看答案
cashier
decided to 後須接原形動詞，因此選 cashier，意為「撤職」。cashiered 是過去式或過去分詞；cashiers 是第三人稱單數動詞或複數名詞；cashiering 是 -ing 形式，皆不符合此不定詞結構。這裡使用來源的撤職動詞義。
同義改寫
The cashier at the bookstore handed me a receipt. → The employee handling customer payments at the bookstore handed me a receipt.
在書店結帳情境中，cashier 就是負責處理顧客付款的員工，改寫保留其工作職責。
The army cashiered the officer for falsifying inspection records. → The army dismissed the officer from military service for falsifying inspection records.
在此軍職情境中，cashiered 表示因不當行為遭撤職；dismissed ... from military service 保留撤職結果與原因，不推論法律程序。
