第 10 題

📖 題組:
When talking about environmental protection, “reducing plastic” is a familiar slogan, but the threat of “microplastics” is far more dangerous. These are plastic fragments or fibers smaller than 5 millimeters. They originate 6 from intentionally manufactured for industrial use or from larger plastic waste broken down by sunlight, weathering or wave action. Surprisingly, modern fashion is a major contributor. Research indicates that synthetic fabrics, like polyester or nylon used in activewear, 7 thousands of “microfibers” during one single laundry cycle. These fibers are so tiny that they bypass wastewater treatment filters and flow directly into the ocean. Once microplastics enter the ocean, they are not mere trash but become 8 “disguised food,” causing damage to not only marine life but also humans. Recent scientific studies have detected microplastics in human placentas, blood, and lung tissue, 9 can lead to serious health problems to people. We need to remind ourselves that the ocean is not a bottomless trash can. Microplastics are a mirror 10 the consequences of our “throwaway culture.” Understanding this issue is not just about gaining knowledge. More importantly, it is about becoming conscious citizens who can mend the broken relationship between humanity and nature.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格前方的名詞「mirror(鏡子)」以及後方的名詞「consequences(後果)」,想一想「鏡子」與「呈現事物/現象」之間,最常搭配哪一個具有「映照、反映出」意涵的動詞呢?

太棒了,選 (C) reflecting 完全正確!

隱喻修辭與分詞修飾

這句話運用了生動的隱喻修辭:「微塑膠是一面映照出我們『拋棄式文化』後果的鏡子(a mirror reflecting the consequences...)」。句中的 reflecting 是現在分詞作後位修飾,修飾前方的名詞「a mirror」,動詞 reflect 本身具有「映照」與「反映」的雙重意涵,與鏡子搭配最為貼切。
