✦✦✦《作業機器解密行動》驚險續集✦✦✦✦✦風波未平，危機再起✦✦✦九月，升上六年級，展開新學期。十月，迷上組裝及發射火箭。十一月，末日教派「峽谷教」成立。十二月，另一臺作業機器祕密問世。 山姆、茱蒂、凱西與布倫頓曾經以為一切都結束了。作業機器已被摧毀，風波落幕，各自回歸平凡生活。直到布倫頓發現，那顆驅動作業機器的關鍵晶片竟還存在――而且，有人正伺機奪取！科技讓人擁抱方便，也能帶來不可預期的毀滅…… 六年級導師是墨菲先生，他兼具退伍軍官的威嚴、NASA工作的傲人經歷，以及鼓勵學生擁抱生活中各種學習的熱情；羅尼．泰奧特瓦基始終看不慣這四人組，並且是個隱藏的電腦高手；理查．米爾納仍舊不死心的瘋狂寄電子郵件，幾乎利慾薰心。這一回，誰將捲入這場失控風暴的中心？ 為了揭開埋藏百年的祕密寶藏，一群人積極展開冒險行動，深入峽谷底部探尋真相。然而，探險之路並不是康莊大道――他們將一步步走向更深的謎團與抉擇。會不會重蹈覆轍？該如何承擔後果？當意外無預警降臨，六年級的孩子們即將面對真正的選擇與成長。「我有時會想，有沒有可能發明一臺時間機器。你在生命中的任何時刻候犯了錯，都可以倒回去幾秒鐘，把這錯誤抹掉，就像是用鉛筆上頭附的橡皮擦，讓一切從重頭來過。」 本書透過特殊的筆錄形式、多重觀點與倒敘筆法，帶領讀者直視科技與道德的界線、真實與謊言的模糊地帶――一段挑戰思辨與勇氣的成長旅程，由此展開。┄ ┄ ┄ ┄ ┄ ┄◎什麼是探究式閱讀？ 探究式閱讀強調「主動提問」而非「被動接收」。在閱讀時，讀者透過觀察、提問、假設、驗證與反思，逐步建構自己的理解。這是一種「歷程導向」而非「答案導向」的閱讀方式，每個人都能依自身經驗擷取訊息、整合解釋，適用於各種文本。◎為什麼「作業機器」系列適合練習探究式閱讀？ 本系列顛覆一般小說的敘事方法，沒有全知視角，僅以「第一人稱」的警局筆錄形式呈現每個人物的所見、所知、所想；一開場警長便宣布「已結案」，全書採倒敘筆法，讓所有人物分別回憶數月的事發經過。在陳述供詞的過程中，他們可能避重就輕、情緒激動、提及生活中大大小小的事，讀者必須在閱讀過程中保持敏銳觀察力、反覆思索，才能逐步看清事件的全貌。◎邀請您參與這場閱讀冒險！ 「超級晶片會被不當濫用嗎？」「他們為了什麼而拚命組裝火箭？」疑惑驅使人探尋線索，一頁頁耐心推敲，甚至與他人分享討論。這本書沒有艱澀難懂的解謎
