詞彙 Vocabulary

共 10 題／每題選出最適合題意的字詞
請由四個選項中，選出一個最適合句意的字或詞。
1The recipe asks you to the eggs and sugar together until the mixture turns pale and fluffy.
Aseparate
Bfreeze
Cspill
Dblend
✔ 正確答案：(D)　blend
中譯這道食譜要你把蛋和糖混合攪打在一起，直到麵糊變得淺色又蓬鬆。
解析together until the mixture turns fluffy（混在一起直到蓬鬆）表示要「混合攪拌 blend」。separate 分開、spill 灑出、freeze 冷凍皆與攪打動作不合。
單字blend 混合、攪拌、mixture 混合物、fluffy 蓬鬆的
2The soup tasted rather , so the chef added a little more salt and pepper.
Aspicy
Bbland
Cbitter
Dsour
✔ 正確答案：(B)　bland
中譯這鍋湯嚐起來相當淡而無味，所以主廚多加了一點鹽和胡椒。
解析由 added more salt and pepper（加鹽和胡椒）可推知湯太「淡而無味 bland」。spicy 辣、bitter 苦、sour 酸都不需要靠加鹽來補救。
單字bland 淡而無味的、chef 主廚、pepper 胡椒
3Fresh vegetables should be kept in the fridge; otherwise they will within a few days.
Aspoil
Bbloom
Cshine
Dgather
✔ 正確答案：(A)　spoil
中譯新鮮蔬菜應放進冰箱保存，否則幾天內就會腐壞。
解析otherwise（否則）與 kept in the fridge 相對，暗示不冷藏就會「腐壞 spoil」。bloom 開花、shine 發光、gather 聚集皆與食物變質無關。
單字spoil 腐壞、變質、fridge 冰箱、fresh 新鮮的
4This restaurant is famous for its menu, offering dishes from Thailand, Italy, and Mexico.
Anarrow
Bdiverse
Cempty
Dprivate
✔ 正確答案：(B)　diverse
中譯這家餐廳以其多元的菜單聞名，供應來自泰國、義大利和墨西哥的料理。
解析dishes from Thailand, Italy, and Mexico（來自各國的菜色）說明菜單「多元 diverse」。narrow 狹窄、empty 空的、private 私人的皆不符。
單字diverse 多元的、多樣的、menu 菜單、dish 菜餚
5Before serving, the cake with powdered sugar to make it look more attractive.
Aswallow
Bsprinkle
Cchop
Dboil
✔ 正確答案：(B)　sprinkle
中譯上桌前，在蛋糕上撒些糖粉，讓它看起來更吸引人。
解析with powdered sugar…look more attractive（用糖粉裝飾外觀）搭配「撒 sprinkle」。swallow 吞下、chop 切碎、boil 煮沸皆不合裝飾動作。
單字sprinkle 撒、灑、powdered 粉狀的、attractive 吸引人的
6The bakery's bread sells out quickly because it contains no artificial and stays fresh naturally.
Arumors
Btickets
Cengines
Dflavors
✔ 正確答案：(D)　flavors
中譯這家麵包店的麵包很快就賣光，因為它不含人工香料，卻能自然保鮮。
解析artificial ____（人工的…）搭配食物語境，指人工「香料 flavors」。tickets 票、engines 引擎、rumors 謠言皆與麵包成分無關。
單字flavor 香料、風味、artificial 人工的、bakery 麵包店
7Many young people now prefer a diet, eating mostly vegetables, beans, and fruit instead of meat.
Aplain
Bfrozen
Cplant-based
Dsalty
✔ 正確答案：(C)　plant-based
中譯許多年輕人現在偏好以植物為主的飲食，主要吃蔬菜、豆類和水果，而非肉類。
解析eating vegetables, beans, and fruit instead of meat（吃蔬果豆類取代肉）正是「植物性 plant-based」飲食。plain 樸素、frozen 冷凍、salty 鹹皆非重點。
單字plant-based 以植物為主的、diet 飲食、bean 豆子
8The waiter kindly the vegetarian dishes when we told him we did not eat meat.
Aignored
Brecommended
Crefused
Dhid
✔ 正確答案：(B)　recommended
中譯當我們告訴服務生我們不吃肉時，他親切地推薦了素食料理。
解析kindly（親切地）與 we did not eat meat（不吃肉）搭配，服務生「推薦 recommended」素食。ignored 忽視、refused 拒絕、hid 藏起皆與 kindly 矛盾。
單字recommend 推薦、vegetarian 素食的、waiter 服務生
9If you leave the meat in the oven too long, it will become dry and to chew.
Atough
Beasy
Csoft
Djuicy
✔ 正確答案：(A)　tough
中譯如果你把肉放在烤箱裡太久，它會變得又乾又難咀嚼。
解析dry and ____ to chew（又乾又…咀嚼）指烤過頭的肉「硬 tough」。soft 軟、juicy 多汁、easy 容易皆與 dry（乾）不搭。
單字tough 硬的、難嚼的、chew 咀嚼、oven 烤箱
10To reduce food waste, the café donates its bread to a local shelter every evening.
Aleftover
Braw
Cexpensive
Dimported
✔ 正確答案：(A)　leftover
中譯為了減少食物浪費，這家咖啡館每晚把賣剩的麵包捐給當地收容所。
解析reduce food waste（減少浪費）與 donates（捐贈）搭配，指捐出「剩餘的 leftover」麵包。raw 生的、expensive 昂貴、imported 進口皆不合減廢語境。
單字leftover 剩餘的、donate 捐贈、shelter 收容所

請閱讀短文，並由四個選項中選出最適合每個空格的答案。
Passage 1
The Rise of Street Food

Street food has become one of the most exciting parts of travel. In busy night markets, visitors can 11 dozens of tasty snacks for very little money. Because the dishes are cooked right in front of you, everything tastes wonderfully 12. Street food also lets travelers experience the true 13 of a country, since many recipes are passed down through families. Of course, hungry tourists should 14 stalls that look clean and busy, as popular stands usually serve safer food. In short, a simple paper plate of noodles can 15 a memory that lasts a lifetime.

Questions 11–15
11
Awaste
Bignore
Csample
Dhide
✔ 正確答案：(C)　sample
解析dozens of tasty snacks for little money（花少錢吃很多小吃）指「品嚐 sample」。ignore 忽視、waste 浪費、hide 藏皆不合。
12
Afresh
Bstale
Cfrozen
Ddull
✔ 正確答案：(A)　fresh
解析cooked right in front of you（現場現做）自然「新鮮 fresh」。stale 不新鮮、frozen 冷凍、dull 乏味皆矛盾。
13
Aprice
Bweather
Cculture
Dweight
✔ 正確答案：(C)　culture
解析many recipes are passed down through families（食譜家族相傳）體現一國「文化 culture」。price 價格、weather 天氣、weight 重量皆不合。
14
Abreak
Bavoid
Cforget
Dchoose
✔ 正確答案：(D)　choose
解析stalls that look clean and busy（乾淨忙碌的攤位）應「選擇 choose」；後句說熱門攤較安全，支持此意。avoid 反而相反。
15
Acopy
Bdestroy
Cborrow
Dcreate
✔ 正確答案：(D)　create
解析a memory that lasts a lifetime（一輩子的回憶）搭配「創造 create」。destroy 破壞、borrow 借、copy 複製皆不合。
全文中譯街頭小吃已成為旅行中最令人興奮的部分之一。在繁忙的夜市裡，遊客可以用很少的錢品嚐數十種美味小吃。由於菜餚是在你面前現做的，一切嚐起來都無比新鮮。街頭小吃也讓旅人體驗一個國家真正的文化，因為許多食譜是家族代代相傳下來的。當然，飢餓的觀光客應該選擇看起來乾淨又忙碌的攤位，因為熱門的攤子通常供應較安全的食物。簡而言之，一盤簡單的紙盤麵條，就能創造一段一輩子難忘的回憶。
Passage 2
Why Breakfast Matters

Many people skip breakfast because they are too busy in the morning. However, doctors warn that this habit may not be 16 for your health. After a long night's sleep, the body needs fuel to work well. A good breakfast can 17 your energy and help you concentrate at school or work. Studies also show that students who eat in the morning tend to 18 better on tests. The meal does not have to be large; a bowl of oatmeal or some fruit is 19. So even on rushed days, try to eat something instead of leaving your stomach 20.

Questions 16–20
16
Acheap
Bstrange
Cgood
Dfamous
✔ 正確答案：(C)　good
解析warn…may not be ____ for your health（警告對健康不…）指「好 good」。strange 奇怪、cheap 便宜、famous 有名皆不合健康語境。
17
Alower
Bwaste
Cboost
Dhide
✔ 正確答案：(C)　boost
解析與 help you concentrate（幫助專心）並列的正面效果，是「提升 boost」活力。lower 降低相反。
18
Afail
Bperform
Csleep
Drefuse
✔ 正確答案：(B)　perform
解析perform better on tests（考試表現較好）為固定搭配，呼應早餐的好處。fail 失敗、sleep 睡、refuse 拒絕皆不合。
19
Awrong
Bempty
Clate
Denough
✔ 正確答案：(D)　enough
解析does not have to be large（不必豐盛）後接一碗燕麥就「足夠 enough」。empty 空、late 晚、wrong 錯皆不合。
20
Aempty
Bfull
Copen
Dwarm
✔ 正確答案：(A)　empty
解析eat something instead of leaving your stomach ____（吃點東西而非讓胃…）指「空著 empty」。full 飽相反。
全文中譯許多人因為早上太忙而不吃早餐。然而，醫生警告這個習慣可能對你的健康不好。經過一夜長眠後，身體需要燃料才能好好運作。一頓好的早餐能提升你的活力，並幫助你在學校或工作時專心。研究也顯示，早上有進食的學生在考試中往往表現較佳。這一餐不必很豐盛；一碗燕麥粥或一些水果就足夠了。所以即使在匆忙的日子裡，也試著吃點東西，而不要讓你的胃空著。

The Problem of Food Waste

Around the world, nearly one-third of all food produced is thrown away every year. This waste happens at every stage, from farms and stores to our own kitchens. When food rots in landfills, it also produces gases that harm the environment.

The good news is that small changes can make a big difference. Planning meals before shopping helps people buy only what they need. Storing food properly keeps it fresh longer, and leftovers can be turned into new dishes. Some restaurants now donate extra food to charities instead of throwing it out. If everyone takes a few simple steps, we can save both money and the planet.
