第一題題目有拼錯字 simle -> simple slao -> also
tanning salons 看成一個單位，不過問題在於「泛指」所有具備 “tanning”功能的
“salons”，而非「接受tan這個動作」的 “salons”，如一般最常見的搭配 “playing
games”。所以 tanning salon 指場所，salon + s 自然是複數概念 [1] [2] [3]。
類似搭配有 “tanning methods”[4] “tanning lotion”[5] 等。
第二題也有拼錯字。 comcerned -> concerned th -> the cosrs -> costs
這一題跟第一題概念類似，一樣可以看成一個單位。“rising”含有「進行的意味」，
搭配 energy costs，也是複數概念 [6] [7]。
[1]
The organization said tanning salons already are regulated by the state
Department of Consumer Affairs and the federal Food and Drug Administration
—regulations it called the most stringent in the nation. (Seattle Times)
[2]
Since 2003, 19 states have passed laws restricting access to tanning salons
among those under 18. (NY Times)
[3]
Cigarette vending machines and tanning salons could be banned in an attempt
to reduce the incidence of cancer in Britain, the government announced
today. (Guardian)
[4]
But what is clear is that both tanning methods expose the skin to potentially
harmful levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. (Guardian)
[5]
As summer comes to a close and we all fade back to our winter shades of pale,
two studies offer conflicting information about the impact of fake tanning—
using sunless tanning lotion, spray or even airbrush — on cancer risk.
(Time)
[6]
Rising energy costs have replaced wage pressures as a new inflation threat,
the Fed said in the report, known as the beige book for the color of its
cover. (NY Times)
[7]
Perhaps, as you describe, rising energy costs will be the determinent of
future changes in transport systems. (Economist)
希望以上對你理解有所幫助 :)
