本題考情境字 prepare 的用法

The team must ____ the room before the workshop starts at ten o'clock.

  • prepare
  • preparation
  • preparatory
  • prepared
看答案

prepare

情態助動詞 must 後接原形動詞 prepare。preparation 是名詞,preparatory 是形容詞,prepared 是過去式或過去分詞,均不符合此處句型。本題考的是情境字 prepare 的詞形,不是 o'clock 的衍生詞。

同義改寫

The new employees will meet their trainer at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. → The new employees will meet their trainer at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow.
nine o'clock tomorrow morning 與 9:00 a.m. tomorrow 都表示明天上午九點整。
Please have the slides ready by two o'clock this afternoon. → Please have the slides ready by 2:00 p.m. today.
two o'clock this afternoon 與 2:00 p.m. today 表示同一時間;保留 by,也保留最晚須於該時間準備完成的意思。
