 (A) 最能精確表達出作物成熟、待收割的意涵。這題屬於基礎難度，只要能掌握住「時間週期」與「作物狀態」的關聯，就能輕鬆拿分。
