flour noun / verb 麵粉；在食物上裹麵粉・floured verb (past tense / past participle) 裹麵粉（過去式／過去分詞）・flouring verb (present participle) 裹麵粉（現在分詞）・flours verb (third-person singular present) 裹麵粉（第三人稱單數現在式）
四選一
The kitchen assistant must ____ the fish before the chef cooks it.
看答案
flour
情態助動詞 must 後接原形動詞，所以選 flour。floured 是過去式或過去分詞，flouring 是現在分詞形式，flours 是第三人稱單數現在式，都不能直接接在此處的 must 後。
同義改寫
The bakery has enough flour for today's bread orders. → The bakery has a sufficient supply of flour for today's bread orders.
enough flour 與 a sufficient supply of flour 都表示麵粉存量足以應付今天的麵包訂單。
The chef asked the assistant to flour the fish before cooking it. → The chef asked the assistant to coat the fish with a thin layer of flour before cooking it.
動詞 flour 在此就是替魚裹上一層薄薄的麵粉；改寫保留了動作、對象與烹調前的時間順序。
