  1. 1When stepping out of the aircraft, he fell vertically before opening his ＿＿＿ .

    1. (A) paradise
    2. (B) palace
    3. (C) parachute
    4. (D) parliament

    正解：(C)

    逐題詳解（免費試讀）

    ✅ (C) parachute 是「降落傘」；句意「他跳出機艙後垂直下墜，才打開降落傘」，符合跳傘的動作順序 fall → open the parachute。

    ❌ (A) paradise 是「天堂、樂園」，抽象地點名詞，無法用 open 開啟。

    ❌ (B) palace 是「宮殿」，與跳傘情境無關。

    ❌ (D) parliament 是「國會、議會」，政治機構，語意完全不合。

    📚 出處：英文字彙；para- 字首相關單字辨析（parachute／paradise／parliament）。

    1. (A) appealing
    2. (B) concealing
    3. (C) fulfilling
    4. (D) revealing

    正解：(D)

    逐題詳解（免費試讀）

    ✅ (D) reveal 是「顯露、使露出」；冰在湖緣裂開，因而露出底下融化的雪，thereby + V-ing 表示前一動作造成的結果。

    ❌ (A) appeal 是「吸引、懇求」，常接 to，不能用來接「融雪」當受詞。

    ❌ (B) conceal 是「隱藏」，語意與「冰裂開」造成的結果相反。

    ❌ (C) fulfill 是「實現、履行」，受詞多為願望、承諾或條件，不能接實物的雪。

    📚 出處：英文字彙；reveal／conceal 反義字辨析與 thereby + V-ing 用法。

    4. (D) original

    正解：(C)

    逐題詳解（免費試讀）

    ✅ (C) occasional 是「偶爾的、不定期的」；the occasional bit of housework 指「偶爾做一點家事」，呼應後半句「這樣我有時候可以休息一下」。

    ❌ (A) occupational 是「職業的」，如 occupational safety（職業安全），與家事無關。

    ❌ (B) observational 是「觀察的」，指以觀察為方法，如 observational study。

    ❌ (D) original 是「最初的、原創的」，無法說明做家事的頻率。

    📚 出處：英文字彙；形容詞 occasional 的頻率語意與拼寫相近字辨析。

  46. 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. Born 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. In 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.

    1. (A) To offer solutions to the extreme dependence of leading companies on TSMC.
    2. (B) To describe the success story of TSMC and Morris Chang’s influential role in it.
